"Conan The Barbarian" is the best Schwarzenegger movie. It's better than T2, Predator, True Lies, etc. It's on another level and is a freaking epic movie! - eviltoast

    I think this is because he was still learning how to act and taking it seriously.

    In his later classics, he had developed his persona, which included maintaining his Austrian accent that was so key to his brand.

    In a sense, he now mainly plays that character, and any other roles are seen through that lens. But with Conan, he was more flexible of an actor.
