As far as teaser trailers go, Terminator 2: Judgement Day's had it all. Bespoke footage, bags of intrigue and Arnie uttering his famous "I'll be back" line.

The video gave fans an up-close look at a Skynet production line where T-800s were being fleshed out to fight in the war against the remnants of mankind. It was stylishly shot, the whole scene bathed in blue light.

The trailer teased the return of Arnie's killing machine but keept its cards firmly to its robotic chest. Fans at this point could only assume the T-800 would be the villain again in the sequel, unless they'd been served some spoilers from wherever they came from in a pre-internet age.

And then it closed with a sober title card and an "I'll be back". Teaser perfection.
