- From the Action Hero Championship Belt piece: this was an 'A-Fucking-Pex' stretch for Arnold with Kindergarten Cop and T2 within about 14 months, but asked to choose, the others pick T2 as his Apex.
- Terminator 2 or 1 is the movie tied to Arnold forever; Total Recall is the deep cut, and the stretch culminates in T2.
- His pay, veto power and 15% of profits may have earned him $100 million, though this was not his most successful movie.
- Rachel Ticotin is contested: this might be her Apex for her action work, while another host picks Man on Fire as his personal Apex and a better performance.
- Marshall Bell (George and Kuato) is picked over Ironside because he plays two characters in one scene; both are briefly allowed, and it is called the Apex of both careers.
- Ironside is then placed at Starship Troopers instead, since a host assigns Apex by the first role that comes to mind; the others accept.
- For Ronny Cox, one answer is RoboCop while two voices pick this role.
- Mars: the case is made that this, not The Martian, is Mars's Apex, since it is about an idealized Mars rather than a Matt Damon vehicle that could have been set on the moon.
- A host leans to The Martian but concedes; the argument cites that living on Mars still seemed conceivable in 1990 and that the way characters say 'Mars' is more fun.
- Venusville is mentioned, and three-breasted and four-breasted women are named an Apex because they have never been seen since.
