I can think of a hundred other movies where the main character survives an event that they wouldn't be able to in reality. All main characters have plot armor so according to you all movies/stories suffer from bad writing.
@@alucardofromania9844 I’m saying that being the main character should not be the reason for surviving. If a villains actions solely change for the fact that it’s a main character, then it’s clear you can’t write properly. Terminators are suppose to know practically every way to kill humans with their hands, so they decide to throw them? Instead of the T-600 throwing Connor, how about he hears it coming and dodges a fatal blow. Like in the next scene, John stops a blow using his legs. This is better because A. It slightly displays Connor’s skill and why he’s survived in this war B. Still makes the Terminator seem dangerous because it was constantly going for a lethal move instead of throwing Connor around because Dark Fate didn’t happen yet.

I love how before Dark Fate came out; everyone hated Salvation. But now that it’s out, Salvation is being praised. This is just like what happened to the Star Wars Prequels.
And both sides have the groups that liked the movies from the start and are like: "you could not live with hollywood's failure, and where did that bring you... back to me.
When Genisys came out people liked this film more I think. Dark Fate just sealed the coffin because they tried to remake the first two Terminator films 3 times and it just didn't work anymore. I think the problem is that Salvation doesn't feel like a Terminator film. T1 and T2 are intimate stories in the middle of larger battle over the fate of the world. T1 is a love story and T2 is a father son story. Salvation has some interesting moments, and if it has some rewrites it could've been better, but overall it doesn't have such an intimate story. The other issue is that these movies kept getting complicated and convoluted so any of the human relationships are ignored as you're focusing on how the plot makes no sense.
I mean, really...there's no way a machine that small could be that strong anyway. Humans are squishy, but we can actually handle a lot. No human-sized machine (unless it's made out of impossible supermaterials that physically cannot ever exist) could ever be so much stronger than a human that it would be that easy to kill us. The strongest human-sized machine could maybe be slightly stronger than a champion body-builder/athlete. And breaking someone's neck is not like it is in the movies. It's extremely difficult to do bare-handed even for the strongest and most skilled martial artists. It's more just an inconsistency of the movies than a plot hole.
@@DoremiFasolatido1979 The only limiter is the energy source. If the terminator is made of anything as durable or more durable than steel, it can use its actuators to easily break bones, shear or rip flesh, because it does not have to take care to damage itself. A simple hit by its arm or leg would probably enough, due to the mass and resulting force alone. If you can bash in a human skull with a baseball bat, a terminator can easily do it "bare handed". Or compare it to simple handheld power tools and the damage you can do with them, even the battery powered ones.
As time goes by this movie only gets more better in my eyes. It did not recycle the same plot at least and did so much good but .........we failed it too
No, just as more time passes the good parts of the movie is all you remember. Everything with John Connor was good, too bad most of the movie was about the other guy.
This film went in interesting directions when it came to the Terminators. This took place long before the war we had seen in 2029, when Humanity was still using bullets and missiles against the vulnerable T-600 models, Terminators which had outdated servomotors when compared to the T-800 and made a lot of deep mechanical whirring noises when they moved. This served to make them more menacing.
I think it was a good movie, could have been great, but being good should have been enough. It deserved a sequel. It deserved it's own trilogy. I think the weaponry that humanity still has at this point makes a lot of sense. A-10's, Hueys, manpads, ATGMs, at least one nuclear submarine, and militarized versions of civilian vehicles and aircraft.
@@22steve5150Originally it was supposed to be a sequel, but the company that made this movie went bankrupt (due to low box office sales) and had to sell the franchise to another company which later made genesis.
Wish we had more terminator movies like this. No time travel, no terminator protectors, no new and outlandish terminator models, just the war. I’ll even dare say it was a pretty cool decision to go with an age where the terminators weren’t bulletproof. Humanity is still using bullets, but the machines still aren’t cannon fodder. Personally I want more action with the T-600, but we all know what everybody else wants. A terminator war movie between humanity and the T-800 era machines, with plasma weapon and fields of skulls just like in T2’s deleted scene. Edit: Thank you SO much for the likes and comments!!!
Yes. Only problem this movie had was that the story was focused too heavily on Marcus Wright. John was like a secondary character. If the film had had more scenes like this one and been more focused on battles between the resistance and the terminators this film would have been one of the best Terminator movies ever made. It was just bad writing. I know Marcus Wright was supposed to be like the perfect infiltrator and all, but i think the movie just focused on his story too much.
