Nothing better than Andre the Giant stories. He was truly one of a kind
I do too, I could listen to them all day long. I got a whole collection on CZcams just for Andre. That man lived more life in his short 46 years than three men.
Absolutely!
Everyone should listen to the audible book As You Wish Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride. Hearing the many actors speak about their interactions with Andre is a wonderful experience. Everyone loved the man.
I knew Arnold... I knew the man for heaven sake
@@kennethfharkin I'll have to look into that. I saw Andre wrestle in Montreal back in the day....way before WWF. Went with my Dad when I was a kid...to see him walk down the aisle and step OVER the TOP rope of the ring was something special.
Arnold, Andre the Giant and Wilt Chamberlain are legends. There will never be anyone like them ever again.
"Jaws" was too but he passed away. I forget his real name.
@@Carlb328 Richard Kiel
Especially with these girly men that pretty much make up Gen Z.
Wilt who?
Why the disrespect?
my father, brother and i saw him wrestle when i was a kid.. we got to meet him for an autograph..
he smiled, told my dad to pick me up, then picked us both up and sat my brother on his other arm for a picture..
he signed my shirt gave me a high five and told me to follow my dreams.. RIP BIG MAN, YOU ARE CERTAINLY MISSED..
class act all the way
Arnold is not a small man by any stretch of the imagination, so seeing him next to Wilt and Andre really put in perspective how absolutely gigantic those individuals were.
Arnold the most was 6'1" so take it from there
@@peterhendricksen6946 correct. he was 188 cm
One hell of a Rugby scrum front row there.
Arnold is 188 cm, which would be precisely 6 feet and 2 inches. I think Arnold was pretty correct in comparing himself to Wilt and Andre, being 216 and 224 cm tall respectively, with the proportions between himself and Danny DeVito, who's 144 cm tall. Basically it's 40 cm, give or take, between Wilt/Andre, and down to Arnold, and then another 40 cm down to Danny DeVito. Those photos of Arnold together with Wilt and Andre are just amazing.
@@peterhendricksen6946 Arnold was measured at 6ft2 at the 1971 olympia on footage and there's cleary a bunch of pics of him standing next to a bunch of people with verified heights.... so not sure where you got 6ft1 from?
Total Recall is one of the most under-rated films ever. People don't really understand how deep and complex the story of that is in terms of whether it was even real at all or just a simulation in Arnold's mind. Truly a sci-fi masterpiece.
From Conan through to True Lies, Arnold could almost do no wrong. Even the comedies were great (especially Kindergarten Cop)
I've enjoyed all of Arnolds films, but Total Recall is probably my favorite.
It's a masterpiece
its loosely based on the book 'We Can Remember It for You Wholesale' by Philip K Dick. Worth a read.
@@analbaby1 Ooh I like his books I'll have to give it a read. Thank you :)
It's Predator for me. Rock solid action movie that inverts most of the 80s action hero tropes. The jungle setting, all the other guys who could go toe to toe with Arnold, how the Predator towered over everyone else, and the one liners. Great movie!
Truly one of his best! But how about Total Recall? I'm surprised none of them even mentioned it. So much action and so many genres masterfully rolled* into one film!
* Haha, speaking of Danny DeVito rolling a pot laced a cigar for Arnie in the other video from this same interview!
Cooontaaact!
Same here. It was the only movie of his where I NEVER felt he was acting and all the lines, action and plot were right up his alley. Great effects for the time and awesome soundtrack by Alan Silvestri.
I can never have a favorite. I just like what I like and there's a lot to like.
@MagicCarpetRideShareProject I hope you liked my voice in Total Recall as I went up against Arnold. In all seriousness, I think Predator was too good. True Lies was awesome too. Schwarzenegger truly had a ton of block busters.
That is hilarious. He put the Terminator up on a shelf, then went and paid the bill.
Nice.
"Put me down."
You mean "Bionic Bigfoot" put him up there.😉
I love hearing stories about Andre. The man sounds like such a wonderful human being who simply wanted to live his life and be accepted by those around him.
