Fun fact: In 2003, the American Film Institute named the Terminator as both one of the greatest villains AND one of the greatest heroes in movie history.
@@davewolf6256 I would think it being called the american film institute would give it some clout as america makes the biggest, most expensive movies out of anyone worldwide.
If you've not seen it, you should look up Corridor Digital's video about the special effects and their attempt to recreate the scene where the T1000 walks through the gate. It's really fascinating stuff.
Such a smart distraction cause I know my gut response would be to try and catch it. Similar move was used in the first episode of the animated Invincible show. Made me think of Sarah right away haha
Don't see it often in films, but it is a very good tactic. Instincts usually take over and the person will catch or try to catch what is thrown to them.
In professional combat, we call that a "Feint" ... it's a move to distract ones opponent, and draw their resources away from the real attack. Notice he "Raises his hands" to catch the keys that probably "wouldn't have actually hit him" ... exposing the ribs to the stick
Honestly, I have never seen anyone watch both Terminator 1 & 2 and not see immediately who is trying to protect & who is trying to kill. Mind boggling. LOL
Well Mary said it herself. If it had been a love story she would have picked up in it immediately but can be waay off otherwise. The fact that she made the exact same mistake as the first one, thinking that both were killers and not a protector, is amusing though.
The scene of Sarah trying to kill Miles is actually genius. Sarah has experienced being hunted by someone she doesn't know for doing things she didn't even know she was going to do, so in her eyes being condemned to death makes no sense to her. And now she's in that exact position again, except this time SHE is the one hunting a presently innocent and oblivious person, and she realized that JUST before it was too late. Good storytelling.
"You're judging me on things I haven't even done yet" is almost a direct quote shared by Miles and Sarah from the previous movie. It really drives home the parallel for those who remember the first movie.
@@Blynat No, they have the surveillance tapes of Arnold attacking the precinct. They just think he's an unknown suspect who vanished after the attack. Dr. Silberman does think she tried to blow-up a computer factory, though, because she 100% did.
@@Haegemon I disliked it, intensely, because the abandoned, the "No Fate but the one we make for ourselves," idea. That was the heart of both of the first films, and the loss of it robbed the human heroes of agency.
@@thomashiggins9320 There was a comic sequel to this movie before the third movie came out. They establish Judgement Day was still coming because the arm caught in the gears was left behind. T3 should have used that idea. That Judgement Day hadn't been stopped because Cyberdyne found the arm Arnie tore off in this movie.
Wow, Mary saying that "She is The Terminator now" had so much meaning. I´ve seen this movie many times and haven´t realized that in that moment Sarah was becoming the thing that she feared the most, making that scene even having more depth.
Watch the scene again and notice how the background music is subtly playing the same cues for Sarah at that moment as were used earlier during the initial appearances of the two Terminators- she is now a Terminator indeed!
Yeah. Her trauma and fear turned her into the monster, killing an innocent to win the future war. That's why she's so cold to her son, so logical about how he shouldn't have rescued her. She is shedding her humanity and turning herself into a machine.
He is fantastic in The X-Files and was unfairly trashed by fans who mistakingly thought he would replace Mulder. Check out the episode Redrum for an awesome T2 reunion.
The attention to detail in this movie is phenomenal. My favorite is when the T-1000 copies the psych ward security guard. When the actual guard knocks on the door to signal there’s a “thump” sound, but when the T-1000 copy knocks it’s the sound of metal on glass lol
Arnold is such a sneaky good actor: you kept mentioning how funny he was, and I don’t think many other actors could inject as much humor and charisma into a character that is a literal robot without breaking the movie’s believability. He should get more credit for it in my opinion. He’s obviously not suited for Broadway or Shakespeare but Arnold has his own kind of chops.
He's a cyborg though - if it were just the metal terminator with Arnie's voice it wouldn't work the same. Plus the terminators are after all infiltration units, it stands to reason that they should at least be passably good at getting by.
19:06 I just love that effect. And the little detail that the gun gets stuck is just so nice. A lesser movie wouldn't have thought of that. It's the little things that add realism to the unreal.
@@yehudahecht1520 He absolutely did. "Don't ask"; he was willing to overlook the moral questions around his work in order to play with CyberDyne's toys. Very direct parallels to, as Sarah mentioned, the hydrogen bomb or weaponry in general, and the overall willingness of humanity to pursue technological ends without consideration for their impacts on social well-being (hi, Facebook! Assisted in any more genocides today? Not for lack of trying, I'm sure). "Now I am become Death, destroyer of worlds" was not a quote chosen by Oppenheimer for celebratory purposes; it was a confession, an apology, and a warning.
I love how Sarah was just checking John for injuries, but he thought she was going to hug him. Aw, the little dude just wanted a hug from Mom. I understand both of their points of view, though. Sarah is not insane, of course, but she is pretty messed up emotionally, and so is he. Along the way, she lost touch with much of her humanity, and I love even more how John helped her get it back later. She never completely lost it, though, because she couldn't make herself kill Dyson, despite being so determined to do it in order to save the whole world.
He was programmed to deliver those words - "come with me if you want to live" - specifically BECAUSE it was hoped she'd recognize that Kyle had said exactly that when HE came to protect/rescue her.
@@PatrickRyan147 Seeing has John stated in the movie that Sarah told him about the future and him being a great leader destined to lead man against the machines it stands to reason that she would of told him about what Reese told her to try to convince her of his intentions. So sorry I have to call BS on your statement calling BS here.
