Cool News
Updated: Right now! Arnie, Sly & the Bruce are shooting... in other news Hell freezes over!
Hey folks, Harry here on Twitter and the publicist for THE EXPENDABLES has posted a note saying "Cameras r rolling with sly Bruce and Arnold all together for the first time" -- We know it is in a church, because... only God could have made this happen! It is unknown, however, if they are all crucified... then using pure testosterone fueled inhuman strength they pull themselves from the cross to begin a musical number... before killing pedophile priests. That is unconfirmed. What do you think Bruce, Arnold & Sly would be shooting in a Church?
And here's Maria's latest tweet: "wow im stil reelng from the day. Six hours of Arnold bruce & sly creating movie magic. details soon on my blog but sadly no fotos...yet" -- Argh! Can't wait to hear more!!!

I imagine it would come with a California pamphlet.
-
We're gonna need a mop and some buckets. ASAP!
-
It's official. There is no possible way for this movie to get any cooler!!
-
yeah... galoshes and an umbrella.
-
do us all a favor and vote Arnold out of office so he can return to movies full time? This sounds awesome.
-
...and Lee Marvin. Get that woman from Poltergeist on the set. I'd say, ask Clint Eastwood to show up, too, but than the world would just collapse under that combined weight.
-
It's got to be a three way.
-
Sucked so bad, I'm not sure if anything short of True Lies 2 could save his movie soul. If this is an action comedy I might be swayed back to the congregation.
-
Arnie, Sly and Willis's scene will open THE EXPENDABLES! Will this be the GREATEST action scene ever filmed? Will it top the church scene in FACE/OFF with Cage and Travolta!???
-
I'm sorry, but my brains have been in more functional states than they happen to be at this moment. I hope you can all understand this.
-
Perhaps it's simply an alias due to the location he meets Sly and Arnie to hire the Expendables is in a church.
-
be trying to save California from the scourge of prop 215. He could have some great one liners. "Get high on life" or "Smoke this, hippie!"
-
I've always wanted to see Rambo and Conan fight that mechanical shark in a church. This is my fucking dream come true!
-
I just got underwear blood reading that and I haven't even had any chipotle.
-
...church to keep things on the downlow. Maybe arrive early for some private soul searching...then the other guys arrive and kneel down in pews nearby but not too close...don't look at each other and mumble the conversation as though praying.I really hope it's not that scene.
-
think they'll find a lame way to get each of them to say at least one of their famous lines in the conversation? lol
-
...it would be funny to do the usual secret-meeting-in-a-church scene but have it in an Evangelical church...you know, the kind with genuine box store style architecture...folding chairs...fluorescent lights...badly designed bulletins from Kinko's...beige wall to wall carpeting...elevator rock style worship songs...If you've been there you know what I mean. I'd laugh my ass off.
-
in the butt cheeks??
-
that is being made by the delayed premiere.
-
This is cool.

The 80's called, they want their action movies back.
by the_maltese_vulcan
This will look as dated as their birth certificates.
-
...all simultaneously toast, or kiss or something? Like when the clock strikes midnight on New Year's?A geek togetherness moment for the ages?...
-
...of Arnold's Hummers?Because apparently he's not at home just now...
-
So who is running Kalifornia? I though Arnie said he wasn't going to do ANY movies while he was governator.

