The London Daily Mail (and Drudge) note that 60-year-old Sylvester Stallone has hired a 30-year-old body double for the new Rambo movie, but the real news may be that Sly is continuing the Christianity theme in his films:

In the new movie Rambo finds himself recruited by a group of Christian human rights missionaries to protect them against pirates, during a humanitarian aid delivery to the persecuted Karen people of Burma.

After some of the missionaries are taken prisoner by sadistic Burmese soldiers, Rambo gets a second impossible job: to assemble a team of mercenaries to rescue the surviving relief workers.

That ought to interest Doug Bandow, among others.
