So you make a fansite for one of your heroes, Sylvester Stallone, and you’re living under the delusion that you think the man isn’t reading your site? WRONG!!! Stallone, the man himself, writes an open letter to fans for the “Stallone Zone” message board sayin’ that he does read the posts in the message boards when he has the time.

As you can see, Sly admits that he’s a little dissapointed of the negative feedback for having 50 Cent replacing Forest Whitaker. He is asking everyone to be positive about it, because this wasn’t the first time when people were negative over a replacement actor of Sly’s earlier films.
Sly has always been the guy that loves giving unknown actors a chance. When you’re an actor that is not too well known, and if you were on a movie with Sylvester Stallone, you know you’re going to be big and famous. Sly has made all these actors big and famous: Hulk Hogan, Dolph Lundgren, Sandra Bullock, Wesley Snipes, Sharon Stone, etc. The list goes on.
Remember when Sly had actress Julie Benz on the new “Rambo” movie? Nobody knew who she was, and now everyone does. That’s how Sly loves making new actors a star.
Sly sends AICN a list of what character that each actor in the film will be playing, check it out here:

Sigh, I’m a little jealous that Sly is writing to all these websites, but he doesn’t write to me! I’m hoping one day he does!
Sly’s right though, 50 Cent might be a great choice after all, we can’t negatively judge the movie when Sly hasn’t even started filming it. We just have to wait to see the actual film first, and then make our opinions.
