i probably should have checked before posting this thread, but one of the greatest all time action movies TRUE LIES (used to be) only avalable on my computer (got it from direct connect i think). i don't know if anyone else had downloaded it from me, but i just bought hte DVD at wal mart so i'll probably be deleting the .avi. so if anyone wants to copy it in the next couple days feel free it's a good one

Last Action Hero was better IMO, but Terminator 2 was by far his best action movie.

alright well i actually did a seek fo rit and my-myself-and-i has it so i'll go ahead and delete my copy


and TRUE LIES has to be one of the greatest action movies of all time! it's got everything! the action is badass (i can't decide what's a cooler bathroom fight scene -- true lies or T3) tom arnold is actually funny in it, a young eliza dushku, and the whole sideplot with bill baxton trying to seduce his wife, and then the terrorist thing... this movie is great

Yeah, those two blew... Even his other comedies were great. Kindergarten Cop & Twins are fucking hilarious.

And yes, True Lies is a damn good movie. It's currently $9.44 or $8.88 at Wal-Mart for the DVD... Cause I seriously considered buying it a few minutes ago when I was there.

yeah well they didn't have super high qual digital video back then. if it doesn't say "digitally remastered" anywhere on it then it most likely isn't. but then again the disc does have dolby dts audio. i don't think that's avalable on cassette


AND you get the widescreen version of the film. most vhs movies are all formatted 4:3 cutting off most of hte movie

Predator was the shit. I don't see how you guys left it off the list of Arnold's greatest action movies.

I like true lies a lot though, anything with Tom Arnold as a secret agent is amazing. Plus Eliza Dushku as Dana Tasker, fuckkerific.
