Matt Damon explains why Miami drug cops have to count seized cash on-site so no one can pocket $600,000 and claim it was never there. “They think there's going to be $75,000 or $150,000 in the house, and suddenly they find $20 million in the wall.” “That means it's cartel money, which means they're probably going to come try to get it.” You never really think about why they count the cash on the spot until someone explains it like this. It suddenly makes perfect sense. Did you already know this?

50 Cent says he was paid $17,000 per episode on Power while executive producing, doing music, and running all promotion “I took a pay cut to be there the entire time that I was on that show. I was being paid in the very beginning $17,000 per episode while executive producing the show, being the music supervisor pretty much, then doing the theme song and all the promotion and publicity.” “It wasn't until the third season that they would accept the show on Good Morning America without me being there.” “I was technically the star of Power until I introduced everybody to it and then Omari Hardwick turned into the Star of Power.” Never would've guessed he was only making $17,000 an episode with everything he was doing behind the scenes. Would you rather take less money for more ownership or the biggest paycheck upfront?

Arnold Schwarzenegger reveals Stallone has a custom shirt with a strap under the crotch to keep it tucked, 'Who thinks about this?' Arnold: “So I go to visit his set. And he says, 'Arnold, I don't like when your shirts are baggy.' I said, 'What am I going to do about it? Sometimes when you go like this, it pulls out.'” Stallone: “I just ordered another dozen.” Arnold: “He has that shirt, shirt maker makes a shirt that has it pulled underneath like diapers and then pulled up on the other end so the shirt stays down, because God forbid you're doing a movie and there's a wrinkle in a shirt.” I honestly never would've expected something like this from Stallone. I thought Arnold was joking until he kept explaining it. Be honest... did you know shirts like this were actually a thing?

Arnold Schwarzenegger admits he tricked Stallone into taking a bad movie so he could catch up, 'I felt like the only way was if he had a stumble' Host: “One of my favorite stories about you guys was Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot.” Host: “Because you knew it was a bad script and acted like you wanted it. You got suckered in.” Stallone: “Yeah, so he played me. Yes, he did. He did, and I'm stuck with that forever.” Arnold: “So then I called Roger Spottiswoode, who was the director, who just did the James Bond movie.” Stallone: “You talked to my director? Yeah. Oh my god.” Arnold: “So I was of course absolutely in heaven because I said I felt like the only way that I could catch up with him is if he has a stumble.” Arnold: “Sure enough, the movie came out, it was a disaster.” Arnold: “And everyone was writing, 'What a day. The heydays are over for Sly.' So I said, 'Well, okay, this is now a moment for me to catch up.'”

Stallone says 'what doesn't kill you' is a lie, Arnold fires back that it killed his brother, then credits his brutal childhood for making him leave Austria Stallone: “I can't just blame it on them, cuz when I go back and I look at my mother's upbringing, orphanages and this and that, they were angry. And they just thought, 'That's the way I'm going to pass it on. You're not going to be happy if I'm not happy.'” Arnold: “My brother Meinhard, he died. He died because his reaction was to become an alcoholic himself. One day driving with a car and then hitting a telegraph post. And just smashed into it and got killed.” Arnold: “And on top of it, I said to myself, 'If I would have grown up like some people do with all the love in the world, I would have never left home. I would have stayed in Austria.'” Stallone: “You escaped in bodybuilding. I escaped the theater cuz I wasn't too happy with the reality. So I said, 'This is my world cuz I don't like this one.' I think that we were going to do it no matter what. It just would have been nice with a little bit more encouragement. That's all.” Hearing Arnold talk about his brother completely changes the tone of the conversation. I wasn't expecting it to get that personal. Which part of this conversation stood out to you the most?

Arnold Schwarzenegger reveals he demanded a helicopter-mounted machine gun for Predator specifically to out-do Stallone's Rambo weapon Arnold: “We ended up kind of like, 'You killed 28 people in the movie. I killed 32.' I got to top that.” Arnold: “It was not the body count, and then it was kind of like, 'Well, what was your body fat?' You know, I was down to 7%. So I said, 'I was down to 10%.' So it became a competition with the body.” Arnold: “'Well Arnold, you can never hold that.' I said, 'We'll figure out a way. Don't worry about it. I got to have a bigger gun, a bigger machine gun than Sly used in Rambo.'” Arnold: “So then he killed, you know, 80 people, and I had to kill 87 people. And you got sucked into it too, because the difference between Rambo 1 and 2 and 3 and 4, you got bigger guns, bigger body count, the whole thing.”

Matt Damon says Eastwood did 40 takes with a 9-year-old non-actor after giving every professional on Invictus exactly one “One take for everybody all through Invictus. Morgan Freeman, you know, all everybody gets one take.” “His whole mentality was your crew will go to the ends of the earth for you as long as you're not taxing them on every shot.” I had no idea Eastwood worked like this. The "one take" rule is the last thing I would've expected from a director with that many classics. Did you know Clint Eastwood worked like this?

