Fun Stuff


* James Brolin was attached to play the Col. Samuel Trautman role after Richard Crenna died, but the role was written out of the script

* Stallone originally set out to make this film before Rocky Balboa (2006), but Rocky was green-lighted by MGM, and he had to put Rambo on hold

* This is the first Rambo film to be directed by Sylvester Stallone

* This is the first Rambo film without a score composed by Jerry Goldsmith

* During its long development process, 'Rambo' went through a number of story premises. One un-produced script featured Rambo living a quiet life with wife and child, until white supremacists kidnap his family. Another script found Rambo trying to stop a hostage situation at the United Nations, where he is working as a diplomat, when terrorists (including Rambo's adopted son) take hold of the UN headquarters in New York

* Has a kill count of 236, the most for any Rambo film

* This is the first Rambo film in the series that does not feature a companion novel written by Rambo's creator David Morrell. Morell wrote the novel "First Blood" on which that movie was based, and subsequently wrote novelizations of the 'Rambo: First Blood Part II' and 'Rambo III'. No novelization has been published for 'Rambo

* Ted Kotcheff who directed First Blood (1982), the original of the Rambo series, acts as a technical consultant on this particular installment

* Julie Benz was cast as Sarah because Sylvester Stallone was a big fan of the TV show "Dexter" (2006) in which she stars in

* Although banned in Myanmar (formally Burma) by the military government, bootlegs of the movie are a hot item. Burmese Freedom Fighters have even adopted dialogue from the movie (most notably "Live for nothing, or die for something";) as rallying points and battle cries. "That, to me," said Sylvester Stallone, "is one of the proudest moments I've ever had in film

* Averages 2.59 killings per minute


Crew or equipment visible: During the ending gun battle scene when the camera switches to view the right side of En-joo (Tim Kang) you see a shot of the camera equipment behind him. (This is when he climbs up the steps to the upper tower for cover and better shooting position)

Encoder notes

Normal filters, BAD interlacing on the R5 DVD9 which led to a few issues
with the rip of the video and also cuased audio sync issues with the claimed
5.1 english audio

Dealt with the interlacing , then after spending time with the 5.1 from the DVD
after i increased the volume, I noticed a lot of parts were the audio
just didnt say "i am true 5.1" as many of you most likely found out to the
pain of your ears, it was bloody awful. So used the audio from the
Rambo.2008.WORKPRINT.X264-NOGRP, which even that it had many many sync
issues which after 256 fixes and 4 days of sorting i hope i have fixed it all
I have adjusted the audio in parts and thought it was good enough for AC3 5.1

The audio has been tested on my 2.1 pc system and sounds nice loud and crisp
but on my 2 channel tv its quite low....But higher than the original 5.1 audio
from the DVD

Oh and i did the 5.1 becuase there ar those lucky ones with the systems, so
do tell us what the sounds like with you

ADDED NOTES

This took longer to get to you due to not having a internet connection due to
issues with our line and not haveing my quad core machine up due to hardware
failure, mainly ocz memory and seagate 750gb sata HDD that wouldnt stop clicking
and scratches...yet passed every health test, but failed a stress test 

Jumper, never happened becuase of audio discontueities, which all credit to DR HO
wasnt really his fault becuase at least he had the balls to do what a lot of
Groups and im talking scene groups just dont do these days compared to 7 years ago

AVP2.....well wasnt that just a pain in the arse . I have no idea why doinga rip
of this was causing s many issues but it did . Much of the time even when i was
doing clear rips ensureing all the scenes were there, when it came to loading it
in many applications only 2 frames showed up and even the audio would be messed up

And finally

I have named it RAMBO becuase thats ofically its title, not rambo 4 as that was one of
the numerous work title names
