I think Cruz and Ford are locks.

Arnold is up there as well he had movies like Conan, Red Sonja, and Beastmaster well before the Terminator movies. Also Last Action Hero, Commando, Total Recall, True Lies, and Predator were good action films. I think it would be hard to leave him off.

The 4th one is hard. Norris, Van Damme, Jet Li, Jackie Chan, Gibson, Reeves, Willis, Sly, Kurt Russel, Bruce Lee. I just don't know maybe between Gibson and Willis. Don't know if I can choose between Lethal Weapon and Die Hard.

Ted? Jose?

Yeah, but you have to consider that Sly's career is almost entirely unsullied with drama, romance, horror, family fun, or other such ridiculous distractions. He's been making Rambo, Rocky, and thinly disguised copies for over 40 years.

No love for Segal. Under Siege is pretty classic.

Wesley Snipes had his moments too.

IMO, Harrison Ford is on there no question. You guys haven't even mentioned one of his best films:

The Fugitive

"You switched the samples!"

My reasoning for Reeves above Willis was, taking their main franchises out (Matrix and Die Hard), who has the better action resume?

Reeves has Point Break, Speed, and the John Wick series. Bruce Willis has... Looper?

Right, but why take out their best work to make a decision?

And no offense, but Matrix 2 and 3 royally sucked.

You're going to stop at Looper? Bruce Willis has 5th Element, 12 Monkeys, Armageddon, Tears of the Sun, Unbreakable, and The Jackal.

Besides, The Matrix is a better movie but Die Hard has more good movies. When you look in the dictionary under "action movie" it says "see: Die Hard". The Matrix has action but it's not really an action movie.

I put it more in the scifi side of things. I know tons of action movies have sci fi elements, but with Matrix the scifi/ philosophy is the point and the action is secondary even though it's copious. Something like, say, Total Recall flips it. The action is the point, scifi is just the hook.
