Name that Film: Special Recall Edition!! - Arnold Movies

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER was born with a bicuspid aortic valve (a valve with only 2 leaflets, 3 being par for the course) on July 30th, 1947 into a staunch Roman Catholic household in Austria. Growing up in a little village with big visions, ideas and ambitions, Schwarzeneggermoved to the United States in September 1968 at the age of 21, speaking little English. Steve Reeves was his idol.

"My accent was very bad, and my accent was also very strong, which was an obstacle as I began pursuing acting..."

(Hey Arnold! Not you!!!)

He served one year service time in the army in 1965, as was the requirement of all 18 year old Austrian males, winning Junior Mr. Europe the very same year, before going AWOL during basic training to take part in the competition. He spent a week in the slammer for insubordination, crowned as a king, and still to be considered one of the most famous immigrant's to ever land in this country. E-merry-ca...vut a country! Mix a marriage...marry a Kennedy.

The 38th governor of Cali-forn-nia became a self-made man from less than ashes, and began weight training at the age of 15 to win Mr. U @ 22! He also went on to win Mr. Olympia 7X's and was referred to as "THE AUSTRIAN OAK" by none other than the Incredible Hulk. Can you imagine the dynamics? Refer to Pumping Iron.

Now, to determine what could be more irregular...mentally thumb wrestle the country's appetite for action in the 80's with Tom Brokaw at a tennis tournament.

I'm in show business.....why would I test myself under torture in the greatest country in the verld? Typical liberal giveaway speaking in bad puns...handed down as ancient dialect...we hope to bestow nothing but good fortune knowing we've seen our last action hero for the time being...though, we do hope you enjoy the show.

Judgment Day. Arnold said he began the pursuit of weight training to learn more about the power of the mind over the body. (Cleansing breath...aaaand...release!) You are a placid sea turtle in a land of make believe. Steer clear. Have no fear. Sylvester Stallone will play you in the movie. Unannounced to the Film Edition, "R-nuld" was voted best built man of Europe, the category somehow escaping, despite which lent fame instantaneously and offered the illustrious passport to America-the land of opportunity, where Arnold would have the hunger to be more than just a contender...he was a star and about to get rich.

This is a success story of a character who happens to be exuberant.

If technological issues weren't so rampart I would spew more about a businessman, politician, & the original Conan now called the governator, but the computer needs cleaning, so I bid farewell....

Thanks to Blood for an outstanding intro to this week's edition, as always. Yes, this week is all about the Governator! All of the following quotes are taken out of the mouth of Arnold, directly from one of his movies. Your job, if you choose to accept, is to read the quotes (in your best Arnold accent) and try to name the movie it came from. Simple as always! Remember, this isn't brain surgery!

Blood-N-Bolts Productions wishes you good luck and thanks you for playing Name that Film!!!

(Sorry, wrong Arnold again)

Let's see those answers! Check back throughout the next couple of days to find out where all 10 quotes came from. It's easy to remember, just before you leave our site, just look at the monitor and say, "I'll be back." Okay, that was a bit corny.
