unforgiven in the same category as T2? wtf are you trying to do to me???????
"If you hold back anything, I'll kill ya. If you bend the truth or I think you're bending the truth, I'll kill ya. If you forget anything I'll kill ya. In fact, you're gonna have to work very hard to stay alive, Nick. Now do you understand everything I've said? Because if you don't, I'll kill ya." - Rory Breaker
they are both rather nice, although by no means great. I voted LS&TSB because the director made at least some attempt at making a movie

I disagree with you there, Jean. T2 is the very defintion of Great. It is a Sci-Fi movie (one of the must influential of all time, I might add) , with effects that were very advanced for it's time and are still impressive even by todays standards, and to top it all off - it has family values at it's core. The fact that it has been referenced, parodied, and homaged in pop culture numerous times does give some hint as to just how powerful the film is and why it's withstood the test of time.
I am afraid I understand "film" a little differently... effects only bore me, and fuss (aka action) actually put me to sleep... I fully understand, of course, that what I call "film" is deadly boring for most, if not all, my friends here (I tried to nominate some, but nobody ever seem to watch such things), so we're even.
I liked T2, though, - at least, better than T1 or especially T3 - as some benign entertainment I do not regret having had, but could just as well have done without.

maybe a certain bear needs to snuggle up with a true Terminator fan to really appreciate the movie!
*hopes he picks me*
Buddy, you think you look strong? You’re wearing a cape.

::tighter... TIGHTER!!!::
... well, those roses he walked on... and the way he shouted "Down!"... and the poor desperate Sarah trying to save the world...
::SNUGGLES::
...and, of course, the little boy who made the bullet hit something other than his dad... and especially the dialog when the boy tries to explain why it is wrong to kill people... And how Terminator notes "ZERO KILLED", so proud of himself... and the end, of course, with the thumb up...
::SNUGGLES::
bearpurrr.... purrrrr... PURRRRRRRRRRRR...

you gotta like the whole apocalypse aspect tho! yes?
Buddy, you think you look strong? You’re wearing a cape.
no, I like only the humane aspect... I've watched/read too many utopias/dystopias, - and lived through some - to really appreciate them unless they are something very special

"I know now why you cry, but it's something I could never do."
*sniffle*
and just to make it even worse, i'm going "unforgiven". now that movie is a fucking classic. and i don't even like westerns. but come on. it's fucking clint eastwood man.
Will: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
Will: We all got it coming, kid.
Little Bill: You just shot an unarmed man.
Will: He should have armed himself if he's gonna decorate his saloon with my friend.
alas, I literally fell asleep when tried to watch Unforgiven... it was the first time in my life that I did, I think - about fifteen years ago... that's when all those non-hibernating years began to tell...
