Too old. No one would care past the first movie he stars in.

Arnold's heydey on the silver screen jumped the shark a long time ago.

how do you jump over a shark, and how is it some clever term?

It's phrase like when an actor or the producers of a successful television show choose a stupid concept in the later stages of it's tenure or career. Or, when a sucessful TV series takes a weird turn.

It's also an actual reference to an episode of 'Happy Days'. After so many successful seasons, the show was beginning to get stale. The producers came up with the idea that Fonzi would get on water ski's and launch himself off of a ramp and over a great white shark. It's was an absolutely ridiculous episode because Fonzi was skiing in a black leather jacker with no pants. After that episode aired, the show began to tank with low ratings.

hence the term...that actor/show 'jumped the shark.'

Sly has enjoyed new success, Mickey Roarke, Robert Downey junior. How can anyone really doubt Arnold.
Most of the buzz is positive for his return

Difference between those guys and Arnold is that those guys were actors. They didn't live on their built alone.

Arnold's built is gone, so his acting movie career is gone.

He isn't too old - if Clint Eastwood can still pull it off in films like Gran Torino and Michael Caine can do it in Harry Brown then I'm pretty sure there are roles for Arnold out there.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA have you seriously just compared Clint Eastwood and Michal Caine to Arnold?? :D

One more time, those guys are ACTORS. Arnold was a guy with huge arms and chest standing in front of a camera. Huge difference.

If Arnold was so bad how was he the highest paid actor? If huge chest and arms was all that mattered there would be a hundred Arnolds.

Blasphemy!!  Arnolds still got it!!!  He would be excellent playing some retired soldier or cop out for blood because someone killed his family!

I would have Arnold play an old guy who has to live in a retirement community.  He would play his alpha male status to the hilt owning everyone and eventually capturing the Whispering Oaks Retirement home Body Building plastic trophy.  At the end Ferrigno walks in and leaves us for the part 2 cliffhanger.

Arnold's built is gone, so his acting movie career is gone.
'I really don't  understand how people don't understand this.
I might be half retarted but I still am human enough to see his bad acting. I swear some fuck gotta really be a lot more fucked than I ever thought.

Arnold got plenty of practice being an actor while running the state of California, so i'm sure he isn't too rusty LOL

he's still got box office power for sure.

Have you been frozen in ice for the last 30 years?


how did they shoot this, i heard he was so afraid of motorcycles that they had to pull him sitting on a stationary motorcycle on the back of a flatbed when they shot scenes of him riding. i guess that's whatr happens when you get a jew to play a guido, aka andrew dice clay.

If Arnold was so bad how was he the highest paid actor?

Because many wanted to see him and his movies.

Nowadays when he has lost it all, not many would want to see him. Not credible in actionmovies anymore due to old age.

Sly and Mickey Rourke are still somewhat credible though (in actionroles)

Arnold Schwarzenegger announces return to the silver screen

To discuss click here - 4 Comments
Former governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger is planning a comeback—in Hollywood, that is. “Exciting news,” the 63-year-old wrote on Twitter. “My friends at CAA (Creative Artists Agency, his talent firm) have been asking me for 7 years when they can take offers seriously. Gave them the green light today.” The actor-turned-politician finished his second term as governor last month, leading to speculation as to whether he’d continue in politics or resume his acting career in Hollywood.

If he were to get a real role that would make him work hard and be good in it...so no expendables, explosions, or shirtless roles.

I don't think I need to see Arnold on screen anymore. His governoring just ruined my impression for good.

Plus, he was never really that good.

Downey Jr. is a top notch actor. Although Arnold still has a place on the silver screen.
