These guy's guys actors who can't act worth shit, in movies that only get ratings because there are so many wannabe, macho men in the world.

Haha- I agree with you, MissM. Except for maybe a couple Stallone & Arnie movies- I think Arnie actually does a decent job with comedy- like Twins or True Lies. Stallone did a credible job on Copland, and you can't deny Rocky was his magnum opus.
Peple get mad at me when they ask me- "don't you ever want to just turn off your brain and have a good time with some mindless action?" and I answer no. I have a brain, and I enjoy using it. Even when I'm watching guys with huge muscles run, punch, shoot, bleed, destroy vehicles and blow things up I want some component to engage my intelligence- not insult it.
