Were people actually stupider in the 80's to believe Jean Claude Van Damme and Arnold were "all-American" heroes with their thick as fuck accents. That shit simply does not fly today. People literally had lower IQs back then, correct?
>>
>>82433342
No, people still made fun of that shit even back then. The difference is that back then autists didn't have the voice that the internet has given them now, so it was relatively easy to get away with that shit back then. At least without being called out all the time.
>>
In some movies Van Damme said he was from Quebec.

>>82433342
Arnold embodied the American dream. Kill yourself my man.

America was founded by immigrants. In the 80s, we still remembered this.

true but Jean was super into showing off his ass for whatever reason
>>
>>82433342
they were seen as foreigners who did their best to be americans, like someone 1/4 foreign, 3/4 american.

They assumed they were american for being on the screen (good, wholesome, hardworking, sucessful) and maybe their accent was a thing because they went to the US when they were 6 or whatever
>>
>>82434157
can't be said enough.
well said.
>>
>>82434756
oh, you know the reason

(his ass was amazing)
>>
Van Damme was super hot in the 80's desu.
>>
>>82433342
Strangely enough having a thick foreign accent worked in favor of the movies, because the writers concentrated in writing short and memorable dialogs. Arnold built his career around these one liners.

Thanks to that we got immortal masterpieces like Commando.

Arnold is more American than you will ever be, you fucking millennial gluten free faggot.

Also this:
>>82434157

>>82433342
Van Damme's character in Bloodsport is specifically mentioned as having immigrated to America and they show his dad speaking with a French accent, so bad example you dumb FUCK. He also played characters named Deveraux, Boudreaux, and Dubois.

The only time it was blatantly stupid was when he played twins who were raised in different countries and they both had Van Damme's stupid accent.

Arnold no one gave a fuck about because he was basically another species. It's not like they gave his characters back stories where he talked about being raised in Kansas and shit. In Commando, his character talks about growing up in East Germany.