He was awesome. Also, all too often, people told him "I wish I was like you. I'd be so tough and strong, no one could hurt me". But André insisted that they had it all backwards. 😕 And for a great many reasons.
Watch the Joe Rogan interview with Jake "The Snake" Roberts telling stories about Andre.
In an interview Andre said that was why loved working on The Princess Bride. Yes, he was still larger than anyone round him but, being actors, they simply accepted him for who he was and went about doing their job. There was likely an initial reaction from everyone, how could there not be, but he wasn't faced with all the bru-hah-hah that must come with being his size all day, every day. To have been treated like everyone else for that time makes it easy to understand why he would have enjoyed it so very much.
@@gestaltdude Don't forget that at that point, he was in excruciating pain with every step. He couldn't lift Robin Wright who only weighed 100 pounds at the time. He needed a wire to support her weight
Never stop telling Andre The Giant stories. Love it!
When Andre says, "I pay.", let the man pay! I certainly wouldn't argue with him!
Andre was known for doing what he wanted, and that included him paying the bill when he insisted. 😅
Very funny Andre the giant story and I love Arnold’s humility when discussing the talents of Jim Brown, Wilt and Andre!
Can you imagine how lucky it was to experience that? Those three might have been the greatest (at least physically) in their respective fields.
The story about Andrea and Bad News Brown is the best story ever
Yup, glad he brought Wilt up
Richard Dawson in the running man is one of the best casting decisions of all time
Absolutely brilliant casting.
He was utterly FABULOUS. I wonder if--at the time--he knew it was Stephen King's work?
"Well, you ain't gonna get top ratings with reruns of Gilligan's Island. ... ... Uh, Gilligan's Island. The... ... 🎹duh duhduh dudt... 🎹 Yeah. Yeah, 'the one with the boat'." *HANGS UP* 😂🤣😂
So, Steve Harvey for the remake?
Heard that Andre story many times, and it never ceases to be funny or completely believable. At the time of the story, Andre was lifting guys much heavier than 235 in the ring with ease.
I listened to a lex luger story about him traveling through the airport and he had a similar experience with Andre. Andre just picked him up and sat him in the cart next to him like he was nothing. Lex said he weighed like 285 or something like that.
Gorilla Monsoon said Andre could lift 250 lb guys like a normal man picking up a trench coat. It’s believable…his size and weight, he’s going to have strength, plus continuous natural HGH. His hands and wrists were the size of gorilla.
Yes, giant strength, but then sadly, his condition later on meant that same strength was taken away as his joint pain became too much.
Peter Mayhew suffered the joint pain issue as well. 😕 It goes to show that although the idea of "being a gigantic man" (or dragon!) sounds wonderful, there are disadvantages which remain obscured and partially invisible until or unless you actually experience what being gigantic truly entails.
@@Novastar.SaberCombatLarry Bird once said that he doesn't believe that he'll have a long lived life, because of his size. He pretty much said that the heart has to work harder.
R.I.P.
Two of the greatest physical specimens ever.
I still remember Andre the Giant in Princess Bride. His character was just so sweet and child like. The antithesis of this literal giant of a man who could literally tear a man apart ❤😂
Was expecting Arnold to tell a legendary Andre drinking story which there are many but put a big smile on my face hearing this one!!
RIP Andre ♥️
I'm always fascinated by Andre the Giant stories. He was such a unique human being.
jingle all the way is still a blast
“Eraser” was a good movie w/ Vanessa Williams and James Caan.
My favourites Arnold's movies:
1. Predator
2. Conan the Barbarian
3. Total Recall
4. The Running Man
5. Terminator 2
True Lies is definitely one of my favorite Arnold movies.
That movie fucking rocks and is as hilarious as it’s action packed.
That's basically his last good movie.
@@Doomzdayxx It's one of his worst. That action is nonsense. The premise isn't based remotely in reality or logic. He's made much better movies since.
