Fake arm. a prosthetic or however you spell it. The flesh that was peeled off was actually makeup/rubber/whatever. Apply a coat of fake blood underneath, and you have your arm ripping effect! Oh, and T2 was,and is still, my favorite movie since age six, when I saw it. Nothing has beaten the terminator for me. He was my childhood idol.

Thanks beta ray howard!!!
I love all the Terminator films the same. I have a special place for T3 in my heart, because that was the only one I could go and see in the cinema (I was too young for T2 when at cinemas). I remember watching it and hardly blinking. Loved/Love it.

sorry i meant terminator 2, t3 was good but didnt quite pack the punch that t2 or t1 had,
t3 was just like every other hollywood action movie of the last few years
Didn't Diet Coke do that thing a few years ago where you could vote (from a list) what film you wanted to be released at the cinema again? I remember T2 was an option, because I voted.
Honestly, T1 was basically a sci-fi horror movie in my opinion. But T2 was a brilliant idea cooked up by James Cameron. The took something that could have been just another Jason Vorhees character, and turned him into a hero. On top of that, they made a more powerful enemy for him to fight in the T-1000.
Just came back from the cinema seeing T1 and T2 (a special thing my local cinema has done in preperation for Terminator Salvation being released tomorrow/today), and I must say although I love T2 I'm going to have to say that T1 is still a strong movie after over 20 years.
Despite my Judgement Day hate thread, I also loved this movie, and the reason I keep calling it Judgement Day and not T2 is because I feel the film should've just been called Judgement Day. It's a brilliant title that fits the movie, and actually fits it more than T2 does.
"You can't kill people."
"Why?"
"You just can't."
"Why?"
"There is one last chip to be destroyed."
"I know now, why you cry."
Great lines.
I also feel that T3 should've been made though, as it puts the previous time with T1 back, a paradox, rather than an alternate timeline where the Earth is saved.
