Elin and The Yeti watch the classics.. sort of: #4

Movies: Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day
Status: Neither of us have seen the first one. Elin's watched the second one once (in like 1998).
Favorite scenes: Any scene with Arnold, really. 
Times we pause them: Maybe 5 in total - mostly to discuss the time travel aspect..

These movies have great entertainment value and are both very well paced! But they are also very confusing - at least to us. After a few discussion breaks about the weirdness of it all, we decide to just roll with whatever it is that we don't understand. And so when the T-1000 (in the second film) turns into some sort of gecko-floor-robot, we just go with it. When he turns into a big metal blob? Again - we go with it (and then jokingly refer to him as "the blob" for the rest of the movie).   

I really liked the first film, mostly for the insta-love (you know - when someone loves "a lifetime's worth" in just a few hours? I'm a sucker for that) and Julia was definitely a bigger fan of the second one. I have to agree with her overall though because I think Arnold makes for a much better hero than villain and Edward Furlong is fantastic.

Here's proof of: 1) Julia's allusiveness (she's hereby renamed "The Yeti") 2) Our first real heat wave this summer (Yaay! Shorts!) and 3) The fact that we've been really responsible and watched the movies at night when you can't be outside anyways (because of about one million mosquitoes).
