I was doing some laundry this afternoon and "Commando" with Ah-nold and Alyssa Milano was on TV.

The movie is chock full of, "yeah, not likely" moments, like the Galleria having 50 fearless security guards on shift. The part that made me laugh out loud, however, was when Arnold gets down to the front landing gear on a 737 during takeoff. He sees a marshy area at the end of the runway and leaps from the landing gear as the plane lifts off and starts to ascend.

Arnold leaps from the aircraft, lands in the water and weeds and... :lol:... his jacket doesn't get wet. :lol: That scene wouldn't have been out of place in the movie, "Top Secret."

Here is the scene in question:

Basically any action movie with Ah-Nold in it.

My God, there are so many, it is hard to pick. Pretty much every car chase could go in this category, any shoot-em-up movie where the "hero" manages to shoot 50 bad guys without missing while none of them can hit him, any fight scene where the fighters take 15 bare knuckle punches and kicks to the face and are still standing, etc

With those out of the way, this was the first that came to mind...

The best from Mission Impossible was the two guys racing head-on on motorcycles, jump their motorcycles off ramps (whatever it was), leap off the motorcycles, and collide in mid-air and keep fighting.

Any scene in Top Gun other than Lt. Mitchell standing at sweating attention in front of three senior officers at a Flying Evaluation Board determining whether he was responsible for the loss of his airplane.

Tom Cruise is the best poser in any movie, anytime. And I actually mean pose. It's like he's gotta stop and allow us to gaze upon perfection at least 50 times each movie.

Its a tie - either Jeff Bridges or Warren Oates as Rooster Cogburn.
