      After a questionable start in movies in the 70's, I doubt anyone expected to see the name Schwarzenegger anywhere near main-stream movies. And now look at him? We can even spell his name!
     Terminator 2: Judgment Day was one of those flicks that really tore onto the screen. With some amazing special effects and an intense plot, moviegoers really flocked to the theatres. And I was thrilled with it from the start -- I believe I saw it twice in the first few weeks of its release. Watching it again on video, I realize that it's a bit pretentious, but it's still entertaining. And the great thing about this sequel is that you don't have to watch the first one to understand what's going on. In fact, I didn't see the original movie until a few years after T2 came out. And I'd have to say that while the original is interesting, the sequel is thrilling.
