The Expendables 4 Filming This Year?

We know that The Expendables 4 is happening. why they are not making a bigger deal of it, I don’t know.  Maybe there’ll be some changes?  Anyway, what we haven’t known is when the movie will start filming.  A new rumour suggests that it could start as early as this year.

I think I’d call that optimistic, but who knows.  Avi Lerner gotta eat.  I haven’t heard anything about this movie heading to Bulgaria this year (I have a solid contact there who worked on The Expendables 3), but then again there have been rumblings about a fourth movie at least partially heading to China.  Will they have this movie circulate around Jackie Chan?

One thing is for sure, bridges have been burned.  They need to win back fan trust and no amount of butt kissing from cultist stalkers on the internet will change that.  I have a good suggestion – start killing off Expendables, Terry Crews would be a good start.  Don’t pussy out on us.  So what do you think?  Is there room for potential in The Expendables 4?  Or are we going down a route that leads to The Expendables 8, with 82 second Mr. Church cameo?