I've cried several times at this movie at the end! It just shows you how much of a masterpiece this movie is that it can make you cry at the death of a cyborg.
Fun Fact: The mirror scene and the scene where the T-1000 (Liquid Terminator) imitated Sarah Connors look, that was actually the actor Linda Hamilton’s twin sister, Leslie Hamilton. Another pair of twins was the cop that got stabbed through the eye Sadly Leslie Hamilton passed away last year…… RIP :(
This is one of my favorite movies, but somehow I didn't find out that Linda Hamilton had a twin until not that long ago. I just always assumed it was effects. I knew that guard guy was a twin. They've been in stuff together.
The red head cop twins will show up together in Good Morning Vietnam. They are Military Intelligence officers hacking and slashing the news to keep the truth from soldiers in the field.
She's also in Near Dark with Bill Paxton and Lance Henrikson - directed by Cameron's short term wife Kathryn Bigelow of 'Hurt Locker' and 'Zero Dark Thirty' fame.
Linda got into shape by working out alongside Arnie basically everyday for this role, it actually inspired a lot of young women to get some of that swole going!
I just want to point out that in the first movie, Dr. Silberman didn't witness a thing. He didn't even see the face of the T-800. He got a beep from his beeper just when he was walking out the door of the police station and looked down at it at the same time as the T-800 was walking in the door. That's why he's still alive. He left the police station literally seconds before the massacre commenced. Imagine finding out you were that lucky, but also realizing you can't help solve the murders of your colleagues because you saw nothing and know nothing. Dr. Silberman went through some shit!
Also, even had he been in the station and somehow survived, all he would have seen is a 6’2” muscular man with shades. I believe the only person other than Sarah and Kyle who even see part of his robotic face is the semi truck driver before Arnold took it.
Robert Patrick, the T1000, trained himself to be able to sprint as fast as he could while only breathing through his nose, as well as rapid fire a handgun without blinking
T2 (all it's known by, for obvious reasons) was a COLOSSAL hit back in the 90's. Hard to explain how much everyone loved that film - put all others to shame at that time and for some time to come. One of the best-loved movies (action or regardless of genre) of all times.
I love that, John sent him back and told him to say that right after he sent neck his father, knowing he was sending his father to die and that those words would be significant to his mother
@@17thknight I don't think the two "send-backs" occurred in the same timeline. Reese got sent back in the first one, altering the past and changing the future. In the new future, SkyNet sends back the T1000 and Connor has access to a captured T800 to send back as a protector. This, in turn, creates another new future. John would still know from Sarah's tapes what Reese said to her, though, and hence would program the T800 with the only words that could possibly earn even a little of Sarah's trust. Time-travel gets trippy real fast, especially when you factor in that time may not be an objective phenomenon at all, but merely a product of the limitations of four-dimensional human perception. "Time is a flat circle", as Matthew McConaughey put it in True Detective.
@@Nutrient-Gold Or the fact that the security guard Sarah tells to get out of the the car at the hospital is played by the same actor the original T-800 tells to get out of the big rig truck at the climax of the original movie. It mat have even been the same character years later with a different job
The extended edition included a scene where Dyson's wife asks why he's working on a computer so much when his kids need their father. He shows her a new processor he's working on, modeled after the first Terminator's chip. His rationalization was to build a processor that could replace human error. No more hung over pilots putting airline passengers at risk. He gestures to the processor he's building and says, "Meet the pilot." He wasn't considering the military applications for his technology, only the lives that would be saved if we removed human error.
Also, the extended edition shows that the T-1000 after being shattered in the foundry, is having trouble keeping himself together right. As he walks, his hand sticks to a railing and changes to match the color of the railing. THAT is how John knew that the T1000 morphed into Sarah. After (real Sarah) said "Get out of the way John", John looks down, and see's the T-1000's feet molding into the grating of the floor, so he yells "SHOOT" and moves
I lived in California (Bay Area) when they made this Movie. Most of the action scenes were shot in Fremont CA. They blew up that building there and the highway scenes were filmed there. I remember the huge crowds of people watching them make it. They freeways had big stretches that were closed down for many hours just to make the movie. We got advance notice of the filming on the local news. I saw the building blow up from a distance. All of it was really cool. --- I thought you might find this interesting.
It's actually fun to see people watch this now because they haven't had the huge reveal spoiled by trailers. All of us back in the day went into the movie knowing that Arnold was actually the protector in this one.
I'm curious as to which movie she is considering as the conclusion of the trilogy. Technically, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines was made as the sequel but Terminator: Dark Fate is *Carmeron's* sequel and they completely disregard the events of the other Terminator movies that came after Terminator 2.
@@PhailedGamer dark fate isn't Cameron's sequel. He just got paid a fuck load of $$$ to promote it & slap his name on the credits! Its absolute garbage.
None of the sequels after T2 are worthy of the Terminator name. Some of them are (barely) TV movie of the week worthy. I've just been in disbelief they let that happen. The first two just tower over everything else with the Terminator name on it.
The greatest sequel of all time, this movie has everything that surpass the original. And I'm still shed a tear watching the ending, John really consider him a "father" that he never had. Even Sarah concluded: "Of all the would-be fathers who came and went over the years, this thing, this machine, was the only one who measured up. In an insane world, it was the sanest choice."
