I have it on a 2-on-1 DVD with The Final Countdown which I rescued from a charity shop for 30p in a burst of insanity.

Arnie. It's not about the acting, it's all about the action. Plus too many of Stallone's films take themselves way too seriously. (Actually I love them both, but "Predator", "Terminator", "True Lies", "Total Recall", "The Running Man", "Last Action Hero"..... "Cactus Jack" Oooops! )

First Blood
Rambo (4)
Ants
Cop Land

Cliffhanger
F.I.S.T
Death Race 2000

Arnie
Terminator 2
The Terminator
Predator
Total Recall
True Lies
Conan The Barbarian
Terminator 3
The Running Man
Commando

And the Cons:
- Sly -
Rhinestone
Stop of My Mom'll Shoot
Staying Alive
Driven
Spy Kids 3D
Rocky V
Over The Top
Cobra
Get Carter
Rambo III
Judge Dress
The Specialist

I really like Schwarzy in Terminator, Predator and Conan. But Stallone is just a better actor. Nobody can deny it. He is also a very crafted director and writer. My vote goes for him!

The poll is neck and neck at the moment. Rambo v Terminator. In the end there can be only one.

Stallone's the better all-rounder.He gave great performances in Rocky & Copland,he is a decent action director as he proved with Rambo & a capable writer.I thought Rambo 3.Cobra,Judge Dredd & D-Tox were fine myself.Tango & Cash always seems underrated too.
