Back in the day
Action packed films centering around hi-octane fueled car chases were common
place in Hollywood but over the years have become increasingly scarce on the
silver screen. The same can also be said for blockbusters featuring everyone's
favorite Austrian Arnold Schwarzenegger as the leading role. Both have their reasons
for these turning of events however because on one side, practical stunts got
replaced by the cheaper oversaturation of CGI while the famous actor took up a
career in politics. Fast forward to 2013 it would seem times are changing once
again now that Arnold is out of office and wasting no time going back to his
acting roots. He's not alone either as
the famed terminator will be competing against another fierce mechanized icon that
holds a fan base equally as large to see who comes out on top. Will this be a
glorious comeback for the aging former politician or will he linger in the
shadows of Chevy's newer sleeker model.
