Hero-of-Time Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 After reading Dan Dares topic about the Terminator films it got me thinking who does everyone think is better. Now we both know both these guys cant really act ( i would say Stallone is better than Arnie in that dept. ) but which of these 2 guys films do you prefer. For me I would say Stallone. Im a huge fan of the Rambo and Rocky series and Demolition Man stands as one of my favourite action flicks. Also a lesser know film that he did which was called Over the Top has an amazing soundtrack and great story. Then there is Daylight which came out during that whole disaster movie period which I still enjoy watching and also Cliffhanger which is a pretty solid film. Arnie on the other hand has only been great in a few films such as the Terminator series and that is probably because he had to act like a machine. Im a fan of the Running Man film but most of his early stuff is simply cheese such as Commando. I love both of their films as i like a good action flick but for me Stallone wins it. What about you guys?
Stocka Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I love Rocky, and therefore I love Stallone.
Blackfox Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Arnie all the way. Terminator 1 & 2 proves how awesome he is. Imagine Stallone in the same roll...nahh
DiemetriX Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Arnold was good in Terminator.. But stallone was AWSOME in Demiliton man and the rocky series. So Stallone ftw
Katie Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 The only Stallone film I can think of that I like is Demolition Man, I haven't really watched any of his others. So it has to be Arnie for me. I watched Kindergarten Cop yesterday and it's much funnier than I remember. I also saw Total Recall for the first time the other week and I really liked it. True Lies is awesome too. I really should get round to seeing terminator, I think I'm the only person that hasn't.
Pit-Jr Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 You beat me to it Katie, True Lies is one of my favorite movies. I thought he did a passable job on End of Days too
rokhed00 Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Got to be Schwarzenegger, Stallone will never be forgiven for the balls up he made of Judge Dredd.
Shorty Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Arnie wins it for Predator, T2 and True Lies, and maybe even his humourous self-mockery in Last Action Hero.
jakeee Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I wouldn't be able to live without great quotes from Arnold. And I love Terminator 1&2 Commando, Predator, True Lies, Last Action Hero, Total Recall and Conans. Terminator 3 is okay too. Here are some great quotes from Arnie: (Arnold is talking to the devil)"You think you're bad, huh? You're a fucking choir boy compared to me! A choir boy!" "I'll make you eat that contract but I hope you will leave enough room for my fist because I'm going to ram it in your stomach and break your spine!" (a mongol asks:"Conan, what's best in life?)"To crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentation of their women." "I'm a cop you idiot!" "Who is your daddy and what does he do?"
gaggle64 Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 It's gotta be Schwarznegger. The man's just too damn charismatic to ignore. I was also very surprised at his governership of California. He actually appears to have done a really great job. I would actually think that he would be a pretty decent choice for the Oval Office. Him, or Codeliza Rice. Definitly better him then Hillary Clinton. "To all the people who say our economy is doing badly, I say: Stop being economic girly men!" Classic - and it wasn't even on one of his films.
EEVILMURRAY Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I'd have to say a tie. Demolition Man and Judge Dredd [which I enjoyed] Vs Last Action Hero and Total Recall... can't be done.
ViPeR Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Master of one liners "See you at da parrrdy Richter!"
cheets Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Got to be Schwarzenegger, Stallone took himself to serious and he still is, with Arnie it was always abit of a joke. "Don't disturb my friend, he's dead tired." What film, hotshot.
Konfucius Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Schwarzenegger for me. Only yesterday I watched Predator in English (well the germans do a lot of sychronisations) and his voice acting is really bad, but the german voice actor is good (it isn't Schwarzenegger himself) but although Arnies voice acting is a little strange I like his films better. T1-3, Predator, Last Action Hero and Total Recall are my favorite Arnie movies and there are only two Stallone films I like, the first Rambo and Judge Dredd.
Domstercool Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Got to be Schwarzenegger, Stallone took himself to serious and he still is, with Arnie it was always abit of a joke. "Don't disturb my friend, he's dead tired." What film, hotshot. Commando
cheets Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Yup If you ever get chance, watch the Streets of San Francisco with a young Arnie in one of the episodes, its about him being a bodybuilder and he slaps a girl around when she calls him big, tis a funny and poor acting episode, also Micheal Douglas starred in the series and Karl "big nose" Malden, who featured in a Family Guy episode with cocaine, how i laughed.
dabookerman Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 arnie, i dont think theres any film he has made that people will outwards hate... stallone did get carter and driven, piles of shit, where is he now? in spy kids...right "its not a toomah"
EEVILMURRAY Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 "its not a toomah" Quality flash animation that was.
Hellfire Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I don't know Arnie has Terminator and End of Days, Stallone has Rocky and Rambo. They both like to shout out women's names though. Stallone: AAAAAADRIAAAN! Schwazzeneger: MARIA! AAAA MARIA!!! Seriously Will Sasso's imitation of Arnie is genious.
bryanee Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 Arnie all the way. I'm two films short of his entire collection on DVD. Big fan. Nothing Stallone has done will ever compare to T1, T2, Predator, Last Action Hero, True Lies, The End of Day, I could go on and on and on. ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRNIE. I do like alot of Stallone films though so dont think of me as a Stallone hater.
rokhed00 Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 arnie, i dont think theres any film he has made that people will outwards hate... Jingle all the way?
