Having seen three in a row Rambo movies where he goes into a prison camp to rescue people I think that's been done.
Take on the Mexican Cartels? Really, is this the 80s. Who cares.
The U.N plot with his adopted son from 3 would have been awesome but it's way to late for him to do that. He is in his 60s in the jungle so he ain't gettin any kind of cool job.
Enter Tom (That's me)
Present Day
Rambo is working on his family farm. His Dad is there very happy his son has finally returned, perhaps an explanation for why Rambo was an A-hole and did not even know if his dad was alive. Rambo seems content and finally at peace.
I also would throw in a tribute and mention of Trautman at some point.
Sheriff Will Teasle shows up. Long story short he has trouble in his little town with some serious bad guys. No one will help and he comes to Rambo. He figures Rambo owes him and he is the only one crazy enough to do it. They have a big argument and everything is covered. Rambo tells him to F-off and leave or he will finish what he started all those years ago. Teasle leaves but not before giving Rambo a file containing the victims, etc.
You guessed it. After thinking it over and talking with Dad he realizes he has a debt to pay and people he can help.
He shows up at the Sheriff's staion saying he will help.
I should mention Rambo starts off with a beard and very long Rambo 3 type hair.
Teasle says the look won't work.
Cut to the exact angle/shot where Teasle first came out of the Sheriff's office and it's Rambo. Haircut, clean shaven, and in a deputies uniform.
He walks down to the squad car and his partner David Carusso is waiting. They give each other a look. Cut to them riding in the car and nothing being said. Awkward silence.
Finally Rambo says; "I'm sorry."
Carusso, "Ya know I was the only one trying to help you and it really hurt!"
Rambo. "Really sorry"
