Same. But 4 years younger and I didn't cry.
It's a perfect movie. I'm glad nobody has ever attempted to make a sequel. You just can't top T2.

Facial recognition software has been around for years. People post and upload their selfies on apps every day. They willingly give DNA to companies. Tracking devices are in everyone's pockets.
People really walked into what science fiction has been warning us all about for decades. I'm guilty of the last thing.

worse our dead cells drop everywhere in our urine feces blood even dust itself is made off of fallen epidermal cells. Right software and you can decode underwear free appearance and even make clones of voices or bodies.
I've heard there are cameras that can even see through masks, imagine through clothes won't be scifi either in today's metamaterial world. I remember when My physics teacher repeatedly told we'd know something gone wrong when we had negative refraction index in a material, yet metamaterials essentially violated physics allowing for harry potter cloaks super resolution and all manner of weird shizzat.
With a year book and a few minutes video, you basically own any ex forever in any position with AI.

Perfect movie, I rewatched it recently on prime video, very well paced with no exaggerated set piece/action scenes like today movies.

The benifits of mostly working with practical and in camera effects.

I first saw this as a kid growing up in Israel, I remember my cousins had this massive laser disk collection with an amazing set up, latest TV, great home cinema sound system in their basement, the works, and my ten year old self went through this incredible movie collection. Among them being The Die Hard Films, Pulp Fiction, From Dusk Till Dawn and of course, T2.
All of those movies had some sort of impact on me, and T2 just broke my heart but man did I absolutely love it.
One thing is for sure, they don't make films like those anymore. Something in Hollywood got lost over the years. But I'm glad I had that experience and I'll always be shaped by them.

Amazing movie, great universe. Too bad no sequel has been a worthy follow up. I also think this is Arnold's best acting (which is not saying much).
I remember watching the kids hacking the ATM and then going to the arcades, it influenced the career I chose. This movie also got me hooked on time traveling stories. There are so many things worthy of praise...

Saving Private Ryan is only 7 years older than T2.
I remember seeing it in the theater like it was yesterday.

I don't think any game or movie has united gaf as much as T2.
Never forget, T2 was SAVAGED for being a watered down, "kinder, gentler" woke mess. By Rolling Stone no less! My, how times change

Terminator 2: Judgment Day
A kinder, gentler terminator. What an affront. In 1984, director-writer James Cameron gave Arnold Schwarzenegger the role of his career, as a killer cyborg sent from the future to murder Sarah Conn…

Still waiting for Terminator 3.
Time for James Cameron to push the deep fakes frontier, featuring the same cast but de-aged thanks to the miracles of technology.
While we’re at it, bring on Aliens 3 by James Cameron as well.
