Lol what the hell
Ahh... I'm pretty sure Arnold's low is really low as well, much lower than Stallones. It's Jingle All the Way/Kindergarden Cop vs Stop or My Mom Will Shoot/Oscar.

Stallone is a much more talented individual. He is a good writer, director, and actor (when he wants to be). Stallone has actually grown up with his movies and still going strong. I cannot say the same for Schwarzenegger.
Cmon, Stallone wrote Rocky. FUCKING ROCKY!
However, I still prefer Arnold. I just have more fun with his films and find myself rewatching them much more than Stallone's catalog.

Rocky and First Blood may not be sci-fi but they stand toe to toe with Arnold's best movies. Different types of movies, but definitely on the same level of quality.

rocky is above all the characters of arnold together,people still climb the fucking stairs every day
stallone is a director,writer,etc etc
i love arnold but stallone is a better actor by a mile
btw
vs
anyone have see the last stand? arnold can barely walk
I'm guessing that we'll see Arnold getting in better shape now that he has more time to focus on his health.

lol was gonna say something like that. For me it's like choosing between my left or right nut.
Having said that, Arnold is better cause Terminator 2 is the best movie out of both of their movies while Stallone has done more good movies and can act better. Arnold has better charisma though. Fuck it I love'em both. Can't possibly choose.
Do we agree that Sly and Ahnuld are top tier, and second tier is Van Damage and Norris?
Do we include Sagal in there?
I always put it like this
Tier 1: Sly, Arnold
Tier 2: Van Damme, Bruce Willis
Tier 3: Norris, Sagal, Jackie Chan
Tier 4: Everyone else
Die Hard is one of the best action movies ever made but for some reason i never saw Willis as a pure action star.

What? First Blood is the best Rambo by a good green country mile and is a legitimately good movie.

I'd drop Norris down to bottom tier, really. Willis should be above Van Damme...but only barely.

Rocky and First Blood are his best works. First Blood does not get enough love in my opinion. Everyone just seems to remember Rambo:First Blood Part II and the new one, but the original is a great and downer drama. That scene at the end where Rambo breaks down describing the horrors he saw in war is so damn good.

This one is not that bad actually.
I'd put Junior there instead.
For me Arnold will always be better. I quite like Stallone though.

Norris wasn't even in any Tier for me, dude. What exactly justified him being there right next to Seagal and Jackie Chan?

Well Norris was aight in Missing in Action series.
What tier is Gary Daniels?
I..dont know i just thought people liked Norris for whatever reason? I put him there to avoid NorrisGaf (if such a thing even exists) getting mad at me =P
I honestly cannot think of a single good Norris movie, he seems more famous for his internet meme than anything else
The original Delta Force is alright..i guess.
Where do people rank Vin Diesel? Is he the most Arnold esque? Stoic figure, big, cannot act? Do not particularly care for him
Demolition Man is also a overlooked Sly classic, one of the few sci fi'ish movies Sly has done
EDIT: My father always said these guys were nobodies, when compared to the GOAT:

Only the first one. Norris was cool in the 80s though. At least from my memory. I need to go back and watch his catalog to see if it holds up as well as Stallone and Arnold's.
And for an awesome Stallone flick that had a pic in the OP, but many people don't know about, get Nighthawks:
Stallone and Billy Dee Williams vs. Rutger Hauer. Such a badass, underrated slice of 80s awesome.
And the bad guy had one of the coolest names ever: Wulfgar.
There you go

Norris was always quite low tier, he never really did a major film, all his stuff was considered b-films.

yeah forgot about Delta Force. Kind of the straight to video type Rambo knockoff, I suppose. I honestly don't watch much Norris, he's D-tier to me
Diesel doesn't really do...how do you say...I'm not sure how to explain it, but XXX was dogshit (in a good way?) and he has done a lot of weird indie movies, which you didn't see from Schwarzenegger or Stallone. I dunno where Diesel fits in all this.

Bearded Stallone for me. Because all I think about is Heart's On Fire when I see that beard. What a fucking training video.
i have another question

I like Sly bearded better, he looks better with it
It feels like Arnold was perfected in Commando and Predator:
Like this is the perfect look for him, he was obviously more muscular in his early days but to me, this is Arnold in his prime.
Dont know what is Sly's perfect look? Rocky 3? 4?

Oh yeah, great look for him. He also looked great in that opening scene to Rambo 3,
the knife fight
Does anyone have any box office data for US and international, all movies combined for both? Would be interesting to see, ill look if BoxOfficeMojo got anything

For a question with no right or wrong answer, I'm amazed at how many people are getting it wrong.
Stallone? Pffffffffft....
Schwarzenegger, obviously.

Sly got the endurance and the work ethic locked down. Of course Ahnold spent a lot of time away trying to govern California.

What's Stallone's best monologue vs Arnold's? An unfair comparison I know but I'm sticking by Stallone!
