Talk:I'll be back

Lemonade Joe or the Horse Opera
Phrase "I'll be back" was also used in Czechoslovakian movie Lemonade Joe or the Horse Opera (Limonádový Joe aneb koňská opera, 1964), where the main character Joe says: "Já se vrátím... a nebudu sám Dougu Badmane, se mnou... přijde... zákon!" in English: "I'll be back... And I won't be alone, Doug Badman. With me, will... come... the LAW!" Robin WH (talk) 23:52, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Eli Wallach said it in The Magnificent Seven
The phrase "I'll be back" was said by Eli Wallach in "The Magnificent 7" 24 years before Arnold did it in "Terminator". See the movie at 5'30".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hityr5yr (talk • contribs) 11:34, 29 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Robert Vaughn said it three years earlier, as Buddy Root in No Time to Be Young (1957), after his lover tells him to leave (0h46m30s).
 * This is not really surprising, the phrase was already in use in the 19th century. Paradoctor (talk) 04:15, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

Beatles album
Does anyone else think that linking to a discussion of Schwarzenegger's catch phrase from a BEATLES album is ridiculous? ProfessorFokker 08:02, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Austrian Defence League
In this article, I read:
 * We'll be back was used as a slogan by the Austrian Defence League during the Resistance movement of the 1930s to the Austro-fascist Patriotic Front.

Does anyone know why an Austro-fascist movement would choose an English-language slogan?

I find this so unbelievable, that I decided to remove this text. If anyone has more information about the Austro-fascist Patriotic Front's slogan, and thinks that it is relevant in this article, that information can be added again. Johan Lont (talk) 10:25, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Douglas MacArthur
Am I the only one who has seen this quote as a version of Douglas MacArthurs old one? If so, it makes sense to not mention him and his quote here, of course. But really? Formerly very active, now only occasional editor (talk) 13:47, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Terminator 2
In the mall, the ginger kid says the catchphrase to John before going to get change for the arcade machines. Worthy of note? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.145.107.243 (talk) 00:16, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

I'll be back in T3
Inconspicuous. It was said by Kate at the beginning.

"I'll be back before you wake up." to her fiance Scott.

Obviously meant to have been added to make sure the phrase was used in all Terminator films but nobody seems to have noticed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.70.132 (talk) 15:03, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Also appeared in Duke Nukem 3d
SHould we add that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.27.68.175 (talk) 00:07, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Chronological error
The follow passage is inaccurate, in that his term as Governor was before 2012. He has not used the term, or done anything else, "as governor" since 2012. Whatever he may have done as governor was not "since" (after) a 2012 movie.

"   The Expendables 2 (2012) – Schwarzenegger's character Trench Mauser says "I'm back" upon rescuing the Expendables from a trapped mine. Later, in the final gunfight, he says "I'll be back" to Bruce Willis's character Mr. Church, to which Church replies "You've been back enough. I'll be back." Mauser then replies with "Yippee-ki-yay" (the catchphrase of John McClane, one of Willis's most famous action roles).

"Schwarzenegger has since used the phrase during public speeches as part of his career as the governor of the U.S. state of California.[5][6]"

Contradiction
The lead section says that the line was originally written as "I will be back". The history section infers that the line was written as "I'll be back" and Schwarzenegger asked to change it to "I will be back". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.83.178.236 (talk) 18:39, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

first use as a catchphrase
the exterminator (1980) series of films has the protagonist repeatedly saying "if youre lying ....... ill be back" 31.48.11.39 (talk) 15:19, 6 September 2014 (UTC)

In 1958, in The Rifleman, season 1, episode 11,"The Apprentice Sheriff", the first real action hero Chuck Connors, said to the young Marshall for the day played by Robert Vaughn, "I'll be back" before trying to negotiate a peace settlement with some Texas cowhands. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yelyab (talk • contribs) 09:16, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Arnold catchphrase, not Terminator
If this is a catchphrase popularized by Arnold, why are usages in the Terminator franchise the only ones elaborated upon? Mention others, like Last Action Hero? 🖖 ChristTrekker 🗣 19:57, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
