Arnold Schwarzenegger vs. Sylvester Stallone: Who had the better '80s filmography? Strictly 80s, between them two who was the bigger star? Explain.

i can't give arnold full credit for predator. what made predator special was the predator. the predator is what made that movie what it was.

Definitely not full credit for Arnold. But the Predator was in a lot of movies after that one and none of them came close to being as great as that first one. That first one was just a great movie all around. The setting, the cinematography, the score, cast of characters, etc. But Arnold def did his part in making it a classic. He has at least 3 iconic lines in that movie alone that people still say till this day.

"Get to tha choppa"
"If it bleeds, we can kill it"
"You are one ugly motherfukker"

I know he prob didn't write those but his delivery of one liners was

Terminator kinda puts Stallone on Ice.

Predator as a movie too. Love both though, neck and neck to me with Arnold edging him out. I think Arnold may be more well rounded as a person too. Bodybuilder, classics in different genres of movies (Kids, Comedies, sci-fi, action), then Governor…


Even got his half-latino kid in acting
