-No, just bodies, sir.

Commando, even though i don't have it but have predator.
* The chase with the Porsche and the little red car, the Porsche is all banged up in one scene and perfect the next and so on for a few shots. - Vic
* Just after the wrecked Porsche, when Arnold is holding a bad guy over a ledge, you can see the cable attached to his ankle. - Billy Voltaire
* In one scene, when a soldier gets shot and falls off of roof you can see the safety mattress that he lands on. - David
* When Arnie blows up parts of the baddie compound, you can see the bad guys are just dummies on poles. - David
o Addition: Indeed, even when the house blows up right behind them shooting debris and stuff all over, they won't budge. Talk about standing in guard. - Webmaster
* When Arnold blows up some bad guys who then fly through the air, you can clearly see the air ramps that launch them up. - David
o Addition: Yes, it is in the scene, where Arnold throws his first hand grenade.
* When the car crashes, the dummy posing as Rae's head comes off. - Troy
* The line of bullets going into Arnie's gun grows and shrinks throughout the final shootout. - David
* In one scene Arnie jumps behind bushes, and bullets hit the bushes but they don't hit him. I guess they were bulletproof bushes. - David
* Why does Arnie go around blowing up a compound that his daughter is in? He was never told what building she was in, couldn't he have blown her up in the process? - David
* When Arnie is captured by the police, Rae fires a missile at the truck he is in to save him. Why on Earth would someone try to save their friend by firing a missile at the truck they are in? - David
* When they blow up the boat near the start of the movie, as it pulls away, you can see the detonation wires (they don't blow it up with remote control as they want you to believe) - jpb
* When Arnold escapes out of the airplane and lands in the marsh (which I doubt anyone would survive since he's traveling over 100mph, but anyway...) he starts the countdown function on his watch and it beeps for each second, yet we don't here the beeps ever again. - floyddog
* During the slaughter towards the end of the movie, Arnie aims to the right, from out of the jungle. Soldiers are clearly seen mistiming their deaths on the left of him. - Matt S
* When Arnold kidnaps Rae and steals her car to chase after on of the bad guys, at the end of the chase the crashes into a tree. The both of them aren't wearing any seat belt, but amazingly they both stay on their seats. (TV) - Soulman
* After Arnold has just drop a bad guy off a cliff, he and Rae takes the bad guy's car which is on it's side and all dented up. When he brings the car down on all fours, no dents. (TV) - Soulman
* When Arnold is storming the compound his daughter is being held at, he plants explosives beside several buildings. When the explosives are detonated the buildings explode from the inside. - Todd Stewart
* Not sure about this one, I saw this movie some time ago, but I remember when the girl ask for help on the radio of the plane, she says a different number than the license of the plane. - BiK
* Arnold has too many guns at the last part. A man can't have 1349084 guns. - JDH83
o This is no ordinary man - we're talking about Ah-nold, who can never have too many guns on him.
* (Crew/equipment visible) When Bennett drops Matrix (Arnold S.) off at the airport, you can see the camera crew in the reflection in the window of the car he drives off in. (TV) - Webmaster
* (Continuity) When Matrix drives the little red car, he hits a van with the back of the car causing a hubcap to fall off. In the next shot the hubcap is back on. (TV) - Webmaster
* (Continuity) When Matrix gets on the seaplane at the docks some bad guys fire at it, bullets hit the plane leaving bullet holes around the entrance door. Later on when Matrix gets off the seaplane, the bullet holes are gone. (TV) - Webmaster
* (Continuity) When Matrix puts on all his commando gear, he has a pair of binoculars around his neck. In the next scene when he walks up a hill the binoculars hang at the height of his balls. Later on the binoculars are gone altogether. He could have ditched them, though. (TV) - Webmaster
* (Crew/equipment visible) When Arnold is leaving the mall, he backs up to chase the guy, you see the cameraman's reflection in the car door. - GringoMike
* (Revealing mistakes) When Rae shoots the rocket launcher the wrong way into a parked car trying to save Matrix from the police van, there's no recoil from the launcher, but when she shots it the right way she falls back from the recoil. - padextra
* (Factual errors) When Matrix gets in his truck at the start of the movie (which has had all it's wires and brakes cut) and it is "rolling" down the hill with the "engine off" to chase the bad guys - you can see the brake lights come on a few times and at the end of it's journey you can see grey smoke coming out of the exhaust (as opposed to lots of brown dust). - Russ
* (Continuity) When Arnie crashes his truck following the kidnappers he's out and running almost before the crash settles.
* (Continuity) When Arnie goes into the garden shed before the soldiers shoot at the shed to clear it, u see him take off his vest cause he's shot. He has black camouflage lines on his torso, but when he's loading up his guns when he's on the beach by the raft, he gears up, then he puts on the camo paint last. - stephen
* (Continuity) When Matrix gets hit by a car while fleeing the Galleria you can see his wallet fly out of his pocket. Later he produces the same wallet to show a picture of Jenny. - HAFAB
Commented Goofs
* When Arnold is arrested after stealing all the guns and ammo, the cops never handcuff him. I'm sure the police would cuff a big muscle guy that was stealing enough guns and ammo to blow up a small country. - Floyddog
o Addition: Arnold drives a tractor into an army weapon storage facility to steal the guns & ammo. How come there is no security anywhere? The storage facility should be guarded 24/7. When the cops finally get there, there are only 2 of them. Where is the swat team, the FBI guys and all the dozens of police officers, who usually surround places like that in situations like this. - Webmaster
+ Comment: He doesn't break into a compound to steal guns, if you look at the big flashing neon sign (literally) it says "surplus city" it is an army surplus store. - stephen

