Schwarzenegger Week: Action and One-liners

Greeting readers aboard and near.   I thought we would take in a few action flicks starring a former Mr. Olympia to marrying a Kennedy to becoming Governor of California.  Not bad for a guy people claim to not understand when he talks.  Yes, I speak of the 6'3" Austrian Oak or Conan the Republican, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The first successful cybernetic organism!

Seven-time Mr. Olympian and five-time Mr. Universe striven to make it in Hollywood.   With a few stinkers such as Hercules in New York, the campy western The Villain and Stay Hungry.  Meeting with writer/director John Milius (Jeremiah Johnson Dirty Harry, Magnum Force, 1941, Conan the Barbarian, Red Dawn and Farewell to the King) to tackle the iconic pulp fiction barbarian savage known only as Conan of Cimmeria.  Milius had seen Stay Hungry and was marveling that the sheer size of Schwarzenegger and wondered if he could act for a big budgeted Dino De Laurentiis film based on Robert E. Howard's creation.

From Milius to James Cameron, Schwarzenegger proceed to rocket up the celebrity status alongside his competition of Sylvester Stallone and Bruce Willis starting a business chain of restaurants with movie memorabilia Planet Hollywood became a huge success.

With the latter years have a few scandals and hiccups down the road, the Govenator heads back to the cinema and to the subject matter that had made his career with Stallone's Expendables, The Last Stand and Sabotage.  It took him a bit to get where he is so chances are he is not walking away without a fight.
