*This is "open matte" version, higher aspect ratio than the original blu-ray version. Frame comparison: **ibb.co/HNsrZNg*
I’ve been following all of your uploads thank you so much keep doing it
Can you explain what you mean by "open matte"?
Thank you for the upload! I'm among those who, rather than waiting for Gandalf or a letter from Hogwarts, always preferred fearing a Terminator would come from the Future!
Sometimes I feel like in time this will be our future on machines taking over the more smarter they become to not need humans.
Is there a source for this open matte version? Is it just ripped from the Blu Ray? I have that one, yours has less grain (could be TH-cam compression)
That 80’s retro music is the cherry top in this scene.
The 80s everything Is just lovely
ironically, music made by machines (synths, electronic keyboards, drum machines, etc)
I've been fascinated by the music and sound in this scene.
@@jjrj8568
Good Observation they (Artificial Intelligence) Had Already Begun The Conditioning Phase .
Thats not 80'ies retro... Thats plain 80'ies.
Imagine having PTSD from construction equipment, poor Reese, his life was hell from start to finish.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posttraumatic_stress_disorder
Hes having nightmares about events that haven't even happened yet
Facts Nathan
@@charliekk3377 pre-traumatic stress disorder
@@charliekk3377 yes but he was there....he saw combat and horror...he is a war veteran
Man, the 1984 version of the future is fucking grim, brutal and dark, no wonder why Kyle Reese is constantly on edge. The other movies versions of the futures just don't have the same grittiness.
It's because when a terminator gets it's hands on you in the other movies they just throw you around
The best Terminator movie of the all ?..The Original period all stop.
Truth!
To me its just T1 And T2 fuck the rest.
Terminator salvation didnt even get a chance to show this cause we didnt get a sequel that shows the machines use lasers
Reese reaction when girl soldier is blown away is great, like he's devastated, but no Time for feelings just keeps fighting however possible, what a kick ass scene
Yea I love that part he looks so devastated he witnessed someone get vaporized and now hes back in the past where people couldnt imagine such a thing
I think thats the same mute girl (as an adult now) from terminator salvation.
NeoShenlong00X this lady was white and the little girl from salvation is look like mix black/Mexican.
niceee
@@NeoShenlong00X Indeed, same girl who could sense machines. So sad to be honest.
When she threw the bomb and the machine turrent just automatically snapped to her and disintegrates her is so brutal
Compare that to the BS "war" scenes in the new Terminator "films" if you want a chuckle. They feel like looney tunes trash compared to this no whoreshit, stark brutal badassery
@SgtBaker16 I love the razor sharp snap the turrent made to lock on target
@@tylercouture216 "machine-like" efficiency.
The moment a human is in the illumination of it's searchlights?
Pivot.
Lock on.
Kill.
All in a blink of an eye. (really makes the machines seem all the more intimidating)
@@sharkdentures3247 exactly I love how they captured that with no effort I love the 80s
That wasn't disintegration, just plain blown to bits.
Poor Kyle, you can simply tell from his eyes that he's been through hell. What a performance.
Just Another Day in Some of the Neighborhood's I Grew up In .
@@victorvictor8587 pffffttt yeah ok 😂
@@victorvictor8587 is this a future neighborhood in Los Angeles?
Soldier with war trauma, this fat dude from genisys is no kyle.
Nicholas Chen Michael Biehn sells so much of the future war just from his eyes, his worry and the descriptions. You only see a minor bit of the war visually, but his acting sells it in spades, amazing work...
The bit that makes me feel the most sorry for him in this whole movie is seeing how he pumps the shotgun in his sleep. I still remember my first viewing, wondering what life he must led to have developed a reflex like that.
Growing up in a war-torn world, he learnt to sleep with one eye open basically. Seeing him wake up in a flash from the construction machinery thinking their might be HKs. We can see here he is suffering from PTSD when he went through time & having a culture shock etc. That scene alone shows some incredible world building.
Oh my god! I've never realised this until you pointed it out. What a nice touch to the character's depth (I mean... in addition to an already amazing scene).
