(i actually call it an action-comedy)  then kai lord actually LISTED them for you. and you still say that theyre all supposed to be SERIOUS?when arnold starts t2 by walking into a dive bar, getting ogled by the ladies, starting a bar fight, and walking out in full leather outfit with shades while BAD TO THE BONE is playing, this is COMEDY.  (riffing nicely on his entrance in t1...and his entrance in t3 just turns it up one more notch) when young john connor tells arnold that he can't kill anybody and then seconds later arnold kneecaps the security guard... this is COMEDY GOLD.and to make a blanket statement like "comedy in movies tends to be obvious" when there are so many hidden or subtle clever bits of humor in the most unlikeliest of movies... shows your narrow-minded concept of humor (nothing is funny unless it is obvious??)and im still befuddled  because i still remember seeing T2 in the movie theatre and the crowd ROARING with laughter at most of the jokes. so even if youre only looking for "obvious" clues to what is a joke... the audience shouldve tipped you off.</blockquote>
