        Technically that’s Sarah Connor after T1 by a year or two.

      T2 is 34 years old, I remember reading about it in a paper magazine, when James Cameron said that the molten T1000 should say “Get out” to the helicopter pilot and how the CGI artists were stumped on how to make it happen.

      There’s something like 2-5 minutes of CGI in T2 and that was unheard of back in 1991.

      For anybody not old enough to have seen that movie, go see Terminator, and then Terminator 2, and then stop.

      You are missing out.

        The TV series from the mid-2000s was actually pretty decent, but it was canceled like 2 seasons in and never finished its story.

        But yeah, T2 isn’t gonna be topped. I think it is a strong contender for best action film of all time.

        go see Terminator, and then Terminator 2

        Honestly, you can skip the first one. Special effects just weren’t ready for what Cameron was trying to put down.

          Yeah, I’ll have to disagree here.

          Yes, the effects are bad to the point they are funny to watch now. But it doesn’t detract much from the movie.

      Idk, man. Aldoran was a smoking hole in space 14 years before Sarah Connor got nuked, and everyone remembers that one.

      To give you an idea of my age, I’m still young enough to get drafted to the US military. I watched T2 when I was a teen, like about 10 years ago, give or take. That movie is one of my favorites. It doesn’t feel that old from my PoV.

      I’ve seen the movie, but still didn’t recognize it.
