![]() It was made famous in the 1984 science fiction film The Terminator. ![]() " I'll be back" is a catchphrase associated with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Oh, and the epic one-liners like "Hasta La Vista, Baby" helped a lot too to create one of Arnold's best roles.Voted No. The film allowed for audiences to see Arnold's brutal villain in a new light, allowing for him to try and connect with humanity, be human, and in the end, give a heart-wrenching sacrifice to defend those he cared about in one of the '90s action films best endings. Instead of keeping the T-800 as a brutal killing machine, the character was made into a protector sent to guard John Conner from the equally nefarious T-1000. Not only did it offer some truly mind-blowing action scenes, some Oscar-winning visual effects that still hold up in 2020 a new story but it also provided one of the best role reversals in any film. There have only been a few movies over the years that have pulled this off and Terminator 2: Judgement Day, considered to be one of the best action movies ever made, is such a film. If there's anything better than a fantastic first film, it's a sequel that raises the bar in every possible way. From wearing star-studded sunglasses to quotes like "talk to the hand" and even a poor replica of his classic line, the T-850, although somewhat cool, was still not nearly as good as the others. While the T-850 as a whole was a decent character who went out with a literal bang thanks to a nuclear core, there was still that poor attempt at comedy that muddied his badass character.

Even after meeting his end in the previous film, Arnold returned as a flawed model T-850, sent to protect John Conner and his future wife. Terminator 3: Rise of The Machines was the capstone of such a trilogy. This was around the time when a lot of classic films that had been given just about perfect endings decided to add a third movie to create an unholy trilogy. Probably a good thing audience didn't get to see Terminator: Exodys. And yes, that was actually a planned sequel.īefore the disaster of Genisys, there was another attempt at bringing the Terminator franchise back. ![]() Reducing Arnold to a parody of himself, cracking stupid jokes and sad attempts at "being human" not to mention a half-cocked death and rebirth that really thought a sequel was on the way, this is probably one of the worst versions of the Terminator to grace the silver screen. In an attempt to recapture the same feel of Judgement Day with a sympathetic Terminator sent back to protect Sarah Conner instead of John, the film instead creates one of the saddest versions of the Terminator.

After Salvation came out, there was a lack of time traveling, cyborg assassins going through time until 2015, when not only did Arnold return t0 the role but a new film, Terminator: Genisys was released as a soft reboot to the series.
