    So, I saw that new Arnold movie The Last Stand last night.

    Apparently it's doing REALLY REALLY BAD at the box office (it didn't even crack the top 10 at the box office in its opening weekend) but I don't understand, I thought it was a decent movie. It's not absolutely incredible, but I found it was a good start to arnold's return to films and acting. Some great action in it, awesome stunt driving, and some good humor sprinkled into it. It's not epic or ground breaking, but it worked.

    Although not anywhere near as great as Dredd, I guess maybe it suffered from the same thing Dredd did, which was very poor pre-release advertising.

    Arnold has been and will be my all time favorite action hero actor. He has had some of the best movie titles ever. But, there comes a time to let go. Ever since t3, I found Arnold out of date. Let it go old bro. . . Lol

    I agree

    After being the Governator you can't return and be a badass. Plus he looks like what Sly shits out.

    I'd like to see it although previews were meh.


    Thing is there's been no one to replace Arnold. The heavily muscled action star is no more. The new Conan looked like a sissy and moved like a bafoon.

    People have forgotten that he makes movies and yes, it was not advertised enough. I saw a lot of previous while I was watching other movies, but next to no previews on tv.

    People also think he is just old and dont even bother giving him a chance.

    Saw it Friday night. It was......ok. Typical Arnold movie...plenty of explosions, heavy one liners, bad acting and limited comedy! Johnny Knoxville saved the movie honestly and should have been featured more!

    Poor Arny looks soooo old, but I would be fine looking like that at his age!

    The big 3 are all trying to rake in on their old fame. Bruce Willis in yet another die hard movie and I'm excited to see Sly's upcoming film. I cant afford GH but someone promise me thats how I will look at nealy 70 and I'll rob a friggin bank!
