I can't decide between Terminator, Total Recall and Predator. I quite like Kindergarten Cop, Conan the Barbarian, T2 and Last Action Hero as well, if not as much.

I think the Last Action Hero gets a bum rap;  not only an awesome fucking soundtrack, but I think Arnie did a great job spoofing himself, the movie industry and bigger-than-life action flicks in general.

Maybe not as good as Tom Cruise did at spoofing himself in Knight & Day, but it was good.
Agree.

At any rate, Conan the Barbarian, True Lies and Total Recall are his best films, although I have a soft spot for the one-liners in The Running Man.

Who voted for Kindergarden Cop?  :lol:
It's a legitimate choice.  That's a good film.

Actually, it is.  Funny, action-packed, endearing. A true gem.

Terminator 2.

It's not close to his best, but I kinda liked The Sixth Day.  It's dumb, but BFD.  I think it got more criticism than it deserved.

Yep.  Quoted approvingly by the professor in a tutorial on Hamlet.  'To be or not to be?  Not to be' (throws grenade into Elsinore) :lol:

Total Recall, T, T2 and Predator.
Let's bomb Russia!

1.  Total Recall
2.  Terminator 2
3.  Predator
4.  Terminator
5.  Conan the Barbarian

Though I have a soft spot for The Running Man--it was the last movie CollegeGirlFriend and I saw together (obviously, a few years after I was out of college).

True Lies.  Twins runs a close second for me. :blush:

Also, it has Big Gun on the soundtrack. :punk:

Can't decide between Conan and T2 for the first spot. Total Recall #3, Predator #4, True Lies #5.

I just don't get the True Lies love. I remember finding it pretty meh.
