Sarah Connor isn’t the meek woman she was in Terminator 1. In Terminator 2 she is strong and warrior-like. In the first movie, she seemed unsure of herself and her future. Although this movie takes a different turn than the first movie, because the first movie seems to typically be about being chased by the killing machine and nothing was going to slow it down. It made the movie seem foreboding and suspenseful. The second Terminator couldn’t take on the same idea as the first. The audience knows the imminent nuclear disaster haunting Sarah’s every moment. Ultra buff Sarah Connor is a fully operational warrior woman, only more so phallic mother. Her son John plays more of a father role in this movie. He teaches the T-800 (Arnold Schwarzenegger) that he can’t just kill everyone. While Sarah must be domesticated away from the mother-wolf fury in which she is enmeshed. There is evidence in the film that it helps to have a Dad around. This is evident in an overtly erotic moment in the film when having interrupted mom’s commando raid on the Dyson home, John confronts her, now collapsed in a heap, and moaning “I love you, John- I always have.” “I know,” he answers, and falls into her embrace.
