did they remake it?
as i type this i know the answer is "yes", but it must have been really loving lovely and generic because i can't remember a single thing about it - no posters, promos, none of the cast, nothing. I bet it was only a year or two agao as well.

Its truly amazing how a steroid-ridden foreigner who can barely speak English really made some truly classic action movies. Compare him to a chump like Stallone or Snipes.

Cameron was originally going to cast Arnold as a hero but then realized he was going to be a better fit as the terminator.
