you're not offending me, I was just curious what kind of work environment outside of a 5th grade playground would create an "argument on who was better, Arnold or Sly"

It wasn't really an argument..more like a discussion and who really gives a crap what I do for a living...its a simple discussion.....if you don't want to be involved than go watch a soap opera or something....

Shut this thread down. Arnold.

Tom Arnold was the one that made that movie.

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

Ahnald for me, Stallone is just not quite as good. It's too bad Ahnald became the Governator, I miss seeing new movies by him.

NutsAboutPS3 · 05-13-2009, 05:25 PM

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

I agree that I miss Arnold movies!

Wolverine1980 ... are we losers? We've been on here all day!

P@t_Mtl · 05-13-2009, 05:28 PM

WOW!

I expected this poll to be a lot closer then that. The governator is sure kicking Sly's butt right now!

Lepidopterous · 05-13-2009, 05:30 PM

Definitely Arnold. Not by a lot though, Sly is a sav.

Have they ever been in a movie together?

bandit29 · 05-13-2009, 05:33 PM

Arnold.

Commando or Predator over any Rambo movie..although First Blood is a great movie.

oh, now it's been downgraded to a mere "discussion".

hmm, maybe you shouldn't be as dramatic in your thread title as the soap opera characters

Dude, you didn't offend anybody. This thread is fun. Pointless, yes. Fun, yes.

Agreed. I don't understand why a few people who think certain threads are so pointless seem to spending a lot of time on it.

connect42 · 05-13-2009, 05:41 PM

I am jealous. You have more free time than me.

I had to go with Arnold. Sly is awesome, but Arnold is on a whole other level.

Yep, Arnold is in The expendables. Out next year I think. And Sly was in True Lies, only as a cardboard cutout, does that count.

Having said that, I think Arnold creates the biggest impression, but John Rambo is a far superior character to anything Arnold has ever played.

Kudos to Dutch though.
