*If you have not watched the first two terminator films, I highly recommend that you do so*
**Spoilers for Terminator films below**
So I have seen The Terminator and Judgement Day.
And they are rather good films. I did see snippets of T3 also, but I have decided to neglect from watching it it's not by James Cameron, and JC said that his story ends with T2 anyway. He's got a good point.
There's a thing though. Although the thematic theme of the first film is very clear, the second film is a bit more nuanced in it's message. The first film is very much about how removing human agency is not a good thing, but the second film seems more about... hmm... Not all human agency is a good thing. Two of the characters (Sarah) cuase quite a bit of ruckus due to being motivated by fear or ambition (And fear or ambition only), whilst the much more balanced John Connor seems to argue for more... balance and nuance in the actions of both his mom and Arnie. The film is more nuanced as it argues for... more nuance. Or that's the gist I got from it anyway.
