Thats a perfect description of "Commando" lol

Unfortuantely he has helped bring in such disappointents as The Rock and Vin Diesel. 😉

To be honest, I dont think The Rock is really all that bad, although Vin Diesel is trash.

Yeah it looks like Vin Diesel is reading off of cue-cards whenever he does a film.

To be honest, I think Arnie completely single handly saved action films and brought the genre a new future.

A future which will probably be ruined.

Without Arnie around anymore I think so too.

commando was great, purely because of how shit it was

lol, I loved Pumping Iron and still do 😊

eggmayo: Exactly right !!

It was so crap yet so fun to watch.

Yeah I have to agree.

Classic 80's Action Movie Plot: Blow up huge things, kill dozens of bad guys, save your daughter, fight the boss, then go home with the beautiful girl with only one scratch on your face after its all said and done.

Now THERE is a perfect Commando description.

I'm starting to miss the Arnie 80's action movies days. 🙁

I think terminator films and predator were his only films that were decent enough to pay for

What about True Lies and maybe the first Conan?

True Lies was good, Predeator was great.

I thought The Running Man was kinda underrated too, its really not too bad.

Most of Arnie's films were great or at least good (besides Jingle All The Way, and Junior) but my favorites will always be Terminator 2 and Pumping Iron.

I still havent seen pumping iron...

Really? wow

Its a real classic and it features the 1975 competition of Mr. Olympia which pitted the Hulk himself Lou Ferrigno against the Terminator Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Summary: Arnold Schwarzenegger (The Terminator) stars in the exciting "Pumping Iron," the box office blockbuster that elevated body building from freak show to art form and launched Schwarzenegger's mega-superstar career. Schwarzenegger is mesmerizing and ruthless as he psyches out competitors - including Lou "The Hulk" Ferrigno, Franco Columbo and Mike Katz - in his quest for a sixth straight Mr Olympia title. Surprising backstage and off-sight scenes reveal why they muscle warriors are seduced by the sport and how they and their families are consumed with defeating the Champion of Champions, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
