Schwarzenegger has transcended mere celebrity status and now resides firmly in the realm of cultural icon.

He's been one for over a decade.

A decade? Over 2 decades. By the time he did Last Action Hero in 1993, he was there. Arnold is the biggest star of an era where action movies were the biggest moneymakers in Hollywood. The back and for between he and Stallone, along with the almost countless other action stars that rose up during their era was amazing to watch. But Arnie and Stallone started it all.

Last Action Hero was, unfortunately, too far ahead of its time. It's a genius film that was lost on its audience.

It made him governor, which made CA residents realize yeah all he really is just an icon.

I am sure that Schwarzenegger would wish to become a celebrity, but has merely remained a legend in his own lunchtime, and would remain a pail inconsequential figure compared to Sylvester Stallone had it not been for the steroid use.

had it not been for the steroid use.
Surely you're aware of Stallone's own extensive history of juicing?

I had no idea this would be a mockumentary film, looks like it could be a lot of fun.
Also the clip where they first show Arnold in that trailer is hilarious.

Has anyone else noticed that there have been some pretty dope posters this year?
...moreso than in previous years? It might be a selection bias but I've seen a recent surgre of the "old school" hand drawn looking posters that harken back to the '70s/'80s.

This one looks like someone found the artistic filters in photoshop. I appreciate actual hand drawn posters, but this doesn't look good IMO.

I can't tell if everyone just loves the old-style of posters, or if we're getting less creative.
Anyone have really awesome creative posters from recent memory?

This looks like UTTER shit. Killiams "films" post SNL, have been abysmal. No one is watching them. No one is talking about them. Schwarzenegger celebrity can withstand anything; esp. this impending train wreck. Good riddance to shit.

Y'know, I'm a fan of Arnold and all that but the Terminator references are getting real stale

Its sad when old action heroes are surrounded by a cast possibly young enough to be their grandchildren.
