First Blood was such a great film. Rambo II was jingoistic nonsense, but at least it was entertaining from an action perspective back when i was going through puberty. everything else in this franchise has been pretty pointless and dumb.
if they want to send this character out the way he deserves, they should have made him an overweight, drunk, MAGA-hat-wearing trumptard who gets fired from his crappy job as a Walmart greeter, can't afford his meds anymore, blames all his problems on the deep state, and decides to stage some kind of inept takeover of the local DMV because the internet tells him it's a front for a child pr0n ring, only to get himself shot and killed in the process. it would have been a fitting and more believable send-off for this character.
he needs to be killed off by Tarantino the way he killed off Bud in Kill Bill II