I generally don't include the Star Wars or LoTR trilogies in 'best sequel' debates as they were written essentially as one continuous story. But, with those two aside, then I think T2, Aliens, and Godfather 2 r proby the best sequels ever. Not necessarily in that order... Road Warrior was also good. Far better than its original
"Sarah on Sarah is pretty hot actually." 😅 Linda Hamilton actually has a twin sister that they used in the movie for the face off and some mirror shots (more in the director's cut). The first security guard in the asylum was a twin as well, which is how they achieved the face to face kill. They are also in the hilarious Gremlins 2.
My favourite trick of this movie is pretending that a pane of clear glass is a mirror and having the actor playing their own reflection, while the twin plays the real one.
I'd add that when he started trying to break into making movies his special effects demo was a woman in an exoskeleton fighting a robot. Sound familiar?
Fun fact: OJ Simpson was originally suppose to be the Terminator in the movies but the director didn’t go through with the idea cause he said there’s no way people could take him seriously as a intimidating killer Oh boy….. lol
Robert Patrick needs more credit for this movie. The guy went to pretty insane levels training to be the T-1000. He learned to sprint without showing signs of breathing, reload a gun without looking with either hand, fire equally fast with both hands, and fire a gun without blinking. He also trained to sprint. In the mall scene where he runs after John on his motorbike, Robert actually caught up to him on the first take. And when the car pulling the bike was told to speed up for take 2, he almost caught them again.
When John takes off on the minibike and the second terminator chases him they had to keep redoing the scene because Robert Patrick would run so fast he kept catching up to John
"Imagine having that nightmare all the time." -Mary "Imagine?!" -anyone who lived through the cold war -anyone else who saw T2 when it came out ... Don't worry, everything is going to be alright.
If you were lucky, you could ignore it. It not... I think everyone knew what the role in a war my country had in case of a conventional war with the Russians. We were meant to be a roadblock to slow them down. I don't remember how old I was, around 10-15 I would guess when I realized I had no desire to survive a nuclear war. So I decided the when the alarm came, I would go as close as possible to one of the US bases in the area. As far as I know it had/has one of the NATO defence centres underneath. A sure priority target. The closer I was I thought, the better. A 10-15 year old thought that.
All those years of training, all those years of letting the memories settle, all those years of being dangerous, and in a few seconds she starts panicking and running. That is how impressive the Terminator was on her. Let alone that after she rounded the corner she could hear her son saying "Mom, wait", and knowing that the Terminator can imitate voices
@@shawbros I don't remember exactly how it goes anymore, but he shows up in The Sarah Connor Chronicles (played by a different actor). He references that moment in T2 and appears to be a believer. And a bit crazy if I remember correctly.
Linda Hamilton has a twin sister who also appears in these movies. That's how they can do practical effects like having a real Sarah and a fake Sarah in the same frame (i.e. Sarah on Sarah action), or Sarah and her mirror image (without a camera showing in the mirror, because there *is* no mirror).
They rarely make characters like Sarah anymore, they don't even get close in modern sci-fi. She earns every single win she gets and she is very believable as a character. And in regards to the actress, every time I watch this movie I am in awe at how good she is at acting.
@@liamnehren1054Ripley is even better imo. Because while Sarah becomes a leader (and a great one) there was no one else to supersede. Ripley in a group of women and men rose above everyone and commanded leadership amongst her peers.
First time I’ve seen someone manage to avoid the spoilers that Arnie is the good guy this time around. But I personally prefer the extended cut as there’s some extra character beats that make the film make more sense.
First time?! Many young reactors this past year alone are on TH-cam with watching T2 with the surprise reveal not surprised it's really cool to witness
I just love it that Arnie is the protector in this movie! For some reason, this movie reminds me of Leon The Professional. A professional killer who protects a child. Both movies has this kind of dorky killer who does the right thing, without really understanding why.
A little trivia for you, Mary... the scene where Robert Patrick is chasing John on the motorbike, in the parking garage, had to be reshot several times, because Robert kept catching John! He was a college track star and was really that fast!
Fun fact: In the final fight where the T-1000 mimiks Sarah, it's no blue screen or other cut-in effect. It is actually Linda Hamilton's twin playing the T-1000 in that scene.
Fun Fact: It takes two hands to pilot a helicopter, so when the T-1000 is flying the helicopter and shooting at Team Connor, if you look closely, he has three arms.
If they'd had a little more tech in the day, they could have really played with the T1000's shape-shifting. He's only humanoid for blending purposes, and the human form isn't especially combat-effective (as demonstrated by the terrifying state of current autonomous weapons, which we should all join Oxfam in keeping a check on if we don't want to live this movie for real).
When he reloads he actually has four, 'cause it also takes two arms/hands to do that. But yes in the side shots you can clearly see he has two left arms.
@@michaelccozens Also his ability to be different people isn't used to its fullest potential. Why would he ever revert to the policeman after the chase begins? The T-1000 would logically try to be different people in order to trick and sneak up on its prey. The only reason it keeps turning into Robert is because a film needs a villain that the audience can recognize
@@trequor And because the police shape gives him access to weapons, vehicles and crime scenes, its the most convenient shape he has, and uses it to his advantage in every interaction with other people.
@@trequor uh because hes smart enough to realize to keep track of sarah conner his best bet is the police for their entire database. Work smarter not harder.
Linda Hamilton's transformation in this movie is totally believable. "You must become stronger than you imagine possible, or I will never be." She took that to heart!!
Watch the extended Special Edition with Kyle Reese in it, more Sarah scenes, more scenes of the Terminator learning, Dyson's family, the T1000 breaking down and more
Yeah. I was a bit disappointed for her to be watching the theatrical version for her first time. In all fairness, we all born before 2000 saw the theatrical version in our first experience.
