I forgot I ordered it, if I'm honest, considering I purchased it within 5 seconds of receiving the e-mail that Zavvi was making a steelbook version of Last Action Hero. To say watching Arnold Schwarzenegger was a massive part of my childhood, would be an understatement. I remember my dad learning, when I was about nine, that I had never seen the Terminator and demanding that no one spoil it for me. We watched both T-1 and T-2 that afternoon - with me covering my eyes and ears for some censorship - but I got the gist. I was shocked to see him as a villain, considering my first exposures to him had been Commando and this film. I love Arnold's films. They represent an era in action films where the hero was made of steel, untouchable, and though that's pretty unrealistic these days, it does also emulate old comics. A lot of it goes back to the fundamentals of right and wrong, where we want to believe good will always triumph over evil, and Arnold was apart of a lot of kids feeling like that was true.
