After eight years of serving as California's Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger is apparently itching to be back in front of the camera - flexing his muscles and knocking some heads. Although he had brief cameo appearances in films like The Rundown, Around the World in 80 Days and last summer’s action hit The Expendables, the last time action fans were able to see the former Mr. Olympia in the starring role of a feature length film was back in 2003 with Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.

For weeks since his departure from the Governor's office, rumblings of Arnold being offered leading roles have been flowing hot and heavy from the Hollywood rumor machine. Cry Macho, The Last Stand and even a possible appearance in Terminator 5 have all been mentioned as potential vehicles for Arnold's triumphant return to acting.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Arnold wanting to pick up the action torch and start his movie career once again - after all he WAS the quintessential action star of the 1980s. However, we fear that both he and Hollywood inepts execs may try to get quality milk from a cinematic cow whose udders have long since dried up - specifically the absurd notion that Universal has approached Arnold to re-team with Danny DeVito for Twins 2.

We might not mind watching sequels to some of Arnold's more popular action films - Commando, Raw Deal, Red Heat - but there are some movies from Arnold's vast and diverse filmography which we would never want to see continued - starting with Twins. So we've decided to compile a list of six films from Arnold's filmography that should never, EVER be given a sequel.

SIDE NOTE: Big shout out to fellow Screen Rant writer Christopher Schrader for the spiffy posters!

Jamie spends Christmas Eve searching high and low for the hottest new toy of the season - Captain Junderpants - while his family enjoys the day’s festivities without him.

Let's hope none of these films ever get made - but knowing how Hollywood likes to scour the Internet looking for movie ideas, there is a good chance one or all of these projects could be coming soon to a theater near you. We apologize in advance if that happens.