@@245-TRIOXIN Personally i think they did right. When you see the setting of this movie, you can tell the people behind it wanted a saga in the war against the machines. You can tell this because this movie is based when humans and Terminators still used fire guns and not energy based ones. With that said, they clearly had in mind Marcus saving John from the start, hence why we get a lot of development from him and John. Personally i liked the whole concept of his Terminator and it really tied up well in the plot. In my opinion, it would have been kinda lame that we saw Marcus giving his life for John, if he did not had enough scenes as the ones he got in this movie. The impact on the story and in John Connor itself would have not been as big. Marcus arc ended very well, with him giving his life and a second chance to John, and in return getting what he always wanted, wich was death. I understand that a lot of people got dissapointed with Salvation because it was not what they expected. Most of the people wanted a film set around 2024 or so and fully focused on John and the resistance, wich is completly understandable. Still, Salvation did what Rise of the Machines did not. It gave us something totally new and fresh. A different plot from the whole Terminator vs Protector thing. It gave us the war against the machines and it also showcased a big number of new and cool Terminators, something that any good fan would appreciate. Also lets not forget about the amazing cast on Kyle Reese, and the fight with the T-800 was simply brilliant. This movie could have been much more, true, but you can tell they wanted to expand the story in order to make a full saga out of this. Still, in my opinion, Salvation is my 3rd favourite Terminator movie. And now that Dark Fate is out, a lot of people is finding out that this movie is unique on its own.
@@warchiefvenomn7612 Its still possible to have a Salvation sequel, despite audience have to acknowledge that it is clearly set in a different world, like Blade Runner 2049.
@@245-TRIOXIN it seems this way because the original script for this movie was supposed to have Marcus REPLACING John Connor after he dies at the end of the movie by transplanting his face on Marcus. He would be the one who survives to the end and won the war against the machines. Which kind of makes sense as Marcus would be harder to kill as being a cyborg would not attract Terminators focus. But test screen audiences hated that plot so it was re-wrote and we got this instead that's why the movie seems so focused on Marcus
@@M0butu also with the force throws him with and the objects he hits he should realistically be in to much pain to move or have several broken or fractured bones
I never hated this movie, myself. It's got a shit load of problems, but I liked some things in it, too. Out of all the bad Terminator movies, Salvation had the most potential. I still think a post-Judgement Day setting could be really great. Not sure why we can't give it another go if we apparently still feel like making Terminator movies, for whatever reason.
I disagree. The terminators in T1 and T2 were very hard to take down. That's why they used phased plasma rifles in all the future war scenes. Here, John Connor is equipped with a rifle that shoots 5.56 NATO rounds - a veritable pea shooter when compared to what the terminators are built to withstand.
@@sergey_is_sergey These are T-600s though, it wouldnt be a surprise if they are weaker than T-800. Also in T2 Arnold shows that the primary CPU is in the head, so shoot it enough times in the head close range through the eyes you could damage it and possibly take it offline at least temporarily.
@@sergey_is_sergey It is kinda odd that they would put the CPU in the head though like a human weakness, they could have hidden it deep inside the chassis somewhere. I guess Skynet wasnt THAT smart :D
That's the point of the terminators.. to be more human like and INFILTRATE humanity's resistance army and kill them sooooo..... The fact that you'll never know your closest friend is a human machine hybrid until he skynet initiates order 66 is the true nightmare 🤔
@terrorgang archives literally everyone freaks out when they drown. Even people who have mental problems and don't feel fear still freaks out when they're drowning.
if you noticed, a good detail is that once he penetrated the left upper side of its skull it immediately stopped functioning, like we saw in terminator 2, the processor chip for the T-800 is located in the upper left region of the skull, which most likely means its in the same place as the T-600
They should have redundant chips in the chest cavity. Or just make the brain deep in the chest, under like super thick adamantium type shit. Also I'm not sure if bipedal legs are the best form of locomotion for non-infiltration terminators. I think arms and hands are great though. hands especially are a work of art, one of nature's greatest adaptations, so definitely a good idea for a killer robot. With a hand you can have all sorts of weapons, bladed, bludgeon, ranged, etc.
T-600 didn't know it was John connor, and the T-600 wasn't armed how could he kill John? shooting with your finger? and being thrown at 4 meters is not trying to kill so it must be caress.
@@strayk9 Correction, it wasn't unarmed, but unlegged. Also, ahhahahaah ha, I'm sorry for laughing but there's some serious irony(no pun intended) in saying that a *terminator* is unarmed. Built for war, named after death; It's a terminator, it by itself, *_is_* a weapon and you can bet your country that it can kill you armed or not. But to be more exact, even without legs, a stable base, it was strong enough to send Connor flying. It can certainly crush bones by grip strength alone. And Connor himself couldn't have done anything to it without getting to the mounted gun which it helped him do by throwing him.
It’s the classic trope of the immortal protagonist. Since time immemorial the lead character has carried the plot through thick and thin that would kill lesser important characters. Could you imagine if it was otherwise. In a scene full of so much ludicrous stuff it’s not hard to ask the audience for one more suspension of belief.
William Terminator 1 when he throws Matt around, Terminator 2 when the T-1000 throws the T-800 instead of just killing him and getting it over with, T-X throwing the T-850 around, etc.
I basically have a pneumatic vice for a hand. So I'll use that immense gripping force to grab him by his clothes and throw him around a few times. That'll show him.
T-600 didn't know it was John connor, and the T-600 wasn't armed how could he kill John? shooting with your finger? and being thrown at 4 meters is not trying to kill so it must be caress.
The first one was not bad. The terminator was legless, it had no chance of catching him upright, so it threw him to the ground. The second one, I fully agree.