@@DoomzdayxxTrue Lies was good. But for some reason The 6th day was his last good one for me. There was that acceptance of him getting run down physically which was reflected in the movie. It wasn’t Predator or Conan Arnold anymore. I found it a poignant reflection of his past heights. And yeah , the movie plot itself wasn’t anything to write home about though , but then again most of his movies weren’t about the plot😂
@@alphanerd7221 Based in reality? 🤦♂️
Arnold was very James Bond like in True Lies. Arnold had great charisma on screen
Fun fact - at the end of Conan the destroyer where conan fights the Dagoth , Andre is inside the dagoth costume
Running man was fantastic! Had Jesse Ventura in it too and he returned in Predator. Great movies. Commando was fantastic too.
Conan the Barbarian and Predator are my favorite Arnold movies.
Throw in Total Recall and you've got about as perfect a trio as your gonna get.
What I love about Arnie, is that he still seems like a (at least sort of) humble person. I think not many action stars would tell a story about a much taller man handling them like a puppet
Most of the stories, dare I say all, I hear him tell about himself, is how he is being worked over or put into place by someone else. Both him and Sly are giant action stars but in most of their stories, someone is getting the best of them.
Humble? You don't wanna wear a useless mask? "F*ck your freedoms"...yea a humble tyrant.
He has a bunch of animals at his home. He loves feeding them these special animal type cookies in the morning. It is hilarious how he world famous mega-star, former governor of the state of California gets mobbed by animals and he hands out a dozen cookies.
He definitely seems like he's stayed down-to-earth. Every time somebody mentions his success on camera, he points out how he wouldn't have gotten anywhere without the support of all kinds of people in his life. I also like how the fitness advice he gives is not about getting huge muscles but about keeping going and doing what you can, regardless of how much that is.
@@Motorsheep He is actually one of the realest people you will ever see. There is no reason he should have been the governor of California, like Bill Burr said, he can't even pronounce the name of the state right, but he is the most charismatic, engaging, personable people out there and I don't know how he does it but he can turn on the charm like Niagra falls. He just seems to be a good human being, and despite his faults and indiscretions, he will step right up to the plate and own everything, and I just think that type of honesty and transparency is attractive in the era of 'scorched earth lying' we have become so accustomed to.
Every time they remake something that was Arnold's, it fails. They can't recapture this man's charisma
Almost 39 years old and Arnold fanboy! It's just something about his movies! 💪🏾
Jingle All The Way?
I read the remake of The Running Man won't really be a remake. The intent is to make a film which actually follows the book. I absolutely love both the Arnold film and the Stephen King / Richard Bachman book, but they are almost nothing alike.
@@armygrunt13 Sounds like a Total Recall situation. the more faithful film was just boring.
@@Halbared but book is not boring
Even when Andre played the “Bad guy”, he was Absolutely my favorite. There was Absolutely Nobody that could beat him unless he Wanted to lose. Sadly his life was too short unlike his Stature. He’ll never be forgotten.
It's been said by a quite a few people in the wrestling business that Andre was only scared of 2 people, Harley Race and Haku (Meng, King Tonga), who are both considered to be two of the toughest legit wrestlers in the business. The 3 of them were also very good friends.
@@Ifoughtpiranhas Randy Savage was afraid of Andre because he was one of the few people Andre did not like and Andre beat the crap out of him in the ring, when they faced each other. Savage was small by wrestling standards so there was really nothing he could do about it.
Maeda beat him with leg kicks
Apparently, he messed with Hulk Hogan's head leading into Wrestlemania III. Hulk was concerned whether Andre would "do the job," because even with as bad a shape as Andre was in, there was no way Hulk could beat him legitimately.
No one could slam Andre without his blessing and ‘help’.
My vote for his best movie is Total Recall!
By far his best movie imo...
Heck yeah guys! And thank you for the backup! And how is it that no one in the video itself mentioned it!? Sure The Running Man is a fun, weird atypical action/sci-fi movie, but what does it really have on Total Recall? That movie finessed every inch of its celluloid existence!
