Expendables 2 and Other Arnold Movie Props at Planet Hollywood!
When Schwarzenegger left Planet Hollywood behind long ago, many of his film props once located at the restaurants would be sold at auction or they'd head back to Arnold's personal warehouse. There were once nearly 100 Planet Hollywood restaurants worldwide, but now, there are roughly ten that remain and only 3 or 4 in the United States. Out of all of these locations, the best one to visit and still see many Arnold props is Planet Hollywood, Orlando!
Arnold fan James Only just got back from this location and he's sharing with us all of the items which still remain. Not only will you see the classic props, The Expendables 2 wardrobe is also currently on display!
Now let's get a look at the older items from Arnold's films like Terminator 2, Jingle All the Way, Conan, Junior and Last Action Hero!
Finally, James Only tells us about some movie weaponry found at the National Rifle Association Head Quarters! James writes:
I was living in Reston, Virginia for half of 2011. During that time, I had a brief assignment working at the National Rifle Association Head Quarters in nearby Fairfax, Virginia. "While widely recognized today as a major political force and as America's foremost defender of Second Amendment rights, the NRA has, since its inception, been the premier firearms education organization in the world." (http://home.nra.org/#/nraorg/text/generic_page,3). It was a short assignment but if you ever visit the area, I would encourage you to check out the NRA Museum. It is free, all you need to do is go check in at the front desk. The museum is home to thousands and thousands of firearms both past and present. What I thought was cool besides many of the historical weapons was they have a Hollywood section that houses many guns or weapon props used in movies such as Star Wars, Terminator 3, Sin City, Reservoir Dogs etc.