IDK lol I'm probably just thinking of Batman because of Bale, but still.@@pilotwhaleproductions5880
Salvation was the one film that had the best modern presentation of Terminators. Both as puppets and CGI. Really unfortunate that nobody took notes for their future films.
0:00-1:49 this isn’t a one take scene. I think there are some hidden cuts and camera angles changes. But you gonna say this is some truly amazing camera work from the director. Underrated movie
It's technically impressive but doesn't really make the scene inherently better. I didn't even notice until I read this comment. Most people don't notice. I personally found it a little disorienting.
Yup, unlike Dark Fate which just shat on him and replaced him with some random other person to fulfill the exact same role except being less believable as a badass and a leader.
This movie's got amazing sound production. The sounds of the terminator is downright nightmare fodder. It's so fucking cool at the same time! The sound of the T-600 moving is actually modded sounds of high pressure crushing of metal.
See, this is how you make a terminator threatening. The t-600 is constantly after him, and before he gets to the lmg, it’s clear John can do nothing to effectively attack it. In modern movies, they make the terminator a punching bag - while this one, an older model, manages to come pretty damn close to killing John Connor WITHOUT LEGS.
Each of them also planned as a trilogy they immediatly scrapped. They should have stuck to their guns and made a sequel to this one, I would much rather have that.
When I was a kid, I was legit scared of skeletons. Imagine seeing a metal skeleton grab someone from the back and throw them while emmiting such sounds. I knew it was a movie, but still I had nightmares. Nostalgia moment
That's apparently how Cameron got the idea. He had a dream/nightmare about a metal skeleton with glowing eyes crawling towards him while holding a knife.
People who hated this movie on release but come crawling back after dark fate: "You could not live with your own failure. Where did that bring you? Back to me."
This is the best Terminator film since T2, hands down. I loved the casting, the story, the visuals, the sound, everything about this film. I thought it was great and it showed a post-Judgement Day future the most convincingly.
@@Mrvanderspank I agree, I think it undermines the tension to have the result being thrown, if they just left it at "this thing is really tough don't let it touch you" the tension might be higher, I like the part where he catches the arm with his leg, kinda a human leg v terminator arm moment, I think that contact is fine
As one who grew up watching the heck out of Terminator 1 and 2 a billion times on VHS, I freaking loved Salvation! I didn't even know that it was considered "hated" until years later XD
I love Salvation. The whole time traveling back to protect John got old and it was great to finally see the future in more detail we kept hearing about. Probably my 3rd favorite Terminator film.
Always believed it was the T-700 in this scene...kinda difficult to tell them apart at times. When they announced a 5th Terminator project I was hoping it would be a continuation of the future war. Arnold didn't need to come back for the recent films in my opinion maybe a cameo as a human prisoner used by Skynet to replicate human tissue would have been justified.
Was never even in the film, it was poor CG, and that's impossible, its a 600 model, 700s were skipped and this is the time they produced the first 800s.
@@Tommy92gunner There are actually quite a few T-700 Endos later in the film. The on-screen version was identical in appearance to the T-800 but was made of Titanium-Steel rather than Hyperalloy. The concept art version was very much a hybrid of the T-600 and T-800. The concept art version was never seen in the film or video game. And the film version was referred to in dialogue as T-800s lol. So in a way you're correct.
They did at in my hometown 1 room theater. Town’s people voted for it on for throwback week. It’s so awesome on the big screen. This was back in January 2022
Shame this fight sequence was only thirty seconds. Should have been longer. Most CG animation has a very floaty feel to it but they did a great job with giving the T-600 some real weight and heft. It feels very ironpunk, like Tony Stark's first iron man suit, and feels like it's actually there on set. The other films could have learned a lot from this one.
1:54 Oh, oh, oh, glorious practical effects. Real Terminators... all thanks to the late Stan Winston... whose legacy has now been pissed on. RIP Stan Winston. The Man.
I agree. I just didn't like how the story was focused on the Marcus Wright character. Should have been more focused on battles/war between the resistance and the Terminators.
Terminator: Salvation was a really good movie. I liked how the terminators were so animated and audible. The mechanical sounds that they make when they are in motion is terrifyingly unnerving. They had a trilogy planned for this film. Had they went through with it, I honestly believe that they would've done the Terminator franchise justice...and proper closure.