Arnold Schwarzenegger says the injuries were not worth it, Stallone adds 'I was never whole from the point I did the first Expendables' Host: “You've had all sorts of operations. Seven back operations? Three neck fusions, shoulders, everything.” Host: “Do you ever wake up and just say, 'Why did I do this?'” Stallone: “I do. The pleasure was not worth the pain. I like doing some of it, but there was a point when I should have slowed it down and used a pro.” Stallone: “I should have stopped right before the first Expendables. That's what did me in. I was never whole from that point on.”

Arnold Schwarzenegger says he made just 10% of Stallone's salary, and reveals how he reacted every time Stallone broke a pay record. “So I didn't boycott his movies or anything like this. I loved when he did Rambo. I loved when he did Rocky. I loved all this stuff. I had to kind of catch up to that.” “It became then very very competitive, the whole thing.” I think that's what made their rivalry so interesting. They respected each other, but neither one wanted to fall behind. Do you think this kind of competition is healthy?

Matt Damon says Clint Eastwood told him Unforgiven was the script he went back to after 5 years of failed rewrites “I said to him, 'Hey boss, you know that scene on Tuesday, do you mind if I tinker with the dialogue?' And he goes, 'Yeah, sure. Go ahead.'” “I go, 'I wrote it and I rewrote it all weekend. I wrote it probably 27 drafts and then I got it perfect and I looked back and it was exactly the same as I originally was.'” “He goes, 'I worked for five years on this thing and it wasn't getting better and I couldn't figure it out.'” “He said, 'I'm making your script exactly as you wrote it.' And I said, 'No way. What movie?' And he said, 'Unforgiven.'”

A$AP Rocky spent Christmas at Denzel Washington's house after his father died. What happened when Denzel walked in stayed with him forever. A$AP Rocky: "My dad died on Christmas Eve... every Christmas I tend to get depressed and stay by myself." A$AP Rocky: "John David was like, 'Yo, it's Christmas... y'all come to the crib!'" A$AP Rocky: "We got there... it was just a family vibe." A$AP Rocky: "OG just came through... it was like a movie. I damn near might have saw a light behind him." A$AP Rocky: "He gave me some of the illest advice. He was like, 'In a few years, you gotta get it together. It's about the family.'" A$AP Rocky: "I'll never forget that." It's easy to see why he never forgot that moment. Sometimes the right words just stay with you forever. What's the best piece of advice you've ever received?

Eddie Murphy reveals Arnold Schwarzenegger personally pitched him on Triplets: "You're the black one." "They were going to do a sequel to Twins... Arnold was there. He said, 'You're going to do it. It's going to be funny. We'll all look different. Danny's little, I'm big, and you're the black one.'" You can just picture Arnold saying that with a completely straight face. It's one of those ridiculous movie ideas that somehow probably would've worked. Would you have watched Triplets if it had actually been made?

Stallone reveals Dolph Lundgren hit him so hard filming Rocky IV that he ended up in the hospital for 9 days Host: “Dolph Lundgren, you told him to hit you and you ended up in the hospital for 9 days.” Stallone: “He almost killed me. Yeah. That was a freakish accident. It was just freakish.” Stallone: “I did ask for it, but I didn't think he'd hit so hard, you know.” Stallone: “I think I talk to my wife every day about it. Absolutely not worth it in the sense that you don't know when to quit. I should have stopped right before the first Expendables. That's what did me in. I was never whole from that point on.”

Matt Damon says Jason Bourne's entire six-passport identity scheme is now useless because airports just scan your iris. "I'll go through airports now and you don't even have to show your passport. It's all your eye scan and I think Jason Bourne is now screwed. Now his safety deposit box has six eyes." I never really thought about it until he mentioned it. Technology moves so fast that some movie plots just don’t work anymore. What’s another movie that couldn’t happen the same way today because of modern technology?

Matt Damon says watching the Beatles' last rooftop concert made him call Ben Affleck about not letting decades slip by without working together “Peter Jackson put this chiron up and it said, 'This is the last time the Beatles played live together.'” “My youngest was, I think, 11 at the time, and she just goes, 'Dad, why are you crying?' tears were just pouring down my face.” “Suddenly a couple decades went by and it was like now we're in our 50s.”

Arnold Schwarzenegger says Stallone's paintings sell for several hundred thousand dollars, and reveals how Stallone taught him to paint bolder Host: “What do you admire about him?” Stallone: “Oh, stop. I do everything little. Like this, you know, and I make fine lines and make everything very accurate.” Arnold: “He says, 'Arnold, you got to be more daring. Got to open up a little bit.' So I go up to his house and he has this big paintbrush with 15 kind of different colors. Goes in there like this and he starts smacking it down on the canvas.” Arnold: “And I said to myself, 'Can you believe the balls this guy has? He just makes a commitment with all this paint.' And then all of a sudden in no time he creates this really colorful unbelievable kind of modern type of a painting.” Arnold: “These big paintings go like sometimes for several hundred thousand dollars.”
