My favorite scene was when the guy was asking if he had a dead cat, when his skin was rotting off. I liked how it showed the different responses he could say and I cracked up at the response he chose.

My favorite scene was in terminator 2 with the terminator who turns into liquid metal and takes the form of any person he wants.

My favorite line is "I'll be back". In my mind Arnie will always be famous for that line

He is such an interesting character with lots of potentials, but I don't feel like they used him well enough.

Have you guys seen the trailer that was released for the new movie, Terminator: Dark Fate, with both Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton? Not sure how I feel about another movie but I am excited to see them both reprise their roles.

Still slaying audiences with as much dramatic precision and visual panache as it did 30 years ago, this classic piece of sci-fi-horror reveals to filmgoers from frame one why it's one of the most influential flicks of the last century.

I prefer the first movies. Arnold was a beast.

There are many examples of memorable scenes from the movie Terminator. I watched it many years ago and didn't get the chance to rewatch it, but yes were some scenes still close to my heart! For instance, in Terminator 1 when the villain turned into metal, I was so much amazed at that time! The bullet crossed right through his face (I vaguely remember) and there he was, standing as if nothing happened! The other one was the intense motorcycle chase involving the T-800 and the T-1000. It was truly a standout action sequence in the second part of the film.

After watching Arnold's recent documentary, his admission that he thought this movie might end up as a B-grade production, only to see it become a blockbuster, really caught me off guard. The iconic entry scene, where he takes a bike and a leather jacket from people, ignited my interest in the Terminator series.

Yes that was so cool back in the 90s and my favorite part is how they figured out they could stop him by using liquid nitrogen :D :mrgreen: :mrgreen2:

Ive just had a thought about the Terminator movies. Isnt it ironic that way back then they predicted that machines would try to take over the world... just a thought
