The T-800 from Terminator 1 is the most scariest and intimidating terminator ever. I don’t understand how the other terminator movies never reproduce the same terrifying feeling.

 
He was terrifying because you cared about Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese. Who the fuck cares about Mike Kripke, Katherine Brewster, Dani Ramos and Marcus Wright...
 
Terminator is a love story. This solider from the future wants to protect the love of his life and Sara herself wants to protect her unborn child.

It’s a beautiful flick.
 
First set of titties I ever saw were Linda Hamilton in that movie.
 
T-1000 was great too. James Cameron is why. He knows how to build tension and make them scary. I just hope he hasn't lost the touch with this new one.
 
I'm more scared of the tire at the end

than the claymation thing from T1

 
I’d fuck that claymation looking cuck up with a few sherdog uppercuts.

Its also a film that plays on the apocalyptic crime films of the 70's and early 80's, LA is shown in as not so far from the future hell Reese comes from and the Terminator isn't just as sci fi monster, he's a stand in for some mad killer/rapist from that era but with superpowers.

The recent Terminator films haven't been horror stories the way the first two are, they've become standard sci fi action. Plus of course their simply not anywhere near as well made.

The same is true for Alien and Predator, original simple atmospheric horror with some action mixed in that have lost that original attraction over time.

The best scifi films are actually horror films.

I'd agree many are but even moreso I think there films that have a very strong basic concept to them rather than films that focus on building up some kind of extended "lore" across more standard blockbuster franchises.

If they carry on any of these franchises I'd preffer they just reboot back to the original, at least they might have some potential with enough talent involved. I spose Shane Black's Predator wasn't too bad but really not much to do with the original concept.

The T-1000 was definitely awesome. However this terminator gives me nightmares.

The lore is for nerds to squabble over.

Rarely does the extended lore stack up to anything more than bullshit.
