IMO Terminator 2 is One of the greatest Action Movies ever Made

Terminator 1 is IMO The 2nd best overall film in The Franchise, But I enjoy watching Rise of The Machines and Salvation more

Terminator Genisys was a Epic failure, Just A Total Creative Failure....IMO The idea never should have gotten based the "What If" stage....But if they were dead set on making this film and doing A Reboot like "Star Wars 2009"....IMO The only possible way it could have Maybe worked was you needed to get A Great Director....Instead they got an awful Director in Allen Taylor

Terminator should be held up as an example of why not every movie needs to be, nor should be, a franchise. Sometimes, a good movie needs to be nothing more than a good movie. It doesn't need to be some 8 part franchise.

The Terminator was a good movie. T2 was better for the most part (Except where they completely changed the character of Sarah Conner. They might as well have gotten a new actress because the character was completely different). But after T2 the franchise fell off a steep cliff into a garbage dump.

• "Terminator 2: Judgement Day" (1991) - 10/10 - Impressive SFX. James Cameron definitely paved the way for future technology in the film industry.

• "The Terminator" (1984) - 10/10 - Has a great story, possibly one of the best I've ever seen.

• "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines" (2003) - 9/10 - This film receives too much hate. Yeah, the jokes were corny and they could have hired better actors for John and Kate, but the crane scene and the ending was epic. Plus, Arnold was in his prime.

• "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" (2008 - 2009) - 9/10 - I liked how they went more in-depth regarding Sarah's backstory. I sure do miss this show.

• "Terminator Genisys" (2015) - 5/10 - Didn't care for Emilia Clarke as Sarah and Jai Courtney as Kyle. At least this one had Arnold.

• "Terminator Salvation" (2009) - 1/10 - Hated it. I don't even consider it part of the "Terminator" franchise.