Did you notice when he wakes up the radio is playing an advertisement for compact laser discs? Which at the time were new technology? It's like a reminder of what led to the world of Reese's nightmares.
*Fans:* We want an entire movie with this Future War
*Tim Miller:* Let's rehash T1 and T2 again, and instead of John Connor, we'll replace him with a 5 ft 1 Mexican gal
Stann an fiye!
The sequels to salvation was gonna give us this! But we got genisys and dark fate instead.
Mate I just bought Terminator : Resistance and got that experience, I highly recommend you that game
just fyi the actress is colombian though!
@@ericcalicci8775 there is a sequel comic to Terminator Salvation that's worth a read, it gives an amazing ending for the franchise
Reese is such a tragic character
Born in a charred world. Seeing his comrades and friends ripped to shreds by machines. Goes on a solo (suicidal) mission. Meets the love of his life and dies without the knowledge if he accomplished his mission or not.
If that ain't tragic I don't know the meaning of the word
He actually asked himslef what Sarah thought when she looked sad on that photo and it was him. The photo was taken after his death at the fuel station. I love the perfect cycle in T1 and its the only true Terminator movie for me.
@@daustin8888 well well well put. The unsung hero that Kyle Reese is, sergeant to you buddy.
@@daustin8888 also traveling so far back in time he hadn't even been born yet. A PTSD suffering soldier literally out of place out of time even
More like a bad ass character
40 years later still looks more badass than most of modern cinema... Its unique how at a specific moment a movie was made and will never be replicated in the same way.
@randomguy9777 blood, sweat and tears instead of budget went into it
CGI and shaky cam worked hand in hand to destroy cinema
@@shadow7988 but CGI was in Terminator 2 and it still looked fantastic
@@FrozenVibraniumProductions - Yes, but unlike movies starting from 15 years ago, it wasn't so utterly dependent on CGI to distract the audience from poor writing, plot, story, motivations, or pretty much anything that has any value beyond being baffled with bs. JJ Abrams is one of the worst, his style is so fast-paced and packed with random McGuffins you don't have time to think about how nonsense it really is.
physical effects are the best
If you've played Terminator: Resistance and its new DLC, than you know that this nightmare is actually real.
Ferro... ;( damn this DLC was faithful!
And Evans on the gunner while Rivers just watched
And Ferro who threw the bomb and got killed
That DLC ever coming to console?
@@JemRau Not to mention that Evans is the prototype for *The Arnie* model
This scene shows how the future war evolved from using ballistics, to using lasers against soulless machines.
They are plasma weapons, not lasers. x)
@@GrandSachemEthylique I blame schools, they taught us there's 3 phases of matter instead of 4.
@@livingcorpse5664 Apparently there are other states of matter such as supersolid material.
@@GrandSachemEthylique NICE!
Good point!
I still like the sound of the plasma weapons in this one and the second one better than any modern sci fi weapons. Only thing that can compete for me is the M41 pulse rifle from Aliens.
The Pulse rifle is still the ultimate sci fi weapon to me. you have no idea how much I wanted a toy one when I was a kid.
Oh absolutely
Not only the sound effect, but the visual effects as well are so effective. I love how the plasma rays cut through the shot here and there. Death could happen at anytime. It's depressing.
Blade Runners Blaster Pistol competes for Ultimate Scifi weapon for me... It's such a beautiful design!
Sound FX of those future TERMINATOR weapons are in my Top Ten List of Favorites as well - along with TRANSFORMERS, STAR TREK, STAR WARS, ALIENS starring Sigourney Weaver, INDEPENDENCE DAY films, early-2-mid 1980s GI JOE cartoons, etc.
I first watched this as a kid in the 80's when it was released. It never occurred to me that the other soldier was a woman, and it never occurred to me how that plays into Reese never having an actual relationship with a woman. The audience gets a momentary glimpse at a female resistance fighter, and then watch as she is literally splattered in front of Reese. Extremely sad.
Also explain why he would fall in love with Sarah, someone who couldn’t be taken away from him in that way.