And Paul Verhoven as much as I also really love Robocop never made an action film better than Total Recall. I'm sure for some that's a hot button topic, but think about how much more consistently paced Total Recall is and how much more firepower and velocity it gains and throws at your every sense. The thunderous rarely still music score from Jerry Goldsmith certainly gave an already massive weighted film an even bigger boost into cinema history.
So yeah for Robocop to take second place to Total Recall is hardly an insult in my book. It's still also a great and timeless film! Partly what holds it back competing with Total Recall is that it's got a lot of dramatic weight holding it back and slowing it down due to the tragedy of the main character and his family being stripped away from. I hardly hold that against the movie. It was definitely the right choice for the film, but that means that much more of the time that could be spent on action is taken up by that.
Honestly one more fun action scene (even if it was short one) showing off his abilities would've been nice. But then again it could've worked against it. It's hard to say for sure without seeing such a scene and within the context of the film itself as far as pacing and other things are concerned. Anyway I should go and watch them both again. I've been on an 80s kick lately.
I was in my early teens, saw Total Recall in the theater for back to back showings! It was great!
I would kill to see Andre put him up on a shelf like that 😂
Jingle all the Way is so underrated i love this movie hahaha
Rich has great taste. The Running Man has a certain atmosphere that other Arnold movies dont. Out of all the Arnold movies I probably watch that one the most. Jesse Ventura is funny as hell. Richard Dawson is absolutely perfect as Killian. The soundtrack was great. Paula Abdul choreographed the dance scenes. Even Mick Fleetwood and Dweezil Zappa are in the movie! 🔥
It's definitely the Arnold film I re-watch the most ... well, that and the first Conan. Loved how Jesse Ventura inserted a bit of his WWF persona. 😄 Since Mick Fleetwood mentions his music being banned, I cannot help but wonder if he's playing himself. And Paula Abdul was twenty-four or twenty-five when she choreographed those dance scenes. Heck, Dweezil Zappa was only seventeen. "Don't touch that dial!"
Yeah. I watched it last week. It felt really rough. I loved every moment.
Sub zero! Now plain zero!
The MF is unique, his film list is phenomenal, probably once in every 50+ years. He shouldn't work as a movie star, but hot damn, he does!
I think total recall has similar feels.
@@MeidoVegeta True, true, but it's better in every way possible tho. (The new remake can't even compare).
This was very pleasant. Once Arnold was let loose to tell a story you could feel his charisma begin to flow.
Charisma is something you rarely see in Hollywood actors these days.
Arnold being put on a shelf by Andre is too hilarious. How many can say they man handled Schwarzenegger? I'm guessing 1
2. He has a bunch of Whilt Chamberlain stories also.
@@jameswayno one was stronger than wilt or andre
I consider myself very lucky to have been a kid when André was at his mysterious and fantastic peak.
It was a treat every time he appeared on the local rasslin' scene. I was enthralled each second he was on the screen.
Andre landing a sit down splash from the top rope in a steel cage match against Big John Studd.
Arnold is a living legend. I have always been a huge Arnold fan and always listened to his motivational speeches before working out.
Me too, like "Screw your freedoms"
Best Andre the giant story ever!😂
Eh, Arnold not much of a storyteller. Go listen to Rick Flair on Andre's 100+ beers or my favorite; Jake the Snake.
I like this Arnold story, but listen to Ken Patera tell the drinking story in Vegas. It’s a good one.
Arnold was very underrated as an actor.
Oh yes, underrated
He should play a corporate villain of some kind but straightforward not some comedy or action movie. That would be something different he could pull off effectively.
I never heard the Andre story before. That was priceless Rich, thank you. BTW, Total Recall was my fav. "Quato lives" was spray painted on the back stairway of my bar for over a decade.
What happened to it after that?
Arnie has been telling that story for 40 years, how did you miss it?
Heck yeah on Total Recall! Thanks for the backup : ) Yeah I was a bit bummed he or none of the others mentioned it. I think it was only top shelf film of his they didn't mention.