It’s Christmas so I’m calling you Merry Cheery for this reaction. Thanks Merry. I’ve been thoroughly entertained with your reaction videos and I feel that you have given us many happy, sad, heartfelt moments with your kindness and compassion throughout this year. My favourite one this year was Gran Torino. The character development showing us all that what we see is often not what lies just beneath the surface. The stunning finale to this masterpiece was a stark reminder that what my mom said was true. Don’t judge a book by its cover and also don’t judge a man until you walk a mile in his shoes. Happy Hollidays Merry. You are a beautiful spirit.
When Robert Patrick (T1000) went in for his interview, he did nothing but stare at the casting director with a creepy blank expression on his face, and didn't say a word.
It's amazing how a film can be perceived a totally different way based on a lack of current marketing. For those of us who saw the original run in theatres, we came in knowing Arnold was the good guy because the advertising made that very clear. All the millennials/zillenials watching this film now are genuinely surprised when Arnold is revealed to be the hero, which I think adds another dimension of awesomeness to it.
yea, the biggest bone in the body that will shatter and slash you and the biggest artery, on top of being a small target to hit he’s a robot tho so he be vibing
My favourite film. I still have the VHS from back in the day. The nuclear bomb dream scene still haunts me to this day. I also quote this film on a daily basis
Fun piece of trivia: There are two sets of twins in this movie, so think back on any scenes where they might've used screen trickery to duplicate someone. Have fun =D
A little note here: The actor who played Miles Bennett Dyson, had a near death experience in his past. This really helped him acting the pain when he get shot by Linda Hamilton and the death scene during the infiltration if Cyberdyne. Actor Joe Morton really used his experience to his advantage here.
Undoubtedly one of the greatest sequels ever. Seeing the CGI in movie theatres in 1991 it blew people's minds, including mine. Remember this is two years before Jurassic Park blew our minds again. :)
The thing is, between the time of the first and second film, Arnold became the biggest star on the planet, and played so many hero roles that they couldn’t have him be the evil Terminator again. This film is definitely the high point of his career.
Terminator 2 rightfully got 4 academy awards at the Oscars....... VFX, Make Up, Sound effects editing & Sound mixing. And Terminator 2 wrongfully robbed of 2 awards..... Cinematography & Editing.
Mary, this movie was the one that started the next evolution of special effects, CGI and audio in movies that we've become accustomed to thanks to James Cameron
Jurassic Park was also pretty ground breaking too with it's use of CGI and helped pave the way. Though there was also some animatronic stuff in JP too.
When this movie came out the commercials announced the fact that Arnold was now the good guy. So everyone going to the movie knew that before it started. Almost no one was surprised when he ended up protecting the kid. It's only today that young people are surprised by it because they never saw the old commercials.
I was on a Navy ship with my Marine Air squadron in the west pacific when this movie came out so I read the novelization. I didn't know the plot twist since I couldn't watch television so I was one of the few that didn't have the story spoiled.
Jingle all The Way... i mean how many times have you seen Arnold punching a reindeer Also haven't seen the film in ages but i remember the 6th Day had really fun sci fi B movie plot
"He's learned so much about the humans." That's why he's doing what he's doing. What always gets me is, "I know now why you cry, but it is something I could never do." 😭😭😭 He couldn't empathize with John emotionally, but he now understood why it was important to keep him alive.
It's so cool how you care for the machine that literally has no facial expressions that indicate pain, but as the audience we are heartbroken by the Terminator's death.
When this movie first came out, the ongoing joke me and all my friends shared was "Is that a Terminator disguised as an L.A. police officer, or an L.A. police officer disguised as a Terminator?"
The best way to enjoy this saga is to watch the first movie, then the director's cut of the second one with the happy ending, and forget that the others even exist.
Terminator 2 is best sequel…..usually sequel movies is step back after every first….Best Action & cinematography and of course the T1000 is best Villian
@@Ardi_0 Hmmmm. There are literally only a few sequels that are arguably better than their original counterparts. Let's see... The Empire Strikes Back, Aliens, T2:Judgement Day, The Godfather 2, The Dark Knight, LOTR: The Two Towers, Avengers Infinity War (yes, Infinity War..Endgame was overrated)......Help me out here......I'm drawing a blank........what other sequels were better than the original? This is all I got. Very curious to see what you think had better sequels?
I'm probably the only person in the world to say this but I enjoy the majority of sequels cause I don't compare them to the originals (same with spin offs, remakes, reboots etc), sure sequels have issues but the originals do too.
these 2 movies, T1 & T2 show the advancement in computer special effects the 'morphing' technology that suddenly was seen in a lot of movies really started here
You should consider stopping with this one or at least be aware Cameron wasn't involved with any of the other terminator films. This ending, as per Cameron's intentions, is pretty definitive. The only reason more were made was because the studio didn't want to give up a cash cow. The sequels range from sloppy continuations to attempted reboots.
Terminator 2 - Judgement Day is one of the greatest action movie ever made. Because it has amazig action sequences, great characters, a great story AND it has a true message, true thoughts about what makes us humans, what makes us more than just flesh and bones.

Watch the scene again and notice how the background music is subtly playing the same cues for Sarah at that moment as were used earlier during the initial appearances of the two Terminators- she is now a Terminator indeed!
Fun fact that's Linda Hamiltons identical Twin sister playing the Terminator in that scene.
They also play the same music cue from when Arnold was about to shoot the Black guy earlier on in the film.