From beyond the grave(and the 90's) an old enemy has returned...THE HARD ROCK CAFE!!! Can the original owners of Planet Hollywood re-unite and fight off the Hard Rocks plans for a hostile takeover. And what of Elwood Blues and the House of Blues??? Will Elwood be friend....or foe? FIND OUT IN THEATRES,SUMMER 2011. BE SURE TO PURCHASE YOUR POPCORN IN A SOUVENIR PLANET HOLLYWOOD POPCORN BAG-ONLY $29.95!!!!
-
Jackie Chan and Jet Li together was kinda distracted by Jackie's wig and all that costuming.
-
Back some years ago, I remember coming out of a Sushi bar in Beverly Hills, went around the block to get my car...and there was Arnold in his (yellow, I think) Hummer coming out of an apartment parking lot, with a blond who was definitely NOT Maria. T2 had just come out, and about all I could think to say was "Hey. Liked your movie." He smiled and made a regal gesture, like a prince flipping a gold coin to a peasant. Actually a cool moment.
-
I am only interested in seeing a select few movies w/ high talent directors, that play to his strengths. If he is going to make more movies like 6th Day, End of Days, Collateral, Junior, Jingle All the Way, then he need not bother. Seriously. Honestly though I'm not sure what roles would be good for him as his main attraction was the physical presence he brought to roles, and he aint lookin so hot last I checked. (this from an old school hardcore Arnie fan)
-
Shit, that would be cool.
-
haha
-
...fatigues and flat top, sweaty blood stained wife beater and bare feet, silk boxing trunks?
-
Imagine Will Smith chanting that from that gambling episode of Fresh Prince.
-
Exactly. And Sly must look like he got punched in the face by Dolph. :P
-
We have someone president only because of their race and they gave him a nobel peace price only for ATTEMPTING world peace and not making ANY ACHIEVEMENT. Reminds me of the simpsons episode where sideshow bob was like, "attempted murder? Do they give a nobel prize for attempted (chemistry, physics, somethingpr other) ?!"
-
But it's too little too late. Just like them other silly old bastards in 'Righteous Kill'. Should have done it years ago when it still mattered to an audience rather than a handful of tubby assed Cheeto loving fucking clowns.
-
You don't love Cheetos?

Didn't anyone see that shitty "trailer" a few days ago
by lockesbrokenleg
Ugh, can the screen handle all this overrated acting?
-
...die and appear in front of Satan at the gates of Hell. They're a little surprised to be there and frankly terrified...imagining an eternity of torment.Satan tries to reassure them, saying Hell is the victim of bad press...not nearly as bad as you have heard.Monday for example, do they like to eat? Who doesn't right? Monday is like Thanksgiving all day, every kind of food you can imagine, in endless quantities, and you never gain weight...a glutton's dream!Tuesday? Just between us, do they enjoy a little nose candy?...any other drugs? On Tuesday you get to indulge endlessly in any chemical substance known to man. Buckets full...as much as you like...and no overdoses. Ever. For all eternity. A rock star's wet dream.And Wednesday! Oh, man Wednesday!...do they enjoy the gay sex? What?...no? Hmmm...well... Wednesdays might be a little hard for you guys at first...

Again, I hope they trade catch phrases during the scene.
by gibsonusa returns
Bruce: So do we get to win this time or what?
Arnold: Yippie kay ey mathafacka!
Sly: Hehe, I'll be back. -
Are you saying Bruce Cambell or someone else. Personally I would love to see some Bruce Lee corpse marionette-fu going on in a movie, but that's just me
-
Arnold, Bruce, and Sly end the movie, and just when it appears that the credits are going to roll, Chuck Norris kicks down the door with two machine guns.
Chuck: Guys, we gotta new mission!

Surely we could use those cold blue eyes for something! They can have him killing some random dude in the background.
-
Planning to film doesnt count.
What if before filming, one of the three guys trips and hits his head on a sink, suffers a broken feelings, and refuses to participate? Now that they are actually filming, I think even Sly can smile. -
Ahhhh...If only Mel Gibson, Danny Glover and Kurt Russell could be there with them. I guess we'll take what we can. This is just too damn cool for words!!!

Bruce, Sly, and Arnold are shooting....bullets or film?
by gibsonusa returns
These three should be the stars of the sequel.
They should be fighting Hong Hong stars Chow Yun Fat, Jackie Chan, and Jet Li. That would rock. -
And when Arnie his load he says: "That will be all, Jean-Claude."
-
Oct 24, 2009 5:14:50 PM CDT
They should subtlely mention the other action stars in dialogue.
by gibsonusa returns
Bruce Sly and Arnold should talk about "Jean, Steven, and Chuck" and how they whipped their asses and laugh.

