100 man point deduction for not including The Running Man.

I vote Commando. Tooling up on the beach is cool

You know, I've not watched Commando since the late 80's and absolutely loved it. Only recently purchased it on iTunes for very cheap but yet to watch it and now know what to watch tonight.

Commando does not stand the test of time.

Predator all the way baby. Legendary film along with the original Terminator.

Total Recall mostly because it had Sharon Stone in it and I used to fantasise about her a lot back then biggrin

The original Terminator for me. Unlike any of the sequels it has that dark, gritty almost horror film feel to it, and whilst he will never be remembered as one of the acting greats he pulls off the role perfectly. In all seriousness, it is very hard to pull off a memorable and intimidating character who only has a few lines of dialogue. T2 is a very good film, but feels a bit to clean and polished. Predator is a stone cold classic as well, I wish I could have seen this on the opening night with no prior idea of what it was. The first Conan and Total Recall are great, Running Man fun but dated, Eraser is often overlooked as well.




Well, that or Hercules in New York

I voted for Predator, it's timeless, as is The Terminator, Conan the Destroyer, Conan the Barbarian and Red Heat. I do love Total Recall, it's only slightly let down by old VDUs, same with Running Man, which is probably one of the best stories. Commando is fun but hokey.
Big fan of Arnie, I've not met him but mates have. Eraser is a good call too.

Red Sonja is a guilty pleasure. I also like all the Terminator films. Last Stand is good, along with the 6th Day.
I hear Maggie is really good. I also reckon he shows some good range in Escape Plan.

God this is harder than it should be isn't it?! I voted Terminator as I think it stands out as a classic film full stop but then Predator is quite possibly the finest example of it's type.