It also foreshadows a later scene in the movie - Sarah asks Kyle what the women are like in his time. His response: "Good fighters".
lol niceeee ikrrrrrrr its very sad and depressing tbh!!!!! how was it in the 80s?"?!!!
Hell yeah, it was great story telling, 'cause all they had to do was show that it was a chick for a split second and you suddenly realize that's how devastating the war is and how desperate the last bit of the human resistance is; EVERYONE had to fight. No exceptions.
This is a high quality remaster. It's hard to tell it was a girl in the old school VHS or even DVD copies. They were a lot darker.
I did play Terminator Resistance. When this scene was on the line my tears flow down my cheek. The developers made backstory for the died women and the machinegunner. I was shocked how they made this scene honorable to the Terminator franchise. Thank You Teyon and Reef Entertainment!!!
What they did was pure respect, enough said.
I got everything I waited for with that DLC
Charlotte Ferro
When a DLC is a better part of the franchise, than everything since Terminator 3. What a ride.
im buying it right now
In Chicago they call this “Saturday night “.
Traveling Taco Salesman 😂
This is every day in Detroit
Chicago and Detroit needs SKYNET
This comment is gold
🤣🤣🤣
I believe you.
This scene alone better than dark fate and genisys
A 3 second .gif image of this scene is better than all of Genesis and Dark Fate put together... I put myself through the grating torture of Genesis... I learned my lesson and won't make that mistake with Dark fate. Woke trash doesn't deserve a second of my time.
@Julia Erstgeist haha. It sounds so surreal, that under normal circumstances I'd deduce that you were taking the piss. But knowing how insane this wokey-cokey stuff has been, I believe you.
Dark fate was pretty good I think you should give it a second thought...I know they just replaced John by dani😂 but still the action was good
Yep, Biehn was best actor Tech-Com soldier in futuristic war
@@haardikmanjani742 Dark Fate would've been a good movie for itself, as a new franchise. But not as a Terminator movie.
This is honestly what the Terminator series is all about and what it should be about. Real, brutal, cold, yet despite the odds, a hopeful aspect of it. These future war scenes topped with the 80s synth really sells it for me. I doubt we’ll ever get something like this from the Terminator series ever again. Terminator 1 & 2 to me are the only ones that exist in my mind
Nope. Ironically the future war should have been made back in the 1980s, it would have been better than what we got.
Up to '3' for me.
Well, 4 was cool as well imo, but... They should've sticked to the OG timeline.
Yup, it’s supposed to be a semi horror movie..gritty and cold
there is something, the terminator resistance game for PC has all of this.
Hideo Kojima: I like this movie, especially that Kyle Reese character...….
Was Snake based on Kyle Reese?
@@elliotjohnson9415 Like a cross between Kyle Reese and Snake Plissken.
@@elliotjohnson9415 The artwork for Snake was based on a still of Kyle Reese with his rifle and headset. lh4.googleusercontent.com/proxy/HcuvMrNvewH_hna2H0-R6QXbvBSxHjuohj5AfLoMW6m_KJo3DhhkwLEZ3ZM1cv0Ng4-2OVZ2qIhmjAS-gMFS5TNQ
But Snake was also based on Snake Plissken from Escape from New York: www.techtimes.com/articles/100732/20151028/john-carpenter-could-have-sued-konami-for-metal-gear-solid-similarities.htm
Ok, but how does it taste?
Best character of the whole saga, I think.
Kyle Reese has experienced nothing but pain, death and hardship all his life, and when he finally experiences happiness, he dies shortly afterwards. One of most tragic characters in all of fiction.
Sounds like my life
Maybe Kyle didn't travel to the past, possibly he was inside a Matrix-style holographic program and is awakened in the future again, with Connor.
More tragic than that woman resistance solider?
@@spartybrearly7221Tell me one thing you know about her besides the fact that she fought with Reese?
Gotta hand it to that gunner, getting whiplashed around like a hollow dummy filled with straw in the back seat there and still manages to get a few rounds off before being blown to bits. R.I.P. Straw Man.
Yeah, he need a serious back rub after that, a chiropractor or something.
Lmao

#StrawMan
For democracy
In the 80's, Hollywood use miniature models and stop-motion effects to make a SciFi thriller like this. They should've use em instead of relying of CGI too much.
