Looking to the Future

Share via

The violent sci-fi film “Terminator 2” is drawing considerable criticism over its alleged $100-million cost. On the other hand, celebration and praise continue to be heaped on the very real Gulf War, in which Iraqi men, women, children and babies met violent death from real shells and rockets ($100 million would, incidentally, pay for just two F-15 jet fighters).

All of this does not make me feel like facing the future with renewed hope, like Linda Hamilton at the end of “Terminator 2.”
