As a Californian I Hate Arnold! As an actor he is great but NOTHING I mean NOTHING can compare to Sylvester Stalone...
I love all his movies especially the Rocky series!

Sly, as successful as Arnie has been he still can't deliver a punchline to save his life
Sylvester Stallone had two good movies, the original Rocky and original Rambo. Arnold had a better physique, better one liners, a lot more good to great movies on his résumé, almost single handedly created the whole action hero genre and was the greatest person ever at it, and is one of the most recognizable people in the world. Arnold has also done things other than movies and been successful in them like politics and bodybuilding. While they both had strong accents Arnolds doesn't make him seem like he has a borderline speech impediment. Overall I say Arnold wins this handily, and I say that as somebody that tends to like Stallone also.
Arnold is not a good actor. But he is Arnold, and the godfather of crappy action movies in the 80's.
Best movies from Arnold are Conan the Barbarian, Terminator and Commando.
Sylvester Stallone just purely sucks. He looks and acts like he was dropped in the floor as a baby.
He's done a few good movies though, but I'm no hardcore fan of Rocky or Rambo.
My vote's on the Governator.

It is not due to his accent, he does, in fact, have a speech impediment...
....and he was injured as a baby.
This injury is what has affected how he looks and sounds.
"Doctors used forceps during his birth that severed a nerve and caused paralysis in parts of Stallone's face, resulting in his signature slurred speech and drooping lower lip"

Stallone sounds like he has marbles in his mouth when talking and the crying scene in the first Rambo movie [towards the end] when he's talking to Troutman about his life in the past in Nam, well, fuck you needed subtitles for that scene on the first viewing. Stallone bubbling like a baby and trying to talk with a mouthful of marbles at the same time lol.
Stallone has:
Rocky.
Rocky II.
Rocky III.
Rocky IV.
Rambo.
Rambo II.
Rambo III.
Where as Arnold has:
Conan The Barbarian.
Conan The Destroyer.
Red Sonja [a Conan side story of sorts].
Commando.
Raw Deal.
Red Heat.
Predator.
The Running Man.
Total Recall.
The Sixth Day.
Colateral Damage.
Terminator.
Terminator 2.
Terminator 3.
Eraser.
Jingle All The Way.
End of Days.
Over all Arnold has a better selection of movies. And he isn't milking all of his big hits like Stallone is doing. There could easily be sequel after sequel to a few of Arnolds movies. But he isn't as desperate as Stallone. Stallone is beating a dead horse as far as his Rocky series goes. And he should have left Rambo at IV not making a number 5 as well now. Fuck that. The ending to four was a ncie way of rounding the series up and finishing it off. Stallone is a washed up BUM that needs to milk the past in order to progress.
Jingle All The Way is way better than Stallone's effort of Stop Or My Mom Will Shoot. Jingle has the lovely Rita Wilson in it and the comedy and oneliners is better too.
Arnold has about three duds in his career. Hercules In New York. Twins. and Junior.
Where as Stallone has... everything else I didn't mention above.

Arnold Schwarzenegger and "Commando".
Both were great action heros moviestars, but I voted fir Arnie.
Why? Maybe because he was a former European.

I like them both but I think I have to vote for Arnold simply because of Terminators 1 and 2. Some of the other Arnold movies I like are Predator, Running Man, Commando and Red Heat.
My favorites of Stallone are pretty much all of the Rockys, the first Rambo, and Get Carter. The award for worst scene in any of these movies would have to be in Rocky 3 when Rocky beats Apollo Creed in a race on the beach. They're both jumping up and down hugging eachother in the water in their 80's cut-off shirts....I laugh every time :1orglaugh