Isn’t it crazy how you can watch this movie and still believe what you’re actually seeing whereas when you see the new stuff it just looks totally crappy and not intriguing to your imagination
Not so sure about that. Some of the green screens were pretty obvious here, and so was the stop motion animation. We were willing to accept it then due to the technical limitations, but there's no reason for us to accept it now.
@@zorkmid1083 Hollywood often makes it right, with a good balance of CGI+practical (I personally think locations should be real if possible, even if it costs a ton with practical/actual location). Green screens have not aged well, but an actor moving around in a clearly fake location made of CGI doesn't look good either).
@@jjrj8568 CGI is tricky, you can't just make it move, you have to make it move credibly. When it works though, it can be awesome.
CGI is a must when it come to Sci-fi because Arnold won't get younger
Strange how even though Kyle says they won the war in the end, most of the time the Resistance look like they are on the losing end.
War can be hell for both sides
That's highlighted really well in the novels.
Connor spending decades deciding who of his men and women live or die in order to gain ground over Skynet.
It all came full circle when his mother joined a raiding party that turned out to be an ambush.
John ordered her to stay out of it, but few people on Earth could tell the legendary Sarah Connor what to do.
Sarah tragically met her end there, on the battlefield.
The machines were formidable, but their military system had weak spots. 1. There could be no truces nor negotiation so, just as this gave the humans no respite, neither did Skynet's forces get one (presuming the humans kept pressing them); attrition and wear-and-tear thus went uncorrected. 2. Damaged Skynet equipment -- like the big tanklike thing that gets a track blown off here -- could not be easily repaired or recovered if it was in No Man's Land (which seems to include much of the country), so whatever got "killed" stayed killed. 3. Skynet's production facilities must be massive and complex -- and thus hard to to proliferate or replace. Certainly the exquisitely pure materials needed to build a Skynet soldier or vehicle must be in rapidly diminishing supply after 22 years of war (1997-2029). There are probably relatively few operable facilities left, so taking out any one of them cripples a big proportion of the force. 4. A Skynet army has a big footprint, both visually/audibly and in the IR spectrum; it's relatively easy to tell where one is and in what direction it's moving, and thus to guess its immed. objective and prepare accordingly. The Terminator infiltration units were created as army adjuncts, to partially counterbalance this lack of stealth. 5. Most important, in a top-down "society" like Skynet's, taking out the central command-control node could bring the whole thing down. Skynet's nodes are distributed, but there's a clear indication that a central "brain" is making decisions, planning strategy and missions, gathering resources -- Skynet isn't a collective entity like the Borg. Apparently, the collapse of the remaining central node happened co-incidentally with the humans' capture of the time displacement device -- b/c "[we humans] won the war". That means Skynet was destroyed; the war would not have ended otherwise.
@@roberthaworth8991 Kyle Reese only knew as much as what John Connor wanted him to know. For all we know Skynet was still active in a severely weakened state when Reese was sent back. Skynet may have a central brain but it undoubtedly has several backups ready to activate when the central core is shut down. Tech-Com managed to smash Skynet's Defense Grid surrounding it's primary Lab Complex in Los Angeles while another unit assaulted Skynet's Central Core in Cheyenne Mountain Colorado. This combined with several other coordinated offensives around the Globe effectively destroyed Skynet as a Military Power.
@@217adaptiveperspective true
Easiest day at Malevelon Creek
These brief scenes of the future war in The Terminator captured perfectly the desperation and hopelessness of a humanity fighting an unstopable machine. It's never been bettered in any of the subsequent movies. I really wish A Terminator movie centered on this struggle could be properly made
Salvation attempted it but it didn't capture the atmosphere displayed in the first 2 films.
One comic series (5) exist. Name is: Terminator: Burning Earth
@@SoldierOfFate Also, the T600 just threw Connor 3 times instead crushing his skull, neck, arms, legs, or just punching a hole in his torso. I fucking hated the movie for that and like 5 other things
@@SoldierOfFate wasn't Salvation supposed to have a different script?
