HOW ARE YOU?
I HAVE TO SAY --
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
-- THAT --
>> VERY NICE.
>> Jimmy: I'M VERY IMPRESSED
THAT YOU'RE HERE BECAUSE YOU HAD
TO BE EVACUATED FROM YOUR HOME
LAST NIGHT, CORRECT?
>> YEAH, BUT THAT'S NOTHING FOR
AN ACTION HERO.
COME ON.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: THAT'S TRUE.
>> THAT'S A PIECE OF CAKE.
I MEAN, I'M A POSITIVE PERSON.
I TELL YOU THAT I'M HAPPY MY
HOUSE HASN'T BURNED DOWN.
>> Jimmy: I'M SURE YOU ARE.
>> AND I'M SURE YOU TOO.
YOU WERE EVACUATED
>> Jimmy: NO.
MY BROTHER WAS BUT I LIVE IN A
DIFFERENT PART OF TOWN.
ARE YOU DISAPPOINTED?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> YEAH, I AM DISAPPOINTED NOW.
>> Jimmy: NO, I JUST DROVE IN
REGULAR.
SO YOU HAVE A LOT OF ANIMALS,
RIGHT?
>> YEAH.
I HAVE A PONY, A MINIATURE PONY.
I HAVE TWO DOGS.
YEAH, THERE'S A LOT OF ACTIVITY
UP THERE.
>> Jimmy: WHAT DO YOU DO WITH
THE PONY?
THROW THAT IN THE TRUNK?
OR HOW DOES THAT GO?
DO YOU RIDE THE PONY OUT?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> WE SEND IT TO SLEEPING CAMP,
OVERNIGHT SLEEPING CAMP.
>> Jimmy: A SLEEPAWAY CAM P.
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
>> Jimmy: A SLEEPING CAMP
DOESN'T SOUND SO GOOD.
>> NO?
>> Jimmy: WELL, YOU PUT A DOG TO
SLEEP, YOU --
>> NO.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT
CLEAR YOU DID NOT EUTHANIZE YOUR
PONY.
>> I'VE ONLY BEEN IN AMERICA FOR
51 YEARS.
GIVE ME A BREAK.
>> Jimmy: HOW IS IT POSSIBLE
THAT YOUR ACCENT HAS NOT
SUBSIDED EVEN TO THE SLIGHTEST
DEGREE?
[ LAUGHTER ]
YOU MAINTAIN THIS ACCENT.
HOW CAN THAT BE?
>> I THINK IT HAS TO DO THAT I'M
HANGING OUT WITH SLY EVERY SO
OFTEN.
>> Jimmy: SLY STALLONE?
>> ABSOLUTELY, YES.
>> Jimmy: I WANT TO ASK YOU
ABOUT SLY.
BUT I WANT TO ASK YOU A COUPLE
MORE THINGS.
YOU WERE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE.
AND YOU HAD A LOT OF THIS SORT
OF THING TO DEAL WITH.
WHAT WAS THE BIGGEST EMERGENCY
SITUATION YOU THAT PRESIDED OVER
WHEN YOU WERE GOVERNOR?
>> WELL, ONE TIME -- FIRST OF
ALL, YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
FIRES HAPPEN ALL THE TIME.
AND I THINK THAT DURING MY
ADMINISTRATION WE HAVE SEEN
BECAUSE OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND
OTHER THINGS THE FIRES
INCREASED.
THERE WAS NO MORE FIRE SEASON.
IT WAS KIND OF ALL YEAR ROUND,
LIKE AS YOU CAN SEE.
THIS IS VERY UNUSUAL, THEY HAVE
IN OCTOBER SUCH HUGE FIRES.
>> Jimmy: YEAH, SURE.
>> SO THEY ARE NOT ONLY IN
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BUT THEY'RE
IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA.
THEY'RE ALL OVER THE PLACE.
AND WHEN I WAS GOVERNOR, THERE
WAS ONE TIME I WENT TO BED AND
THEY SAID THERE'S 500 FIRES ALL
OVER CALIFORNIA.
AND THAT WAS LIKE -- I COULDN'T
SLEEP THE WHOLE NIGHT.
I WAS UP THINKING TO MYSELF HOW
DO YOU HANDLE THIS AND WHAT DO
YOU DO ABOUT IT?
HOW DO YOU HAVE THE RESOURCES
FOR ALL, THIS DIFFERENT PLACES
AND ALL THIS?
AND THEN IN THE MORNING I GET UP
AND I MAKE A CALL AND THEY TELL
ME THERE'S NOW 2,012 FIRES ALL
OVER CALIFORNIA.
