What role do you mostly associate each high profile action star with?

[CyberCubed]

Most big movie stars play lots and lots of roles in movies, but they're always associated with their most popular roles. What do you consider for each?

- Arnold Schwarzeneggar = Terminator, Predator, Total Recall, True Lies, Conan, Commando and Kindergarten Cop

- Sylvester Stallone = Rocky, Rambo, Expendables, and his one shot movies like Demolition Man and Cliffhanger and Tango and Cash, etc.

- Harrison Ford = Han Solo, Indianna Jones, Blade Runner, Air Force One president, and The Fugitive

- Bruce Willis = Die Hard, The 5th Element, his roles in Pulp Fiction and Sin City

- Mel Gibson = Mad Max and Lethal Weapon

- Jackie Chan = Everything he was in, but mostly Rush Hour and Rumble in the Bronx

- Keanu Reeves = Neo in The Matrix, John Wick, and in Speed

- Will Smith = Men in Black, Independence Day and his role in sci-fi movies

- Tom Cruise = Mission Impossible

- Brendan Fraiser = The Mummy

- Eddie Murphy = Beverly Hills Cop, Coming to America, The Nutty Professor, and Trading Places. Also 48 hours

- Chris Tucker = Friday, Rush Hour, his role in The 5th Element

- Hugh Jackman = Wolverine of course

- Robert Downey Jr = Iron Man

- Hell, all the actors in superhero movies associated with their character, we'll be here all day if I list them all

- Jim Carrey. The Mask.

- Sigourney Weaver = Ripley in The Alien franchise



There is so much more too.

[Ninjinister]

I swear you have the weirdest topics. Half of those aren't even action stars.

I guess I'll bite though
Schwarzenegger - Jingle All the Way
Stallone - Antz
Diesel - The Pacifier
Statham - Gnomeo & Juilet
Crews - White Chicks

[CyberCubed]

All the people on my list are action stars, except for Jim Carrey I guess.

[Andrew NDB]

I'd say Top Gun over Mission Impossible for Tom. He's never lived that down.

[CyberCubed]

It's kind of ironic most movie stars are only associated with like 2-3 of their biggest movies, even if you look at their idmb pages and realize most of them have been in 30-40 movies over the span of their lives. But many of those movies are bombs or movies nobody ever heard of.

Also what would you associate Samuel L. Jackson with? He's had popular roles in Pulp Fiction, Die Hard 3, Mace Windu in Star Wars, a bunch of other Tarantino movies, recently in King Kong, etc. I'm not sure which was his biggest role was though.

Also what would you associate Samuel L. Jackson with?

Everything.

Though I've always liked his one and only scene in Menace II Society.

Whatever happened to Jean Claude Van Damme? Does he still exist? Has he made any new movies in the last 15 years or so? I haven't heard anything about him since the 90's.

He was pretty good in The Expendables 2.