Harry, please talk to Sly and either debunk (hopefully) or confirm this. Good god, don't let this be true.

Since ROCKY has now caught up to SAW, do a SAW approach.
by gibsonusa returns
SAW movies don't just follow one another linearly, but go back and forth throughout the storyline.
It would be interesting to see a Rocky 7 movie that doesn't take place after Rocky 6, but pretty much at the same time as Rocky 6, filling in gaps, and providing a second story that was taking place at the same time. -
for their careers :)
I don't think that, but I had to say it -

For crap's sake - Arnie can't shoot something on his day off?

Chuck Norris' left testicle.
By adding Statham, Li, Coture and Lundgren, that MIGHT equal a matched pair. However, given that Trejo is also in the mix, I'd go so far as to say you've got a fully loaded scrotum there. -
TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION.

...might stand for "abdominal" king, not A.B. King.ABKing as in "...I am the Abdominal King, you must bow and worship the abdominals right now. You may touch the abdominals but only on holidays of my choosing and so on and so forth and things of that nature...".Sort of like the ThighMaster...but different.

To those making jibes about Arnold not governating
by judge dredds fresh undies
Even the governor gets a day off... except he's spending his helping a friend.
'Hey Schwarzegger just went to the bathroom! How DARE he when there is a state to be run!' -
Please show me someone with a grandfather (who isn't a former bodybuilder) that looks as good as Arnie...
-
Sly, Bruce, and Arnold arrive at the Church dressed as priests to discuss their plan because they believe the Church is the one place where they can talk with true privacy without being spied on. Special cameo by ABKing as an altar boy who approaches the 3 action stars and offers them a plate of hot dogs. The look at the hot dogs curiously, wondering if they have been away from Church so long that they weren't aware that they now serve hot dogs. Arnie takes one, Bruce takes one, and then Sly goes to take one, but Sly's hot dog appears to be stuck, so Sly keeps yanking and tugging on it, and ABKing lets out some deep guttural sounds, and his eyes roll back into his head.
-
PLEASE make this happen Jim. It would be an amazing way for Arnold to come back to the world of cinema.
-
Arnold is a master at manipulating his body. If he needed to be in shape to do a shirtless King Conan then all he would need is a few months to get back there. Being a Governor, he probably doesn't have the time to workout every day that he would like and need to get there.
-
I await the DVD
-
That's funny, Mickey Rourke's gag from Diner! And he's in this movie, nice connection!
-
Yeah, Rourke uses the old dick in the popcorn bag gag in diner, but I can't take credit for that connection because I was thinking of Bachelor Party with Tom Hanks, where his fiance and friends go to a strip bar, and Hanks and his buddies show up and pay one of the strippers to offer them a plate of hot dogs...only one of them is not a hot dog...much like the hot dog ABKing longs to offer to Sly.

I bet what took Arnold so long to get to this was because Jettl9
by billboefett
was because Jettl93 had to approve his new ballot initiatives for California, and also give Sly the thumbs up on the new script rewrites for Arnold and Bruce's scene. That reminds me, I was sitting in the stickyfoot theater the other day, and Ashton Kutcher was next to me, twittering of course. In walks Willis, who sits down next to Ashton, and says "you twittering my ex-wife??" and Ashton says "of course. We twitter all day, every day". And then I didn't know if it was funny to laugh, and I looked over at Jettl93 sitting next to C-No, and Jettl93 gave Kurt Russel the thumbs up. As soon as Kurt Russel laughed, I knew it was all good.
-
...doing tens of thousands of crunches all day, pounding himself in the stomach and shaking his head furiously from time to time to stay fired up. Every five reps he hits refresh so as not to miss abdominal related cool news...The minor keys of the RED HEAT soundtrack play ominously in the background...
-
Just like we got with Sly? His career is long and fascinating, just like my you know what.
-
Love the character names. This movie is gonna make THE A-TEAM look like a movie for girls.
-
WHOOOO BABY!!!!! Sly is a fucking movie god.
-
check out the pic of him in the green shirt. http://www.thearnoldfans.com/news/1558.htm AND yes, hopefully those ROCKY 7 rumors are FALSE. Rocky is already a prefect 6 part series.
-
I know I said the same thing before ROCKY BALBOA came out, but that was out of disinterest for a sequel. Now that Sly has left the character on the prefect note, the masterpiece is finished. Time for a new icon, Sly. Don't mess with a perfect send-off.
-
Many years too late.
-
I wouldn't put it past any of them.