@@Aaron-io8vw Mary's quote is about the scene where Sarah almost murders Dyson, not the two-Sarah scene in the factory (with Linda's twin).
Yeah. Her trauma and fear turned her into the monster, killing an innocent to win the future war. That's why she's so cold to her son, so logical about how he shouldn't have rescued her. She is shedding her humanity and turning herself into a machine.
"I know now why you cry...but it's something I can never do." That line destroys me every time.

Robert Patrick who played the T1000 deserves a lot of credit. An amazing actor, and the greatest villain ever in this film.
He is fantastic in The X-Files and was unfairly trashed by fans who mistakingly thought he would replace Mulder. Check out the episode Redrum for an awesome T2 reunion.
@@CrowTRobot @ Peter Lenham He was great also in THE UNIT. That show was criminally underappreciated.
@@CrowTRobot Yes he was excellent in X Files. Joe Morton was excellent too in that episode.
@@tiredoffools8929 Yes, I loved The Unit!
He trained with Israeli Special Forces in order to shoot quickly one-handed while not blinking... ever.
The attention to detail in this movie is phenomenal.
My favorite is when the T-1000 copies the psych ward security guard. When the actual guard knocks on the door to signal there’s a “thump” sound, but when the T-1000 copy knocks it’s the sound of metal on glass lol
fuck, I never noticed that
Please continue the Cameron/Schwarzenegger dream team with True Lies.
yes
Yup
oh yeah!
Yep
I'll take that over the does-not-really-exist 3rd Terminator movie. Any day.
You know you're in trouble when Robert Patrick is running after you after having his eyes trained not to blink 😂😂😂😂😂
And not huffing and puffing
Arnold is such a sneaky good actor: you kept mentioning how funny he was, and I don’t think many other actors could inject as much humor and charisma into a character that is a literal robot without breaking the movie’s believability. He should get more credit for it in my opinion. He’s obviously not suited for Broadway or Shakespeare but Arnold has his own kind of chops.
I know! He was perfect for this role, because he's got kind of underrated comic timing as well, which helped the funny beats in this movie so much.
I dunno. You see his Hamlet in Last Action Hero and it's pretty good!
He's a cyborg though - if it were just the metal terminator with Arnie's voice it wouldn't work the same.
Plus the terminators are after all infiltration units, it stands to reason that they should at least be passably good at getting by.
Well-put. He's not exactly Sir Ian McKellen, but there's a good reason Arnold was such a superstar.
Lot of other people have played Terminators. And no others have dry wit. Even Carl in the latest one… Arnold’s the first and best.
19:06 I just love that effect. And the little detail that the gun gets stuck is just so nice. A lesser movie wouldn't have thought of that. It's the little things that add realism to the unreal.
Not only did Miles give his life to try to right his wrongs. He also did his best to give the cops who shot him up time to get away from the blast.
Dyson doesn't always get the hero credit he deserves
He didn't have any _wrongs._ He had no idea that his research would lead to a nuclear holocaust. He wasn't a criminal or a killer, he was a scientist.
@@yehudahecht1520 Exactly.
and also he helped justice league to track the mother box. legend
@@yehudahecht1520 He absolutely did. "Don't ask"; he was willing to overlook the moral questions around his work in order to play with CyberDyne's toys. Very direct parallels to, as Sarah mentioned, the hydrogen bomb or weaponry in general, and the overall willingness of humanity to pursue technological ends without consideration for their impacts on social well-being (hi, Facebook! Assisted in any more genocides today? Not for lack of trying, I'm sure). "Now I am become Death, destroyer of worlds" was not a quote chosen by Oppenheimer for celebratory purposes; it was a confession, an apology, and a warning.
I love how Sarah was just checking John for injuries, but he thought she was going to hug him. Aw, the little dude just wanted a hug from Mom. I understand both of their points of view, though. Sarah is not insane, of course, but she is pretty messed up emotionally, and so is he. Along the way, she lost touch with much of her humanity, and I love even more how John helped her get it back later. She never completely lost it, though, because she couldn't make herself kill Dyson, despite being so determined to do it in order to save the whole world.
He was programmed to deliver those words - "come with me if you want to live" - specifically BECAUSE it was hoped she'd recognize that Kyle had said exactly that when HE came to protect/rescue her.
that makes more sense.
@@PatrickRyan147 Seeing has John stated in the movie that Sarah told him about the future and him being a great leader destined to lead man against the machines it stands to reason that she would of told him about what Reese told her to try to convince her of his intentions. So sorry I have to call BS on your statement calling BS here.
@@PatrickRyan147 Because his mom told him? Is it really that big a stretch?
She recorded tapes for him to hear, did you not see Terminator Salvation?
@@DavidLopez-qi8hb
She literally records tapes at the end of The Terminator :D
I've cried several times at this movie at the end! It just shows you how much of a masterpiece this movie is that it can make you cry at the death of a cyborg.
It gets you because despite being a machine, that terminator was a hero, and the closest thing to a father John ever had.
Fun Fact: The mirror scene and the scene where the T-1000 (Liquid Terminator) imitated Sarah Connors look, that was actually the actor Linda Hamilton’s twin sister, Leslie Hamilton. Another pair of twins was the cop that got stabbed through the eye
Sadly Leslie Hamilton passed away last year…… RIP :(
Also in the nightmare sequence.
This is one of my favorite movies, but somehow I didn't find out that Linda Hamilton had a twin until not that long ago. I just always assumed it was effects. I knew that guard guy was a twin. They've been in stuff together.
