Title: 1982 Olympia
Post by: gibberj2 on August 17, 2006, 04:39:15 AM
I'm watching a video of the 1982 Olympia and I can't believe this. Anyone else think the judges were high on LSD?

if you are talking about dickerson beating out bannout, then i fully agree.  dickerson was a great bber, but bannout looked great that year.

Not only that. Zane in 2nd?! Come on! He had zero legs and his abs weren't even sharp. Makkawy was better than him. Bertil Fox looked like a monstrosity and he got 8th. I think they picked the winners randomly.

for zanes size, he was proportioned.  fox would have done better about 5 years later.

Ask the same question to the director on Conan the barbarian Franco had a part in that as well for about 2secs.What Arnold wants Arnold gets.Just looks good in the history books Arnold winner 1980 and Franco 1981.Dickersons was a retirement gift in 82.Got it right in 83.IMO.

What does this have to do with a 2 second part for Franco in Conan? Franco was perfect for that character, they even hid the fact that the guy was short. He didn't say anything and swung around a big hammer.

My point he did the same in 1981 Olympia.

it's a non speaking part. franco gets killed at the very end. it's when arnold and that asian thief guy set some traps and stand to fight at the end. the guy (franco) sees a helmet sticking up and smashes it thinking it's Conan and this spike comes out from a trap Conan set and runs him through.

maybe so...But how many others that were actual actors tried to get that part?  I guess we will never know...And it just goes to show just how much power Arnold had even in the entertainment business...

no actors were even close to franco's build. he was jacked in that movie. really thick. it was a non speaking part. all you need is a body.

I would agree with him being screwed. but why would Arnold have anything to do with it?

there was some funky stuff going on with the judging panel if I remember right, one of the reasons alot of guys didn't show up at the 81 olympai was because they had a problem with the guys judgeing the shows...I want to say they were all buddies with arnold but I don't really remember.
