Jimmy in Arnold Schwarzenegger movie

Post by phansheridan »

On the AE movie see Arnold run, during a scene right after announcing he was running for Governor of California the actor playing Arnold is told he needs a financial advisor and he replies "Jimmy Buffett is a good friend of mine, I will have lunch with him" this is met with blank stares from the political advisors and Arnold replies "I'm joking... Warren Buffett"

That movie looks soooooo bad. The guy that plays Arnold is painful to look at in the promos.

But did you see the scene after he talked to "Warren" and they were showing the headline in the paper..and it was spelled BUFFET

I know it was a really bad made for TV movie, but couldn't they at least do alittle research and spell the name right???!! :evil:

I have to agree 100%. This would have been something interesting to watch. I just could not though. Just seeing the promos was bad enough. The actor did not look like him and did not sound like him. Too bad.

Yeah, that actor sounded like he was doing a bad imitation of someone else's bad imitation.

I saw a little of that movie, and it was baaaaad! They found the one person in the world who can't do a good Arnold impersonation.

But the guy who played him in his early/body building days was very good.

Actually if memory serves me correct, there was talk during the campaign about a news paper misspelling Buffett on one of the boards. Maybe they used an actual paper?
