And I said, well, I said, why don't we go, since I was a tank driver in the Army, why don't we get a machine gun from a tank? I said, they are bigger than from a helicopter. I said, that's what I'm going to have in Predator. And so we got a big gun that you normally can't hold. It's stupid stuff like that. And then, you know, I counted. It was like killing 46 people, so I had to kill 64 people.

Just turned the number around. And it's just crazy stuff like that. It's just dudes being dudes, basically. Yeah, exactly. That's right. And out came this real great, great action movies.

I was getting a million dollars now for Conan number two. Right, this was 1983. And then I'm reading, I said Sly just made a deal to get five million dollars for a movie. So I said, what the fuck? And then it's like, okay, I'm a fifth. This has to stop. So I worked my way up, and I did everything I could. Eventually, the next movie, I got three million. Then it was always doubling.

Then it was $6 million. And so this is how I got up. And then eventually... I remember I got $10 million, I think it was for Total Recall, and it was in 1989. And Sly signed a deal for in one of his movies at number three for $15 million. I said, Jesus Christ, I can't catch up. What is going on here? There was always some number that was bigger than mine.

And then eventually I think we ended up both at $20 million as kind of like our standard salary. And there we were together now all of a sudden. This was like in the 90s. And then I did Batman and Robin, where I got $30 million. They wanted me so bad for this movie, because I didn't want to really play the villain, Mr. Freeze. And so they said, we'll give you $25 million.

So then he called me back like a month later. And he said, we give you $30 million plus we give you points and back end and blah, blah, blah. So I said, okay, I do it. He's like, Ines Lai doesn't have $30 million. So I said, this is kind of my way to pay back for all the tortures over the years that he got more than I did. So this is how the competition went.

So everyone wanted to know kind of the inside scope.
