Most people who were of movie going age when the third one came out. Would you go back and watch the first two if your first exposure to the series was Rise of the Machines?

That's actually exactly what happened to me lmao.

First terminator I watched was 3 and it made me want to watch the rest because I like it so much.

how do you feel about rise of the machines after seeing judgement day?

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

I mean it's been a while since I've seen either and while I definitely remember judgement day being better they were both cool in their own ways.

Arnold walking out of the crypt with the coffin full of guns and ammo while letting loose with the lmg will always be cool.

I'd say 3 was the tipping point where it still managed to grab some new fans, despite being the worst of the first 3.

The films that followed though, I get why no one was getting hooked in
