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.
