Off topic, but you've triggered a long suppressed pet peeve of mine regarding the Terminator series. In movie 1 Arnold played the villain. In movie two he inexplicably flipped to playing the hero. That made no sense. I expect plot continuity.
It made sense in terms of box office receipts, I'll admit
In real life Trumps gets to play villain and hero simultaneously, depending on whether you enter the theater through the left door or the right door.

With all due respect, I think that's a really stupid take. There's no "Arnold" here... the T800's are made in factories and they ALL look like him once they're finished
It took me years before I realized that I somehow lucked out and saw the Director's Cut in theatres. The movie opened two weeks earlier than the rest of the world in Calgary and I ended up at one of the audience screenings. Had to fill out a survey afterwards.
Oh but there is an Arnold. Under the real-world considerations of box office receipts, what the producers allowed was continuity of A-list star power to override continuity of hero/villain character assignment. They broke a writer's pillar of world-building in science fiction. You don't see the Borg from Star Trek switching sides from one season to the next.
That in movie 2 the Terminator who traveled back in time was just another T800 that had been programmed differently was their "out". Accept it, suspend disbelief, and enjoy the show. Yet from the perspective of a fiction writer they committed a violation of good storytelling.
If the "out" were applied consistently there would have been no liquid silver metal dude. Just a bunch of T800s fighting it out.
You think you’re blocking the strait of Hormuz? Uno reverse. Now we’re the ones blocking it!
I'm trying to find this GIF
