Summary
Arnie is a short game that celebrates being gloriously obvious. Pick a famous film or scene, then play every character as Arnold Schwarzenegger — or any impression you love. Spot-on accuracy isn't the goal here. Going all in is.
How to Play
- Get a suggestion for a famous film or scene.
- Play the scene with every character talking and moving like Arnold Schwarzenegger (or your chosen impression).
- Commit fully — going for it beats getting it exactly right.
Required Materials
- A film or famous scene suggested by the audience.
Purpose
This one builds your knack for being obvious, plus commitment and bold choices. The bigger you play it, the better it gets.
Variations
- Can be done with other famous impressions.
- Can also be done as a fictional improvised action movie where everyone plays "Arnie".
