When this was filmed back in 1990....Arnold literally had a PERFECT LIFE. Biggest movie star in the world, super rich, handsome muscular guy, married to a beautiful woman from a very prominent family, in addition to movies was making tons of money in business and real estate, was adored all over the world, had tons and tons of friends, travelled all over the world..... You could go on and on. And the most impressive thing was, he achieved all that ON HIS OWN. He really was the definition of a self made man.
When Terminator 2 came out a year later, that was peak Arnold in terms of critical success and fame. He was perhaps the biggest celebrity on the planet along with Michael Jackson, who's shine was starting to fade from his Thriller peak.
@@CN-wt2bj It was reasonably cool. There was Def Comedy Jam and BET, and no one cared. We honestly seemed to get along better back then. The internet and politicians playing divide and conquer fucked everything up.
It's a pretty awesome movie. My cousin who was like a brother to me, saw it with me at a theater on the campus of LSU for 2 dollars. We had a blast. I would cringe at the bloody violent scenes, and my cousin would talk graphically about the scenes describing it in detail, to rub it in, to watch me squirm. Lol He'd even often say quotes from Lenny like " He man, I got 5 kids to feed!" Total Recall was mostly a mixture of science fiction, lots of action, with a slight small bit of love story and comedy.
Total Recall was my fav film until T2 came out a year later. Now I'd pick Total Recall over T2. T2 was well crafted, but Total Recall is just fun to watch and Arnold just being Arnold. Predator is in the Top 3.
The thing I love about Total Recall is it can go 2 ways. I studied that movie like the dead sea scrolls and my take is he was on vacation the entire time as it was explained in the beginning of the film.
We see the image of his love interest in the movie, in one of his choices for his recall implant, so I think more than likely, the entire thing was apart of the implant, however it's a very narrow margin between it being real also. So it's what anyone wants to believe. It's fun, well thought out, wild movie.
So when he wakes up and goes back to his life and trusting his wife and friends without any kind of mental problems whatsoever I'm sure that would be easy.
11:00 "you all can stand 2 action adventures a year" I wish this were the case. Now the movie theatres and hollywood push the comic book movies ad nauseum.
First time I heard Yvonne's song, was on this interview. Never knew it was in "Saturday Night Fever". I always remember the song, with Arnold and Sly dancing (LOL). Another Arnold connection to SNF. The idea for the script, was based on Arnold's other rival; Lou Ferrigno. Instead of body building, they used disco dancing; for the character's escapism. But, Travolta was based on The Hulk.
Arnold seems to have box office jitters about "Total Recall" here. He knows it's a great film and he's proud of his work. But the film had a huge budget hanging over it. I'm sure Arnold was surprised and relieved when it became a box office smash and #5 biggest film of that year behind heavyweights like Dances With Wolves, Home Alone and Pretty Woman.
@@CitizenoftheWorld1 He got "caught" all right, which resulted in the destruction of his marriage. Pretty serious, I'd say. Having said that, the majority of his movies were stellar.
@@Dizzy1980 Ain't no man perfect, especially when literally half the women you encounter wanna have sex with you. I'm sure he's cheated countless other times, but his wife couldn't accept him sleeping with someone who was in their house on the regular
The remake of Total Recall was good too in fact I have it in my room on Blue Ray. fanatics are everywhere I use to live with a room mate that was a fanatic about all kinds of stuff. that room mate is out of my life now and things are so much better. I miss the Arsenic Hall show it was the best night talk shows. Vibe was not good at all it didn't make me laugh when I watched it. not everyone liked the remake of Total Recall. Oh the original one has an explanation for the ending when Quade and Melina are outside. There is this fade away effect it means that he got lobotomized in the chair. That is how it ended but not explained in the movie.
Arsenio hall was great In the beginning, but then as the show went on, he focused on only black celebs and complained about whites and obsessed about racism. He showed that he was a racist. Then his show got canceled. 20 years later his show got revived and I was so excited to watch( hoping he changed). But even then he obsessed over “racism” and the evil white man. Then he got canceled again. He didn’t learn from his mistakes. Sad. If he just gave up the whole race thing he’d be # 1 talk show host today
@@johnkeelsmicrocosm885 Agreed. And I think Running Man was way better than Total Recall. The plot of Total Recall was too off-the-wall and hard for me to follow.
I mean Arnold did look considerably taller than him there, the angle is just a bit low. Arnold was quite tall, if you look at his early bodybuilding footage he towers over most everyone and I'm not sure there would be any way they wouldn't accurately have gotten his height many times since they measure those stats at those competitions and the competitors go out barefoot
Have to agree!. initially when Arnie walks in and you see him right next to Arsenio he looks barely an inch taller,but then suddenly Arnie looks much taller than Arsenio before he sits down. That is attributed to Arnie being nearer the camera. I would say 6ft or just fractionally over
@@guepardiez stallone use special high heels shoes ...there is a pic were stallone look just a bit shorter than hulk hogan.....but yes Arnold was probably around 6'0 never 6'2

It's not really like it went downhill after that much, is it...

