Fuck you for this impossible poll! I went with Bloodsport but then immediately felt guilty for not picking either Above the Law or Best of the Best.

Jesus Christ

Cobra pretty much altered my childhood. Above the Law kicked off the Segal revolution. Raw Deal never gets its due.

Going with Cobra, which holds up very well still

over the years i've come to the conclusion that cobra is actually the best of stallone's non-franchised 80s output. and it's better than some of his franchise entries too, i'd put it over both rocky 3 and rambo 3

There's no way to pick from that list.

I went with Bloodsport because of Bolo and that whenever I go bowling and get a strike I do the arm bouncy thing he did whenever he won a match.

But Cobra, Action Jackson and Last Dragon are classics!!!

Tough comp but still, surely I'm not the only one who thinks Arnie murdering dozens of people(incl possibly a few cops & civilians) and showing a crippled man how to walk again is a shoe-in?

I am with the Fuck you crowd. Like someone else said much easier to pick my least favorite which is the awful delta force. Went with Roadhouse mostly because that movie gave me my philosophical underpinnings on how to live.

"Pain Don't Hurt."
"Take the biggest guy in the world, shatter his knee and he'll drop like a stone."
"I want you to be nice until it's time to not be nice"

Kant or Nietzsche wrote how many words never to come up with ideas so profound.
