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.

  • In 2004, he received a special award for being the “Worst Razzie Loser of Our First 25 Years.”

    What about his oscar winning performance in Kindergarten Cop? Where's his nomination? Where's the justice?

    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!"