Actress*
The red head cop twins will show up together in Good Morning Vietnam. They are Military Intelligence officers hacking and slashing the news to keep the truth from soldiers in the field.
Y'know, when Arnie shoots up the cops at Cyberdyne nobody mentions that Arnie's Casualty Counter allows for fractional casualties.
I guess he's a fan of the Princess bride
It would be a universal counter used for different modes
@@4Kandlez It's still amusing. And no one comments on it.
John's foster mother was in Aliens as Vasquez!
She was also the Irish immigrant mother in Titanic!
@@BillyButcher90 Ah! I must keep an eye out if I ever get around to watching it
@@fan-i-am Definitely watch it. I can't remember a James Cameron directed film that didn't deliver the goods.
Just as one of the main cops at the police station in Terminator was Bishop in Aliens.
She's also in Near Dark with Bill Paxton and Lance Henrikson - directed by Cameron's short term wife Kathryn Bigelow of 'Hurt Locker' and 'Zero Dark Thirty' fame.
Doesn't make me cry: I'll never let go, Jack.
Will always make me cry: There's one more chip.
Linda got into shape by working out alongside Arnie basically everyday for this role, it actually inspired a lot of young women to get some of that swole going!
I just want to point out that in the first movie, Dr. Silberman didn't witness a thing. He didn't even see the face of the T-800. He got a beep from his beeper just when he was walking out the door of the police station and looked down at it at the same time as the T-800 was walking in the door. That's why he's still alive. He left the police station literally seconds before the massacre commenced. Imagine finding out you were that lucky, but also realizing you can't help solve the murders of your colleagues because you saw nothing and know nothing. Dr. Silberman went through some shit!
Also, even had he been in the station and somehow survived, all he would have seen is a 6’2” muscular man with shades. I believe the only person other than Sarah and Kyle who even see part of his robotic face is the semi truck driver before Arnold took it.
Robert Patrick, the T1000, trained himself to be able to sprint as fast as he could while only breathing through his nose, as well as rapid fire a handgun without blinking
They had to do several takes of him chasing the motorbike, because of his training he kept catching up to it.
T2 (all it's known by, for obvious reasons) was a COLOSSAL hit back in the 90's.
Hard to explain how much everyone loved that film - put all others to shame at that time and for some time to come.
One of the best-loved movies (action or regardless of genre) of all times.
"Come with me if you want to live" was the exact same line that Kyle Reese told Sarah Connor in the first movie when he met her.
I love that, John sent him back and told him to say that right after he sent neck his father, knowing he was sending his father to die and that those words would be significant to his mother
@@17thknight I don't think the two "send-backs" occurred in the same timeline. Reese got sent back in the first one, altering the past and changing the future. In the new future, SkyNet sends back the T1000 and Connor has access to a captured T800 to send back as a protector. This, in turn, creates another new future. John would still know from Sarah's tapes what Reese said to her, though, and hence would program the T800 with the only words that could possibly earn even a little of Sarah's trust.
Time-travel gets trippy real fast, especially when you factor in that time may not be an objective phenomenon at all, but merely a product of the limitations of four-dimensional human perception. "Time is a flat circle", as Matthew McConaughey put it in True Detective.
Quite a few parrells from the movies for instance the T1000 saying "Get out" and similar homage. All good stuff.
@@Nutrient-Gold Or the fact that the security guard Sarah tells to get out of the the car at the hospital is played by the same actor the original T-800 tells to get out of the big rig truck at the climax of the original movie. It mat have even been the same character years later with a different job
I read somewhere that it was resistance spy code in the future.
The special FX was so advanced. Still looks amazing 30 years later.
The extended edition included a scene where Dyson's wife asks why he's working on a computer so much when his kids need their father. He shows her a new processor he's working on, modeled after the first Terminator's chip.
His rationalization was to build a processor that could replace human error. No more hung over pilots putting airline passengers at risk. He gestures to the processor he's building and says, "Meet the pilot."
He wasn't considering the military applications for his technology, only the lives that would be saved if we removed human error.
Also, the extended edition shows that the T-1000 after being shattered in the foundry, is having trouble keeping himself together right. As he walks, his hand sticks to a railing and changes to match the color of the railing. THAT is how John knew that the T1000 morphed into Sarah. After (real Sarah) said "Get out of the way John", John looks down, and see's the T-1000's feet molding into the grating of the floor, so he yells "SHOOT" and moves
I lived in California (Bay Area) when they made this Movie. Most of the action scenes were shot in Fremont CA. They blew up that building there and the highway scenes were filmed there. I remember the huge crowds of people watching them make it. They freeways had big stretches that were closed down for many hours just to make the movie. We got advance notice of the filming on the local news. I saw the building blow up from a distance. All of it was really cool. --- I thought you might find this interesting.
It's actually fun to see people watch this now because they haven't had the huge reveal spoiled by trailers. All of us back in the day went into the movie knowing that Arnold was actually the protector in this one.
I actually remember that differently: everybody knew there would be 2 terminator and one was good but nobody knew which one until the mall scene.
And it would not be the last time that the trailers spoil the hell out of the terminator movies.
@@andreabruson5558 That is what James Cameron intended but they revealed it in the trailers.
It was revealed in the whole marketing campaign. Interviews, articles and stuff.
@@DrBenjaminLinus There's a page on TV Tropes, Trailers Always Spoil. I bet there's at least a couple of Terminator examples.

Uh, about that… nah, this is the perfect month to be scared of sequels.
