Thread: Schwarzenegger's best movie?

Twins

terminator 2

True Lies

Last Action Hero....

Conan

and i have seen every single film he has been in.

Too many tough ones to choose just one.

I may have to go with...........AHHHHH, i can't do it.

Ok, now that i'm calm........
My fav. Arnold movie ever is "Pumping Iron". It's teh "real" Arnold.

Fav. movie Arnold is acting in is probably Predator. (but then there's the Terminators, Conans, Red Sonja, Twins, True Lies, Commando, Running Man......TOO MANY)

hmmmm I can't really pick one above the others, but the running man was the first Arnold Movie I saw and it made me an Arnold fan, so I'll have to go with that.

I forgot about that one.....I liked that one a lot.

No question, Terminator 2, followed by Terminator. Flex, I never thought Pumping Iron was the real Arnold. I always heard that it was an act for the camera.

I loved all his movies............

I loved Kindergarten Cop the most...as far as comedy goes.

I read that too. In an interview (years after the movie) he said that they asked him to put on a huge show and tell some lies ex. missing his dad's funeral for a bodybuilding show. It was what the producers wanted people to see, not really Arnie

that's why i put the "real" Arnold. i meant it as it was his real person (not a cyborg/cop/ex-military badass).

i meant it as that was him, before he became real rich and real famous.

like irontime mentioned, many of the things in P.I. were "staged" to get more audience appeal.

i have maaad books on Arnie, so if you guys have any questions, fire away.

any of you guys seen one of his less famous films.....Red Sonja. Great flick, its like anotehr Conan.

I really liked True Lies, Twins, Kindergarten Cop... and... Predator, The Terminator Trio, Total Recall, Conan, Red Sonja, Commando...

red sonya was good that side kick kid was in it. who was in surf ninjas. anyone see the villian , or hercules in NY, or red heat, stay hungry, raw deal.

Commando was also a fav.

I liked predator and commando. What did you guys think of Collateral Damage? It was OK.

true ok, but i think he should stop making movies. i thik his lst good film ws true lies

red heat is great w/ belushi.

Arnold- "who are doze guys wolkeeng towoods us" (refering to the black gangsters)

Belushi- "Looks like the new york knicks starting 5, with shotguns"

I like Predator, because Jesse the body Ventura is also in it
The body: "Here try some of this" (Chew tobacco)
guy in chopper: "No way!"
The body: "Buncha slack-jawed faggots around here. this stuff will make you a gooddamn sexual tyrannnosaurus, just like me"

Conan, it was a tailor made Arnold movie and he has never bested that role for fit.

I'd give True lies a second and third would have to be the original Terminator.

hahah good quote premier (NOT fire )

but i believe its "Buncha slack-jawed faggots around here. this stuff will make you a gooddamn sexual tyrannnosaurus, just like me" hahahahah good line bro

here's another good one..........

guy addressing the body: "you're hit. you're bleeding man."
the body: "i ain't got time to bleed"

These are my fav. 2 though......

after the body gets killed, and mac is talking to him while he's in the body bag. they play that music (slow and sad) and he gives that speech.......
"Here we are again bro... Just you and me. Same kind of moon same kind of jungle. Real number 10 remember... Whole platoon, 32 men chopped into meat... We walk out just you and me, nobody else. Right on top huh? Not a scratch... Not a fucken scratch. You know who ever got you. They'll come back again. And when he does I'm gonna cut your name right into him... I'M GONNA CUT YOUR NAME RIGHT INTO HIM!"

and the other.........


Mac to Dillon: I don't care who you are back in the world. you give away our position one more time, I'll bleed you, real quiet. Leave ya here. Got that?

Oops! havent seen it in a while I have it on DVD too LoL. Anyways its fixed Yea not fire... still was thinkin of changin the avi, but need to resize

Blain holds out the tobacco to Ramirez, who swats at
the offending object as if it were alive.

RAMIREZ
(shouting)
Get that stinkin' thing out
of my face, Blain!

Grinning, Blain proffers the plug to each man, each one
refusing; they've done it a thousand times. It's an old
gag but they obviously care for the man in a big way.

BLAIN
...bunch of slack-jawed
faggots around here...
(holds up plug)
...this stuff will put hair on your chest
guaranteed...
(chewing)
...make you a God-damned
sexual ty-ran-toe-sore-ass...
just like me.

Definitely my favorite movie quote!

ARNOLD ROCKS!!!


Seriously, I'm a big fan of his. I lived a very sheltered life until about the time I saw Terminator II which was mind blowing for me! I admire him for his goal oriented mind. You all know his history and probably better than me, but I think Arnold is so uniquely inspiring!

First, to being a multiple Mr. Universe and Mr. Olympia title winner. Then to become famous as a movie star. He was told it wouldn't happend because of his difficult name and accent.

Most recently, of course, Arnold has his gubernatorial conquest in California. What next?

list goes like this

terminator 2
predator
terminator 1
commando

TOP 4 in that order !!!

I like collateral damage.

True Lies would have to be top of the list however. I like all his movies.
