One thing to notice from the movie trailer, Arnold being the only Old guy in his team makes him look even older ....

WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Sabotage looks like arnolds best film since he's been back, reviews are mainly positive. Noah looks like the usual overhyped cgi shitfest.

You think Sabotage will hit the 20 mil mark on its weekend release?

WoooSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Noah will win hands down. Looks interesting, lots of suspense, I wonder what happens in the end.

All I hear since the trailer of Sabotage is on rotation is that Arnold looks too old for that type of film.

I'll say the movie will make under $10 millions.

Noah will easily make over $25 millions.

There you have it.

Actually, Arnold was good in it. I'm more of a Sly fan, but I have to admit that Arnold had the superior performance.

I agree, the point is that the movie didn't make the top 5 on i'ts weekend release....

was a commercial disappointment .

WoooSSHHHHHHHH

I'll be happy to see Arnold with the number one movie in the country .

Arnold movie will not fair well against a religious biased movie. Look what mel Gibson's movie about Jesus did.

True, But the Son of God (still in theaters) while hasn't flopped is hasn't been a huge hit either.

noah will win. arnold's movie kinda suck lately. crowe's will have insanely high production value and i bet every old person that sees movies will see it (in addition to the young ppl that see it).

They don't suck but rather than go all out they've only nodded at past greatness. When arnold got the gun near the end of escape plan everyone in the cinema went mad expecting commandesque slaughtering but it was over too quick. The mini gun out the back of the bus scene in the last stand was cool, then again, over too quick. The fight in escape plan between arnie and sly should have been epic but was over too quick.
To be classic they need to have standout epic moments rising above what came before.
Sabotage is meant to be very dark and gritty and a totally different role for arnold but the family orientated noah will stomp it infortunately, its girly man era.

Shit i forgot about escape plan. Been waiting twenty years to see those two in a film together. Would have been INSANE if they did it in the 90's.

Just saw both Arnold and Joe manganiello ....

Arnold very humble and a bunch of girls taking pics with Joe.

Wishing them both good luck this Friday....

Weekend At Arnolds looks like it might be good too. He always did great comedy as well.

Sabotage looks good, but bombed at the box office. I'll definitely check it out on DVD.

As for Escape Plan... It was ok, but they definitely waited too long to do a flick together.
