Crystal Skull though. Come on. Just... it's barely watchable...

I thought the fridge scene that everyone said was ridiculous was really funny.

With Terminator it shows that what you can do with these franchises (eg. Alien, Predator, Jurassic Park, even Star Wars) story-wise is actually quite limited. With Terminator it has to be a robot sent back to our time to kill someone. And when you deviate from that it doesn't really work. It's as much to do with audiences expectations also.
