A waste opportunity: The title for the movie should be TerminatorS.


It's genius to name AlienS for Alien 2.

Why James Cameron didn't name TerminatorS for Terminator 2?

reply

yes but there are only two terminators in this one, unlike Alien 2 where there are numerous Aliens.

hence
Terminator "2"

Because Cameron supposedly wanted audiences to think that Robert Patrick was a human and the good guy of the film, akin to Kyle in the first. Then the trailer kind of spoiled that.

honestly, the problem is that this film isn't Judgement Day. Judgement Day was supposed to be the day the nukes dropped on the planet and wiped out 3 billion people or whatever. this instalment isn't anything to do with that, it's just the next phase of Skynet trying to wipe out JC

but at the time, it was a long awaited sequel. so the title Judgement Day was quite cool. and that's about it
