Who's a better actor..Stallone or Schwarzenegger


Stallone

Ahnuld. Stallone plays the same characters everytime, an angry good-hearted badass. That's all he does. That's why his non "Stallone-y" movies all tanked, e.g., Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot or the one time he played (inconvincingly) as a racing driver. As long as he's not an angry good-hearted badass he fails.

On the other hand, Schwarzenegger was more succesful in more types of characters like as a pregnant man in Junior or a menacing robot villain in the first Terminator. The only one time Stallone played as a villain was in Spy Kids 3D which was totally forgettable unlike what Schwarznegger did as the iconic ice-punning Mr. Freeze.

STALLONE WAS ALWAYS AND IS STILL THE BETTER ACTOR...SCHWARZENEGGER HAS A MUCH LARGER/SHINIER SCREEN PRESENCE THOUGH...TO ME,THEY ARE ABOUT EVEN...STALLONE GETS A FEW EXTRA POINTS FOR WRITING I SUPPOSE THOUGH.

Stallone, I tend to believe him whereas Arnie I see as playing himself.

Stallone is the better actor (though all his movies are $hit) but Arnold is the better man.

Arnie has shit for emotional range. I much prefer Arnold, though.

Stallone by a long shot, but Arnold has improved over time.
