Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as an inversion of his iconic role from the first film, the Terminator was ranked by AFI among cinema’s greatest screen heroes – its previous incarnation from the earlier film having also landed on the Institute’s list of “heroes & villains,” albeit on the other side. The inexorable machine – taught the nuances of human behavior by Edward Furlong’s teenaged John Connor in the film – also earned a place on AFI’s greatest movie quotes with his climactic “Hasta la vista, baby.” Cameron’s science-fiction masterpiece was executive produced by AFI Trustee Emeritus Gale Anne Hurd.