@@RichV20 Which is a shame because Michael Jackson's output in the 90s was great.
His dad was a high lvl SS officer ....... he came from money and nobody makes it on thier own
He always knew the right people to suck up to in hollywood.
god damn it's so refreshing to hear a man speak his mind on his preferences without any worry of political correctness
DRK0114 Right I mean political correctness works to an extent but for the most part it's so pussy and lame
The 90s was a cool time. Everyone looks happy.
@@CN-wt2bj It was reasonably cool. There was Def Comedy Jam and BET, and no one cared. We honestly seemed to get along better back then. The internet and politicians playing divide and conquer fucked everything up.
Way way ahead of his time👑
I don't get this ahead of its time thing.
@@douglastaggart9360 lol everybody is way ahead of their time ay
@@douglastaggart9360 Total Recall certainly was for 1990
Oh Yes...
He handles himself with grace
I loved the Arsenio Hall show and specifically remembered Arnold's visits in particular. The early '90s were just as good as the '80s.
Total recall is my favourite arnold film sill today
Over T2

Arnold in his primetime
Twins, kindergarten cop, Total Recall, terminator 2 all made more than 200 million at the box office during this time
The thing I love about Total Recall is it can go 2 ways. I studied that movie like the dead sea scrolls and my take is he was on vacation the entire time as it was explained in the beginning of the film.
One of the images on the screens at the start when his character goes to recall is the reactor he starts at the end of the movie...

@alfred dreamer its definitely up to person interpretation
So when he wakes up and goes back to his life and trusting his wife and friends without any kind of mental problems whatsoever I'm sure that would be easy.
Was he though? :O
He did a little cooking, and did the dishes and helped around the house… And then they made the mistake of hiring a maid 😑
For him to even mention the name of Slys movie which he was promoting while hes promoting his own movie was pretty big of him
"consider that a Divorce "😁
5:27 this is the funniest moment of the video
Total Recall is a fantastic film. Top notch sci-fi action, I've seen it at least a dozen times.
5:27
His daughter is 5 1/2 months old here. She's 31 now. I'm 36. My daughter is older than his daughter was here. Man, time is weird
I know right?I was barely a year old and now I’m 32.Thats so weird.How is that even possible?I just don’t get it man.🤔

Man what a year
Great interview
That's the man who didn't screw up his life
He got caught sleeping with an ugly ass nanny lol but other than that he was flawless. One of my biggest idols and I'm not being sarcastic

You can tell Arnold is filming Kindergarten Cop during this time with his hair.
Filming took place in June 1990, the month Total Recall was released.
AAAAAAAHHHHHHH GET TO THE CHOPPEEEEEEEEEEEERR !!!!!!!

Genetic Perfection.
Arnold liked his girls "SLEEEEEEEEAZY"!
LOLOL
I hear this to much. She's tough she wears the pants. I feel sorry for myself. I'll never get married.
You made that statement 5 years ago. Did you ever get married?
I can't believe they didn't mention Trump!?
He looks like he eat Grace Jones ;-)))
Arnold Swallenpecker..
No part 2?
Click on the SCHWARZENNEGER Playlist. Part 2 is there.
MyTalkShowHeroes oh duh ok thanks man! I'm really enjoying these interviews. Brings me back when I was a kid watching Arsenio and Letterman at night.
We know exactly how you feel. Thanks.
what a weird segue to go from talking about wearing a condom to immediately "how's your daughter?" 🤔

The remake is watchable slightly entertaining but I wouldn't say good.
That remake is trash, let's keep it real. Just like that remake of the THING. Rj McCready helicopter pilot.
It might not be perfect still I enjoy them a lot .

Why do I always get Total Recall mixed up with his other movie Running Man?
Because they're similar in visual style.
@@johnkeelsmicrocosm885 Agreed. And I think Running Man was way better than Total Recall. The plot of Total Recall was too off-the-wall and hard for me to follow.
It’s very similar in the cinematography. It’s probably the same DP Director Photographer. Hunger games literally stole the story from running man.
You must not have grew up in the 80s and 90s. Not trying to be mean but that's like getting Rocky and Rambo mixed up
Also because I watch them both back to back in no particular order .
No way Arnold is 6'2". I say 6 even, Arsenio is a little over 5'10, no way arnold is 6'2"
Agreeable Dragon you’re right he’s not 6’2 he’s 6’3

There Is no RocKey 5! LMfao!
What the fuck are you talking about? There are six rocky movies. Rocky five came 1990
Arsenio is such an awkward host
Total recall that movie was like so wack
It was cool
Excuse me
You were Not born in the 80s or 90s if u think that
The remake is worse
@@liono1983 The 80s and 90s was The Best.