>> Jimmy: WOW.
>> JUST TO THINK -- TO SHOW YOU
THE SIZE OF IT ALL.
IT'S SO OVERWHELMING YOU THAT
REALLY HAVE TO KIND OF PULL YOUR
ACT TOGETHER AND GET IN -- THE
NATIONAL GUARD WAS HELPING.
EVERYONE WAS HELPING.
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WAS
HELPING.
THE LOCAL FIREFIGHTERS.
AND WE HAVE ONE BIG ADVANTAGE
HERE IN CALIFORNIA WHEN IT COMES
TO THOSE KIND OF EVENTS, AND
THAT IS WE HAVE THE GREATEST
FIREFIGHTERS IN THE WORLD, BAR
NONE.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: WE HAVE GREAT
FIREFIGHTERS.
WE DO.
AND THEY SEEM TO COORDINATE VERY
WELL.
>> YEAH.
WE NEED MORE RESOURCES, THOUGH.
IT WAS VERY CLEAR THAT AS WE
INCREASED IN THE AMOUNT OF FIRES
THAT WE NEED MORE AIRPLANES, YOU
KNOW, TO DUMP FIRE RETARDANT.
WE NEED MORE HELICOPTERS, MORE
SOPHISTICATED HELICOPTERS.
NOT JUST THE HUEYS FROM THE
VIETNAM WAR.
WE NEEDED THE BLACKHAWK
HELICOPTERS SO THEY CAN FLY AT
NIGHT AND DUMP WATER AT NIGHT,
WHICH IS VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE
RIGHT NOW WE STILL DON'T HAVE
THE ABILITY OF REALLY DUMPING AT
NIGHT.
SO WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE
MORNING.
>> Jimmy: DO YOU AGREE WITH THE
PRESIDENT THAT IF WE RAKED THE
FOREST MORE FREQUENTLY THAT WE
WOULD NOT HAVE FIRES HERE?
>> WELL, THERE'S NOT THAT MANY
THINGS THAT I AGREE WITH HIM ON.
[ LAUGHTER ]
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: IN HAPPIER NEWS I WANT
TO CONGRATULATE YOU.
YOU GOT A PRETTY GREAT GUY
JOINING YOUR FAMILY.
CHRIS PRATT MARRIED YOUR
DAUGHTER, KATHERINE, WHICH IS --
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
I WOULD ASSUME SOMETHING YOU
WERE VERY HAPPY ABOUT.
>> YEAH, I DON'T KNOW IF -- THE
THING IS THAT FIRST OF ALL, I'M
REALLY HAPPY THAT HE IS SUCH A
GREAT GUY.
>> Jimmy: YES.
>> NOT ONLY VERY TALENTED GUY
AND A GREAT ACTOR AND A GREAT
STAR AND ALL THIS STUFF BUT A
REALLY KIND MAN AND KIND TO MY
DAUGHTER, WHICH IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING FOR ME.
BUT I WAS LIKE BLOWN AWAY WHEN
MY DAUGHTER WAS TELLING ME THAT
SHE'S GOING OUT WITH HIM BECAUSE
I WAS SAYING DO YOU HAVE TO BE
SO COMPETITIVE?
DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE A GUY THAT
IS TALLER THAN ME, THAT IS
BIGGER THAN ME, THAT'S DOING
BIGGER MOVIES THAN ME AND ALL OF
THIS KIND OF STUFF, THAT MAKES
MORE MONEY THAN ME?
WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?
[ LAUGHTER ]
SO I THINK IT WAS REALLY WILD.
I MEAN, TO HAVE ALL OF A SUDDEN
THIS GUY IN THE FAMILY.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> BUT LIKE I SAID, HE'S A
REALLY NICE GUY AND HE'S VERY
TALENTED.
I GET ALONG WITH HIM VERY WELL.
AND OF COURSE THE FIRST THING
WHEN WE MET, HE SAYS, CAN WE
EVER WORK OUT TOGETHER?
I NEED TO HAVE THE INSIDE SCOOP
TO PUMPING IRON.
>> Jimmy: RIGHT.
AND DID THAT HAPPEN?
>> I TOOK HIM TO THE GYM AND WE
WORKED OUT.
>> Jimmy: WERE YOU IMPRESSED?
WAS THAT PART OF HOW YOU DECIDED
WHETHER HE COULD BE A PART OF
YOUR FAMILY OR NOT?
WATCHING HIM WORK OUT?
>> THAT -- PUMPING IRON WAS THE
DECISION-MAKING FACTOR.
[ LAUGHTER ]
ABSOLUTELY, YEAH.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
WE WERE IN THE GYM.