For me it all comes together so perfectly in that film (writing, directing, editing, acting and music) and that it rolls at least elements of nearly every movie genre into one so flawlessly. I mean on that merit alone you could rank it as one of his best. But throw in that it's still an invigorating blast to rewatch all these years later just as it was when I saw it in theaters--That's a gift of a film! So few do that for me.
A legendary man and a motivation to everyone. He truly showed us that you can come from anywhere and with hard work and determination. You can accomplish anything.
Imagine if the guy who drop kicked Arnold tried to do the same to Andre or Wilt. They probably wouldn't have even noticed.
THAT PIC ALONE IS PRICELESS.
That is the best André, the giant story I have ever heard!
The 16 second fart was my favorite
The 100 beers Andre would drink on any given night is my favorite, but this story is absolutely hilarious 😂
Look up Ken Patera talk about a drinking competition with Andre in Vegas.
@@bigbearddahuzi1036 Are you OK, André?
Hilarious that I always thought of Arnold as massive until I see him with two, true giants. 😅
I know, right. I still think of Arnold as a large man. After seeing these photos. 😳
i waited on arnold's table in 2010 when he was the guvernator. i stood next to him and i don't think he was any taller than 5' 10, but he had a big, barrel chest and his arm bones ( radius and ulna ) were bigger than i had ever seen on anyone. having that big bone structure is what enabled him to build the massive musculature. his chief of staff was a bltch and no one was allowed to talk to him, so if i was going to have any fun with him, i had to get sneaky. when he asked me for something, i responded in german that i'd be back. i know -- very corny, but what're ya gonna do ?
@@Mike___HonchoI've long suspected Arnold's height was a bit exaggerated. I saw him at the Arnold Classic in 2000, which would have made him fifty-three, and I would have pegged him at around 5'10", maybe 5'11" (I'm 5'8", and he didn't exactly tower over me). Sure, we do lose some with age, though I wonder if he really was 6'2" when they filmed Pumping Iron in 1975. Seeing him side-by-side with Lou Ferrigno, I find it hard to believe Arnold was only three inches shorter, as Lou was billed as 6'5".
@@armygrunt13Arnold was 5'11 in his prime probably. You can find a lot of proof of that around. No way he was ever even 6' let alone 6'2 lol
My Mom’s favorite Ahhnold movie was Commando, because “I like that he kills the entire army by himself”
My personal favorite also😊
I love ‘the running man’ but ‘total recall’ is my favorite. With a shout to ‘true lies’.
The governator always tried working with the greatest directors and was willing to take acting notes. It’s why he’s been so successful.
Exact opposite of Dwayne Johnson, he was in so many awful movies. But Arnold has so many classics.
One of Arnold's best stories was when James Cameron chewed the SHEET out of him on the set of "True Lies". Tom Arnold asked him how he put up with it; "why didn't you yell back?"
"Because, Tom... he's 100% right. I was late. I messed up. I disrespected more than just him by being late, I put the entire cast & crew behind schedule. It's my fault."
Must give us pause.
@@Novastar.SaberCombat, good story! Nice to hear about his humility, owning up and taking fault. Ha, but all I could think of was, ''here's my invitation''--BOOM! Of course there's so many great lines and moments--Such a classic! I may have to watch it again soon!
@@MagicCarpetRideShareProject The sheer irony is that Ahhhnold isn't the writer (as he even said in this interview, which is HILARIOUS)... but he gets to SPEAK these lines. As all actors do. And over the past century... they kinda get "free credit" for those lines. Directors and writers usually do not. Believe me, as someone who's done all three (no joke)... I know. :/
Love this clip! What great stories
I love his Hit Holiday Movie "Jingle All the Way"
I've heard the Andre dinner story a few times. Gets better every time I hear it.
I read "The Running Man" when it was published as part of Stephen King's "The Bachman Books". I think I read the story before the movie came out.
Liked the book, hated the movie.
@@Steven-lb4blBecause you compared it too much with the book.
Arnold, nice seeing you are eagering to do more! Looking forward to:)
Oh my god, i LOVE hearing new stories from Arnold, it's great!
