But don't get me wrong I love T2.... the original has more heart.
Why didn't James Cameron keep making films like this?

you said blade runner. every time i see that movie i say "what...?"

Training Day, Man On Fire [2004], Boyz N The Hood, Dead Presidents, Menace II Society, Baby Boy, Deep Blue Sea, Independance Day, Men In Black, and Jurassic Park.

Probably forgetting a lot, but oh well.

Edit: I forgot about "Blade". The whole trilogy deserves to be mentioned as well as "Juice", "White Men Can't Jump", "Ray", "Cry Baby", "Requiem For A Dream", "Lethal Weapon 4", and "American History X". I know that's much more than 10 but really anyone of these can be #1 at any given time.

How you guys manage to decide all this is beyond me. I'd never be able to construct an acurate top 10 list.
