Having seen this film a meaty 6 times in the pictures i decided it was the most stupidly amusing films out and instantly my personal favourite! Just been watchin it there on dvd with a few ale's and its still amazing! Is it possible to dislike this film? Its so stupid and fun its criminal. Its the B-movie equivelant to thrash metal.

Yeah, actually it is possible to dislike it. I thought it was bollocks. Maybe I was expecting something different from it, but it wasn't what I was hoping for.

Still, different strokes for different folks eh?

I thought it was really good. I almost cried at the end when he said the line. The song that goes over the end credits also got me into a Swedish band that I really like now.

It was alright for a B movie but it was so overly-hyped that I didn't enjoy it half as much as I was told I would. Much like Borat tbh.

I loved it because it was shit, and it was meant to be shit and therefore it was wonderfully hilarious. The long-awaited and built-up immortal line from Samuel Motherfuckin' Jackson was a bit of an anti-climax though, that moment could've been done better I think. But it was a humorous experience indeed. Don't know if I'd buy it on DVD though... maybe if it goes down in price to three quid or something (which it surely will) then i'll get it.

agreed!

I just don't buy into the whole Samuel L. Jackson and Schwarzenegger fads that seem to be kicking about the now. Sure, both have been in many fantastic movies but the constant quotation of their parts gets more than a little tedious. It's not as bad as people who try to imitate Borat I guess...

The funny thing is, I know a lot of people who have told me he's actually using some proper languages in there, Polish for example. I speak a bit of Russian and he uses the Russian word храм ('khram') for penis when he should use хрен ('khren'). Obviously there's a butt-load of Cyrillic in there but most of it is jibberish. Still, it's interesting that he gets some words correct.

It's not interesting the way you talk about it.

I don't think it's the fact that they've been in 'fantastic' movies... I think it's more the fact that they've been in some really shit movies (maybe not Jackson so much, but definitely Arnie!), but these movies are so shit they are hilarious and highly quotable. If you want a night of brilliant comedy, watch Schwarzenegger's 'Commando'. I assure you it's the most hilarious experience you'll ever have.

However, I must add that Terminator 2 is amazing and perhaps the only genuinely good film Schwarzengger ever did (apart from Terminator 1 of course, but that isn't quite as good).

Aye, seen Commando a billion times.

'He's dead tired.'

And such like.

I always preferred The Terminator to T2 for some reason. It's more of s suspense film really.

Remember when I said I'd kill you last?


...I LIED.

Terminator 2 is not an amazing film. HOW could that ever be an amazing film? Terminator was quite good but that was probably because it required no acting from Mr Schwarzenegger. No, Arnie film has impressed me a lot, but I haven't seen Total Recall and that might do, I don't know...

How's this for an Arnie quote:

"I saw this toilet bowl. How many times do you get away with this - to take a woman, grab her upside down and bury her face in a toilet bowl? I wanted to have something floating there...The thing is, you can do it, because, in the end I didn't do it to a woman - she's a machine! We could get away with it without being crucified by who-knows-what group!"

Talking about Terminator 3.

Oh, and I ain't seen Snakes yet. Maybe this weekend.

ive still never seen any terminator film
