Arnold Fest 2009! Award Worthy Performances!
Posted By Action Flick Chick on September 22, 2009
Arnold Schwarzenegger has had a great career and has received several awards for his awesome performances and has been nominated for many more.
- Arnold won a Golden Globe Award, “Best Acting Debut in a Motion Picture,” for his performance in Stay Hungry (1976). He co-starred with Jeff Bridges and Sally Field.
- Apparently The 6th Day (2000) was an awesome movie because Arnold was nominated for three Razzie awards just for this one movie. He is the only person to get nominated for Worst Actor, Worst Supporting Actor, and Worst Screen Couple in the same year. The screen couple was for Arnold and…Arnold. He was a couple with a cloned version of himself.
- Arnold has been nominated for a Razzie Award as Worst Actor 8 times.
- In 2004, he received a special award for being the “Worst Razzie Loser of Our First 25 Years.”
- He was voted the 53rd Greatest Movie Star of all time by Entertainment Weekly.
- His performance as the Terminator in the movie Terminator was ranked #40 in Premiere Magazine’s 100 Greatest Movie Characters of All Time.

What about his oscar winning performance in Kindergarten Cop? Where's his nomination? Where's the justice?
Hey hey hey! I thought Kindergarten Cop was great! Junior especially! Got to love Arnold comedy classics.
Oh yeah, I love that movie. Kindergarten Cop will have it's own special review before Arnold Fest 2009 is over.
Ditto on THE 6TH DAY. Man, I remember watching that freakin' movie and saying, "Damn, he can't act anymore. His mugging is so awkward, he looks like a stroke victim!" Apparently I wasn't the only one because a whole "Arnold had a stroke" rumor started making the rounds that very month, right after his heart surgery too which only perpetuated the rumor of his imminent demise. I totally thought the dude was on his last gasp. Who knew he would grow up to become the "Governator"?
In his own words… "it's not a tooma!"
