Both are quite different in tone so I reckon its just down to personal preference. Do you like dark gritty sci fi movies or fluffy blockbusters (not that T2 is tame but you know what I mean). I prefer T2 although I always liked Arnie more as a bad Terminator rather than a good one.

Completely agree. If Avatar was a commercial failure or if its story was based on a book people wouldn't be nearly as harsh on it. It suffered the same fate as Titanic. Both Avatar and Titanic have their flaws but they can be admired on some level that people choose to ignore just because they made billions.