Sly, Arnold, and Bruce are somewhere together at the same time...kickin it.
Thats just greaaatt....

Yeah it is cool to see them all but they aren't really trying cause it doesn't mean anything. Man I'm cynical but i hear this and I shrug. The movie was already cool. I guess this is just the icing.
-
Not trying? Doesn't mean anything? Sly is trying all right...trying to make the GREATEST ACTION MOVIE EVER MADE! THE EXPENDABLES trailer shows that this film is gonna rule next summer. And check out his last two films and tell me he's not trying. Same goes for Arnold and TERMINATOR 3. Sly and Arnold give the fans what they want.

Term Limits mean this is his last term in office as govenor, cross your fingers and hopefully he decides to return to movies once again.
-
Sounds badass!!!
-
When he came in here saying Live Free or Die Soft was as good as Die Hard 1, and then when the PR men said "good work" he took a shit swirl and said "i'm out bitches". You know i've never been a fan of Willis entire screen persona, in fact Die Hard i'm rooting for Hans to ice that annoying cunthair. He doesn't belong with Arnie or Sly. Heck his name can't even be shortened ina cool fashion, Bru blows.
-
Sorry, hoss... I take exception to that. THE BRUCE is Bruce Campbell; always has been, always will be. Not to detract from Bruce Willis and reclaiming his action star cred with the 4th "Die Hard" excursion (solid piece of work; somewhat poor timing release-wise). If a fifth Die Hard movie comes down the pike anytime soon... please see fit to make it a dual-Bruce endeavor. I believe such a shindig would work out quite well.

exactly my thoughts.But Bruce didnt say that DH4 was as good as the original movie,no,he said that it was better!!!.and i remember that clearly because i was there during those talkbacks with 'WalterB' and i was so furious when i read his statement about the new movie,that i answered to him and told him that he was a bitch doing the studio's PR work.Since then i lost all my respect for Bruce,who was one of my favourite superstars,because the guy is a whore about money,a puppet following the studio's will and a liar who doesnt respect his fans and most importantly his own iconic character,which he was born to play.fuck him.

Please don't to this Sly! I will always by a ticket (sometimes several) to your flicks, but don't do it. You said everything you needed to in Rock Balboa and ended it perfectly. Help me out here people!

