Did you know
• The Bruce Willis look-a-like in the film, Eric Buarque, also played Willis' stunt double in Live Free or Die Hard (2007).
• The Expendables impersonators who all met on set have remained close and have worked on other projects since, calling themselves "The Expandables."
• (at around 7 mins) President Snowballs admits that he came up with the idea of the Starving Games after watching The Running Man (1987) and Battle Royale (2000). This is a humorous reference to the accusation against Suzanne Collins that she copied the idea of The Hunger Games (2012) from the novel "Battle Royale."
User reviews
Typical Friedberg & Seltzer fare
You won't burn any calories watching this laughter-free "spoof comedy"
Better than their previous attempts, but still far from good
