You're telling me. The whole thing is what made him a household name back in '84 or '85. He is the reason there are such things as action heroes.

Yeah I hope though this isn't Arnold last big box office hit.
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
He's a classic. I hope this isn't his last hurrah.
AUG
AugeybanaAugeygeta
Yeah it's hard for classic action hero to make it still big like Sylvester Stallone,Jean Claud Van Dame,Steven Segal.You never know it might happened to Jet Li or Van Diesle in ten years.
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
Van Damme is a personal favorite of mine. Universal Soldier and the Legionaiire are great films.
AUG
AugeybanaAugeygeta
Yeah a classic is bloodsport.Kickboxer wasn't that good but wasn't that bad.
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
Yeah I remember Kickboxer.....
AUG
AugeybanaAugeygeta
To bad the sequeals were terrible.
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
Yeah, they made a bunch of them didn't they?
AUG
AugeybanaAugeygeta
Yeah they had that bad actor play him I forgot he's name though.He was a more worst actor than JCVD.
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
Probably explains why the sequels wre flops. Same thing with Universal Soldier. They made a bunch of made-for-cable tv sequels but without Van Damme. Then, about seven years after the original film, he comes and does a true sequel, which was in the theaters.
AUG
AugeybanaAugeygeta
Yeah now he just too video movies where it never gets on theaters just on the video.
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
Don't you just hate it when that happens? Your favorite actors start doing straight-to- cable- movies that you know you might never see,as opposed to theaterical releases.
AUG
AugeybanaAugeygeta
Yeah it's like a down grade from doing great to trying your best to survive.
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
Yes, an actor's graveyard they should call it....
AUG
AugeybanaAugeygeta
I hope it doesn't happened to Jet LI or Vin Disele.
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
I still maintain that T3 will be an excellent entry into the series. Arnold is back and should be good to go when this baby hits theaters this summer!

he's a great action hero. but it's just too easy to make fun of him, any one seen the mad tv spoofs of him? those are too funny.
no offense arnold, or any arnold lovers
AUG
AugeybanaAugeygeta
Yeah it going to be the # one or 2 movie of the year by box office numbers
GOR

I have actually seen the Mad paradies. They are funny if disrespectful.