>> Jimmy: WHO BENCHES MORE, YOU
OR CHRIS PRATT?
>> YOU KNOW, I REALLY DON'T KNOW
BECAUSE I HAVEN'T BENCH PRESSED
FOR A WHILE BECAUSE MY SHOULDERS
ARE KIND OF INJURED.
>> Jimmy: I SEE.
>> BUT HE'S A STRONG GUY,
THERE'S NO TWO WAYS ABOUT IT,
AND I'M VERY PROUD OF HIM.
AND LIKE I JUST SAID, WHEN I
WATCHED HIM MAKE THESE MOVES IN
THE GYM, YOU KNOW, THE INCLINE
PRESS SPECIFICALLY DID IT.
>> Jimmy: OH.
>> WHY I WANTED HIM TO BECOME MY
SON-IN-LAW.
IT WAS THE INCLINE PRESS.
>> Jimmy: THAT'S WHAT ALWAYS
GETS YOU, THE INCLINE PRESS.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
THE INCLINE PRESS, YEAH.
THAT DOES IT.
>> Jimmy: DID HE ASK YOU FOR
PERMISSION TO TAKE YOUR
DAUGHTER'S HAND IN MARRIAGE?
>> ABSOLUTELY, YEAH.
IN A VERY TRADITIONAL WAY.
>> Jimmy: THAT'S GOOD.
YOU NEED THAT, RIGHT?
>> VERY GOOD.
>> Jimmy: THAT'S ESSENTIAL.
>> ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL.
>> Jimmy: DID HE INVITE YOU TO
THE BACHELOR PARTY?
>> NO.
>> Jimmy: HE DID NOT?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> HE DID NOT, NO.
>> Jimmy: IT WOULD HAVE BEEN
MORE FUN IF YOU WERE THERE,
THOUGH, I BET.
>> I WOULD HAVE REALLY MADE SURE
THAT EVERYTHING IS COOL THERE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I DIDN'T WANT HIS BACHELOR PARTY
TONED UP LIKE MY BACHELOR PARTY.
>> Jimmy: WHAT WAS YOUR BACHELOR
PARTY LIKE?
>> IT WAS WILD.
IT WAS WITH ANIMALS AND --
>> Jimmy: OH, MY GOD.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> THEY BROUGHT IN SHEEP AND
GARTER BELTS AND STUFF LIKE
THAT.
AND IT WAS NOT PRETTY.
I WOULDN'T WISH IT ON ANY KIND
OF SON-IN-LAW.
>> Jimmy: THAT PONY MUST BE
NERVOUS UP THERE AT THE HOUSE.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
>> Jimmy: YOU MENTIONED
SYLVESTER STALLONE.
AND I WANT TO ASK YOU A STORY I
HEARD ABOUT SYLVESTER STALLONE.
IS IT TRUE THAT YOU TRICKED
SYLVESTER STALLONE, WHO IS -- IS
HE A FRIEND AND A RIVAL OR JUST
A RIVAL?
>> NO, NO.
IN THE '80s HE WAS JUST A RIVAL.
>> Jimmy: JUST A RIVAL.
>> IT WAS JUST COMPETITION.
IT WAS ALL ABOUT WHO IS MAKING
BIGGER MOVIES, WHO HAS MORE
DEFINITION IN THEIR MUSCLES, WHO
HAS MORE BOX OFFICE SUCCESS, WHO
KILLS MORE PEOPLE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WHO KILLS PEOPLE MORE
CREATIVELY.
WHO HAS BIGGER KNIVES.
WHO HAS BIGGER GUNS.
IN THE END I STARTED RUNNING
AROUND WITH MACHINE GUNS THAT
WERE ONLY USED FOR HELICOPTERS,
MOUNTING ON HELICOPTERS OR ON
TANKS.
IT WAS CRAZY.
IT WAS ALL-OUT WAR.
>> Jimmy: SO THE STORY GOES THAT
YOU SOMEHOW TRICKED HIM INTO
MAKING A VERY BAD MOVIE.
>> YES.
>> Jimmy: AND IS THAT TRUE?
>> YES.
WHETHER IT'S PART OF THE --
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: HOW IN THE WORLD --
HOW DID YOU MANAGE TO DO THAT?
HOW DID YOU PULL THAT OFF?
>> WELL, BECAUSE THEY CAME TO ME
BECAUSE HOLLYWOOD KNEW THAT I
WAS WANTING TO GET OUT OF JUST
DOING ACTION MOVIES AND DO
COMEDIES.
