Johnny, you bring up something that has bothered me about the reviews of this movie. Everyone that criticises the movie all Diss arnie for his accent. Well EXCUUUUUSE ME! I kind of like the fact that he doesn't sound like exactly every other actor or actress in a hollywood film. Its kind of nice to hear a real persons voice. I remember how shocked I was the first time I heard Bruce Lee speak in public.....all those movies and they had dubbed his voice....

Can't we get beyond the shallow biggotry of English speaking no accent only types? Hell even English and Australian actors are working furiously to get rid of their accents....

Sorry for the Drool [img]smile.gif[/img] and didn't mean to be picking on you Johnny, it is just one of those pet peeves....sort of like criticising an actor for being too black or too white.

Edit: As for his singing [img]smile.gif[/img] There were people on American Idol who didn't sing as well as Arnie, so I think we can cut him some slack there too [img]smile.gif[/img] I applaude his courage for singing in public...how many of us do that?
