Wow, thats a tuff one. I love both of them, actually last year is the first time I saw both of them, but I'd have to go with The Terminator. |

Terminator, only because I find gunfights more interesting than boxing. |

I have to go with The Terminator, if only because the Rocky poster you posted in here is completely ridiculous. I thought on first sight this was a Charlie Chaplin poster (with Chaplin on the left) :wink: |

Its interesting that not one person has agreed with me, yet Terminator didnt win one single award, when Rocky won 3 Academy Awards. Just seems that people in authority seem to agree with me :wink: |

Though in retrosprective no one who voted fot Rocky probably will say they did since Taxi Driver is widely considered to be the far better movie |

Yeah...rocky was alright...just not THAT good. Especially the acting by sly...left more to be desired Terminator I think will always be the more popular of the two Now if you put terminator 2 against rocky 2....it would not even be close, terminator 2 would prevail! |

Im sure you mean "superior" there...... 
...Which made more bunce? which got more awards? which has spurned more sequels? they all have the same answer...... and the crowds in the film usually chant the answer multiple times: ROCKY! ROCKY! ROCKY! ROCKY! ROCKY! :wink: |

Terminator is an awesome movie, and it's done by Cameron, who is a favorite of mine, but Rocky is one of the greatest movies in the history of cinema. That beats plain old awesome everytime. |

Rocky! Actually Rocky 1-4 were the best of the 80s I always thought the first Terminator was overated although its a good movie. T2 is a classic |