@@taterater1052
I think that was actually a T-700, the prototype to what will become the T-800.
For those who played Terminator Resistance, this hits harder now 😢
Exactly.

*Salutes!*
Respect
RIP to both. This game is so underrated
@@rtgunzboi i did it
@@rtgunzboi i love you
God, after all these years I still feel really uncomfortable tension in this scene. What a great movie.
Just the thought of a building sized robot with instantaneous accuracy that vaporizes your insides and makes you explode is terrifying
I saw this movie when I was 7.
I was so terrified, because they're crawling around a giant machine with a plasma gun and I'm like how the hell are they gonna kill it with their rifles?
That's why this movie is a masterpiece!
Love how Kyle didnt hesitate even for a second before jumping into that car. If you encounter any human in the future war, hes an ally.
The driver was wearing a soldier uniform, and it has a gun on top...
Unless it’s an infiltrator.
Same for the people in the hiding spot when Reese and Ferro ducked the aerial hk
@@ripleyclarke4118 im glad someone else pointed that out I love the small detail
That's his sqaud-mate. Play Terminator Resistance; Annihilation Line DLC.
Our world must seem like paradise to Kyle.
There's a really good deleted scene that shows that, defo check it out if you haven't seen it already

@@canadavatar 2020 said hold my beer.

The way he started that car he looked relaxed and calm once the music came on till he had a flash back which ruined it.
This scene is pretty scary still. Just has that overall dark unsettling apocalyptic atmosphere to it. New films cannot compete!
I agree.
I love how they modeled Solid Snake after Reese, making this look like a perfect clip from a metal gear movie

@@aaronbreeds5132 na, the original cover for the 1st Metal Gear is essentially a still of Kyle Reese in the 'future war', just hand-painted
Who's here after finishing the Annihilation Line DLC?
I really love that they incorporated this flashback into the new DLC campaign for Terminator Resistance
Pov: youv'e played on malevelon creek...
This is so cool. The more time passes the better this film gets
Thats because after T2 the movies got worse and worse
@@davidfitzgerald4683 Honestly, T2 is a feel good summer action movie. Which makes it enjoyable to watch no doubt, but the original is actually in the genre of sci-fi horror. And its right in the middle of the 80s, and the soundtrack is fucking amazing. Just the dark grim vibes, like no, sorry kid Reese doesn't push her out of the way of that laser in the nick of time like every action movie in the world, she gets terminated with brutal efficiency.
The 80's truly was a golden age for films. I don't know what happened to cause films to decline in this type of quality, but almost every film that comes out nowadays will never be able to capture even a fraction of the depth of this scene.
@@davidfitzgerald4683 terminator genysis screwed the whole story line even T3
3:14 This moment when he wakes up and sees just a drill with relief on his face always gets me.
The pain and suffering in his eyes. What a hellish life he must’ve lived through.
Domin T. It is an auger, not a drill.
He had PTSD & was cultured shocked going into the past.
Letting him know he's screwed
isn't it funny though, douchebag Dr. Silverman asked Reese why he didn't bring back any ray-guns with him when he traveled across time... Doc they would be using phased plasma rifles in the future wars, not ray-guns, but close doc,very close...
Rest in peace Cpl Ferro and Cpl Evans
If you forget the "future war" aspect of that memory, rather than dreaming of it, Kyle is actually experiencing the *early stages of ptsd* here judging by the way he went to sleep looking at machine tracks that turned into a segway to his memory of him and his squad mate fighting a tank only to then wake up sweating, with the first instinct to load his weapon he was firmly holding close.
Just "TSD"... it's not "Post-Tramatic" because his war never ended. He takes it into the past, but he's still on a mission to ensure Sarah Connor's survival, still fighting, right until his last breath.
@@cykeok3525 In this scene, Kyle is allowed to have a proper sleep instead of sleeping with always one eye opened either on missions or in the resistance hideout. Yes it doesn't last long and yes it is near a drilling/construction site but for the first time his brain processed that nothing would try to kill him while he took that nap.
It is only in this moment of "peace" that his brain started processing all the backed-up emotional trauma as for that little time, it was not in survival mode.
