I feel like Scott's films have aged much better than Cameron's. I'm more familiar with the latter's body of work, though.
IMO, Terminator 2: Judgment Day is the finest action film to ever grace a screen. So I'm obviously in disagreement with this assessment. And the original Terminator isn't too shabby either.
But Aliens is pretty freaking sweet, too. Just not quite as good as T2, in my book.

Ugh. I'm glad Edward Furlong took an acting class or three before doing American History X. I want someone to "Garfield Without Garfield" John Connor out of that whole movie.

The movie is like ten times better than the game though. I've been re-watching Scott Pilgrim again recently and it's still just as much fun as the first time I saw it. The existence of that movie makes this world a better place.
Anyway, I just recently watched Super 8. Good movie, though the ending somehow felt unsatisfying to me. I guess I expected something more or just something different. It's not the best movie I've seen from J. J. Abrams, but I liked it. I can't help but compare it to Attack the Block though. Both movies with a bunch of kids dealing with an alien encounter, Attack the Block is like ten times better though and probably wasn't nearly as successful. I'd recommend both movies though when all is said and done

It was cute. Some beautiful shots of the rainforest, and the apes are adorable. Unfortunately, not much to learn from this film (besides from the ending credits) as it's not an educational film, but a story about one of apes.
CHIMP is narrated by Tim Allen, who does an okay job, but sounds as if he's reading on a second grade level. He only makes one Home Improvement reference, and grunts only twice.
But I love apes, so I enjoyed the movie. I even brought banana chips into the theater so I could fit in.

That's not your own opinion, buddy. That's fact. Make damn sure of it!
I only own two Blu Ray movies, and they're both Terminator 2.
Took ya long enough, bud! It really is a spectacular film; I saw it three times in the theater and about the Blu-ray on release day!
