SPOILER ALERT don't read if you are yet to see Eagle Eye.
I doubt that the Terminator introduced any new important ideas. Its notability is like that of David Chalmers' recent paper, in bringing old ideas to the attention of the broader public.
Eagle Eye was spoofing its own sensors at some point. Again, not a novel idea per se, but pretty great for a movie. In the beginning of the movie, IIRC there was some Bayesian updating going on based on different sources of evidence.
Yeah, so, those works aren't included because they didn't introduce any new important ideas I can think of.
