I am so pleased that other people have mentioned T2!

It is soooooo well made. You could release that film today and it would still rock.
 
It's amazing that the ending of T2 still manages to make me a little teary-eyed even after seeing it at least 15 times.
 
The bit where Arnie "turns back on" and pulls out the pole is great! Then he rolls over that roller just time! Dun-dun-dun...dun-dun!