predator
this is the making of predator, scroll to min.7 sunny has that psychodelic laughter going on, awesome.
-
predator.
-
Commando for sure. Bennett is the best worst bad guy ever.
hold your tongue, woman.
bennett, is the greatest, movie villain ever.
-
HAHA, the video link of making of predator is hilarious, Carl Weathers talking about getting up at 4am and training so he could walk on set with the pump and look naturally jacked ;D And Jesse Ventura saying that when they hit wardrobe his arms measured an inch bigger than Arnolds, classic stuff, those guys all sound like getbiggers in that video ;D
-
Predator.
Commando was good too but seems a bit lame in comparison to Predator.
-
Predator is much better
Commando has more funny lines though
- he's dead tired
- I let him go
- let off some steam bennet
-

I dont deny predator is the better film, though on entertainment and fun factor then its closer, hard to choose, im still mulling it over ;D

i think predator is a better movie, but commando has more replay value so i would go with that
tough decision for sure :-\

If it's his favorite movie villain he should learn to write his name correctly. :-\
Nothing in Predator can top 2 classic Commando moments: the mall mayhem and the final attack on the island.

If you could only keep one on dvd which would it be?
Holy hell! That's a tough call...
UGH! I couldn't tell you.

Greatest quote from Commando:
Luther from The Warriors: ... I really have something I'd like to show you.
Rae Dawn Chong: ...from here it looks like a nightmare, will you please leave me alone?!?!
Luther from The Warriors: You Fucking Whore!

Commando...because of one scene....when he drops that annoying little shrimp off the cliff.
-
predator is far from being just a popcorn action movie, it's just the best action movie ever.
i could watch it ten times in a row.

-

Predator

Predator. It's not even close. Seriously, I cant believe this is even a thread. ::)
-
;D
-
Predator. I have watched that movie more than any other movie.
Arnold was like 40 in Predator....and totally jacked and youthful looking for his age.
Predator has the best music too
"you're an asset! An expendable asset. And I used you to get the job done. Got it!" -Dillon
-
Commando is a fun movie to watch but it's a little over the top at times.
Predator is a straight up great action movie, very well made and underrated.
Both can be found at your local Walmart in the $5 bin ;D
-
Commando is a comedy. It has no plot to speak of... it's a series of memorable one-liners, but that's about it.
Predator is a very underrated drama that has actual artistic value... serious kick-ass film.
-
Commando easily...it was the quintessential 80s red meat eating ass kicking movie. Commando created an entire genre of one liner steroid filled action movies. Plus if this movie was reality there would be no illegal immigrants in America to cut lawns and clean bathrooms Arnold killed an entire army of Mexicans.
Plus one of the best movie drinking games of all time is derived from commando.

what this thread makes me realise, is, just how fucking great 80s action films were. infact, just how fucking awesome the movies were in the 80s full stop.

Haha I can still remember being shocked and awe-struck when I saw that scene for the first time. I was 13 and the next day, I joined a gym and never looked back, lol.

realistically Predator is the better movie. but Commando is probably the most 'fun' movie of all time, it is the absolute pinnacle of the '80's action' genre and is a truly unique film that features scenes, lines, and ridiculous characters which all together became something that its makers probably never intended it to. its a one of a kind movie that could never, ever be recreated

I didn't get it, can you translate for me, what did he say?

It's still a predator movie and they cast a twink as the hero :'(
-
Predator.
Commando is good, but Predator is great.
-
even as a kid I knew Bennet was no match for Arnold & that the oak would easily handle him...
but there were many times during the predator movie were I thought man how's Arnold gonna pull this one out...
-
sorry but commando is aging badly, even the jokes and oneliners.
Predator didnt age at all.

