I never saw Terminator 2

I am the one American male who has never seen Terminator 2.

It all started when the movie first came out and for whatever reason I didn't see it initially. One by one all my friends saw it and were like, hey, did you see Terminator 2? And I was like...yeah! It was great! I'll be back!

And then they'd remind me that was in the first Terminator. And I was like, duh, I was just testing you because there's a lot of kids out here on the playground that are pretending they saw it but totally didn't. I meant pasta la vista baby! Let's play seesaw!

I managed to live the lie through my teen years and through early adulthood by faking my way through most conversations related to Terminator 2. When someone at a dinner party would broach the subject of Terminator 2 I would politely nod, agree that it was indeed a kick ass film, but state quite clearly that I feel Arnold's work in this film was shallow and pedantic. Shallow and pedantic.

I feel at this point I've masted the basic plot points of Terminator 2. Basically Arnold Schwarzenegger is some kind of future robot from the future named Terminator 2. It's his job to terminate everyone. Later he decides to not terminate Guns and Roses, which was somewhat of a predictable plot twist.

In 2003 there was a third Terminator movie called Terminator 3 and I totally saw that one. I am back!
