    I love Terminator 2 the most. Robert Patrick is amazing and I cried my eyes out at the end, as did my Robert Patrick look-alike uncle! For the time (1992) it was well done cause when Robert Patrick is chasing Edward Furlong one of his legs is computer animated as he damaged one of his legs! I didnt notice till my boyfriend told me afew years ago.

    Best music, best action, best lines and had the best actors. I didnt like the first and I hate the third. Seen it on the opening night and loads of people were slating it. Who knows what the fourth installment will be like.

    I have love for all three Terminator movies. The third one gets a load of gyp, probably because it was made so long after the second film and without James Cameroon, but it is a above-average action movie, (SPOILER)and the ending where the world ending is so unconventional and unexpected.

    Terminator 3 is great and is my favorite. It fits the pace at which I like movies to run at. I also like how it is a big contrast to the 2nd movie about fate and how things play out. It is a good sequel to a great sequel.

    I don't think T3 was necessary. Wasn't great. T2 was the best one.

    I liked Terminator 3 as a movie where you could kick back, relax, turn your brain off for a couple of hours and enjoy. Nothing tops T2, though.

    Arnies best work, T1 was great, T2 was overly great, and T3 was good. I just have to make sure to bring my pack of tissues for the end of T2.

    I can't decide which is the best, Terminator 1 or 2? The third one is out of the question.

    Terminator 1 was classic because it was one of the few films where the heroes spend the whole time on the run from the bad guy. That, and 'Nice day for a walk!'

    (SPOILER)Sarah Connor is a regular Joe living her life not knowing that she is the future mother of the resistance that will inevitably save humanity. A Terminator (T-800) is sent back by Skynet, the machine's in the future, to kill Sarah Connor before John Connor is born. Thus it starts systematically killing every Sarah Connor in the area alphabetically. But the resistances sends back Kyle Reese, a soldier from the future, to protect Sarah. He manages to find her just as the Terminator does, and the two go on the lam, but are eventually caught by the police. Kyle explains under interrogation that humanity had already won the war in the future, and that the Terminators mission was one of desperation by the machines. The Terminator tracks them to the police station and kills every single cop there trying to find and kill Sarah, but her and Kyle escape. Whilst on the run it becomes clear that Kyle is actually John's father, and he was hand-selected by John because of his emotional attachment to Sarah. Thusly they do the do and John is "in the oven". Again the Terminator finds them and chases them to a factory where Kyle is killed in an explosion, only to have the Terminator follow Sarah through a pneumatic press and be crashed by her. Sarah then decides to isolate herself from society to keep John safe. The Terminator wreckage at the factory is inevitably found which leads to the events in T2.
