Yeah, I'm bored.


Commando, btw. 8-)


With Aliens as a close second. No actually, Predator. And by that I mean Robocop.

strawberry float it. I can't choose between them. The 80's were strawberry floating awesome, weren't they?

That's a very tough crowd, they are all absolutely amazing in their own way, but the answer is Die Hard.

That's more of an adventure story, though. The ones in the poll are balls out action. It wouldn't fit.

Out of those I'd say my top 3 go:

1: First Blood
2: Aliens
3: Commando

I'm not even sure on that though. It's a strawberry floating tough choice. They're all great!

Actually I think I like Predator more than Commando. I can't choose. :(

Oh, Die Hard has to be in my top 3 too. Oh, damn this life! :cry:

Hard choice, Commando is great in a 'wow that's so bad I can't stop watching' kind of way. Die Hard is probably the best pure action film but Aliens is superb too with the added bonus of being a better film in other areas.

Aliens. No Die Hard. OK, Commando. But then again, Predator is brilliant too.

Aliens.
