Terminator 2: Judgment Day currently beats Blade Runner 64–36

The Verdict

T2 leading Blade Runner is the expected result — Cameron's film is faster, more emotionally immediate, and arrives at its conclusions without asking the audience to do interpretive work. The truck chase, the liquid metal, the canal sequence — these moments register in real time, no second viewing required. Blade Runner's strengths are slower: the atmosphere accumulates, the ambiguity deepens, the production design reveals new details on every watch. Those are real advantages, but they're the kind that show up over years rather than in the few seconds it takes to pick between two films. The more immediate experience is winning, and the margin says it's close enough to argue about.