Agree. I just wish the story wasn't so heavily focused on Marcus Wright. I liked the idea of him being like some sort of perfect infiltrator, but it just seemed like it was his story and not much else. If we'd had more scenes like this one and the story was more focused on the battles between the resistance and the terminators this might have been regarded as one of the best.
Imagine being in his situation, being thrown around by some massive robotic killing machine. It tosses you to the ground and crawls towards you, just barely stopped by your foot against it's arm, and then... 1:56 _It laughs._
I don't think that was a laugh, I that was the sound its arm was making from John forcing it back with his leg. This T-600 acts and sounds like it was almost ready for the junk yard whether John had dusted it with the M60 or not. By this point it was a toaster that had two arms and head.
Anyone notice how the terminator lets out a creepy laugh at 1:55 as john puts his foot up to hold its arm back and draws his pistol. Always thought that they got the sound affects spot on in this, and the laugh just adds more layers of creepyness
I think all that was it's gears and joints grinding hard as heck, because one key thing the T800 has over the T-600 here is the T-800 having magnetic joints.
This movie wasn't that bad. I was like 12 or 13 when it came out and I thought it was a breath of fresh air for the terminator franchise. All my life I wanted a movie post-judgement day and this totally satisfied that desire. I dont get why people hate on this movie. It's bad ass and way better than the last 2 we got.
I mean this isnt the first time a Terminator wasted an opportunity to kill remember in T2: Judgement Day when the T 1000 stabbed Sara but instead of killing her he tried getting her to call John despite literally minutes later transform a into Sara (who is alive for some reason everyone else he copied is dead) himself and calls out to John
@@rusty7984 It's subtle. The T-1000 realizes it's not entirely convincing and that a human can tell when it's imitating a human. For instance, when he took the form of John's foster mom, John immediately realized something wasn't right, and figured it out. Thus getting Sarah to do it is more convincing. The T-1000 has a very surface level understanding of human society. He takes the form of a police officer, thinking it will make John trust him, not knowing that John doesn't trust the police. He was about to kill Sarah too, but the T-800 stopped him.
I really liked this portrait of the first stages of the future war, where conventional ammo could damage the first versions of the machines. They should 've continued from here, after the t800 started to be produced
I remeber when I watched the movie back in 2010 and I liked it a lot although it was different than what we were used to in Terminator movies. The idea of having older models being used and generally the excellent sound design (modern robotic machine sounds) were great Now I see that I had good reason to like it as many have changed their opinion about it.
I just want to say, the comments in these videos are just the best. You guys always notice things that I seem to miss, and it just adds so much more when I re-watch for it.
Nearlydead Idk how you could not. It’s literally the biggest plot device in the series. They write themselves into a corners whenever a terminator gets within arms reach. “Well, the terminator got a hold of him now, what should he do to him in this scene?” “Well we can’t have the main character die yet, just make the terminator throw him”
@@marioss2167 he doesn't have to kill all the time, he didn't kill the punk that gave him his clothes in the first one either, though he killed his buddies. That's different from this scene, where the terminator has an order to kill humans on sight yet he throws him around.
The T-600 just grabs his shoulder so nicely, instead of breaking his neck in two which it could EASILY do; now that’s some titanium reinforced plot armour Mr Connor.
Even though Terminator Salvation is my 3rd favorite Terminator movie, despite its flaws, but that "throwmenator" joke is funny and valid. I get a kick out of it, cause as much as I love this movie, that is funny, because it's true.
@@DrumCoversFromHell Well I mean, Matt wasn't really his primary target, so it really didn't matter if he killed him or not. John Connor however is the main threat to Skynet, yet every time they got their hands on him, they tossed him around instead of impaling him with their fists. If I took a shot every time a Terminator threw Connor around in Salvation, I'd be drunk. LOL
I love how the shot goes on for nearly 2 minutes straight, yeah a lot of digital manipulation used to make it appear that way but it's an insane level of commitment done by the director to give it this very visceral war-like appeal. Crazy to believe the 2nd best director (my opinion) of the Terminator franchise was the guy behind Charlie's Angels, and that Netflix Babysitter movie.
This one scene alone was better than the whole Dark Fate and Genisys movies combined. The visual effects alone put those movies to shame despite being a decade or not older

