***MINOR SPOILERS***
What always gets me about movies like this, involving time continuity, is that people are always pointing out what seem to be continuity errors. I have one question for these people: Have you ever traveled through time? If not, how do you know what constitutes a continuity error? I ask this because several people wonder how everything could have happened since the inventor (Dyson), computer factory, chip, and arm were destroyed in the second film. Well, there are 2 things to look at here. First of all, if you remember, Arnold loses an arm in a steel combine towards the end of T2. So, there is a remnant of the Terminator technology left behind. Even though it might be smashed, who's to say that with new technology the pieces could not be studied and replicated? That is somewhat of a weak idea though. The second thing to consider is, Dyson was not the ONLY person alive who could have created the things. Someone else could have followed in his footsteps or could have had his or her own idea of the terminator concept and technology. Just because the 2 movies have a fence built around them, does not mean other possibilities do not exist.
All of this being said, regardless of what might be flaws in the movie, T2 is still my favorite movie. It set a high standard for both action/sci-fi flicks and special effects. Even to this day, the special effects are stellar. Even though Jim Cameron is not at the helm, I eagerly await the release of T3: Rise of the Machines.
