* ''Westernanimation/MyLittlePonyANewGeneration'': "Judgement Neigh", a parody of ''Terminator 2: Judgment Day'' is shown in a cinema

** In contrast to [[VideoGame/Splatoon1 the first game]]'s metallic goggles worn by [[EliteMook enemy Octolings]], they wear sunglasses with a single glowing red dot over the left eye in ''VideoGame/Splatoon2''; referencing the first T-800's damaged eye, which it hides with a pair of shades.

--> '''Bud''': We need your boots, pants, and motorcycle.
--> '''Captain''': But we don't have a motorcycle!
--> '''Terrence''': Then we'll take this ship!

* One level in ''VideoGame/Splatoon2: Octo Expansion'' is titled "Hasta La Vista Station", with the level subtitle "I know now why you ink...". The reference is made even more explicit with the mission's description, which reads "''Terminate all the enemies before time runs out!''", uniquely using the word "terminate" rather than "defeat".

** One scene in Episode 6 of ''Manga/DropkickOnMyDevil X'' sees Jashin struggling to stay afloat in the swamp like the T-1000 before finally submerging and giving the audience a thumbs up like the T-800 just like the ending of ''[=T2=]''

** [[http://imgbox.com/8eqn4Mqh One]] character threatens to freeze another and shatter them like the T-1000 in ''T2''. The footnote even apologizes for spoiling ''T2''.

* In ''VideoGame/EarthwormJim'', [[https://youtu.be/QiI7MT7wdCI the music for completing Andy Asteroids bonus levels]] ends on a sample of Det. Vukovich's "HEY!" (when he comes to the aid of Wexler before being killed as well). This sample was later edited out in later re-releases of the game. For extra points, the composer of ''Jim'', Tommy Tallerico, worked on a well-received soundtrack for the Sega CD version of ''The Terminator''.

* In ''[[Film/AmericanPie American Pie 2]]'', Sherman, as The Sherminator, says, "Hasta la vista, Jessica."
* ''Film/CaptainMarvel'' has the titular heroine steal a biker's bike (no need for clothes, she's already got the look down, unless you count the deleted scene).

* The one hit wonder ''I'll Be Back'' by Arnee and the Terminaters.

* During the harbour stage of ''VideoGame/SlapsAndBeans'', the two players, Bud and Terrence, infiltrates a cruiser and steals the clothes of the captain and first mate while quoting the first ''Terminator'' movie. [[AnachronismStew The game is set in the 1970s, before the Terminator movies even existed]]. But then again, the whole game runs on RuleOfFunny.

* ''[=AstroLOLogy=]'' has the short "Cancer Terminates", where Leo plays a spoof of the T-800 sent back to kill Aries.

* ''VideoGame/{{Fortnite}}'' features ''T2'' Sarah and the skinless T-800 as guest characters, with their announcement cinematic being of Agent Jonesy pulling the ''T2'' T-800 out from the molten lava from the ''T2'' ending. The Zero Point Crisis Finale cinematic also has Sarah do her one-handed shotgun reload and she's rescued from an encroaching army of T-800s when [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Ripley]] shows up in a tanker that [[DownTheLADrain she drives off of from the bridge above them]]. Additionally, an emote referencing the thumbs-up can be purchased with their skins.
** One of the skins, the P-1000, is a robot version of [[MascotCharacter Peely]].

** In "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E9GriftOfTheMagi Grift Of The Magi]]": When Homer, Bart, and Lisa [[KillItWithFire burn all the]] [[FauxFurby Funzo]] toys, one Funzo rises out of the flames like the T-800 from the first ''Terminator'' film. Thankfully, Creator/GaryColeman [[ItMakesSenseInContext steps in and subdues it]].

* It should come to no surprise that ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'' contains a few, given that it's a love letter to horror films. A bit amusingly, Creator/JamesCameron [[https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/avatar-james-cameron-loves-resident-evil/ has admitted]] that the ''Film/ResidentEvil'' films are a guilty pleasure for him, so it almost comes full-circle.
