How many Academy Awards did Terminator 2: Judgment Day win?
When Terminator 2: Judgment Day burst onto the scene in 1991, it didn't just walk through walls — it blew them up, set them on fire, and then rode off on a motorcycle for good measure.
This wasn't your average Sunday matinee sequel; it was a full-throttle, metal-crunching spectacle that pushed the boundaries of what action films could achieve. Directed by the ever-daring James Cameron, T2 not only brought us the softer side of Arnold Schwarzenegger's T-800 but also revolutionized special effects with enough CGI to make your VCR rewind itself in disbelief.
Amidst all the explosive action and one-liners fit for a king — or at least a governor — T2 also took a time-travel trip to the Oscars. While most action movies don’t get much recognition by the fancy “academy,” this one was so damn good it couldn’t be ignored.