THAT'S WHY I DID THEN "TWINS"
AND "KINDERGARTEN COP" AND
MOVIES LIKE THAT.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
THANK YOU.
SO THEY CAME TO ME WITH THIS
OTHER MOVIE AND -- I FORGOT NOW
WHAT IT WAS CALLED.
>> Jimmy: "STOP OR MY MOM WILL
SHOOT."
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
I READ THE SCRIPT AND IT WAS A
PIECE OF [ BLEEP ].
[ LAUGHTER ]
I SAID TO MYSELF I'M NOT GOING
TO DO THIS MOVIE.
SO THEN THEY WENT TO SLY AND
THEN SLY CALLED ME AND HE SAYS,
HEY, HAVE THEY EVER TALKED TO
YOU ABOUT THIS MOVIE?
AND I SAID YES.
I WAS THINKING ABOUT DOING IT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I SAID THIS IS A REALLY
BRILLIANT IDEA, THIS MOVIE.
AND SO WHEN HE HEARD THAT
BECAUSE HE WAS IN COMPETITION HE
IMMEDIATELY CALLED THEM AND
SAYS, LOOK, WHATEVER IT TAKES, I
DO THE MOVIE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
SO HE DID THE MOVIE.
OF COURSE THE MOVIE WENT MAJOR
INTO THE TOILET.
MAJOR.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: YOU ARE A DIABOLICAL
MAN.
ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER IS HERE.
HIS MOVIE IS "TERMINATOR: DARK
FATE."
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
[ GUNFIRE ]
♪
>> Jimmy: THAT IS ARNOLD
SCHWARZENEGGER AND
"TERMINATOR: DARK FATE."
IT OPENS IN THEATERS ON FRIDAY.
THAT LOOKS GOOD.
>> BOOM!
>> Jimmy: DID YOU DO THAT?
YOU SLAMMED HIM TO THE GROUND
LIKE THAT?
>> I HAD TO.
[ LAUGHTER ]
THIS WAS A VERY SUCCESSFUL
MACHINE, I CAN TELL YOU THAT.
I MEAN, ITS ABILITIES -- IT'S
CALLED THE REV 9.
ITS ABILITIES ARE MUCH BETTER
THAN THE T-800, THAN I AM.
>> Jimmy: RIGHT.
>> SO IT REALLY TOOK A LOT OF
KIND OF ACTION TO, YOU KNOW,
KIND OF CONFRONT THIS KIND OF
MONSTER.
>> Jimmy: ONE OF THE THINGS I
LOVE YOU GUYS DID IS THIS IS THE
FIRST TAMEIME YOU AND JAMES CAMN
AND LINDA HAMILTON HAVE WORKED
TOGETHER SINCE T-2.
YOU JUST IGNORED THE OTHER
MOVIES IN THE MIDDLE AND PICKED
THIS ONE UP AS THE THIRD.
>> WELL, I DIDN'T.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I DID "TERMINATOR 3" AND
"TERMINATOR 5."
THE OTHER ONE I DIDN'T DO
BECAUSE I WAS GOVERNOR.
BUT IT DEALS WITH THE TIME
TRAVEL, IT DEALS WITH THE
FUTURE, WITH THE PAST AND THE
PRESENT AND ACTION.
YOU KNOW, I THINK THERE ARE
CERTAIN PEOPLE LIKE LINDA
HAMILTON AND JIM CAMERON, THEY
FEEL VERY STRONGLY THAT THIS IS
NOW THE SEQUEL TO THE NUMBER 2.
SO LET THEM HAVE IT.
>> Jimmy: OKAY.
>> I'M NOT GOING TO ARGUE WITH
THEM.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: WHY WOULD YOU?
>> YEAH.
>> Jimmy: ANOTHER THING.
I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT T-800.
THERE'S A STORY THAT YOU'VE TOLD
THAT THE ORIGINAL CHOICE, THE
ACTOR WHO WAS GOING TO PLAY
T-800 WAS O.J. SIMPSON.
>> RIGHT.
>> Jimmy: NOW -- WHICH IS CRAZY
JUST TO START WITH.
>> BUT THE INTERESTING THING
ABOUT IT IS THEY THEN CHOSE ME
BECAUSE THEY FELT THAT O.J.
DIDN'T LOOK ENOUGH OF A KILLING
MACHINE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
FIGURE.
>> Jimmy: HOLLYWOOD.
>> BUT HERE'S THE INTERESTING
THING.
HERE'S THE INTERESTING THING.
NOW BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED
WITH O.J. --
>> Jimmy: WAIT, WHAT HAPPENED?
[ LAUGHTER ]
DID SOMETHING HAPPEN TO O.J.?
