Did you how primitive his understanding of humans was? And how all the newer models look different? Almost as if the robots eventually figured out they were revealing themselves by using the same skin... I mean this is basically the whole reason for the T1000.... --- End quote --- My point was in the original... not all the T-800s where Arnold. It was only after when Arnold became a star now every stupid infiltration unit looks like Arnold. I just hate that. --- End quote --- You're not seeing the big picture. Just because Skynet do a run of Arnie-terminators doesn't mean that they can't also do runs of Franco-terminators and Sam Worthington terminators and whatever other "models" they might have had handy. Must take a lot of investment to pull-off an Arnie skin job, would be such a waste to do just one of them. Just because the humans recognise Arnie one time doesn't mean that model is now useless. There would've been many different human bases/hideouts for them to infiltrate before the Arnie's became well-known. The terminator could even use a disguise! Disfigure itself so-as to be unrecognisable. So many options. None of this is inconsistent with Reece's monologue about them infiltrating. --- End quote --- Big picture is I don't want to see Arnold in every Terminator. I like the movies for the Story line. Now it is all about Arnold. |

I like T1 better than T2. There I said it. |

Using special effects as an argument that T2 is better is like saying every modern game is superior to the classic arcade games, just because they have better graphics. We all know its not true, its the game play behind many of them. Same with T2. I'm not saying it's not a wonderful movie, but T1 is so much darker, has so much more punch to it. "Deliciously" violent and so much more intimate. You know what was happening it would be somewhere in the shadows, for everyone to be unaware what's at stake. |

And I will add that I didn't care for the T-800 versus T-1000. Who cares? It was like watching Captain Jack Sparrow zombified sword fighting Captain Barbossa who was also zombified. There was far more fear in the fight between T-800 and Kyle Reese, a real life or death battle. |

I don't think T1 is very good, it is like the Atari or original Star Trek, thanks for creating some of the characters and concepts but it is dated and I don't want to go back to it. T2 is kind of a masterpiece and why we are still talking about it today. |
