Having a rough week? This should get you through it






I have a weird affinity for 80's movies. I also grew up watching and basically loving every Arnold movie (i could even be quoted as saying he was the best actor in the world.) Obviously that statement is a little over the top but hey i was like 12 years old! So i found these videos on YouTube. They are opera versions of some of Arnolds movies. (FYI there is a little language in the terminator video so just a warning). Enjoy!

I guess you could call this THE LIST
