I liked how T2 succeeded at points to be quite philosophical (in a very
scifi'ish manner), but without sounding cheesy.
"Watching John with the machine, it was suddenly so clear. The
terminator wouldn't stop, it would never leave him. It would never
hurt him or shout at him or get drunk and hit him or say it was too
busy to spend time with him. And it would die to protect him. Of all
the would-be fathers that came over the years, this thing, this
machine, was the only thing that measured up. In an insane world, it
was the sanest choice."
(I think that's one point which would be hard to express in a non-scifi
story.)
