		<description><![CDATA[Another all-boys, bang-bang, blow-up-stuff action film distinguished only by the unusually large number of action stars on the poster and payroll. In its juvenile fear of females, &#8220;The Expendables&#8221; beats the recent mercenary camaraderie films &#8220;The Losers&#8221; and &#8220;The A-Team.&#8221; Although talk of feelings is off limits, feeling &#8220;dead inside&#8221; is a badge of honor [...]]]></description>

With maybe some extra gravy on the side. And are you going to finish those fries? O Canada! O Tony Stark!

Surveying a couple hundred year-end lists by movie reviewers and entertainment writers can be a soul-squishing thing, particularly if you read the reasoning and rationales, the dithers, the doubts, the demurrals, the dishing and dashing to and fro, recurring, recurring.