I never really considered Bruce Willis an “Action” Star
by i_snake_plissken
At least not in the same vein as Sly or Arnold. Sly’s whole career was pretty much action. Schwarzenegger had the uneven mix of comedies (Twins, Kindergarten Cop). Willis has made some straight up bad “action” films (Striking Distance comes to mind) but he’s made just as many cheeseball thrillers (Mortal Thoughts, that soft porn film where he players a psychologist) and straight up comedies (The Whole Nine Yards). I realize this does not add much to the conversation, but I’m just stalling until this week’s NFL games start.
-
I have deep misgivings about rocky seven. why, sly? unless it has a bernard dunne element threaded into it. popular boxer gets beaten into a bloody pulp against the backdrop of a shocked audience. who wants to see rocky beaten to a pulp. i dont want to see that movie. I did hear that sly was going to do a rocky movie but one where it was all about how corrupt the sport is.
-
queue to bruce, arnie and sly in a movie. but not now. and its not like these guys are broke. this movie seems like a last throw of the dice at least for sly.
-
because he claimed Die Hard 4 was awesome? ummm thats their job when promoting a movie.
-
california is broke.
-
he compared DH4 with DH1 and said that it was even better that the first movie,and that we should not worry that it was PG13 !!!!.
I am sorry but promotion has its limits,and when an actor comes here and tells to the fans of one of the most iconic action characters of the best american action movie,that DH4 is better than that movie,well either he is a fucking liar who will even trash the movie who made him superstar,just to justify to the studio his check or 20m,or a fucking idiot who truly believes that a PG13,modernized DH sequel is going to be better that the original.
and something else: i like DH4,i consider it a very well made action movie,and Willis still has the mcclane persona,but it is not worthy to be called a DH sequel,mainly because of its pg13 rating.it really harmed the movie.but anyway. -
Sly is making a rocky 7 movie? jesus h christ,is the bastard so much greedy or he owes to mafia a lot of money? mr stallone u concluded the rocky saga perfectly,let the story of this iconic character end there,dont ruin it.

by nomoredirtyjokespleaseweareyanks
Color of Night was a bizarre film. I remember when it came out me and my buddies thought it was a hilarious black comedy thriller. The scenes with Scott Bakulas patients are comedy fuckin gold. My favorite part is also my favorite line. When Brad Dourif's obsessive compulsive hits the roof at the sex addict...and I quote "shut up. Shut up. SHUT UP, YOU PROMISCUOUS CUNT!!!!!" Fuckin Extreme Comedy.

I expected him to sell the film, but he could have cut the hyperbole.
But the worst thing was he just ran away after people asked some tough questions. -

-
Have you seen Arnold's recent California commercials and/or public speaking? The man is old, out of shape and could barely act to begin with. I wouldn't be so hyped up about getting him out of office and back into films. And this is coming from someone who proudly names Conan The Barbarian as his all-time favorite film (it's still damn near perfect other than a need for some fx updating). Like, really, what do you want to see Arnold doing in films? Because the old full-on action star Arnold is dead. It ain't gonna happen. Arnold is not Sly Stallone. He just doesn't have the look anymore. Personally, I'd love to see Conan The King finally happen, and in that role he could be kinda bad ass and have younger actors around him doing the super bad assness. Otherwise, I guess he could keep playing old ass former mercenaries until he keels over for real. But in my mind that would do nothing but diminish the run of films in the 80's and early 90's that made most of us love the guy. I want to remember Arnold as those characters, not as an old man trying to recapture that glory.
-
I'm super stoked on Arnie being in THIS FILM, for sure. I just don't see him having a lot of options for making a full-on action star return to glory.
-
Fuck you. Piece of shit.
-
We need a little more love in here for Conan the Barbarian. I understand that some people just see it as a cheesy 80's movie with Arnold running around in a loin cloth, but there's actually a very solid, serious, well-told story there. While it's not Arnold's most iconic role, I think it was truly the best fitting character he's ever played. I've also heard some complain that it wasn't the same Conan character that was in the comics, but IMO Arnold's portrayal was far more interesting and likeable. Even the acting- while not Oscar caliber- wasn't THAT bad for its time. Some of the swordplay by the extras and supporting cast members was pretty poorly choreographed, but things like that weren't accentuated the way they are these days so much less attention was paid to them. So for the few reasons why many people are quick to dismiss the movie, I say that's BS; Conan is the man.
-