I agree with you but look at the larger picture. What this means is that big money is getting back into the Predator franchise! Robert Rodriguez makes big budget movies that kick ass. Adrien Brody is an award winning actor. Hopefully this means better production, graphics, story, etc as alarge mainstream money investment has been made. Sadly, in today's witch hunt and female dominated culture it's not 'safe' to make movies with huge muscular alpha men. Maybe things will change... :-\
-
HAHA, Im so far in your head that I should be paying you rent
Stop taking this place so seriously Mr teabagger.... so seriously it prevents you from showing your face on here... like many before you on, pumpster (oldmanism), davidpaul (muslimsim) & co.... and for the same reason.
-
-Any sight of Matrix?
-No, just bodies, sir.
classic line.....COMMANDO by a mile!!

ahh yer right, terminator salvation had 2 fantastic actors and it's a great movie despite the lack of musclemen

back in the 87 predator was fresh, new, exciting

It's because he is nothing to look at, and this is after all, a bodybuilding site.
EVERY person that was ever "outed" was a tiny tit or a fatbody. Draw your own conclusions on the remaining anonymous posters
I've said it a hundred times...if you are going to be a "character" or a giant ball-breaker, have the stones to put YOUR self out there for criticism or you are just a pussified gnat buzzing around the real Getbiggers

I agree with you that Hollywood just keep remaking the same shit over and over and there are very few original movies anymore , but Predator is a movie that can be like James Bond and have a ongoing series it's a pretty timeless idea .
-
1# Predator first because I saw it first when i was in 3rd grade and got away with watching HBO when parents weren't around. And it inspired me to look into shopping for army surplus goods a few years later into. Also the first Arnold film I watched in full since Terminator at age 5 only to be scared off to my room for the rest the night after Arnold popped his eyes out in the sink.
2# Commando because parts were filmed on the beach I frequented as a child (San Simeon) and because there is that scene where he's blockaded in the shop house and he kicks the door open to hack the arm off with a machete and throw the saw blade at that dudes face. They slowed down the pace of the film to show the blade scalp half his face off.
Boom! Look what I found! Damn! they just dont make movies like they used to!
-
Predator all the way. Commando was good in its day, but it doesn't hold up as well as Predator does.
-
The making of Predator, 2:14, how Arnold tricked Jesse into thinking he had bigger arms than him - fucking hilarious ;D
-
wtf does he say? 2.30
they should tell him that, so i can bet the boboff paint of when he comes to the gym ???
2.45
of course we should, let's better barber in paint ???
2.54 he says something again after WTF

there's a rare cut to be seen from that scene. when he chops the baddies arm off, arnie uses the bloody arm to batter even more baddies, lol.

I doubt it. Once the novelty wears off (and it will) it'll end up being like one of the million vampire movie/tv variations out there
Whatever happened to creating something new and original rather than rehash the same stuff over and over

ive heard of this but never seen it, any idea where it can be found?
-

Im not sure it ever made it out of the cutting room, the scene went (iirc) he cuts the guys arm off, the guy lays on the floor crying and Arnie tells him to stop being such a baby and beats him to death with his own arm ;D
-
There is an extended version (might still be on Youtube) but it doesn't have the arm beating thing, just shows the bad guys screaming and suffering a little longer, which slows down the movie.

no contest
I totally agree. Some people get carried away finding the accidental humour of Commando makes it an actually good film, when in reality it is awful, although not un-entertaining. But Predator holds up as a real movie, which can be watched without irony and still hold up as a real piece of film making.

I just watched predator again, fantastic movie 8)
-
Better action movie, Predator or Die Hard?
-
better quotes in Commando, like:
''Thank you. And do me a favor...Don't disturb my friend. He's dead tired.''
but overall i would go with Predator
-

"Throw away"... HAHA, ok 'tough guy'...
Commando was an iconic Action satire... I bet you're the kinda "guy" who watches Matrix flip a telephone booth and go "pff that can't be real, the cables would hold it down..." ::)

Die hard. Greatest Christmas film ever, apart from Gremlins.

"That son of a bitch is dug in deeper than an Alabama tick and it's the 23rd already and I STILL don't know what to get for Dutch. I SO don't have time to bleed."
-
Predator all the way.

Like if Carl Weathers had a little christmas tree on his desk when Arnold comes in.
"Got ya some Cubans 'cause I know how much you love 'em."
"Dylan, you stinker! We said no presents!"
-
Predators was the best movie of the 80's besides maybe full metal jacket. Action or no action. It held the test of time, to me it's the start of the modern movie era. Arnold was at his best, look great, acted well within his range. On top of that you got the best cast of action dudes on film. A film of badasses all round, It's as muscle driven as you can get without being a shit movie, and it's a sci fi really. So it's in my find best man film, sci fi, and best of the 80's.
-
Predator
-
What happens if one was to say neither? To Arnold's movie career is all about the first Terminaor and the first Conan. The rest means shit to me.
-
I like sexual predators but also like going commando
Hmmm, im on the fence with this one...

Predator is top five action movies of the 80s and top ten of all time. It sits in good company with Die Hard, Aliens, Lethal Weapon, First Blood and Empire Strikes Back.
-
Its a tough one, but I have to go with Predator.
