The Terminator - 8/10
Terminator 2: Judgment Day - 7/10
I know it's a great action movie and one of the best sequels of all time, but while I love the imagery (and am still waiting on a 1/4 T1 Arnold from Hot Toys), I can't emotionally connect to this franchise as much as others. T2 is a marvel to look at, I just don't feel anything beyond basic visual stimulation when watching. It would be an 8 otherwise.
T1 is slightly better in this regard, which leads me to believe my issue with T2 could be due to Furlong's acting or Cameron's tendency to crowd-please. T1 also has the better atmosphere IMO.