Join the Helldivers
if Terminator resistance showed me anything, Ferro dying was accurate and if the dream had kept on going we would have seen Rivers pulling Reese out of the car...
Is anyone else blown away by just how *FUCKING GREAT* this still holds up today!?
Fun fact: The female soldier, Charlotte Ferro, is portrayed by Robin Antin, who went on to found The Pussycat Dolls!
I feel like I should get a phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range.
Just what you see, pal
I'm gona close early today
WRONG.
💥
We all should get a plasma rifle
In the 40 watt range!
Now thanks to the Terminator Resistance dlc Annihilation Line, this scene have a better context, (SPOILER ALERT) if we analyze, why the HK would shoot everywhere? Ok, it's a war, but we are talking about killing machines ruled (besides Skynet) by logic, even if that logic dictates jump to a bottomless pit. In the case of the Annihilation Line dlc, the HK's are shooting everywhere because they are hunting escaped human prisoners.
Fun fact: In Terminator Resistance video game, you as a player save Kyle from that burning car
Well now that Terminator Resistance has answered the question of how the flashback ended.
They sure don't make them like that anymore.
I agree
whose here after playing Terminator resistance DLC and a 3:09 don't worry Kyle, Jacob is coming to save you
I had to come here after beating the DLC. The attention to detail is awesome
@@stupid90able yup only 2 things the game did wrong, Reese doesn’t have his rifle entering the car and Evans doesn’t have a helmet but other than that it was phenomenal!! Loved the DLC!
@@stupid90able unless Ofcourse this is just a dream version of that and that’s why the details are off! Which I can accept too.
@@RepublicTrooper125Also slight retcon, Evans is shown in this scene with a Gen II plasma gun mounted on the car, when at the point in the game the dlc takes place, Mack hadn’t reprogrammed Violet plasma weapons yet. So the game changed it to be a minigun with regular ammunition.
F in the chat for Ferros and Evans
Farro and evans
2:20 "Ferro, no!"
"Shit!"
"Evan's, Reese is in trouble! Can you assist?"
hits different after playing Annihilation Line!
Came straight here after finishing the Terminator: Resistance Annihilation Line DLC
rip ferro and evan
One of my favorite scenes. Now, thanks to the Terminator: Resistance video game, we know what was actually going on in this bit. RIP, Farrow and Evans.
That game was a fantastic recreation. I love it.
Anyone watch this scene after Annihilation Line DLC?😎
Omg, yes! I’m ignoring all criticism this game is for the fans!
Loved the game and the new DLC. Seeing this scene happen in game was an added bonus.
This is still a masterpiece scene even after all those years.
Now compare it to the Terminator movies lately released..
Michael Biehn was a fantastic choice to play Kyle Reese. he really plays it up that he's been through hell and worse.
Me and the boys defending Malevelon creek
I was wondering if I was gonna see a Helldivers 2 comment.
Remember the creek brother.
Who came here after Annihilation line?
Brad Fiedel is truly a MUSIC GENIUS!!! This was the perfect music for specially for this masterful scene, its a MILESTONE in Science-Fiction, since the 80’s synth electronic music is so futuristic, and the future-like vibes are in every frame of the film, specially in the Future War sequences. Kyle Reese’s one of the most tragic characters in both movie & sci-fi history, because all he ever knew was war, pain, blood, death and suffering, with no time for sorrow nor remorse (check out Reese’s reaction after his right-hand female soldier is blown away by a plasma laser ray, that’s just brutal acting by Michael Biehn), to be cold-blooded, and yet, his sacrifice moving to 1984 from 2029 to procreate John Connor, meeting LOVE for the first time and making full circule through his death in this endless loop to win the WAR against MACHINES & Skynet, is an incredible storytelling achievement only James Cameron could pull it off. “The Terminator” is pure SCI-FI & FILMMAKING MASTERPIECE!!! A timeless CLASSIC!!
I love the humanity of this character. We can sense his vulnerability, his fear. But he is determined to survive, to fight, the machines may kill him, but it certainly won't be easy.
