Schwarzenegger is an adulterer and a race traitor.
Agreed, but he’s been in some great films e.g. Predator, Terminator, Total Recall etc.Originally Posted by Elizabeth

I've seen him in only three films, but not those three. The three I saw, all on tv, were Conan the Barbarian, Kindergarten Cop, and Twins.
As is once again visible by the conversation here :
cinematic quality and how a person is in real life often do not have to be positive both at the same time . . .
^ ^ . . by the way, talkin' 'bout that a person may be a 'hit' in one field but not necessarily in another one , I can't help but mention another example . .
. . Hulk Hogan aka Terry Bollea ( real name )
Now , even if one could consider the wrestling-business ( of which he undoubtedly was the most famous star ) as some kind of 'theatre' , in my opinion , honestly , he sucked in many movies . .
Quite an irony one might think since at one point in his career he referred to himself as 'Hollywood Hogan'.
Just because someone may be huge in one field wouldn't necessarily have to mean he would automatically huge in another field. I think it all comes down to talent . .
On a side note . . should some fans of Bollea not like this opinion , he himself admitted in an old bio- docu that he didn't really picture himself a some kind of movie- star and could even understand critics . .
If you're interested , here' s the link.
( the part on movies is at 24:30 )
^ ^ On this shirt from his New World Order days, though , he combined the alledged 'New World Order of wrestling' inscription with probably one of the most famous images of movie- history. You know, when the T-800, after a truck he was in was set on fire, emerges from the flames phoenix-from-the-ashes-style . . :D
Once again ,concerning above statement , still somewhat peculiar that Bollea ( Hogan ) drew in large audiences for the ( scripted ) wrestling business but then wasn't very good at something , gotta admit , a bit similar , the 'world of drama' , movie- acting . . Well, the reason though may be that the wrestling- business is a bit 'closer to the people' .
Okay , again , concerning the person about whom this thread originally is . .It could also be said about Schwarzenegger that he may have had success in movies but , above all , was a crappy politician

As an actor he is average. I think he was able to build on the initial D grade films he made, obviously he was very ambitious, I saw a clip of him talking about his success. From the start he aimed to become a body building champion and make films. He didn't want to have a workers life in Germany.
Like a lot of these ambitious types he does what is needed for himself to progress.
I grew up on a belief of honour, courage and the old world values. The world isn't about that anymore, preferring to die a slow death of fast food and cheap thrills.
I wouldn't expect them to put a 'Great White' into that kind of movies. So Arnold was somehow ideal for them. Not to dumb, but also not to bright. Just impressive physique and some average communication skills (ideal for the roles he's playing). Also not prone to be too politically incorrect. Doubt he will take a stance on who is calling the shots in Hollywood. And with the maid in the closet, he wasn't to prone to speak out against some sexual misconduct by Hollywood figures neither.
Actually I'd say, in my opinion, Total Recall was one of the best movies ever made , maybe even the best , at least with a fascinating plot . .
Did a thread about it on VNN . .https://vnnforum.com/showthread.php?t=550733
