according to information gathered by information brokerz,
The Expendables is a 2010 American ensemble action-war film written by David Callaham and Sylvester Stallone,
and directed by Stallone. Filming began on March 28, 2009, in Rio de Janeiro, New Orleans,
and Los Angeles, and the film was released on August 13, 2010. It pays tribute to the blockbuster action films of
the 1980s and early 1990s, and stars an array of action veterans from those decades, including Stallone himself,
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Dolph Lundgren, Mickey Rourke, and Jet Li, as well as more recent stars such
as Jason Statham, Terry Crews, Randy Couture, and Steve Austin.
The film recieved mixed reviews, some particularly negative,[1] but it achieved commercial success soon after its
release. Brandon Gray of Box Office Mojo has stated that the film "took a commanding lead in its debut".
The film consumed a budget of about 82million dollars, yeah! i mean 82million dollars
However, the film has been criticized of been loaded with old school actors whom might not been able to impress our current generation.
According to www.theexaminer.com, "It is the kind of movie critics love to skewer, pure and simple. It is as defenseless as a turtle crossing the highway. But it is also Sylvester Stallone’s stock in trade and what critics think is completely irrelevant to a movie patron who looks up at the marquee trying to decide where to plunk down a hard earned ten dollar bill."
Conclusion:
Well, i must say a big congratulations to everyone involved with creating this movie. The .
The cast is fantastic!
The budget for the movie is more than ok!
The location is great!
production was tight
I beleive the director has small work to do working with the big boys(this guyz know thier stuff)!!!!!!!!!!!!
And now, the movie is officailly out!!!
Go get your!
Do you have a old schnapps bottle? If so, it may be worth $25,000!
This ancient schnapps bottle which carries the imprint of three pence coin or two eagles by the side or all over it, sells currently at $25,000 per one.
But I have a few questions to ask. Why are these only and specific bottles in such a high demand? What use are they put to? Why are people going round in Africa searching for them to buy? Why are they offering such a huge sum of money for an empty schnapps bottle? Will the bottle not be put to a dubious usage that can fetch the buyer ten times the amount of money paid for it? What usage can it be? Don’t you think this is a scam?
There is the slightest truth in every rumor. Back here in Ghana , a friend has told me how expensive those empty bottles are. He said if I could produce one, I could get a $100,000. I wondered and said, "what nonsense that is. How on earth can an empty schnapps bottle sell at that price?" He swore that one could easily get three to four times that much if one of such bottle was taken to big cities. Be that as it may, what is so special about the bottle? When that friend of mine did tell me about the bottle and the price involved, I naively told him I was sure anyone who had drunk from that bottle would have their descendants suffer from some harm of some sort should the buyers intend them for usage.
Let us find those buying the bottles at that exorbitant price to determine whether it is that expensive and probably find out what they would be using it for….
My first research was on forums I found someone whom was offering $5000 dollars for this type of bottle(can you imagine)..He even added his phone number to his message saying: “This is a serious deal”
I could tell how desperate the man needed the stuff but his price was too low as compared to what a friend told me.
Further research and investigations made me to find out that these old schnapps bottle could contain red mercury(one of the most expensive element in the world).
According to Wikipedia,
“Red mercury is a fictitious substance of uncertain composition purportedly used in the creation of nuclear bomb, as well as a variety of unrelated weapons systems. Samples obtained from arrested would-be terrorists invariably consisted of nothing more than various red dyes or powders of little value, which some suspect was being sold as part of a campaign intended to flush out potential nuclear smugglers. The hoax was first reported in 1979 and was commonly discussed in the media in the 1990s, with prices for this substance as high as $500,000 per kilogram being reported.”
Wow!! $500,000 per kilogram. Hm mm I also recall a friend asking me if I could get him some red mercury. When I asked him what he would be using it for, he said “oh! Nothing just for my personal usage”
Very funny!! Right?
Now the possibilities of having red mercury in old schnapps bottle led to my discovery of the possibilities of having mercury in old sewing machine.
yes, i mean the old sewing machine. like the one above...
According to Anne Marie’s article on red mercury,
In Saudi Arabia, people are currently rushing to buy old Singer sewing machines based on the belief that they might contain red mercury. No one knows for sure where the rumor started, much less the more curious rumor that you can hold your mobile phone up to a sewing machine to somehow detect the presence of red mercury. The story goes on, you will lose your signal if you hold your phone up to the needle of a sewing machine that contains red mercury.
What is red mercury? It's a fabled substance that might be used to produce nuclear weapons, ward off evil spirits, or help you find treasure, depending on who you ask. There is no real proof that red mercury exists, except perhaps as cinnabar or vermilion (HgS) or mercury(II) iodide, either of which you can purchase sans sewing machine for a much lower price. Still... if you have your old Singer up for auction at eBay, it might fetch a higher price than you were expecting. If you're considering buying an old Singer, save your pennies until after the scam has run its course.
Interesting!!!
Conclusion:
Although we have not had a personal experience on the sales of this product, there are some element of truth on this issue. Since both the old schnapps bottle and sewing machines are termed “antique” and every antique material is worth some good cash.
So if your forefathers left empty schnapps bottles or old sewing machines in their old houses, do not under look or underestimate their usefulness, consider it as an opportunity since there is a scramble for such product at the moment.
Howbeit, this is not to say we should trust everyone offering to buy, personally, I would suggest that you first of all test such product, do more research on the marketability then sign up for well known e-commerce site like e-bay or amazon, there you can display your product.
