My only real complaint is the wimp they got to play John Connor. This is they guy that will save the world?

Actually the ephemeral existance is "sky net" is a concept at least in part borrowed from Adam's joke tongue in cheek sci-fi novels, Hithchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, etc. In the end, he describes the ultimate computer as existing in the cosmos, made up of stellar gases and such. When asked what is the answer to life, the universe and everything, it came up with the answer, "42".

LOL!

It was Arnold's cowtow to the Hollywood liberal wacko controlled movie machine which requires that no hero can actually have any kahoonas and kick some serious butt in order to save civilization. Don't you know that John C. will hug his way through the machine wars!

Sheesh! Haven't they seen Battle Star Galactica to know the horrible mistake of being nice to machines!

I've just finished downloading it from Kazaa (skuzzy hates kazaa - lol), and will watch it later on.

PS. I would not have paid to go and see it, so I don't feel bad about the free viewing.

i liked it, suprised none of you mentioned the way the woman terminator was killed. In all the other terminator films they justified how the terminator was terminated, this one i thought was a bit shoddy.

I was really surprised by the movie. I went in thinking it was going to be aufull. and was surprisingly good.
Loved watching the robots destroy mankind:D

I've just started the movie part way in - to check on the .AVI file quality - looks good. I came in at the scene where there's a black kid playing baseball, and he collapses and has to be helped... will watch the whole thing later.

I greatly enjoyed T2, never saw T1.

not a bad movie, but not as good as the first or the second.
IMO the first was the best of the series. Really scary.

I have it on DVD for who ever really loved it.

I stoped watching at the car chase. The idea of a robot controling cars stoped me right there. I understand everything electric, like remote starting the car, but turning the wheel, it's still mechanical.

Matrix2, it was cripling the caddy with bullets and none got injured.

I guess I'm getting too old to watch those "fabricated high sensation" movies, and reverted to a more "realistic" feel for action.

Not great, but still very good in my book.

Love to see the overall plot of the terminator movies unfolding. I can't wait for the sequels (4,5,6,7,8....) just to get more of the story.
