Terminator 2: Judgement Day is the single greatest Hollywood blockbuster of all time. I don't care about box office receipts or any other criteria other than the fact that this is the most beautifully-paced and spectacular action movie I've ever seen. I've been watching it on repeat ever since my dad brought home the VHS tape way back in the early '90s, and it's one of those films that is so thrilling and packed with detail that it will never get old. It's terrifically sad they never made another Terminator movie after this, but what're you going to do.
At the time there were several game tie-ins, and I particularly remember the Game Boy one, mainly because it featured the Arnie/John bike scene and had an amazing animation for aiming the shotgun backwards or forwards. But my fondest memories of a Terminator game is the 2D adaptation of the original movie for the Sega Mega Drive (Genesis in America), which went all-out trying to recreate the grimy and gory aesthetic while being a great 2D shooter that stayed as faithful as it could to the film's major beats.
