[MadImmortalMan]

Vin probably has the highest IQ on the list.

Isn't that Dolph?

Sly is supposed to be highly intelligent too.

Sly is supposed to be highly intelligent too.

The man gets sold quite a bit short on that front, rather unfairly IMHO.

[Drakken]

I got to agree, especially when it's stipulated that muscular actors who can really act don't count.

But Sly is an excellent actor, and surprisingly versatile. He best showcased it in Oscar and even in First Blood, which is really a psychological thriller than an action flick.

Yeah, just cast a vote for him and am stunned it's the only one.

I think Copland was his best.

Dolph is awesome in so many ways but he's not a great actor. Voted Stallone, but I don't feel he really belongs on the list.

[CountDeMoney]

I think Copland was his best.

Copland was arguably his best acting since the original Rocky;  but as his career winds down, he's definitely been demonstrating substantially more range (the final Rambo, Creed) almost to the point of making you ask, "Where the hell has THIS Stallone been all this time?"

Either Arnold Schwarzenegger or Stallone.  The trouble with Arnold is that the Chinese translation contains seven characters, and most Chinese names have only 2-4 characters.  In Chinese custom, the translated name usually only contains the last name.  In his case, Schwarzenegger is already five characters long.  Somehow the powers that be insist that his first name be added to an already long, 5-character name. 

Stallone's name is only 3 characters long in Chinese, but it is a really good translation - Si Tai Long.  Si is a real Chinese surname.  Tai is the name of the most mighty mountain in ancient China.  Long is dragon.  It is a very powerful sounding name and also easy to remember. 

I have to go with the governor of California though.  That's just awesome.

That is not a really good translation. His name doesn't mean Mountain-dragon, it means the first private area when you enter a restroom. Stall One. (Actually it's Italian for stallion, so you should be using something horsey).

Dolph went to MIT or some such, didn't he?

E:  Oh.  "Just" a Fulbright Scholarship to MIT, didn't actually go there. 

[MadImmortalMan]

You have to admit Arnold took what little he was given and made an incredible life out of it. I can't think of anyone more driven.

I agree, but still don't think he was actually good.  He's just not an actor.  A star, maybe, but no actor.  Think of what  Philip Seymour Hoffman could have done with Stallone's role in Copland.

Dolph is a god. Anyone voting for anyone else is either trolling this poll or an idiot.

Not only is he powerful and beautiful, he is very smart, a master chemist and mixologist. Some thugs also broke into his house, realized who they were playing, and took their dishonest asses straight up out of there before Dolph educated them on honesty.
