Of course, I'll probably still buy it. I'm an idiot.

Probably already said this but I much prefer T1 to the sentimental T2.

Most of Furlong's dialogue/moments are cringy and Linda Hamilton is a bit to over-the-top at times, but I still find Arnold and the T-1000 to be a real treat in the film.

"Now I know why you cry". "In an insane world it was the sanest choice". It's just a bit overwrought at times. Furlongs dialogue is often very uncool, a bit Pepsi Max! While Hamilton's is a bit too distraught. The 80s is the decade that Irony forgot and while tecnically T2 may be from the 90s, it's from 91 and the 80s is still there in force. I submit that time has not been entirely kind to this one.

I was about 16 when I first saw T2,after having seen the original a pile of times. Went twice the first month it was out ot see it. But over the years I just gotten where I don't like it. Really wish the series had ended with the first film.

While T2 certainly has technical advances over the original, not to mention action beats, this is still the case where the first two films are a relative tie. And, with me, a Tie always goes to the original (see also LET THE RIGHT ONE IN "tying' LET ME IN

I watched the first one with the girlfriend last night because she'd never seen it. It was enjoyed. Barely into it before she was saying "so this guy from the futures going to be the kids father right?" So the story was pulling no surprises. It's just a very well made movie though. What I'd forgotten was how much of a horror movie it is. The lame robot, dragging it's leg, seemingly moving at 2km an hour, somehow gaining on our leads through the final chase is straight out of Friday the13th or the like. The very elongated final action scene where the monster comes back not once, but twice is the first of its kind that I can think of and has to be as influential as anything.

That's crazy - last night my wife and I were watching an episode of Beach Front Property Hunt and the couple on it had a son named Maxim and I said "...and their daughter, FHM."

The movies had nowhere to go after T2 lol. They put so much in SFX into that one, there was no way they were going to top that feeling of seeing it for the first time, watching Robert Patrick's melty metal body get melty before it got body again.
I didn't like 3 when I saw it, but warmed to it on a further visit.
The rest of them, outside of the one where they blow Furlong away, can suck it. And that one, only the part where they blow Furlong away.
