I still enjoy Schwarzenegger more in general, because while Stallone may have higher highs, he's also got lower lows. Even a bad Arnie film is usually at least watchable (if cheesy), Stallone's "bad" stuff is...just bad. |

Like AxonRey said, Schwarzenegger doesn't have a Rocky (or a Rocky Balboa or First Blood, or even the massively underrated Copland). That doesn't mean his movies are bad or aren't often tremendously entertaining. Schwarzenegger is arguably a more charismatic performer, but he's not a better actor.

I am on team Arnie, but for fairness' sake, Sly's career has a had a legitimate second wind.
Arnie needs that King Conan movie to go out like a champ. |

It is sort of interesting that Arnie never had a major franchise character. Conan was supposed to be one, but obviously that didn’t pan out. I guess Terminator could count, but he wasn’t the same character in those.

Yeah, basically the studio lost the rights, bought red Sonja instead, and used Kalidor s as an ersatz Conan

The IMDb trivia page for Red Sonja has some interesting/funny info, some of which endorses your point. The studio didn't have the rights to call him Conan, but...

So with Stallone there's the Rocky films, The Rambo films and Demolition Man.
Arnie has the first two Terminator films, True Lies and Predator. I'm giving Stallone a slight edge, but it's close. |
