With their third pick, TEAM Wishwedidaprondraft is very happy to select a personal favorite, a movie that our commis has seen more than any other movie, a whopping 136 times and counting. The James Cameron epic,
TERMINATOR 2:JUDGEMENT DAY. This will be our science fiction choice.
Cameron revolutionized visual effecs with the T-1000 in T2, winning Oscars in sound and visual effects. The story is simple, but at the same time very interesting. A post-nuclear war machine is set back thru time disguised as a police officer to kill the leader of the human resistance while he was still a child. The humans(namely John Connor himself) was able to send a re-programmed Terminator to protext John. What happens is maybe the best 2.5 hours of cat and mouse every seen in a movie. with solid performances by Arnold, Linda Hamilton, Robert Patrick and a surprsing debut for Edward Furlong, Terminator 2 set the bar for science fiction action movies and has been duplicated, but never matched.
Here's a couple of the many visually stunnig chase sequences:
Sarah's escape from the mental hospital, GREAT VISUAL EFFECTS
The T-100 malfunctions is the final battle
HASTA LA VISTA BABY
God, there are so many more parts that I want to put on this, but there really isn't enough room, but TERMINATOR 2: Judgement Day will forever be known as on the best sci-fi action movies ever made.