He cares about others, he is the perfect antithesis of Skynet and the HKs/terminators.
Michael Biehn was an amazing actor.
In Aliens, we thought he was just another marine. But the actor brings his humanity of his character by little touches, and finally reveals he cares a lot about others, trying to protect Newt and Ripley, shuting Hudson's loudmouth, and wisely taking the lead of operations.
We'll never see such an acting now.
Nowadays, we only have Chris Pratt and lookalikes: 7000 cals a days protein shakes bodybuilded bulls, trying to deliver poor lines in low quality movies. We can't see humans anymore in movies, we have... terminators, produced in factories. They're all the same and will never show emotions of vulnerability.
I miss 80's movies.
This is SOOOO much better after playing the Terminator annihilation DLC. You get to see why the Girl died, plus the Driver of the car is the template for Arnold’s Terminator design. Awesome.
No Arnold was Model 101, Evans was Model 102 and based on Franco Columbu (the infiltrator in the 2nd future flashback from the film)
@@1stdan81 Even though, according to his account of the events, Evans thought John Connor recognized him when he liberated him and the other pridoners... Perhaps reminded by the T800 101 from T2?
This Scene hits harder after playing the Annihilation Line line dlc for Terminator: Resistance
Yes...she was such a good girl.
And then Jacob Rivers saves his life from the fire! Lmao 🤣. Just beat the Annihilation Line DLC. Crazy how it all added up
I know. I can't watch it the same ever again knowing exactly what operational mission Kyle was on. All over of a picture of Sarah Connor, my question is how & why John knew to leave the picture, or a copy in the time capsule, who from alternative timeline told him too?
THAT is what Terminator is supposed to be horrific, dark and tragic. Not that Gym Bro Kyle Reese from Genisys and stupid jokes, like if 3 Billion people didn't die.
3:11 They didn't show the part where Jacob Rivers saves him.
Still the darkest version of the Terminator future war.
Star Wars meets Mad Max meets Metal Gear.
Rip ferro. (I know this old in 1984 at the time)
And RIP Evans.
Robin Antin as Ferro, she deserved her credits

Whoooo boy, do i feel like Kyle when playing Helldivers 2 against the Automatons

is this like the near of the end of the war?
@@HeroDai2448not long before they smashed the defence grid
Better than dark fate
Damn right!
Anything is better than Dark Fate
Dark fate is a big joke.
Genisys is still the worst terminator movie!
Batter than ALL of them.
Terminator resistance video did justice to teh T1 T2 we needa movie out of this video game
This is without a doubt one of my favorite scenes ever shot. From the smokey dark atmosphere, the skulls and devastation to the music and background effects, it's perfect.
This and the Tech-Noir slow-mo search scene
If only we can get an series like GoT or The Walking Dead for Terminator: Future War
GoT first's seasons right? And walking dead is trash
@@Karifi the first few seasons of Walking Dead were good then they went downhill
Sara Connor Chronicles was going to have part of the third season storyline in the future (season two ended on a cliffhanger: present day teenage John took a time displacement ride to future where nobody knew him but his father Kyle and uncle Derek were both still alive)--of course given the limitations of network TV vis-a-vis budget and tolerance for violence who knows how it would have gone.
NOPE NOPE NOPE MEGA NOPE
The Walking Dead is literally a Zombie Show... Something that should have died by now yet still continues.
Almost 40 years since this film came out. And it still looks amazing.
In terminator resistance you can actually be part of that mission and pull Reese from the car
Had to watch this scene after the latest Terminator Resistance DLC
i assumed it was her when i saw her with that helmet in the game... but watching her die in an 1:1 adaptation of this scene was painful... and whenever i watch this movie from now on i will think of her in the game at that scene....

Shows you how quick the machines will simply take out of existence. No hesitation, no pity, mercy, nothing.
@@tristanbackup2536 and no theatrics. No last words no dying in someone's arms, no epic music.... just a blink of an eye and they're gone... I like shocking death scenes.
This still looks insane to this day, considering the budget they were working with. There's a clear sense of colossal scale to the machines and the future war in shots like 2:07 that no other film in the series replicated quite as well, besides maybe T2's opening sequence.