Anyone else here like Color of Night????
by nomoredirtyjokespleaseweareyanks
once more..... shut up. Shut Up. SHUT UP, YOU PROMISCUOUS CUNT!!!!!! Take THAT Leslie Ann Warren...
-
Seriously. I wish, Arnie and Brucie had bigger roles in THE EXPENDABLES...
-
and when I came I sang "young hearts, be free, tonight!"
-
was based heavily on the marvel conan comics,and not so much on the original books.So although Conan is indeed a decent epic fantasty flick (and nothing more),it is not at all faithful to the source.
I hope the new conan movie,whenever its going to be made,it will respect the original books and give us the true Conan. -
That was entirely my point. The movie and character weren't really faithful to much- if any- of the original source material, books or comics. That's what I liked about it. Conan, for me, is somewhat like Bladerunner; I love the source material, but the cinematic version is its own vision. And in some ways its even better than the source, although still different. So saying that Conan the Barbarian wasn't faithful to the source material, for me, isn't all that bad of a thing.
-
As soon as your pulls the strap-on out of your ass how about you come over and lick my smelly ball juice? You ignorant, cum guzzling fucktard. And please do try a little harder in the future. That was some seriously unoffensive weak sauce. Now, did you have a point? If so, how about you attempt using more than one brain cell at a time and actually express it.
-
As soon as your MOM pulls the strap-on out of your ass. I was laughing so hard I left that word out.
-
Other than the fact that it's just NOT a book adaptation - how is it not faithful to Conan? Arnold IS Conan in that movie. And until the LOTR trilogy, imo, Conan The Barbarian was the most pure fantasy film every put to celluloid. Just comparing it to Conan The Destroyer makes it clear how great it is. Compare it to all the other 80's fantasy flicks that we know and love (most of which were rated PG) and it just smashes on them. Violent, epic, panoramic, theft, adventure for pay, revenge, naked women, sex and very little dialogue: how is that not faithful to the Conan in the books? lol
-
By logging directly into talkback, this place got flooded with people...it became a mess. I appreciate Bruce's direct interaction with fans, but Sly's way was better.
-
and check out their top 50 star endorsed commerials. check out cages ones and arnie's. commercial is surreal.
-
It looks more like a bad 80s action film rather than a good one. But still I'll have to watch it for Arnold.
-
You're a piece of shit.
-
We still need Seagal and Van Damme!
-
Looking so forward to this film!
-
This is the moment AICN was made for.
-
is a bad bad bad bad bad bad baaaaaad idea!
Just sayin'. -
Do you seriously doubt that if Arnold wants back in movies that he couldnt get into the kind of shape Sly is in?
Conan is my favourite film of all time, it has some technical flaws (when arnold takes his horse through the standing stone you hear the wooden base it has trotted onto, that bugs me hahaha) but for me it has a whole lot more character than LOTR. -
...everyone who came to them with a project for "Sly and Arnie" have now been shamed and silenced.
-
The same news story must have also reported pigs flying! :-)
-
That is why the scenes were shot in a church. Only GOD Himself can contain that level of badassery.
-
Glad that rumor has been debunked.
-
Rocky is fighting a savage beast which actually represents the savage beast within all of us. So for most of the film, Rocky just punches himself in the head.
-
Fine, put him in Rambo. :)
-
used to train with? This time IT TAKES REVENGE
-
i would rather watch Conan the Barbarian three times in a row, than the entire LOTR trilogy at once. Conan had a much better philosophy of life than Gandalf. "To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women." Show me one thing Gandalf said that is half as bad ass.
-
LOTR is part of high fantasy, all about elves and unicorns, boring. Conan is part of low fantasy aka sword and sorcery and is indeeed superior.
-
Let me clarify. I don't think that they are "not trying" to make an awesome fucking movie. What I was getting at was that The Expendables was already fucking sweet and that, while it is cool that Bruce and Arnold are going to be in it what we have heard so far is that these will just be conversation scenes. It isn't like we are gonna see Arnold, Bruce and Sly back to back to back and gunning down squad after squad of bad guys. Bruce and Arnold will walk in and we will go, "Wow! It's Bruce and Arnold!" and that will be it. If they are fighting side by side well then I stand corrected and you will get my apology on here just as soon as I change my soaked underwear.

Now I know why films like Saw have six movies - it's cause of people like you.

