I hope this is a joke. I liked T2 as much as the next guy, but Arnold certainly didn't give an Oscar-worthy performance.


Now, if you want to talk about something like Memento, I'd say that Guy Pearce should have gotten a nod for Best Actor or the movie should have gotten Best Picture.

What's it like to be totally owned? Terminator 2 was released in 1991, therefore the awards it was eligible for were presented NEXT YEAR at the 1992 Academy Awards.

Scroll down the page, Terminator 2 was nominated for 6 awards and won 4. Get a clue next time.