I think the problem is that Salvation doesn't feel like a Terminator film. T1 and T2 are intimate stories in the middle of larger battle over the fate of the world. T1 is a love story and T2 is a father son story. Salvation has some interesting moments, and if it has some rewrites it could've been better, but overall it doesn't have such an intimate story. The other issue is that these movies kept getting complicated and convoluted so any of the human relationships are ignored as you're focusing on how the plot makes no sense.
when it comes to movies, people don't know what they want to enjoy.

I like how it could’ve just snapped his neck when It surprised him but was nice enough to toss him around so as to not damage his plot armor
"Plot armors are TIGHT!"
Snap his neck?That thing could’ve ripped his head off easily.
I mean, really...there's no way a machine that small could be that strong anyway. Humans are squishy, but we can actually handle a lot. No human-sized machine (unless it's made out of impossible supermaterials that physically cannot ever exist) could ever be so much stronger than a human that it would be that easy to kill us. The strongest human-sized machine could maybe be slightly stronger than a champion body-builder/athlete. And breaking someone's neck is not like it is in the movies. It's extremely difficult to do bare-handed even for the strongest and most skilled martial artists.
It's more just an inconsistency of the movies than a plot hole.
@@DoremiFasolatido1979 Facts. The programming in the T-600 could be incredibly limited as well.
@@DoremiFasolatido1979 The only limiter is the energy source. If the terminator is made of anything as durable or more durable than steel, it can use its actuators to easily break bones, shear or rip flesh, because it does not have to take care to damage itself. A simple hit by its arm or leg would probably enough, due to the mass and resulting force alone. If you can bash in a human skull with a baseball bat, a terminator can easily do it "bare handed". Or compare it to simple handheld power tools and the damage you can do with them, even the battery powered ones.
As time goes by this movie only gets more better in my eyes. It did not recycle the same plot at least and did so much good but .........we failed it too

@JayMane agree
@@jonmarsh7914 so true.
No, just as more time passes the good parts of the movie is all you remember. Everything with John Connor was good, too bad most of the movie was about the other guy.
@Boba Fett I've always liked the first half. I just didn't like Helen Bonham Carter and future government scenes.
This film went in interesting directions when it came to the Terminators. This took place long before the war we had seen in 2029, when Humanity was still using bullets and missiles against the vulnerable T-600 models, Terminators which had outdated servomotors when compared to the T-800 and made a lot of deep mechanical whirring noises when they moved. This served to make them more menacing.
Especially emphasis on the war part more or less
Which sucks cuz I actually enjoyed this vs the rest of the series
I think it was a good movie, could have been great, but being good should have been enough. It deserved a sequel. It deserved it's own trilogy.
I think the weaponry that humanity still has at this point makes a lot of sense. A-10's, Hueys, manpads, ATGMs, at least one nuclear submarine, and militarized versions of civilian vehicles and aircraft.
@@22steve5150Originally it was supposed to be a sequel, but the company that made this movie went bankrupt (due to low box office sales) and had to sell the franchise to another company which later made genesis.

