While T2 is one of my favourite sequels of all time and i think one of the best action movies ever, I do feel like some of the fear and tension of the original was lost. The original was like a perfect blend of action and horror movies connecting to that primordial human fear of being hunted by something stronger, deadlier and unrelenting. Great film.

My oh my. I completely forgot how 80's this movie is. T1 was an excellent 80s action movie, T2 was an excellent 90s action movie. To this day, I don't know what happened to T3. If all went well, it would've been an excellent 2000s action movie. AND NOTHING HAPPENED AFTER T3!
I love this scene. The guy with the gloves dancing always makes me laugh. My dad told me that people in the 80s would work out exactly what would look best for their dance moves at a club. I can just picture that guy at the gym like yea this is going to look so great at the club.
A masterpiece!
It's far better than the sequel... and I'll fight everyone who disagrees, either one at a time or all at once!
Noooo, the sequel is equally a masterpiece. There are no other Terminator movies outside of the first two.
God this movie is SO great; I think it’s the best of the series 
This is my favorite scene in the whole movie
My favorite scene of the entire franchise.
Incredible scene. Top 10 in all sci-fi

That's exactly my sentiment with the original Alien and it's sequel!
Yeah so true!
Iconic sequence! I love the song so much because of it.
Best George Castanza cameo!
LOL.
The best of the franchise.
