Stallone will always be the King of action movies. Arnold gets a ton of props from me too, but Stallone is the total package in terms of action stars.

Great list! I don't know HOW I forgot about The Raid: Redemption. That movie is an AWESOME action flick. Some fight scenes are mind blowing!
These I consider true action movies that don't necessarily cross too far into other genres (ok maybe The Matrix). Other movies that go into other genres (like westerns, science fiction and superhero movies) don't really count for me, I like my action old school.
The Matrix has been mentioned a few times but havent seen Equilibrium at all, I think this is one the most underappreciated action flicks out there. Some amazing fight scenes (with no CGI), even invented its own martial art!
Terminator 2 is my favorite action movie of all time but out of the more recent movies I gotta say Steven Seagal's Deadly Crossing is the most like the "old-school" style of action movies I grew up on. Maybe it was because I wasn't expecting much but this movie kicked ass in so many ways.
The entire Dark Knight trilogy, hands down. And while most would disagree, my favorite of the trilogy is The Dark Knight Rises.
Some other favorites of mine are Death Race, The Avengers, The Transporter, Kung Fu Hustle, Sin City, Desperado, and Die Hard - to name a few.
By the way, how do you post pictures in your comments? I tried adding html to this one, but it didn't work.
