Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)

Ten years after the events of the original, a reprogrammed T-800 is sent back in time to protect young John Connor from the shape-shifting T-1000. Together with his mother Sarah, he fights to stop Skynet from triggering a nuclear apocalypse.

In Terminator 2: Judgment Day, consciousness is carried by machines — a plane of “machine-war future”. The story fights on E9/E10 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing technology, control, mortality, fear, power.