Wish we had more terminator movies like this. No time travel, no terminator protectors, no new and outlandish terminator models, just the war. I’ll even dare say it was a pretty cool decision to go with an age where the terminators weren’t bulletproof. Humanity is still using bullets, but the machines still aren’t cannon fodder. Personally I want more action with the T-600, but we all know what everybody else wants. A terminator war movie between humanity and the T-800 era machines, with plasma weapon and fields of skulls just like in T2’s deleted scene.
Edit: Thank you SO much for the likes and comments!!!
We can only hope my friend
That’s what what I would do if I directed the terminator films
first scene from terminator 5 extended into two more movies. Perfection.
then it would not be a terminator movie
@@OmegaKingHyperionPX9 why not? Future war with the machines sounds awesome.
Terminator fans rewatching salvation again after seeing dark fate: perhaps I treated you too harshly
Yes. Only problem this movie had was that the story was focused too heavily on Marcus Wright. John was like a secondary character. If the film had had more scenes like this one and been more focused on battles between the resistance and the terminators this film would have been one of the best Terminator movies ever made. It was just bad writing. I know Marcus Wright was supposed to be like the perfect infiltrator and all, but i think the movie just focused on his story too much.
@@245-TRIOXIN
Personally i think they did right. When you see the setting of this movie, you can tell the people behind it wanted a saga in the war against the machines. You can tell this because this movie is based when humans and Terminators still used fire guns and not energy based ones.
With that said, they clearly had in mind Marcus saving John from the start, hence why we get a lot of development from him and John. Personally i liked the whole concept of his Terminator and it really tied up well in the plot. In my opinion, it would have been kinda lame that we saw Marcus giving his life for John, if he did not had enough scenes as the ones he got in this movie. The impact on the story and in John Connor itself would have not been as big. Marcus arc ended very well, with him giving his life and a second chance to John, and in return getting what he always wanted, wich was death.
I understand that a lot of people got dissapointed with Salvation because it was not what they expected. Most of the people wanted a film set around 2024 or so and fully focused on John and the resistance, wich is completly understandable. Still, Salvation did what Rise of the Machines did not. It gave us something totally new and fresh. A different plot from the whole Terminator vs Protector thing. It gave us the war against the machines and it also showcased a big number of new and cool Terminators, something that any good fan would appreciate. Also lets not forget about the amazing cast on Kyle Reese, and the fight with the T-800 was simply brilliant. This movie could have been much more, true, but you can tell they wanted to expand the story in order to make a full saga out of this. Still, in my opinion, Salvation is my 3rd favourite Terminator movie. And now that Dark Fate is out, a lot of people is finding out that this movie is unique on its own.
@@warchiefvenomn7612 Its still possible to have a Salvation sequel, despite audience have to acknowledge that it is clearly set in a different world, like Blade Runner 2049.
@@245-TRIOXIN it seems this way because the original script for this movie was supposed to have Marcus REPLACING John Connor after he dies at the end of the movie by transplanting his face on Marcus. He would be the one who survives to the end and won the war against the machines. Which kind of makes sense as Marcus would be harder to kill as being a cyborg would not attract Terminators focus. But test screen audiences hated that plot so it was re-wrote and we got this instead that's why the movie seems so focused on Marcus
It’s funny how you’re quoting thanos. The MCU is killing the viability of many other movie franchises. Especially if they aren’t comic book movies.

@@M0butu also with the force throws him with and the objects he hits he should realistically be in to much pain to move or have several broken or fractured bones
I never hated this movie, myself. It's got a shit load of problems, but I liked some things in it, too. Out of all the bad Terminator movies, Salvation had the most potential. I still think a post-Judgement Day setting could be really great. Not sure why we can't give it another go if we apparently still feel like making Terminator movies, for whatever reason.
After t1 and t2, salvation got the most terrifying and realistic terminators in the movie.....
Thank you for your note
I disagree. The terminators in T1 and T2 were very hard to take down. That's why they used phased plasma rifles in all the future war scenes. Here, John Connor is equipped with a rifle that shoots 5.56 NATO rounds - a veritable pea shooter when compared to what the terminators are built to withstand.
@@sergey_is_sergey These are T-600s though, it wouldnt be a surprise if they are weaker than T-800. Also in T2 Arnold shows that the primary CPU is in the head, so shoot it enough times in the head close range through the eyes you could damage it and possibly take it offline at least temporarily.
@@nboy7 Good point. I stand corrected.
@@sergey_is_sergey It is kinda odd that they would put the CPU in the head though like a human weakness, they could have hidden it deep inside the chassis somewhere. I guess Skynet wasnt THAT smart :D

if you noticed, a good detail is that once he penetrated the left upper side of its skull it immediately stopped functioning, like we saw in terminator 2, the processor chip for the T-800 is located in the upper left region of the skull, which most likely means its in the same place as the T-600
Derecha

They should have redundant chips in the chest cavity. Or just make the brain deep in the chest, under like super thick adamantium type shit. Also I'm not sure if bipedal legs are the best form of locomotion for non-infiltration terminators. I think arms and hands are great though. hands especially are a work of art, one of nature's greatest adaptations, so definitely a good idea for a killer robot. With a hand you can have all sorts of weapons, bladed, bludgeon, ranged, etc.

