I pick arnold. He has that charisma that makes his movies more enjoyable. True Lies was great.

Tom Arnold was the one that made that movie.

I love the horse chase scene in True Lies. Tom Arnold's reaction to Arnie saying that his horse is getting tired was priceless

Thank you for the template.

I've bolded the movies I enjoyed by both actors.
(-1 for Judge Dredd?? Really?? Zero Rambo III and Lock Up??)
=/

I think based on their body of work, Stallone is clearly my better actor. He also writes and Directs and has more overall to offer in a film making.
He has a larger body of work for MY preferences than Awnold does.

Besides Stallone did action, comedy, sci fi and porn. For that alone he out does Ahnold.
Further, Stallone is running the Expendibles, Ahnold has a bit part...proof!
;p


YO ADRIAN! WE DID IT!!!

Stallone

ps; Im really dissapointed nobody knows about one of my FAV Stallone flicks evah...Paradise Alley (1978). It could have been a Coen Bros flick.

This one is extremely hard because they are both the greatest action stars ever. I had to give the edge to Stallone for Rambo and Rocky, 2 of my favorite franchises.

I think if Swarzenegger never did Predator, probably the most perfect action movie ever, this would be an easy poll. It's pretty even though. Here are my highlights:

Swarzenegger
Predator
Terminator Series
Commando

Stallone
Rambo Series
Rocky Series
Cliffhanger
Demolition Man
Over the Top
Copland
Expendables (I have a good feeling about it)

[Snikt]

My vote goes to Arnold. Always like both Sly and Arnold, but I give the edge to the govenator.

Sly may be the better actor, writer and director; but Arnold's movies just seem more fun for me.

Honestly, have people forgetten about The Running Man and Total Recall as far as sci-fi/action movies. These are almost classics now.

And at least Arnold's comedic movies worked out better for him than Sly. I loved TWINS and KIDNERGARTEN COP.

Junior was okay, and I have a soft spot in my heart for JINGLE ALL THE WAY. The reason being, I know I put my parents throught that Hell around Christmas time looking for toys

+1. Arnold takes the cake.

[Taat]

Stallone is the best action star out of the two.

Sometimes mindless threads are fun - like mindless movies.
By the way .... I think it is a tie.

[NutsAboutPS3]

Nothing wrong with a thread like this IMO, people will always debate such questions. Ah-nuld for me, no doubt about it
