Title: Arnold Schwarzenegger bails out on Denver supplements firm, MusclePharm.
Post by: dantelis on May 10, 2016, 09:31:17 AM
Better drop your stock in Musclepharm if you have any.  Without Arnold, it'll drop like a stone.


"After three years of working together, Arnold Schwarzenegger says he's ending his relationship with a Denver supplements company.

Schwarzenegger said there's been too much drama at MusclePharm Corp. in the last few months."

I wonder how much they paid him?  Arnold gets more than $20 million per movie.  How could they even afford him?

Arnold didn't make 20 millions with Last Stand ,Sabotage,Maggie, escape plan? Expandables etc all combined .

What's worse is that none of those flicks made decent money at theaters either.

Arnold is the biggest ticket only in bodybuilding. And bodybuilding is breathing with assistance.

Arnold's movies where tanking before he became one of California's crappiest leaders. I will say last stand was pretty good. However Arnold had his day and now it's over. Unless he teams up with Jim Cameron he will never have another big hit movie.

I'm pretty sure at one point Arnold was the highest paid actor.

Regardless, Arnold does actually seem to care about fitness and bodybuilding. Unlike many of the modern all-drugs lifters, working out feeds his soul like it does with a lot of the old timers who continue to lift despite the absence of plastic trophies.

Arnold was the highest paid actor for a long while actually, I'd say ten years!! from 1987 Predator to 1997 Batman & Robin,  but that was  20 years ago ....

No wonder he's back to his 'true love" and on the Muscles & fitness cover ...there he will always be a blockbuster .

He's addicted to the limelight (albeit fucking crap apps front man), everything that goes with it like shit acting & will never retire. He's be doing shit like this until he's dead.

This is part of who he is.

He's a true type A.

It would be more shocking to hear Arnold just decided to hang it all up and live on vacation mode. Look at where he came from to what he did... it's make a great case for genetic basis to be ultra-driven.

It's possible to work and continue to grow one's wealth without shilling bodybuilding supplements or acting in some third rate movie.  Philanthropy would be a great way for Arnold to spend his final years, or at least some respectable business venture

I used to think Arnold was one of the greatest Americans of all time but his legacy has nosedived ever since that incident with the maid

Arnold didn't become highest paid until into the 90's.

arnold will never retire, like he said, "retire from what, having fun?"

Arnold has a governors pension that's enough to live on. He loves being relevant.  Living in obscurity would kill him.

Post by: oldschoolfan on May 11, 2016, 08:51:44 PM
i dont think arnold has as much money as people thinks he does now

he is doing things for money he never would have done 15 years ago.  

but he hasnt had a hit movie  in 13 years and if you go back   terminator 3 is the only movie he headlined  in almost 20 years that did well.


the divorce from maria didnt help him either.  he will never be a box office draw again .

hopefully for him they make king conan on a modest budget and it does well.   they should try to make it for 50 million,  not 200 million

like the last terminator

His net worth is still close to 200 million, his problem... he loves the attention.
Maggie was actually not bad, The last Stand as well, just don't watch his older movies, today's just can't compare.

Arnold made about 30 mil for movie Twins ( 1988) .

Back in the day He got a high percentage of ticket sales too.

There was a time, yes ... but those days are long over.

Today, Arnold must accept the "scraps" of a once-elite Hollywood command.

Still lots of moolah (to put it mildly), but a mere pittance of what was once his take.

Stallone's the '80s muscleman star coming out on top.

Sad but spot on .

Stallone landed an Oscar Nomination this year ...

Today, Arnold has a hand full of recent movies in the $ 4.99 bin  at Walmart since his "comeback" to Hollywood... anyone 30 years or younger couldnt care less if Arnold steps aside or make another movie

Do any movie stars make as much as anyone in the 90's? The Internet killed it a lot. Seinfield and Friends stars were the highest paid TV show actors right before the net took off. Nowadays no-one is doing what they did.