But to be more exact, even without legs, a stable base, it was strong enough to send Connor flying. It can certainly crush bones by grip strength alone.
And Connor himself couldn't have done anything to it without getting to the mounted gun which it helped him do by throwing him.
strayk9 the terminator could’ve just grabbed him and twisted his neck and be done for, he had good opportunities but he just threw him

It’s the classic trope of the immortal protagonist. Since time immemorial the lead character has carried the plot through thick and thin that would kill lesser important characters. Could you imagine if it was otherwise. In a scene full of so much ludicrous stuff it’s not hard to ask the audience for one more suspension of belief.

The first one was not bad. The terminator was legless, it had no chance of catching him upright, so it threw him to the ground.
The second one, I fully agree.

I like how polite the T-600 is by tapping on John's shoulder
T-600 : Hi, are you John connor ? Oh yes you are . I'm here to kill you
The T-600 has to figure out if John was a terminator or human
Also the Terminator could not identify someone if turned around. Had to get a look at his face first.
It sitting there with a stick on moustache and a cravat, cup of eral grey, "excuse me old boy, you wouldn't have came across my legs would you?"

Would also be similar to transformers?
See, this is how you make a terminator threatening. The t-600 is constantly after him, and before he gets to the lmg, it’s clear John can do nothing to effectively attack it. In modern movies, they make the terminator a punching bag - while this one, an older model, manages to come pretty damn close to killing John Connor WITHOUT LEGS.

IXOwenIX more like dark shit
It's a shame Salvation wasn't very well received. I thought it was a great movie with some awesome CGI and action scenes.
I agree. I just didn't like how the story was focused on the Marcus Wright character. Should have been more focused on battles/war between the resistance and the Terminators.
Still this the best of the terminator series. No time travel no bakchodi. Only war
Terminator: Salvation was a really good movie. I liked how the terminators were so animated and audible. The mechanical sounds that they make when they are in motion is terrifyingly unnerving. They had a trilogy planned for this film. Had they went through with it, I honestly believe that they would've done the Terminator franchise justice...and proper closure.
Agree. I just wish the story wasn't so heavily focused on Marcus Wright. I liked the idea of him being like some sort of perfect infiltrator, but it just seemed like it was his story and not much else. If we'd had more scenes like this one and the story was more focused on the battles between the resistance and the terminators this might have been regarded as one of the best.
It's worse than a cutscene from Modern Warfare 3.
@@mct8888 call of duty is a pure shit.
@@mct8888 ok virgin

