Total Recall is pretty fucking nuts.  Probably one of Schwarzenegger's most insane roles, plus you get to see his head just about explode, which is pretty disturbing.
keep posting...

And the whole Rambo Series, Deep Blue Sea, the Die-Hard Trilogy, Mad Max, etc.
how can you mention deep blue sea along with these. >8(

also i assume you mean Mad Max: The Road Warrior??

'cause if you mean the first one it isn't very ACTIONY. it is very, very slow.

Escape from New York is excellent but it is also kinda slow. if you're in it for the action then Big Trouble in Little China is pretty awesome

also avoid escape from los angeles it is pretty bad and has TEENAGE APPEAL written all over it

the lethal weapon series is awesome too. young mel gibson is awesome.

but yeah for me there's no better action movie than Mad Max 2. also if you want to watch a movie that's more or less a remake of it catch Waterworld. The setting is changed from DESERT EVERYWHERE to OCEAN EVERYWHERE but apart from that they're pretty similar. tho Mad Max 2 is obviously better

Escape from New York is my favorite.  As long as we are talking about like . . . really bad/good action movies and not action movies that are just good.

Escape From LA was awful because it was a straight-up remake with Steve Buscemi replacing all of the cheesy awesome.

Does Paycheck count as an action movie? I like Paycheck. *nods*

When I was a kid, I really liked Debbie Does Dallas. That had a lot of action.