I'm curious as to which movie she is considering as the conclusion of the trilogy. Technically, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines was made as the sequel but Terminator: Dark Fate is *Carmeron's* sequel and they completely disregard the events of the other Terminator movies that came after Terminator 2.
@@PhailedGamer both are also heaps of dung.
Salvation was a good movie, I will die on this hill.

None of the sequels after T2 are worthy of the Terminator name. Some of them are (barely) TV movie of the week worthy. I've just been in disbelief they let that happen. The first two just tower over everything else with the Terminator name on it.

@@gumdeo nah T3 is the true ending! With-out judgement day Connor cant send his father back in time, hence he never existed. Its a time loop!
Also arnie doesn’t breathe when delivering lines, pure dedication to the role
The greatest sequel of all time, this movie has everything that surpass the original. And I'm still shed a tear watching the ending, John really consider him a "father" that he never had. Even Sarah concluded: "Of all the would-be fathers who came and went over the years, this thing, this machine, was the only one who measured up. In an insane world, it was the sanest choice."
I don't know I think maybe The Empire Strikes back or Star Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn might be better sequels.
@@goldleader6074 "Aliens" as well, maybe I should say "One of the greatest sequel of all time".
Ummmmm you are forgetting the freaking Empire Strikes Back
all of yall forgetting about my boy Shrek 2
I generally don't include the Star Wars or LoTR trilogies in 'best sequel' debates as they were written essentially as one continuous story. But, with those two aside, then I think T2, Aliens, and Godfather 2 r proby the best sequels ever. Not necessarily in that order... Road Warrior was also good. Far better than its original
I'm glad you didn't know the twist about Arnie being the good guy. That's the best way to ever experience the movie for the first time.
"Sarah on Sarah is pretty hot actually." 😅
Linda Hamilton actually has a twin sister that they used in the movie for the face off and some mirror shots (more in the director's cut).
The first security guard in the asylum was a twin as well, which is how they achieved the face to face kill. They are also in the hilarious Gremlins 2.
My favourite trick of this movie is pretending that a pane of clear glass is a mirror and having the actor playing their own reflection, while the twin plays the real one.
Just the theme near the end played sadly hits my heartstrings
Cameron's trend of strong women comes from his mother; she was incredibly supportive and encouraged him to strengthen his creativity.
Cool, thanks for that tidbit!
I'd add that when he started trying to break into making movies his special effects demo was a woman in an exoskeleton fighting a robot. Sound familiar?
His mom was beating him till he was 23 years old
His mom was a professional wrestler
I love how the intro to these Terminator reactions are Mary witnessing the birth of Arnold's iconic catchphrases. Because of this, I'll be back 😎
Fun fact: OJ Simpson was originally suppose to be the Terminator in the movies but the director didn’t go through with the idea cause he said there’s no way people could take him seriously as a intimidating killer
Oh boy….. lol
While Arnold is more of a Maid-Inseminator.
@@stvdagger8074 The Sperminate-her
Alleged killer...
And he was right... :)
OJ was due for a different kind of judgement day 😂
Robert Patrick needs more credit for this movie. The guy went to pretty insane levels training to be the T-1000.
He learned to sprint without showing signs of breathing, reload a gun without looking with either hand, fire equally fast with both hands, and fire a gun without blinking.
He also trained to sprint. In the mall scene where he runs after John on his motorbike, Robert actually caught up to him on the first take. And when the car pulling the bike was told to speed up for take 2, he almost caught them again.
When John takes off on the minibike and the second terminator chases him they had to keep redoing the scene because Robert Patrick would run so fast he kept catching up to John
Didn’t he also train specifically to go long times without blinking so he could do entire scenes without blinking just to make it look more inhuman
@@christophernelson24 Yes. And the fast running was past training... he was a track star in high school and college.
@@christophernelson24 yes
Yep. And he held his breath as he ran because a machine doesn't need oxygen
You'd think he would learn after the first take not to run so fast.
"Imagine having that nightmare all the time."

Don't worry, everything is going to be alright.
At least our bosses finally put our minds at ease with a project called MAD.

If you were lucky, you could ignore it. It not...
I think everyone knew what the role in a war my country had in case of a conventional war with the Russians. We were meant to be a roadblock to slow them down.
I don't remember how old I was, around 10-15 I would guess when I realized I had no desire to survive a nuclear war. So I decided the when the alarm came, I would go as close as possible to one of the US bases in the area. As far as I know it had/has one of the NATO defence centres underneath. A sure priority target. The closer I was I thought, the better.
A 10-15 year old thought that.
And now we're in another cold war.
harumph
Sarah Connor seeing the Terminator walk out of the elevator at the mental institution, is one of my favourite scenes in film.
All those years of training, all those years of letting the memories settle, all those years of being dangerous, and in a few seconds she starts panicking and running. That is how impressive the Terminator was on her. Let alone that after she rounded the corner she could hear her son saying "Mom, wait", and knowing that the Terminator can imitate voices
Fun little fact, John Connors step mom in this film is also Vasquez in 'Aliens'.
And mom in titanic
I am so amazed at how well this movie holds up 30 years after its release. The writing, acting and special effects are still completely believable.
*blows security guards knees out*

Linda Hamilton deserved an Oscar for this.
That the doctor got to see all of the terminators and that Sarah was right was the best comeuppance ever.
He saw them, but in Terminator 3, he said he only imagined seeing them.
@@shawbros I don't remember exactly how it goes anymore, but he shows up in The Sarah Connor Chronicles (played by a different actor). He references that moment in T2 and appears to be a believer. And a bit crazy if I remember correctly.