He can't be a virgin... he got sexually abused by his uncle.
Love how bulky and mechanical it is. The visuals and sound design in this film are absolutely stellar.
Imagine being in his situation, being thrown around by some massive robotic killing machine. It tosses you to the ground and crawls towards you, just barely stopped by your foot against it's arm, and then...
1:56
_It laughs._
Oh shit i didnt even realize it did that
Sounds horrifying.
..and then throws him again.
I don't think that was a laugh, I that was the sound its arm was making from John forcing it back with his leg. This T-600 acts and sounds like it was almost ready for the junk yard whether John had dusted it with the M60 or not. By this point it was a toaster that had two arms and head.
@@robotbjorn4952
Oh god will tits stop making this type of comment already?
The pause at 1:47 was like the T600 was saying "Hey dude nothing personal"
Anyone notice how the terminator lets out a creepy laugh at 1:55 as john puts his foot up to hold its arm back and draws his pistol. Always thought that they got the sound affects spot on in this, and the laugh just adds more layers of creepyness
I think all that was it's gears and joints grinding hard as heck, because one key thing the T800 has over the T-600 here is the T-800 having magnetic joints.
Those terminators even throw their target away when they can only crawl after it. 😂
Hyuk-hyuk.
Man whoever directed the feminator 2019 movie should see this
Tim miller. Deadpool 1 director
Feminator is the prefect title dam
0:11 A wild Terry Crews is spotted!
This movie wasn't that bad. I was like 12 or 13 when it came out and I thought it was a breath of fresh air for the terminator franchise. All my life I wanted a movie post-judgement day and this totally satisfied that desire. I dont get why people hate on this movie. It's bad ass and way better than the last 2 we got.
Yes 👍
I mean this isnt the first time a Terminator wasted an opportunity to kill remember in T2: Judgement Day when the T 1000 stabbed Sara but instead of killing her he tried getting her to call John despite literally minutes later transform a into Sara (who is alive for some reason everyone else he copied is dead) himself and calls out to John
@@rusty7984 It's subtle. The T-1000 realizes it's not entirely convincing and that a human can tell when it's imitating a human. For instance, when he took the form of John's foster mom, John immediately realized something wasn't right, and figured it out. Thus getting Sarah to do it is more convincing. The T-1000 has a very surface level understanding of human society. He takes the form of a police officer, thinking it will make John trust him, not knowing that John doesn't trust the police.
He was about to kill Sarah too, but the T-800 stopped him.
Totally agree, this movie had the balls to drop the time travel gimmick and move on. Audience was not ready to quit their comfort.
This film is my favorite sequel to T2. Every other Terminator film has been a joke
I really liked this portrait of the first stages of the future war, where conventional ammo could damage the first versions of the machines. They should 've continued from here, after the t800 started to be produced
I've always liked this movie when it came out. I thought it was a masterpiece. I was not wrong about it.
It's awesome how realistic this looks, they've nailed it with the fight, especially with the upside down machine gun.
Almost Everything was good in Salivation.
Except Thowminator
Throwmenator?
One of the bests part terminators, with great actror (Cristaian Bale).
They did a good job making the terminators look terrifying.
1:56 T-600 : hahahaha lol 🤣😂
I remeber when I watched the movie back in 2010 and I liked it a lot although it was different than what we were used to in Terminator movies.
The idea of having older models being used and generally the excellent sound design (modern robotic machine sounds) were great
Now I see that I had good reason to like it as many have changed their opinion about it.
0:06 when you film with you friends for the first time but you are the main character😂
I just want to say, the comments in these videos are just the best. You guys always notice things that I seem to miss, and it just adds so much more when I re-watch for it.
That M60 saved his life!
I loved that this movie showed the T-600s, the failed infiltrator model Kyle mentioned to Sarah back in the first film.
They weren't infiltration units.
@@robirvine6970 they were. The T600's were at times deployed with rubber skin, but that was not convincing
I love how this looks like a single shot
That belt saved his life.... Never forget your belt folks!!
The Best Sequel after "Judgment Day".
I betcha you're saying that because of Dark fate
*JUJ YAY*
@@JynxedKoma ok lol
This was my favorite Terminator movie after Terminator 2.
To be fair the bar was pretty low.
Degree7 “After” You seem to be the brain damaged one.
“I call this one the throwinator”
“Damn this terminator really likes to throw people”
Have y’all not seen the other terminators? Lol
I don't recall Sarah or John Connor in T1 or T2 being thrown around like that. Have you seen the other terminators?
@@nearlydead7510 the first scene that to mind was the T2 scene where Arnold throws a biker dude out of the window, while Bad to The Bone was playing
Nearlydead Idk how you could not. It’s literally the biggest plot device in the series. They write themselves into a corners whenever a terminator gets within arms reach.
“Well, the terminator got a hold of him now, what should he do to him in this scene?”
“Well we can’t have the main character die yet, just make the terminator throw him”
@@marioss2167 he doesn't have to kill all the time, he didn't kill the punk that gave him his clothes in the first one either, though he killed his buddies. That's different from this scene, where the terminator has an order to kill humans on sight yet he throws him around.
@@marioss2167 because that wasnt his target. Like It was said, he doesnt have to kill randoms all the time.
The T-600 just grabs his shoulder so nicely, instead of breaking his neck in two which it could EASILY do; now that’s some titanium reinforced plot armour Mr Connor.
Even though Terminator Salvation is my 3rd favorite Terminator movie, despite its flaws, but that "throwmenator" joke is funny and valid. I get a kick out of it, cause as much as I love this movie, that is funny, because it's true.
Wow that's so funny
@@KoroSin777 and that's even more funny when you realise that's funny
@@yap7656 woah that is funny when you think about how funny that funny comment was.
It's no different from T1. the terminator threw Matt all around th place
@@DrumCoversFromHell Well I mean, Matt wasn't really his primary target, so it really didn't matter if he killed him or not. John Connor however is the main threat to Skynet, yet every time they got their hands on him, they tossed him around instead of impaling him with their fists. If I took a shot every time a Terminator threw Connor around in Salvation, I'd be drunk. LOL
I love how the shot goes on for nearly 2 minutes straight, yeah a lot of digital manipulation used to make it appear that way but it's an insane level of commitment done by the director to give it this very visceral war-like appeal. Crazy to believe the 2nd best director (my opinion) of the Terminator franchise was the guy behind Charlie's Angels, and that Netflix Babysitter movie.
Dormammu he did better than the miller dork
@@edTV2024 Passion and dedication can turn a court jester into a serious artist.
That 1/2 terminator trying to kill Connor is freaking terrifying! Especially knowing how much it takes to kill one!
This one scene alone was better than the whole Dark Fate and Genisys movies combined. The visual effects alone put those movies to shame despite being a decade or not older
