Watch the film first. Then listen to this.

We adore Arnold, the director, the decisions, the cast (especially Jamie Alexander) and all the badassness.

Seriously, THIS might be the last great Arnold film.

And this is your last chance to send Arnie Top 10 films, so get in touch...

As his second term as Governor comes to a close, Schwarzenegger eases back into action with the '80s action revival that is The Expendables franchise. We take on the first two films and argue the toss between them in terms of quality.

More Statham love, some I'll Be Backs and the Spanish pronunciations of 'Bruce Willis' and 'Chuck Norris' pepper a conversation about just how successful the combination of light-hearted action and all-out maniacal violence is and how much of it is down to Stallone's leadership.

Plus the all-important question: are these really Arnie films?

Still time to get in on the democratic Arnold Top 10 - details at the end of the episode.

A veritable compendium awaits within, listener.

While Arnold goes off to become Governor, we look at the bit parts he did to keep his hand in, starting with the ultra-brief but significant hand off moment to The Rock in The Rundown AKA Welcome to the Jungle.

Next, a hairpiece for the ages in family romp Around the World in 80 Days and while the film tours the world, we detour into the careers of stars Steve Coogan and Jackie Chan and what they have in common with Schwarzenegger.

Then we're onto the obscure monument to self-congratulation The Kid & I. Yeah.

Finally, a look forward to the final Comeback phase awaiting us with a whistle-stop at Terminator Salvation, for completion's sake.

The end is in sight as we prepare to unveil the ultimate Arnold Top 10 List. If you haven't submitted your top 10, you're time is running out...

We round off Phase 4 with a more in-depth look at the successes and failures of Arnie's last Terminator film. What? No, I don't remember him doing another one. Who is that speaking?

Anyway, with Andrew out of the way, Alex and Ben are free to get into every last little bit of Rise of the Machines - the evolution of Nick Stahl's John Connor, the development of Claire Danes' Catherine Brewster, the believability of the franchise's AI supposition, talking to hands and, of course, that ending.

Stick with us - we're nearly there now folks. And there's still some surprises to come.

Share, like, get in touch in all the usual places and keep sending us your Top 10 Arnie film lists.

As the Fall phase comes to a close, we have a "special" guest join us in the shape of Alex's brother, Andrew. Why, you ask? For he is a former John Connor along with Edward Furlong, Nick Stahl and Christian Bale.

In the first of our 2-part look at this film, the Balerdi boys delve into not only their Sweded remake of T2 as teenagers, but the follow-up that predates Rise of the Machines by a whole decade.

We'll get into the actual film in more depth next time. Until then, keep sending us your comments, trivia, videos and your Top 10 Arnie films to:

We'll be back.

Arnie tries to relive his Commando glory days (sort of) in the troubled, post-9/11 action film Collateral Damage. Naturally, Ben and Alex can't help but spin conspiracy theories about what was and what could have been, as they delve into the mish-mash of violence and political intrigue.

Classic staples (SVEN!) get discussed, Arnie is apparently a Geordie and they both say "Johnny Legs" far too many times. Business as usual.

Does twice the Arnold equal twice the film?

As they get into Schwarzenegger's millennial clone sci-fi thriller, Alex and Ben this week detour into the worlds of Avid editing, having an open marriage with your exact double and long-running TV series Stargate.

What does that have to do with The 6th Day, you ask? Listen and find out.

We still need your Arnie top 10 lists, so visit the facebook page /Arniethology (where you'll find a link to the reddit on that subject too) or e-mail/message us via [email protected] or www.arniethology.com

After a couple of bile-filled weeks, 1999's End of Days finds Alex and Ben in a more jovial mood, given the opportunity to dig their teeth into the religious musings of Arnold's millennial horror action film.

Detours this episode include gradually remaking and recasting the film as well as discussing other favourite Y2K and end of the world movies, before Alex turns into a cross between Queen Elizabeth and Stripe from Gremlins.

Send your comments, hatemail and top 10 Arnie lists to the usual places - details at the end of the episode, as always.

If you thought Ben hated Jingle All the Way, get a load of Alex's feelings toward Schwarzenegger's 1997 comic book foray, Batman & Robin.

Almost refusing to talk about the film itself (or indeed be credited as Alex at all), he did a foolish thing before watching this one. As a result, this is less a discussion of Arnie's role in the film as it is a dissection of why this is the worst incarnation of the Bat in the ever-growing franchise...

We still need your Arnie top 10 lists if you haven't already sent them to us, so visit the website (www.arniethology.com), e-mail us ([email protected]) or visit our Facebook page, where you'll find a link to the Reddit where it's all going off.

Prepare for a distinct lack of Christmas spirit from Alex and Ben as they delve the depths of Jingle All the Way, Schwarzenegger's seasonal laugh-free zone.

A big sidetrack leads them to Beretta's Island, Franco Columbu's directorial effort about saving Sardinia from drugs.

There's really not much more to say except buckle up, Jingle fans. This one gets ugly.
