What movie would you make?

I understand how Arnold carried it. I understand all of that. The endoskeleton. However, If I were to remake it I would focus on trying to get Kyle Reese right. Ultimately, I believe that character would have to be played by an amazing actor. HOWEVER, notice that most of what is iconic about the terminator is not Arnold, but the endo. At least IMO. I like the idea of a sly more sophisticated terminator (i.e. robert patrick)

I guess something more in-line with the very first drafts of T1
 
I think Arnold pulled it off quite well. I think his personality made the terminator what it was. If played by anyone else, it wouldn't have had the effect or rawness that Arnold brought to the part. If played by a lesser actor, I don't feel that the film would have lasted as long as it has. It's definitely one of the best films made in my opinion. It just kind of came out of nowhere and really kicked you in the ass.

That being said, I think Biehn's (Reese's) character was played well. If there were a better actor, it might have been better, true... but I think he did a good job at the part.
 
C'mon henrikson wouldn't be good as a terminator?

I agree with the two of you on everything your saying, but in terms of a remake. I think I'd be doing it alot different. hmm yeah.
 
Man, Henrikson was so brilliantly cast as the cop who got no respect...

He's a great actor. He did a really good job as Bishop in Aliens. I think he's very underrated as an actor.

But I see where you're coming from...