Man special effects in the 80s are so much more convincing than their modern counterparts even though technology has progressed. I don’t know what it is but somethings missing in the newer films
To me it's simply a matter of effort and giving a crap. Back then, they had to really work on making the practical effects look even half way authentic due to how limited it is. Now? Filmmakers are freakin lazy, using CGI for pretty much everything to the point it feels cheap and generic.
I have nothing against CGI in movies when used right, but that's the problem. It's not. There's no real heart put into them anymore. They're just there to make things look shiny and eye appealing, but what good is that if the rest of the movie is cheap and shallow?
Soul misses.... Truth misses
@@Jonathan83XYeah, whenever anyone says that modern CGI/volume effects look better than older ones, especially ones in a meticulous film like T1, I say "hold the phone!" lol Like, they CGI virtually everything now to the point that nothing looks real. And volume effects are probably even worse with large empty spaces that look too shiny and clean, the total opposite of feeling lived in.
@@Jonathan83X Artistic design seems to be a lost art. Now sfx artists only know one technique - make everything green screen cgi, in the clip they used many different techniques, real practical effect, background painting, etc. But they blend together aestetically perfectly.
"He glanced over his shoulder at the surviving member of his twelve-man squad: Corporal Ferro, a grim, gaunt, female sapper. Fifteen last Tuesday and armed to the fucking teeth. She was staying close to Reese, anchored to her squad leader like a shadow."
2:21 I'm gonna pretend that girl is Dani from Dark Fate. That's the fate she likely will meet if she's 'gonna stand and fight'
GOoNNa StAAHn aNn FAhHitTtt!!!1!!
Ahh the idiot brigade speaks.
travis star.
Actually, she did a great job. Just look at her - she sacrificed herself for humanity. And, yep, she succeeded, her 'nade blew up that horrible machine.
Her name is unknown. Her deed is immortal.
Everytime I watch That 70s Show, I keep thinking "The hell were they thinking taking a Jackie look alike and making her the 'new john conner' "
When I was playing Terminator Resistance - Annihilation Line, as soon as I saw Kyle Reese with that Can Grenade. I knew. I wasn't ready. Damn.
Ferro and Evans, you will be missed
Rest In Peace Fiero
When I saw this part 1:05 in the theater, I thought I felt a tear coming out because I just don't see any Sci-Fi like this anymore. That synthesized soundtrack was making me feel like I was a kid again playing Sega genesis or even Terminator at the Arcade with friends. Which is why I liked T2 when I was a kid and saw it before the first film. John Connor was friends with a Terminator. I saw both in the theater within the last few years and I think I've grown to love The Terminator more. I liked Star Wars when I was a kid too, but Terminator just seemed so much cooler.
after finishing the Terminator: Resistance Annihilation Line DLC
How I feel anytime I play hell divers in malevolent creek
I'm here because of the new Terminator Resistance DLC.
RIP Ferro & Evens
Came here for Terminator resistance Annihilation line game ending
The transition from the caterpillar tread of the construction crane to the tread of the giant hunter-killer along with the sound effect changing to crunchy human skulls still holds up 40 years later as one of the best moments of any dystopian science fiction movie.
It also correctly shows what a guerilla war in a post nuclear apocalypse would look like. If you look at the scenes in Terminator Genisys, the people and the environment are just too clean for that. In this environment you have lots of ruins and dirty, thin people. The people would be thin due to lack of food and dirty due to lack of water.
I’m sad Cameron decided to went crazy with Avatar instead of Terminator
Future landscape looks similar to LV426 in ALIENS.
Both done by James Cameron
@@Ogiv and both film IMO kicked ass
Probably a scrap yard somewhere near LA.
It do!!!❤
Also notice how in Aliens, Bishop is a 'Hyperdyne' model android? Sound similar to anything?
I was hoping for a terminator movie that would be like Reese's flashbacks. Basically a Platoon or Saving Private Ryan but with machines and human going at it.
There will never be another movie like this again... at least from today's standards... closest thing is Bladerunner 2049
