John Connor in the future should have sent back a terminator that didn't resemble the first one. Since he did, it tipped off the police and nearly made an enemy of Sarah Connor, when it should have been unrecognizable and earned her trust faster. [Perhaps so, but there's nothing in the first film to indicate that Connor knew what the first Terminator looked like, so how would he know when he sent the second?]
In the scene where John and Arnie are talking on the phone to the T-1000, who has killed and is imitating John's foster mother, Todd gets a drink from a carton and complains about the dog barking, the T-1000 stabs him through the carton, mouth and out of the back of his head pinning him upright against the kitchen wall killing him instantly, yet for over 30 seconds he is still gripping the carton with his left hand. [When people die, the muscles in their hands contract, making it possible for them to hold something for a while longer after they've died.]
When Arnie drives the police truck back into the cyberdyne building front lobby to rescue Sarah and John from the lift (after the swat team have shot gas into the lobby), the front desk in the middle of the lobby has miraculously disappeared, which allows the truck room to spin around and get everyone out. Had it been there then the truck would have smashed into it. [It is there, and the truck does smash into it. It's quite a long way back from the front doors, but you can see when the truck spins side on that it knocks it down the corridor. The truck's facing the short corridor down towards the toilet where the guard was put].
In Sara Connor's dream the nuke goes off and the buildings are exploding, the buildings structures remain but when you are that close to a nuclear blast, metals instantly vaporise. [In Sarah's dreams with the nuke, as she is not a nuclear scientist, she would not know exactly how different objects would behave so close to a nuclear blast, and as it is a dream, it does not have to obey the natural laws (physics etc.).]
If the machines were developed by the technology from studying the first Terminator's chip and arm at Cyberdine systems where did the the research come from to create the first Terminator arm and chip? [This question answers itself. The research to create the very first arm and chip (and the rest of the robot) comes from studying the real thing from the first sent-back terminator. Note that the very first arm and chip is the ones produced by cyberdine, not the ones sent back in time.]
At the start of the first film, the robots and the HK's all use lasers to waste the humans, but in the flash backs in the sequel, they are using bullet-firing automatic weapons. Why would the most advanced technology ever created switch to inferior weaponry? [They are actually using pulse rifles that fire short laser blasts. They just appear in some scenes like they are firing bullets because of the flames that shoot out of the guns barrels].
Listen to Sarah Conner's bare feet as she runs through the insane asylum. Her feet squeak on the floor with the sound of regular shoes. [Bare feet on a freshly waxed floor can sound like shoes].
At the start of the film at Cyberdyne Systems, the recruit tells Dyson that he has to sign for a test on the arm and the chip. He then walks through an area where people are wearing protective overalls. How come he doesn't need one or did they just contaminate the whole production area? [Some clean rooms don't require everyone to wear a cleansuit, because the suits are there to keep hair and skin flakes from the researchers from falling onto the project they're working on. Someone walking through the area like Dyson and his assistant (or a custodian getting a trash can) don't pose enough of a threat to most cleanroom work like that to require suits.]