Honestly i've read most of the short stories and they are the best writing i've seen, Howard is defintiely my favorite author and yet i love the movie too. Sure Conan acts different than in the books but it's a movie, i can enjoy both movie and book. Lest we forget it was Conan the 1982 movie that ushered in the entire 80s wave of sword and sorcery copycats which were b-movie goodenss, Deathstalker, Ator, Beastmaster, Barbarian Queen, Yor anyone????
-
I also think it will be a conversation scene that will set them up being leads in PART II. But still, the opening scene they say will set the tone of the movie. Even if it's not SLY, ARNOLD and BRUCE blowing things up, it will still be history in the making to have all 3 finally in a film together.

They're gonna need a bigger church.

I'm talking HARD BOILED/hospital style.

and the church is the sacred ground where they cant cut each others head.
or maybe they meet to confess their sins to the priest there,sins of death and destruction which have caused in their past adventures. -
this sounds incredible!

Have you even read any Conan books?

and fuck those washed up, lame ass "actors". i grew up in the 80's and have first hand knowledge of how lame those movies were. you young whipper snappers are looking at the past with rose colored glasses. this movie is going to be lame as fuck.
-
Go fuck yourself.

their just trying to jump on the 'comeback' bandwagon that john travolta and mickey rourke got lucky on. which, by the way, travolta still sucks. that train has left the station. arnold was a shit governor and does not deserve a comeback. sly ruined judge dread, fuck him. bruce is ok. not sure why he's a part of this movie. you idiots need to get a life. there are like 50 people in the world that are into this movie.
-
and their all in this talkback
-
because they are praying that this movie does not go directly to dvd, where it belongs

for 30 something boys

I believe I read them all at one time. First the Howard books, and then a great many of those that followed. I seem to recall Steve Perry being a later day favorite.Also, for the record, I wasn't comparing CTB and LOTR. As another talkbacker pointed out, they are two completely different things. It's simply my opinion that they are the best fantasy put to film. Conan is definitely still my favorite film.Now, if anybody comes back to this talkback, please explain to me the great difference between the Howard Conan and the Conan of the first film. Not meaning that in a "prove my point" kind of way, more "maybe I really don't remember". I know he was a bit less serious, and found "love" or whatever. But he also left her to continue on with his badassness. The overall tone of the FIRST film (I despise the second one - won't even type it's name), the story elements and the production has always felt very close to the world of the books to me. But like I said, I could be totally off and need to sit down with some Conan books again.Do I think Arnold could get back in the shape that Sly got into? Yeah, if he injected a steroid truck again - just like Sly did. I mean really, have you seen the pic of Arnold in a speedo vacationing? He's an old pudgy man. He's also talked about the fact that he won't ever be that built again. Especially Conan built, which he's said was the biggest he ever got. I would love it if Arnold found a way to get back into Hollyweird. Stranger things have definitely happened, including the last Rambo NOT completely sucking. Maybe Arnold could even do more action films. Like I said, he could be Conan The King and not have to be half naked and ripped all the time. Or he could play older military/mercenary types. But I do not believe with one cell of my being that Arnold will ever be the action star that he once was. IMO all you should have to do is look at the last few action flicks he did to understand this. After all, there is a reason he chose that time to stop acting and go into politicin'.
-
Is there a camera that can pick up the raw manly fury being displayed in this scene?
-
Oh right, Arnold was Kalidor wasn't he? pus there'es Barbarian Master, Dragonslaer, Wizards of the Lost Kingdom, Gor, Dungeonmaster. IF i could only have a GLaive.....

That is my standing too, appreciating the book Conan and movie Conan for what they are, one for beign the very best of pulp tales and creating the genre, the other for creating a decade's width of influence on cinema with many beefy guys in loincloths, which last saw the spike in the early 60s with sword and sandals, it seems people were ready for ancient beefyness once more. Similarly how i'm glad Apocalypse Now is its own animal apart from Heart of Darkness, on rare occasions the cinematic iterations are even better than their book counterparts aka The Shining.
