      If you're looking for a fantastically directed thriller film, the 1974 film The Conversation would be good. Francis Ford Coppola lost to himself the year this came out, he had The Conversation and the second Godfather film both nominated.

    Because this was Arnold's first comedy, Universal was afraid the movie would bomb, so both he and Danny DeVito agreed to waive their salaries and take 20% of the movie's gross box office. But the movie was an unexpected hit. This resulted in both of them earning more money from TWINS than any other movie in their careers. It's rumored that Universal actually lost money on it because of this deal.

      Yeah Danny and Arny both took 20% cuts, the director took a 5% cut, and it was of the movies gross box office, not net profit. The movie made an incredibly $216 million total with only an $18 million dollar budget. Usually movies end up taking in roughly 60% of the gross as profit once the theatres take their cut. Lets say they got 60%. Around 129 million. Arnold and Danny each pocket 43 mill, the director takes home 11 million. Budget was 18 million. Which doesn't include the cost of PR and Marketing, say another 5 million in those days. The studio probably made like 5-10 million tops, if that. Imagine having one of the Top 5 highest grossing hit movies of the year... and you make less on it than the director does. Hahaha!
      There's a reason why no studio EVER gave out a deal like this again. They will sometimes give backend points to massive movie stars today, but never anything over 5%, and NEVER on the movies gross, only on net profits. Also to even get backend points you have to be like 2 or 3 movies into a big franchise usually.

Granted, it's a funny film, but Kelly was a gorgeous woman, and what she went through from her son's medical difficulties to his tragic death, to people trying to extort her and Travolta after their child's death, to her own battle with breast cancer before succumbing to it. Truly tragic. Some of her odd Scientology leanings aside, no one deserves what she had to deal with.

    The movie, 'Twins', which was originally called 'The Experiment', was developed specifically for me. Because when I met Ivan Reitman, I said to him, "I want you to direct me, I want to get into comedy. No one will hire me for comedy, because everyone is making a lot of money from me, with action movies, so it's very hard for me to cross over because people don't want to take the risk." So he said, "I think that you're very funny, and I think that we should develop some stuff for you." So he developed five scripts, and one of them was 'The Experiment.' I fell in love with the idea, and then we changed it to 'Twins' and came up with the idea to have Danny DeVito play not only someone that behaves opposite of me but also looks totally the opposite. I thought that it was very, very funny because all he had to do was kind of show the poster of Danny leaning against me and saying, "Only their mother can tell them apart." I mean, it made everyone laugh. So it was hugely successful, it was unbelievable. And I was so happy because it was actually my first movie that made domestically over $100 million, and it was a comedy, not an action movie. So from then on, of course, I got offered a lot of action movies, but Danny and I, we rehearsed those scenes, but we just had so much fun on the set rehearsing those scenes and doing all those same things and having the same mannerisms, and the scratching our butts at the same time and doing all this kind of stuff. So I think it was great, and it was brilliantly written.
    - Arnold Schwarzenegger (from The Terminator (1984), Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991), Predator (1987), Batman & Robin (1997), Pumping Iron (1977), Conan the Barbarian (1982), Kindergarten Cop (1990), Jingle All the Way (1996), Total Recall (1990), True Lies (1994) and Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)), who played Julius Benedict in Twins (1988).

    When Twins came out I thought it was the stupidest idea ever for a movie. I was not gonna waste my time on Arnold and Danny playing twins. My neighbor brought over a vhs tape of a Star Trek movie and Twins. Shelved it. Then one day I was home from work, sick as a dog. Nothing to watch, so in desperation I plugged in Twins. LOVED it. For an hour or so I forgot I was sick and had a great time.

    When Julius (Ahnold) asks "Do I look cool now?", and Vincent replies "Mr. Ice!" it is just such an amazing foreshadowing to one of future Ahnold's role as Mr Freeze in one of the Batman movies. Especially because Danny DeVito played the Penguin Tim Burton's Batman Returns.

    Not an Arnold movie, but, if you haven't seen it I would love to see you guys do City Slickers. Another fun, funny, wholesome classic. It would dovetail in nicely if you do Throw Mama from the Train first, since that connects with it starring Danny Devito and Billy Crystal, and City Slicker has Billy Crystal as the lead role.

    I loved this movie when I was a kid! I grew up watching Arnold in action movies and sneaking late Saturday nights when I was supposed to be asleep to watch late night reruns, including Taxi, with Danny Devito. So this movie was so fun for me to revisit for a minute. Btw, If you're gonna be doing movie reactions based on 80s action stars, I would like to suggest Kurt Russell, you've already seen him as Mac in "The Thing", but he's also in John Carpenter's "Escape From New York" and (my favorite of his) "Big Trouble In Little China". *****
    Oh and, he was Reno Hightower in "The Best of Times" with Robin Williams, love that movie too!

    Heather Graham is the love interest in a another movie that came out the same year as Twins called License to Drive with Corey(s) Haim and Feldman. Also, a reoccurring trope in the 80's was to include either drug dealers (mostly cocaine, it was [is] super popular in Hollywood) or Russians as the villains in most 80's movies.

    Heather Graham had a few earlier parts, but was still only 17/18 years old here, depending on when they filmed it.
    Kelly Preston has been in a lot: Jerry Maguire, Sky High, What a Girl Wants, and a bunch of 80s films like Secret Admirer and Mischief.

    About Arnold giving film roles to fellow friends/bodybuilders-
    Arnold's lifetime friend was Franco Columbu (who passed away in 2019). He and Arnold moved to the United States at the same time in the mid 1960s and lived together before both becoming World champion bodybuilders.
    When Arnold became a movie star, he gave small roles to his best friend. Franco was the tattooed Warrior Scout during the opening battle in Conan the Barbarian, the "Future Terminator" in Kyle Reese's flashback in The Terminator, was one of the medics on the chopper at the end of Predator, and is briefly seen as one of the studio technicians in The Running Man (when Arnold is being prepped for the show, Franco is the guy who says "Your bird is singing loud and clear."). There is a nod to him in Last Action Hero but I won't give it away as you haven't reacted to it yet.

That's Jesse "the Body" Ventura - a member of The U.S. Navy Underwater Demolition Team (during Vietnam), a WWF/WWE wrestler and former governor of Minnesota. He's also in Batman & Robin (where Arnold plays Mr. Freeze). So all three movies have two governors in them.
