Since we're on the topic of movies... what's your favorite movie appearance by a wrestler?

Andre. Princess Bride. Smokes everything on the list. Couldn't agree more. That movie is awesome and Andre's dialogue was priceless. I thought The Rock should also be up there for Walking Tall. He was good in that one.

Of the movies I've seen on this list- I am going with Roddy Piper in "They Live."
However, I still need to see "The Princess Bride"- maybe I'll rent it tomorrow because I have to return another DVD rental anyways.
I'm currently reading Terry Funk's book in which Funk said that he, through his previous connection to Sylvester Stallone in making the movie "Paradise Alley," was the one responsible for selecting Hulk Hogan for the part of Thunderclips in "Rocky III."
Did anybody else read the rumor that Triple H might get cast in the upcoming "Thor" movie?

Another good movie with a wrestler in it is "Predator" with Jesse Ventura.
About the Triple H-"Thor" rumor I mentioned, what I heard is that Triple H was suggested to play the role of Thor but the movie's director Matthew Vaughn was completely against the idea. I know there is more to acting than looks, but in terms of appearance, Triple H would be a good choice.

Did anybody else read the rumor that Triple H might get cast in the upcoming "Thor" movie? Yeah, and the director would want nothing to do with it if HHH signs on. He doesn't want wrestlers to be part of the project because of the Benoit scenario. Anyway, my pick is the Bob Sapp in the Longest Yard remake if that counts.

I went with Piper, but Andre and Ventura were both close.

Andre in Princess Bride.
I always thought Rock's most entertaining movie was The Rundown (with Stifler)

I like Walking Tall and the Princess Bride but Roddy Piper in "They Live" was a lot of fun.

Yeah, I'm for Andre as well though Savage's cameo in Spiderman was great.