>> SO BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED
THEY NOW DENY THAT THEY EVER HAD
O.J. IN MIND IN THE FIRST PLACE.
CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?
>> Jimmy: THAT'S WHAT I WANTED
TO ASK.
JIM CAMERON SAID THIS WEEKEND-E
SAID LET ME CORRECT THAT RIGHT
NOW, ARNOLD IS LITERALLY JUST
WRONG, I KNOW IT'S HARD TO
IMAGINE, YOU DON'T ARGUE WITH
ARNOLD.
O.J. SIMPSON WAS NEVER IN THE
MIX AT ALL.
THAT WAS REJECTED OUT OF HAND
BEFORE IT EVEN GOT ANY TRACTION.
THERE'S NO O.J. UNDER -- HE SAID
YOU HAVE A PAINTING PAINTED BY
JIM CAMERON AND YOU SAID THAT
O.J.'S HEAD IS UNDER YOUR HEAD,
HE PAINTED YOUR HEAD OVER?
>> YEAH.
BUT I DON'T WANT TO SCRAPE MY
FACE OFF.
TO PROVE IT THAT I'M RIGHT.
LOOK, LET'S ASSUME FOR A SECOND
HE'S RIGHT, THAT HE DIDN'T GET
ENOUGH TRACTION.
THAT'S THE POINT I'M MAKING.
IT DIDN'T GET ENOUGH TRACTION
BECAUSE HE WAS NOT BELIEVABLE
ENOUGH AS A KILLING MACHINE.
SO THEY SAID LET'S GET SCHNITZEL
FROM AUSTRIA.
HE CAN PULL IT OFF.
SO THAT'S IT.
AND IT WAS THE BIGGEST CAREER
CHANGER FOR ME.
IT WAS THE BIGGEST CAREER
BOOSTER.
IT WAS FANTASTIC WORKING WITH
JIM CAMERON AND WITH LINDA
HAMILTON IN THE FIRST ONE, IN
THE SECOND ONE.
AND NOW IN THIS ONE.
JIM CAMERON CREATED THE STORY.
HE DID A FANTASTIC JOB.
AND YOU KNOW, HE'S A VERY CLOSE
FRIEND OF MINE.
I RESPECT HIM HIGHLY.
HE'S A PROPHET EXTRAORDINARY
DIRECTOR.
AND ALSO TIM MILLER, WHO
DIRECTED NOT THIS ONE IS ALSO A
FANTASTIC DIRECTOR THAT HAS THE
ABILITY OF PULLING OFF, YOU
KNOW, THE ACTION AND THE VISUAL
EFFECTS.
AND IT'S VERY IMPORTANT.
>> Jimmy: THE ACTION AND VISUAL
EFFECTS ALL VERY IMPORTANT.
BUT THE THING YOU PROBABLY MORE
THAN ANY OTHER ACTOR ARE FAMOUS
FOR IS LIKE A CATCHPHRASE, A
LINE FROM THE MOVIE, SOMETIMES
TWO, SOMETIMES THREE LINES FROM
A MOVIE THAT BECOME PART OF THE
ENGLISH LANGUAGE, BASICALLY.
>> RIGHT.
>> Jimmy: SO WHAT I WOULD LIKE
TO ASK YOU IS THIS.
WE'VE GOT A BOWL.
AND IN THE BOWL ARE A BUNCH OF
FAMOUS LINES FROM OTHER FAMOUS
MOVIES, MOVIES YOU WERE NOT IN.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> WHAT?
>> Jimmy: YOU WERE NOT IN.
BUT I WOULD LOVE YOU TO GO
THROUGH THE BOWL, PULL OUT SOME
OF THESE LINES, YOU TRANSLATE
THEM INTO ARNOLDESE AND DO THEM
AS YOU WOULD HAVE DONE THEM WERE
YOU IN THESE FILMS.
>> ALL RIGHT.
>> Jimmy: YES?
SO GRAB ONE AND THEN IF YOU
COULD JUST LOOK RIGHT AT THAT
CAMERA AND READ IT IN -- OKAY.
>> SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE
FRIEND.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
I LOVE IT ALREADY.
♪
>> TOTO, I HAVE A FEELING THAT
WE ARE NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
♪
NO ONE PUTS BABY IN A CORNER.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: YOU WANT TO DO ONE
MORE?
GIVE US ONE MORE.
>> SURE.
IT'S ACTUALLY A FUNNY GAME.
>> Jimmy: THIS COULD BE --
>> WE ARE HAVING A REALLY GOOD
TIME.
YIPPEE KI-YAY, MOTHER [ BLEEP ].
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
