If you watch any Schwarzenegger flick it's a problem. Except for maybe Red Heat. He was a star, an amazing one, who managed to be HUGE box office in spite of the logic flaws created in ANY movie just because of his existence. And yeah, what the hell were they thinking with Running Man? Would they really put a guy in the game who basically negated the natural strengths of the chasers? C'mon Adgy...Ahnold does not scream 'every man' like the lead in a movie should.

No, no, I kid. I love a lot of the old Arnold movies, but not because they're good movies. I think remaking Total Recall is a great idea because it's a good story (Philip K Dick!) and it wasn't treated all that well in the original, although I love the original. It's ****ing funny and awesome (Verhoeven!).

ok, that's better. Yeah, I thought, despite the overall tone, the original Recall was fun, albeit silly as hell. It sure was better than it should have been.

I will always remember the original for breaking my ****ing hand in the movie theater right before the movie started. Still watched it.
