Best Action Movie of all time is?

[Mike]

@sangre: Yeah I agree arnold is the action goat and the 80s goat.

Conan, terminator, predator, commando, AND the running man and that's off the top of my head

 

[Substance Abuse]

Commando should not be in the top 25. No way. No how.

That said, T2, Aliens, Predator, Die Hard, all make the cut. I would even throw Point Break in the top ten, but maybe the idiocy of that movie just speaks to me more than others, lol.

 

[BlastbeatPete]

Commando
The Rock
Terminator 2

Also, cannot forget Bloodsport.

 

[Joe_Armstrong]

T2 for the win.

 

[That Idiot Tibor**]

Bunch of slacked jawed *********s around here.

 

[puppybird]

My list:

Aliens
Predator
Die Hard
Point Break
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Big Trouble in Little China
Running Man
Terminator
Mad Max
Bloodsport

Off the top of my head

You make me laugh.

If Matrix was here, he'd laugh too.

hard to argue that list. and the one liners alone we could do a thread with Arnold movies greatest one liners. total recall "see you at the party rictor!"

Commando
The Rock
Terminator 2

The rock as in nic cage connery? if so
1. raise your arm out in front of you
2.straighten your hand
3.extend your fingers (touching)
4.raise your chin
5.and slap yo self!


the only nic cage movie worth mentioning is Rasing Arizona. best line " give me that baby you warthog from hell!"

ways Matrix dispatched human excrement in commando

dropped off cliff

Impaled with wooden stake

C-4'd at least two hundred pathetic soldiers that him and bennet could have killed "in the blink of an eye"

Pitch fork through the chest

Dismemberment with axe

Broke neck

multiple double 00 buck, shot gun blasts to center mass of badguy.

M-60 evisceration of puny soldiers

Steam pipe through body.

I know I forgot some.

[Lethal_Striker]

Best Action Movie really comes down to Die Hard or Terminator.

 

[big_hungry_joe]

I see all the usual suspects like Predator and Rambo have been mentioned already. I'm going to have to go with T2.


True Lies doesn't seem to be getting much love in this thread though. IMO it is right up there

 

[kurtwpg]

T2 is solid I just cant place it above the Original.

I can. T2 has an epic quality to it.

I'm taking T2 here. Over Die Hard or any of the others.

Off the top of my head

Yes was going to say Big Trouble in Little China needs to be on the list.
Big Trouble in Little China
Aliens
Predator
T2
Die Hard
Die Hard 2
Road Warrior
Commando
Ong Bak
Raiders of the Lost Ark

Star Wars

T2 is friggin awesome that's not up for debate. but best action movie of all time? I say thee nay! The first terminator like many of Cameron's movies feels real. like there was an actual killer cyborg chasing Sarah through the cyberdyne factory. And the few scenes of the future battles were better than the entire terminator salvation movie. Reese was awesome as the grizzled future warrior even his rank and unit designation sounded legit "Reese! Sgt tech com dn384" " you've Been targeted for termination!"

Popcorn popping time to pull out T1 DVD.

The running man was awesome, point break big trouble wouldn't make my top fifteen. And blood sport because before UFC 1 I really thought a jump spinning crescent kick was a legitimate technique to use if I ever got into a streetfight
