Fantastic production design, amazing score, hardcore action, and some of the best lines in all of moviedom. (And hear the lamentation of the women! <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/nervous.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":heh:" title="Nervous Laugh    :heh:" data-shortname=":heh:" /> )2) Terminator 2 - Always enjoyed this film more than the first, if only for the groundbreaking special effects, and the fact that Ahnuld is the good guy here. 3) The Terminator - But of course. Still the scariest scifi movie I've ever seen. The guvunah was perfect for this flick. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> 4) True Lies - Wonderful third collaboration with James Cameron. A hilarious action comedy with a brilliant supporting role from Jamie Lee Curtis. Also enjoyed the way it gleefully pokes fun at terrorists.5) Predator - As I said before on the thread on this, the action is cheap, and the testosterone level so high it's laughable. But the title creature itself still makes this one of the guvunah's most memorable flicks. 6) The Running Man - Been awhile since I saw this, but what I remember of it was pretty good. Also has some of Ahnuld's best quotes, despite being mid 80's action cheese.7) Terminator 3 - Unlike most people, I find this a pretty good flick. Props to Nick Stahl and Claire Danes for some fine supporting performances. 8) Twins - Funny movie, and the Ahnuld and DeVito have great chemistry together.9) Commando - 80's cheese yes. But it's good 80's cheese to be sure. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> 10) Total Recall - If it weren't for the excessive gore I would rate this much higher. But it's still one of the better scifi action flicks out there.</blockquote>
