Just my two cents on the T1 vs. T2 debate.
I love both movies but if someone was pointing a gun at my head and asked me to pick one then I would say T1.
I must also say that the T1 T-800 is the most intimidating character in any Terminator movie with the T-1000 being second. The T-800 stalking Sarah and Reese in the car park with the burned off eyebrows really bugged me out as a kid.
I would say that because T2 was a big budget movie then it lost a little bit of the feeling from the first movie, those ****ty effects in T1 I feel have actually contributed to its age and you really get a grim, ****ty LA from T1.
Also there is a definite horror feeling with T1 that you don't quite get in T2. Sarah and Reese being stalked by a killer cyborg with no weapons to combat it. Even as advanced as the T-1000 was in T2 Sarah and John still had their own T-800 to help them out.
T1 managed to capture a certain feel to it that T2 did not and maybe a small part of that was because most of the original Terminator was in the night time another 'horror' element.
