The "Terminator" series, particularly "Terminator 2: Judgment Day," blends action and thought-provoking themes about artificial intelligence. As a young Black man, it prompts reflection on the implications of technology and its impact on society.

Terminator 2 is an immortal masterpiece. Several scenes demonstrating the friendship between John Connor and the Terminator, played by Arnold, are fantastic.

All the fear of AI and seeing these humanoid robots on TV. I don't think we have time travel yet, but there are a large number of people that see Terminator as a prediction of our real future.

"I'll be back" - that just sums up the Terminator

I must say Arnold ate the terminator role.
My favourite scene was when he came back after being destroyed. I don't even know how to explain it.

Of course. The memorable part for me was when they took shelter from the nuclear fallout and realized it was too late to change everything. That was really touching, and what's even more interesting is when I found out there's a sequel to this movie.

It was terrible. The idea was good, and some of the characters were okay, with some good moments, but everything else is just disappointing.
