Bruce has to be getting old, how many more action movies can he make?
I do want to see this one even though time travel movies always have flaws.

Another He has to be getting old, so I don't know how many more action movies he can make.
Stallone is even older than him and he's still making action movies!

Nope, he is referring to the "not enough boobies" clause of time travel. I mean really, how many movies about time travel feature lots of good breasts?

Somehow that old gag from Airplane! for 'Rocky XXXVIII' doesn't seem so far fetched anymore . . .

I'm not sure I understand what he is doing, going back into the past and killing someone from the future back in the past or going and killing someone in the past so they won't be in the future, either way one can imagine how many paradoxes there would be.

He's a guy from the past (our present) that kills people sent from the future so that the guys
in the future can't be prosecuted for their deaths.
Then one day his future self gets sent back for him to kill and he fails.
Now the guys in the future have ordered his death and ordered others like him (loopers that are from the past) to finish him.
The fact that the people who do the killing are from the past removes the paradox issue as even if
they kill their future selves it wont create any conflict, unlike the future self killing his past self.

My daughter's nick name is Loopers, so this movie is based on some fact, they must have come from the future and stole my name, buggers. Same thing happened with my son's nick name 'Back to the future Part 3' Ahh no not really but my daughter's nick name is Loopers.

He has been in quite a bit of good stuff over the past few years. I hope he continues his career as he might just be one of the power players in future action movies if he plays his cards right.