I actually thought the first photo showing the three men had been altered, but seeing the second one changed my mind. Imagine being able to pick up a heavyweight bodybuilder as if he were a child. I can barely pick up my wife.
It’s been 10 hours. I’m guessing she saw this comment 9h 59 mins, ago. 😂
Everyone else picks her up.
Wilt was enormously strong as well.
@@RussCR5187 I read Wilt could bench 400 lbs. But that pales to picking up 20,000 women...
@@redeastwood4850 I guess I walked into that one, Mr. Anonymous Avatar.
Commando is his best movie. Pure 80s action. shame they don't make those movies anymore.
Expendables?
I wouldn't put Commando over nearly flawless Total Recall, but it is a lot of fun. They've both got a lot rewatch ability to them. Ironically those are about the only two top shelf Arnie films that none of them mentioned in the video. I think that Red Heat is kinda an underrated gem. Too bad it never pops up on streaming services, I may have to just buy a copy of it.
Classic story,Wilt and Jim Brown you could argue were the two greatest athletes who ever lived.
If I had to pick between Conan and any of the new Marvel movies I'd pick Conan . Even though Id agree with Oliver Stone that Conan could've and should've gotten a bigger budget to keep closer to the comic , John Milius did a great job .
Well, Conan the Destroyer was co-written by the comic book writer, so ...
@@ryanjacobson2508 I'm referring to just the first movie .
I agree with your first sentence for sure, but not so sure about the rest. It's hard to say without having such an alternative version to watch. I gotta say if given the chance and only one version could exist, it'd be pretty damn hard to consider sacrificing the version we have.
What if it had ended up like the way weaker sequel? I mean it's ok to watch once in a while, but it's got nothing on the original. They really needed John Milius again and better script of course. Grace Jones was probably the best thing about that sequel. Malick was a pretty great sidekick though too.
I appreciate Rich mentioned The Running Man, it's one of my favourites to this day.
I have two favorite Arnold movies: True Lies and The Running Man. Commando, however, was amazing too. Seeing him in "Commando", I wish Arnold of that time would "lift me up and put me on a shelf" too. 😇😇😋
Those are all great and how about Total Recall? That film is nearly flawless and it just about pure action the whole way thru, perfect pacing.
Whenever I buy Toma cheese I can't resist saying in Arnold's voice "it's not a Toma"
Great segment! The Andre story is new to me. Crazy.
That was a very good interview with Arnold, thank you.
The "Andre" stories from PB cast & crew members are outstanding. And ya know what? In the "Final Fight" video games, the characters named "Andore" are obviously a huge nod to this behemoth of a soul. TRULY, legitimately the absolute epitome and definition of The Gentle Giant. 🙂 The world is less without his physical presence, but his memory lives on.
Hey that makes sense! And I'm glad you mentioned it as I just played that in a arcade recently. I hadn't played it in years, especially not in a arcade. And dang that game was hard! I'm glad I had unlimited continues, clearly it was a quarter muncher back in the day ; )
I would've paid a LOT of money just to see Andre pick Arnold up and set him on a cabinet
RIP ANDRE You are LOVED and Missed!
The giant snake in Conan the Barbarian and also the scene where a snake is used by James Earl Jones as an arrow; These images are forever etched in my memory and I saw the film 40 years ago.
So many awesome movies, thanks Arnold!
Conan the Barbarian was my favorite,yes terminator so many more but Conan was just awesome because it was definitely made for you to be like the muscle bound character
I remember seeing Conan the Destroyer at the Bel Air Drive-in on Cicero in Chicago. Good times.
I love Arnold. Growing up in the 80s and 90s, you couldn't imagine an Arnold movie coming out and not watching it. He had a couple duds, and so so many hits. Watching Arnold now givess the best kind of nostalgia
I loved duds too.
@@stevem2323, haha yeah even some of his ''duds'' were gems! So many enjoyable ones to watch : )
The heights and weights of WWE wrestlers are always ridiculously exaggerated, but seeing Andre there next to Wilt you can tell he's legitimately close to 7 feet tall.
