Bollywood featuring Stallone and Terminator? it seems me it would like Mother India and Joker dancing Abba and raining bullets all over the place...is it worth seeing?

Hector Lopez, Lima, PERU

To the people who don't know what Bollywood is, stick your head out of the window and look around once in a while. Just as the #1 sport in the world is soccer and not football or wrestling, Bollywood is a far more creative, industrious and profitable film juggernaut than Hollywood can dream of.

Indians in Hollywood? Tonto say, "Me been there, done that, wear t-shirt."

Pray tell, what's all this have to do with George W. Bush?

Wait...

Bollywood....errr....Hollywood....errr....Stallone.....errr...Arnold....
errr...make movie.....George W. Bush....I get it!!....No, I don't get it.
Sorry.

Ted , CA,

intellectuals will say bollywood is just song and dance but the latest films are much more. in a few years the films have gained credibility and i would imagine soon we wil be seeing more collaborations with the west and even blockbuster record breaking hits.

Udo of Melbourne. Are you nuts? Stallone's Rocky won him an Oscar for best screenplay, his films, whether you like them or not, have made billions and he is one of the most recognisable stars on the planet. And talking about "never was" have you seen the run of crappy Australian films lately?

We have been making movies in Hollywood for 100 years. The fact that some of these movies will be financed by foreign investors is fine, as long as the foreign investors don't get involved in the creative process.

Mark, Los Angeles , America

Bollywood movies are more about entertainment than art. And what's not to like? Great music, good production values, beautiful women, gorgeous costuming and staging. If anything, Bollywood films are more like classic Hollywood musicals from the 30's and 40's. Rent a few, put on subtitles, enjoy.

Carlos, Los Angeles, USA

Anyone who has the money to hire these guys will find them to be available. If the Indian public will buy the film, that sounds great. But Hollywood movies, especially Spielberg ones, have gotten so bad, one wonders how they will make a penny.

Theresa, Los Angeles, USA

I feel that a lot of these comments down below are critical of the Bollywood industry, which has served the world of its brilliantly made films for years and will continue to do so for many years to come. I also think the collaboration of Bollywood and Hollywood stars is absolutely great!

How Much Is Sly and Arnie making for the pic?.

George, Livermore, usa

Talk about Bollywood,Sly,Arnie or whatever and these crazy Liberals cant help bashing Bush about anything Geez enough already.Hey Guys..He Won.He got whatever he wanted.He sat in the most powerful chair for 8 yrs nomatter what you have said or tried to do to him..Get over it..Eat yur heart out.

George, Livermore, usa

I just can't imagine Sly and the Gubernator holding hands and singing, the way men usually do in those God-awful Bollywood films.
Let's be serious: if Bollywood wants any success in the US, they must start making films that a straight audience can actually enjoy.

Haile, Cleveland, USA

"latest Rambo film disappointed at the box office"???

This statement is based on what exactly? The movie grossed over $112 M worldwide on a budget of $50 M, and has been doing very well on DVD sales.

Could it be the author couldn't resist a snarky comment sourced from personal feelings?

Rich, Minneapolis, USA

Only Jazz aficionados can appreciate Bollywood movies because the script is improvised while the movie is being shot!

T. Varadaraj, Boca Raton, FL, USA

Biggest ever budget...£11m !!! Wonder why mainstream US film producers can't make a movie with Stallone and Arnie for that kind of money.

I don't think Bollywood needs Hollywood or the US market anyway although it is kind of fun to use a couple of US names.

Stuart, Halifax, West Yorkshire

To Roger Nivsky who seems to enjoy asking what Bollywood is. You are, obviously, on the Internet. Try looking it up.

Bryan, Enid, Ok, USA

I think there are some very ignorant comments below. Bollywood cinema is not just about singing and dancing. There are some excellent critically acclaimed movies which becuase they do not appeal to the mass market are not widely known. See Apparahan or Yuva for some real insight into Bollywood

Kirtan, London, UK

im sure Prez Bush will luv Bollywood films..he probably has a drawer full of them in his basement. His actions certainly look like they are Bollywood inspired.

"What the heck is Bollywood, and why should I care?" -- Roger Nivsky, Port Orange, Florida

Bollywood is in India next to China they both have "WMD's" wana ask your buddy Bush to go Invade?

The ignorance of Americans hurt the world. Bush didn't know where Iraq was on the map before he invaded.

jayil, london, uk

I was so excited when I read the first three sentences...It seemed for a second the gods of Action movies had finally converged to create the ultimate action movie...but then I read the discription for the movie...I'm sure not that many people want to see a movie like that...

Aaron, Los Angeles, USA

Bollywood filom script: man meets woman, they start dancing and the neighbors join in. Then he goes to work and meets Rambo. Everybody is so excited and immediately start dancing.
Later he pretends to kiss the woman, but they only rub cheeks. His long lost friend arrives. They start dancing. End.

EllenO, Toronto, Canada

Perhaps they could invite our Louiisana Governor for a cameo in the movie. Louisiana is called Hollywood of the south and Jendall is the first governor of Indian descent.
Give me a call we'll have lunch.

Sean, Galvez , USA

Indian film market is difficult for American companies to break into? See Miss Shedde, as long as there are movies like Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones etc, there should be no problems. I worry that it is the Bollywood song and dance that would find hard to make it in USA.

RJ Padbatan, New York City, USA

Roger, you're better off not knowing. Wasted money on something that will flop big time. Like the lies that Indians are better educated and skilled, no one is fooled. It'll be as bad as the tech support people you get stuck with when your call is routed to Bangalore.

Marie, Boston, MA US

Stallone is great!

Fred X, Phoenix, USA Arizona

difficult market to crack? what does he mean exactly - he deems bollywood "too strong a culture", but apparently hollywood isn't. Or does he mean the "cultural economics" of film making? he's on crack if he thinks the typical bollywood film will work in the US mainstream market.

chris, bernardsville, usa

What is "Bollywood"??????????

R, Richmond,

U Go Mr Stallone...a real down to earth person!!

Fred Smith, Reno, USA

Barf! Another bad movie will bite the dust....

Andrea, Shelton, USA

What the heck is Bollywood, and why should I care?

Roger Nivsky, Port Orange, Florida,

"Bollywood might be more successful in America"? Only if they can actually make some films of quality that aren't ultra-cheesy musicals, Rom-coms and/or outright rip-offs of American films, as currently almost all of them are.

George, Idaho, USA

"Never was"? Are you kidding?

Joe Schmoe, Hollywoood, USA

Stallone a never was? How many people can say they created two separate iconic characters recognized by 99.9% of the population. Then there's the Oscar and the fact he was the biggest star in the world circa '85.

Ken, Hockessin, Delaware

Just another "never was" trying to elevate himself to a "has been"
