The best scene from Pumping Iron!!

[MikeThaMachine]

In the pump up room...Lou said a few words and Arnold lashes back with..."Shhh...no talking. It's supposed to be like a church here...quiet"

 Lou got owned and got real quiet.

Lou was owned atleast two dozen times throughout that movie if not more, now he takes it out on little kids and charges them $20 for a photo, whose owning who now.

Arnold laughs at him cuz he grunts like a moron while he trains with a 60lbs barbell.

I believe you are right...I am afraid to say. I guess Louie never got over the viscious and brutal owning Arnold put on him throughout the entire movie. He never let it go it appears....now little kids and foolish 'fans' MUST PAY!

 I believe if Pumping Iron was never made...Lou might be giving away his pics and autographs for FREE everytime and would be very friendly and cordial with 'fans'.

[Jr. Yates]

  could you imagine! Lou giving stuff away?? but if he wasn't in pumping iron no one would no him, they should have gave his part to serge nebret.

Its cool when they are watching franco pose, and Robby Robinson calls Franco

"Franco The Back"

oh, and who could forget that classic line:

"Franco's pretty smart, but Franco's a child"

Arnold was owning everyone in that movie

That's what I thought! Like a bat's wing spread or something. I don't know...

[Hulkster]

maybe your right.

I'll have to ask one of the ironagers

[thisiskeith12]

"because Louie is waiting for you....in da shadows!!"

Everytime I read a post from "The Shadow", I think of that line.

Actually i saw ronnie and he also charges $20 for a photo,,, but of cos ronnie is the man and he treats his fans better(at least on that day), i believed he charged $10 for a signature on anything you bring from home, i heard from a lady....she told her friends that she rather pay $20 for ron to contruct a sentance..hmmmm,

[SS]

theres a guy name Lenny not sure on his last name that was in pumping iron and friends of Arnold that is part owner, and a trainer at my gym......really cool guy!

[JOHN MATRIX]

"ill spend one night with him"  - gayest ever arnold qoute.

"ill book us in a room together. i spend one night with him...and that night..he'll never forget"

HAHAHAHAHHAHA

From Raw Iron: The Making of Pumping Iron....

Scene: Franco showing Arnold and the gang his side-chest pose in the gym

Arnold: Not front chest, side chest, Franco [moves Franco's body to the side] Ahhhhh.... See. Things change when you move to the side.


And of course the whole gang busts out laughing. 
Was there anyone Arnold didn't own? Of course not. 

[carvedoutofwood]

i heard from a lady....she told her friends that she rather pay $20 for ron to contruct a sentance..hmmmm,

idiot

[GoneAway]

LOL! Keep it going guys. Another classic thread. I'll pitch in:

Arnold (talking about Franco): He comes to me for advices. So it's not that hard for me to give him the wrong advices.

[carvedoutofwood]

not sure if someone mentioned this... when arnold wispers to lou that he already called his other telling hi that he had won

[mar10s]

In the pump room doing pushups;
                         Arnold: "I watch you"
                          Louie: "I watch you"
                        Arnold: "I ooooooooo" 

Another line where Arnold is talking about "the hill" and the guys are saying that theres only one way to go and thats down.  Arnold says or stay on top.  Then I belive its Robby Robinson? who says..."or you can go over the other side"...WTF is that???

I think he said "or go over the hill" as in be too old/out of shape or something.

[MikeThaMachine]

In the making of when Lou says he wished he had more fun back then rather then being such a tight ass, looks like he took his own advice

[Slick Vic]

In interviews, public appearances, etc. Arnold is always on guard with his wit but the one time I have EVER seen him caught off guard happened in a scene of Raw Iron: The Making of Pumping Iron when Arnold is on top of a mountain with the rest of the gang posing when suddenly someone yells at him, 'No one will look at the legs.' His reaction is classic, he just looks lost for words. Arnold's always taken humor in good stride.

"Franco's pretty smart, but Franco's a child"

Arnold was owning everyone in that movie

The ownage was largely contrived, just like the T-shirt scene & Ferrigno shown working out in Brooklyn. Most of what Schwarzenegger said-about Franco, to Ferrigno, about his dad's funeral, etc. was BS for cinematic effect, to get attention. Very easily done-other than Waller the other  BBs heard talking were stiffs, some of the least impressive guys possible. He wouldn't have been able to talk that way to Oliva, Mentzer or Szkalak who by no accident weren't interviewed or even shown. With Oliva out for political reasons he already knew he was going to win the show beforehand; talking trash in front of cameras to someone like Ferrigno with learning disabilities couldn't have been easier. The directors decided early on to make it a docudrama star vehicle focusing on Schwarzenegger rather than the documentary it was advertised to be.

The comment about Franco's back was made by Padilla-his only words. Another guy they should've shown but didn't.

As far as ownage, it was largely a setup, just like the T-shirt scene & Ferrigno working out in NY, which was staged. Most of what Schwarzenegger said-about Franco, to Ferrigno, about his dad's funeral, etc. was just BS for cinematic effect, to get attention. Easy to do-most of the BBs shown other than him were stiffs; other guys like Oliva or Mentzer weren't interviewed. He already knew he was going to win the show beforehand.

The movie can only be so long, there is alot of people that "should" have been in it/in it more but there just isn't time for everyone. One thing though is why did they waste so much time on that cry baby loser Mike Katz who looked like crap or should I say a spider.