Wilt maybe had an inch or so over Andre but look at them - Andre for sure 7 foot at that point, and definitively much more massive. Tall as a giant, built like a buff dwarf. Probably one of the strongest people ever, despite being known to never hit the gym.
They billed him as 7’4. he was more like 7’2 in boots in his prime. There’s an old black and white vid when he’s younger and said he’s 7’1.
He worked on a Farm growing up. That's a great way to build natural strength.
@@chriscoulthard4947 He had acromegaly, continuous HGH pumping through him.
Picking a favorite movie of his would like asking "what's your favorite flavor?" just so many of them that are good, it really depends what you're in the mood for.
Arnold and Andre stories, awesome.
What great guys.
Not talking Terminator…my faves of his are Total Recall, True Lies, The Running Man, Last Action Hero, and Eraser. Loved those movies.
Glad to see the man still living well.
Talk about an action career, also comedy from '81-'94 i never got enough. The Running Man is my favorite as well Rich.
That Andre anecdote is the funniest thing ever.
Arnold always has the most entertaining stories to tell. Thank you for this one.
as a kid i got to meet Andre after a wrestling match and it was and still is one of the most amassing things to have ever happened for me
Kindergarten Cop and Twins are my favorite because they showed an action star could be funny and I feel like Arnold grew as an actor by leaps and bounds after making those movies. I pretty much like ALL his movies though.
For me his best movie was Conan The Barbarian. His first real hit, I believe. It was very artistically done. I loved the soundtrack. Conan the Destroyer was not in the same class. o
I say True Lies was flawless
@@badafinkoify This next March it finally gets a 4k Blu-ray release! Can't wait
@@badafinkoify Really? 2 dimensional villains isn't a flaw to you?
@alphanerd7221 what u mean... True Lies was ahead of its time and predicted the Middle East conflict and Tom Arnold shined in that movie 🎬
@@badafinkoify Sure, it totally "predicted" something that had been going on for decades beforehand. The movie is awful.
This was a real treat to watch. A legend talking about legends. Shout out to Arnold.
TERRANCE OUT
Commando! Let off some steam Bennett! That was his best film, so much fun in some of those scenes!
Wilt was 7'2 & jacked !!
While Andre is putting Arnold on the cabinet, Wilt is putting the moves on two waitresses
I can't even say which Arnold's movie is my favourite: Terminator, Predator, Running Man, Total Recall, True Lies, Twins, Kindergarten Cop, Eraser, Commando, Pumping Iron, Conan, Sixth Day, they were all so great! The 80s had a lot of great movies, but Arnold's movies make a huge chunk of that era, especially the second half.
the size of andre’s head compared to wilt and arnold is incredible
How in the world are you going to remake a Schwarzenegger film and expect it to succeed? The phrase big shoes to fill comes to mind.
Andre. A gentle giant. As they all are. Don’t have to prove anything to anyone 😀
Tell the guys in that car he flipped over.
@@alphanerd7221 Well they were drunk and asking for it ;)
I’ve heard the stories of the gentle giant callling Blacks Niggers to bad he’s dead to hear his side of the story
Arnold has had an absolutely amazing life. Just incredible listening to his endless stories. I am always so enamored with listening to him talk about the old days.
I want more stories. I've never seen those photos before. How awesome!!!
I just watched a clip the other day of Arnold Schwarzenegger giving a massage to Lucille Ball
I bet that Wilt and Andre were challenged to zero bar fights during their years.
Andre the Giant stories are the best.
Damn!!! Andre the Giant is flippin' HUGE but compare him Wilt Chamberlain!!! THEY ARE IN SCALE!!! CRAZY!!!
He said "who cares about your freedom". He can never come back from that.
Dude made a billion dollar industry with his movies, taxes that fund the Army to protect your "freedoms", understand the whole picture home fries.
Commando was one I liked.
Arnold handled that interview with class; Andre' RIP, you have no duplicate.
Totally agree with him.
Each brings a different flavor.
Jingle All The Way
Wow! You forget the sheer amount of absolute boss films Arnold has made until lists them like that! 😱👌
