hercules in new york was 1969,  stay hungry 1976,  pumping iron 1977,    pumping iron two 1985.

hey Funk,    Pumping Iron featured Arnold building up to and competing in the 1975 Mr. Olympia, and Stay Hungry was filmed before that.

your right i just put down the release dates. sometimes a movie lays in the can a long time before it's actually released.
