Why was Arnie so much better than Stallone?
>>
>>68628702
Because even with his thick Austrian accent he could still say his lines.
>>
>>68628702
Better film choices. When Arnold did comedy we got Kindergarten Cop and Twins. When Stallone did comedy we got Stop or My Mom Will Shoot.
>>
>>68628702
Because he has charisma
>>
Arnie had better writers and more charisma.

Don't get me wrong I love Stallone but he seems a lot more like a lone-wolf type - he can write a few movies that are really great, but he's not good at working with others. Sly's biggest hits are him vs. someone else, or him by himself.

As opposed to Arnie who usually looks like he has fun with everyone on set.

master race vs pizza race.

thats not a fair race
>>
>>68628702
Stallone made a few truly greats, but Arnie was consistently good.
>>
Stallone's always had to have some degree of creative control. And he's clever enough, but sometimes that can create friction with everyone else.

Arnie's smart enough to know when the more talented force has the better idea and not challenge it with his own (Cameron, Verhoven, Ron Howard, etc)
>>
>>68628787
Stallone did Stop or My Mom Will Shoot because Arnie told him that he really wanted the part and Stallone thought "fuck that im beating him to it" just as Arnie planned
>>
>>68628702

He's bigger and more handsome.
>>
Their dance is such an eloquent analogy for Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany.

Pure pottery.
>>
Stallone isn't very funny and takes himself too seriously. He didn't capture the 80s aesthetic like Schwarzenegger.
>>

But now arnie sucks, and stallone is still afloat

>>
>>68629040
>he didnt watch Maggie
>>
>>68628702
Except Stallone's career is still alive while Arnie is a failed actor that never did anything impressive outisde of meme movies from the 80's

While also being a faggot supporter now that no one cares about him anymore
>>
>>68628993
Probably this. Stallone is very serious about things and tries to portray himself as some kind of legitimate artist. Arnie's personality has always been based on charisma and having fun.

He's just more pleasant to watch, and he had much better movies to work with. Aside from the action schlock and comedy, he's been in stuff like Predator, Total Recall, Terminator 1/2, and Conan the Barbarian that are seen as genre-defining classics.
>>
>>68628702
He got better roles.

Arnold is king of the blockbuster action genre.

There will never be another like him, they tried with Dwayne Johnson.

arnie is still walking around like he's 35 and can kick ass. Stallone has allowed himself to age gracefully

Creed for the win and T5 for the flop
>>
>>68629276
Arnie has about 10 kinos better than cobra.
>>
Arnie is physical and mental perfection. Comes off as very noble.

Arnie was handcrafted Aryan ideal. Sly couldn't play Terminator, for example, because why would Terminator have a lopsided face?

Sly is human and imperfect. Arnie was God. It's like Vegeta and Goku, sort of.
>>
Arnie is the better action star but sly is the better actor
Arnie couldn't pull off the kind of performance from the first Rocky
>>
>>68629028

>>68629176
Those are movies that are good DESPITE having Arnold in it.

No one evere goes: "Oh yeah, remember that movie? I was so caught by Arnold's acting and performance!"

What are you smoking? Arnold's physical presence and body language are his greatest assets and they MAKE movies like Predator and Conan work.

Acting is more about saying lines, it's also about using your body, and Arnold was the master of using his body to convey the film.

Arnie cucked Sly so many times in the 80s lol

Capeshit is on the same level as Arnieshiet.

Actually Capeshit has usually good acting as opposed to Arnold movies.

Why does /tv/ like to suck Arnie's dick so much.I mean he's OK and all but still.

Getting half as big as arnold isn't that hard.
It just takes the slightest bit of dedication.

Arnie pulled shit like that all the time.
When he was at bodybuilding competition in Munich, he convinced his main competitor that screaming was all the rage now while posing.
So the other guy came on stage, flexed his muscles and screamed at the top of his lungs.

The jury shook their heads and Arnie won.
>>
>>68628702
He can sort of act.
>>
Because he had lots of irony and sense of self-deprecating humor which immediately made him more likeable muscle hero than Stallone.
Stallone is like constantly angry-looking guy who thinks he is genius while working on trashy fighting movie
>>
>>68631766
lol

The editing in Cobra is so jerky and bad it has to be seen to be believed. It's like watching a shitty c-grade music video.
>>
>>68628702
People forget a simple fact
Arnie has a charming, charismatic, trustable look.
Young Arnie is what you look for in an action movie and old Arnie looks comfy enough to carry a comedy, a family movie or a supporting role in an action movie.
Stallone lacks the charisma Arnie has mostly related to his face
In a threatening situation Arnie would always be the side most people would choose.
That's what makes him better than Stallone
And his snapchat is perfect
>>
>>68631766
It's like you don't even cut your pizza with scissors.

Arnold is on snapchat? What's his account?

Commando is a masterpiece.

so what are the best for each?

Arnold:
Terminator
Predator
Terminator 2

Stallone:
First Blood Pt 2
Rocky 3
Rocky 4
>>
>>68633614
Terminator is shit.
Great concept, horrible execution.
>>
>>68629969
Goddamn Sly is too based
>>
>>68633694
but that's wrong
>>
>>68633614
Schwarzenegger:
1. Conan the Barbarian
2. The Terminator
3. Predator
4.Terminator 2: Judgment Day
5. Total Recall

Stallone:
1. First Blood
2. Rocky
3. Rocky IV
4. Demolition Man
5. Cliffhanger
>>
>>68629936
Rightly so; it was invented by autistic Finns
>>
>>68633614
Arnold is objectively at his best in Kindergarten Cop
Not his best movie but his best performance, along with Predator and Total Recall
>>
>>68630168
