Arnold going Green

Arnold is going green and no he isn't going to be the next Incredible Hulk. In a recent article, our governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger was photographed riding bikes with his bodyguards. He must have been taking a break from the tiring task of running the state of California. Maybe he can go biking with President Barack Obama when he visits.

Arnold Schwarzenegger to make cameo in new Stallone film

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is slated to appear in Sylvester Stallone's new film, The Expendables. The part will only be a cameo and Schwarzenegger won't have to stretch too far as an actor as he will be playing a state governor. This comes in addition to Arnold Schwarzenegger's other rumored cameo in the film Terminator Salvation.

The Expendables is a film that was written by, directed by and stars Sylvester Stallone. The film also features Jet Li (Fearless), Jason Statham (The Transporter series), Mickey Rourke (The Wrestler), Jean Claude Van Damme (JCVD), Dolph Lundgren (Rocky IV), and Chuck Norris ("Walker, Texas Ranger"). There are also many other stars slated to appear in the film. MMA fighter Randy Couture is also slated to appear in the film, along with Robert Knepper, who "Prison Break" fans might know as Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell. Hmm a movie starring Arnold and Stallone, in the words of Jay Leno "This will be the first English speaking movie that still needs subtitles".

Sarah Connor may be back for Terminator Salvation

In a recent article, sources indicate that Linda Hamilton (the actress who played Sarah Connor in Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day) is in talks to appear in Terminator Salvation. Hamilton turned down a chance to be in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines fearing that she might be typecast. Her character's absence was explained by the fact that her character had died during the time between Terminator 2 and Terminator 3. Terminator Salvation is slated to hit theaters May 21, 2009. We shall see if Linda Hamilton will say "I'll Be Back."

(Trivia Sidenote: Linda Hamilton was at one time married to the director of the first two Terminator films, James Cameron.)

There also have been numerous rumors that California governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger may be making a cameo in the film. Although at this point, these rumors have neither been confirmed or denied by the Governator or the director, McG. There have also been rumors that the actor who portrayed the T-1000 in Terminator 2, Robert Patrick, will also be making an appearance in the film.

Predator for Politics

I was recently watching the movie Predator during one of those all night movie marathons, and I realized something. The film contains 3 future politicians. I realize that this is a very irrelevant and probably coincidental fact but the film does in fact contain 3 people that have made runs for political positions. Some being more successful than others. These 3 actor/politicians are Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jesse Ventura, and Sonny Landham. Arnold Schwarzenegger is our current governor of California, while Jesse Ventura was the single term governor of Minnesota from 1999 to 2003. In 2003, Sonny Landham attempted to be the Republican governor of Kentucky, but he failed to get the nomination. In 2004, he attempted to run for the Kentucky State Senate, but he failed there too. Then in 2008, he announced his candidacy as a libertarian to be a United States Senator, but the libertarian party withdrew his nomination after he made several anti-Arab remarks . On a Predator related note, Director Robert Rodriguez is planning a remake of the Predator film.
