Movie Action Heroes
Around the age of eleven I was like many kids my age discovering the world of the movies, my dad would bring home some videos and we would spend many a family evening watching some of the action movies I have grown to love and appreciate even more as the years go by – I remember the summer of 1985 and my first experience of a Stallone movie on the big screen, my uncle had taken me to see Rambo: First Blood Part II in the local town, and it’s a day I will cherish forever, it was my first taste of an action hero at the cinema – hearing the cheer of the crowd as one of my heroes did his thing was immense – I was only 14 that year and the effect Stallone and Arnie had on me growing up was huge, they were my first real action hero crushes, my fascination of all things MOVIE came from watching and being inspired by these two action stars – their haul of movies during the late 70’s, 80’s and early 90’s included Rocky’s, Rambo’s, Terminators & Conan films, Commando, Red Sonja, Over the Top, Predator, Total Recall, Tango & Cash, Running Man, Cobra and many more – over the years these two cinematic giants have set the bar high in the Action Genre, their huge muscular physiques, magnificent screen presence and their ability to deliver delicious film quotes that were plentyful in the movie scripts of their day, have helped enhance both their repertoires making Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger the complete Action Hero Package that I doubt in my lifetime we shall see the like again…
