Analysis of Movie: Terminator 2: Judgement Day

The movie Terminator 2 is a futuristic science fiction picture that consists of a woman, Sarah Connor, trying to protect her son, John, who will one day save the world. This movie is embedded with many references to nature and culture. The nature and culture relation is contained in the essay, "Oppressive dichotomies: the nature/culture debate" by Penelope Brown and Ludmilla Jordanova. The film Terminator 2 illustrates the ideas of Brown and Jordanova by showing this woman - Sarah Connor - as possessing the traits of nature (nurturing) and also possessing the traits of culture (logic, rationality, and independence). This movie, however, portrays a different set of binary oppositions than Brown and Jordanova do. Because Sarah Connor is both nature and culture, the opposition is not between these two traits. Instead, it is between this combination of nature and culture and the technology trying to destroy them.

John Connor's mother, Sarah Connor, is in Pescadero mental hospital for her attempt to blow up a computer factory and her radical ideas about the end of the world, but she eventually escapes and meets up with the terminator and her son. They then are on a mission to eliminate everything which might pose a threat to mankind, such as the factory where future terminators will come from, and kill the T-1000 model to save the world. This movie contains a conflict between the terminator played by Arnold Schwarzenegger and the T-1000 model terminator. The movie ends with both terminators being eliminated, the T-1000 being killed(terminated) by the terminator and the terminator orders Sarah to terminate him for the good of the planet. Although this movie is meant for entertainment, it als...