Linda Hamilton has a twin sister who also appears in these movies. That's how they can do practical effects like having a real Sarah and a fake Sarah in the same frame (i.e. Sarah on Sarah action), or Sarah and her mirror image (without a camera showing in the mirror, because there *is* no mirror).
They rarely make characters like Sarah anymore, they don't even get close in modern sci-fi. She earns every single win she gets and she is very believable as a character. And in regards to the actress, every time I watch this movie I am in awe at how good she is at acting.
horror with halloween has been close. Ripley was also basically her.
@@liamnehren1054Ripley is even better imo. Because while Sarah becomes a leader (and a great one) there was no one else to supersede. Ripley in a group of women and men rose above everyone and commanded leadership amongst her peers.
I liked Charlize Theron in Mad Max.
First time I’ve seen someone manage to avoid the spoilers that Arnie is the good guy this time around. But I personally prefer the extended cut as there’s some extra character beats that make the film make more sense.
Agreed. It's kind of sad that thatversion isn't available to stream. It adds quite few more dramatic character beats.
First time?! Many young reactors this past year alone are on TH-cam with watching T2 with the surprise reveal not surprised it's really cool to witness
@@steveflair7815 How many times have you watched someone watch Terminator 2?
I just love it that Arnie is the protector in this movie!
For some reason, this movie reminds me of Leon The Professional. A professional killer who protects a child. Both movies has this kind of dorky killer who does the right thing, without really understanding why.
A little trivia for you, Mary... the scene where Robert Patrick is chasing John on the motorbike, in the parking garage, had to be reshot several times, because Robert kept catching John! He was a college track star and was really that fast!
Wow! That’s awesome!
while also not blinking and not breathing. robert patrick was so hardcore in this movie. taught himself not to blink or flinch when firing his gun.
@@crankfastle8138 That's right! And if you watch closely, Arnold blinks every time!
@@ericjahoda2997 All the more reason for the shades, I'm sure.
Fun fact: In the final fight where the T-1000 mimiks Sarah, it's no blue screen or other cut-in effect. It is actually Linda Hamilton's twin playing the T-1000 in that scene.
Fun Fact: It takes two hands to pilot a helicopter, so when the T-1000 is flying the helicopter and shooting at Team Connor, if you look closely, he has three arms.
If they'd had a little more tech in the day, they could have really played with the T1000's shape-shifting. He's only humanoid for blending purposes, and the human form isn't especially combat-effective (as demonstrated by the terrifying state of current autonomous weapons, which we should all join Oxfam in keeping a check on if we don't want to live this movie for real).
When he reloads he actually has four, 'cause it also takes two arms/hands to do that. But yes in the side shots you can clearly see he has two left arms.
@@michaelccozens Also his ability to be different people isn't used to its fullest potential. Why would he ever revert to the policeman after the chase begins? The T-1000 would logically try to be different people in order to trick and sneak up on its prey. The only reason it keeps turning into Robert is because a film needs a villain that the audience can recognize
@@trequor And because the police shape gives him access to weapons, vehicles and crime scenes, its the most convenient shape he has, and uses it to his advantage in every interaction with other people.
@@trequor uh because hes smart enough to realize to keep track of sarah conner his best bet is the police for their entire database. Work smarter not harder.
Linda Hamilton's transformation in this movie is totally believable.
"You must become stronger than you imagine possible, or I will never be."
She took that to heart!!
Watch the extended Special Edition with Kyle Reese in it, more Sarah scenes, more scenes of the Terminator learning, Dyson's family, the T1000 breaking down and more
Yeah. I was a bit disappointed for her to be watching the theatrical version for her first time.

Happy Hollidays Merry. You are a beautiful spirit.
Fun Fact: The actor playing the T-1000 was so proficient at running, he had to slow down because he kept catching up to John on his bike
When Robert Patrick (T1000) went in for his interview, he did nothing but stare at the casting director with a creepy blank expression on his face, and didn't say a word.
When Sarah goes off to kill Dyson, she in effect becomes a terminator.

@@PadreWoodrow Well, there's no accounting for taste, I guess.
It's amazing how a film can be perceived a totally different way based on a lack of current marketing. For those of us who saw the original run in theatres, we came in knowing Arnold was the good guy because the advertising made that very clear. All the millennials/zillenials watching this film now are genuinely surprised when Arnold is revealed to be the hero, which I think adds another dimension of awesomeness to it.
So many unnecessary things are spoiled in trailers. Thor: Ragnarok comes to mind.

My favourite film. I still have the VHS from back in the day. The nuclear bomb dream scene still haunts me to this day. I also quote this film on a daily basis
When the two Sarah’s appeared in the factory scene they used Linda Hamilton’s twin sister Leslie Hamilton. Unfortunately Leslie passed away in 2020.
The guard the T-1000 duplicated in the psych ward was twins too.
They also used the sister for the playground scene. Sorry to hear of her passing.
Leslie was also in the scene where Sarah operates on the T-100's head in the mirror.
Fun piece of trivia: There are two sets of twins in this movie, so think back on any scenes where they might've used screen trickery to duplicate someone. Have fun =D

A little note here:
The actor who played Miles Bennett Dyson, had a near death experience in his past. This really helped him acting the pain when he get shot by Linda Hamilton and the death scene during the infiltration if Cyberdyne. Actor Joe Morton really used his experience to his advantage here.
Undoubtedly one of the greatest sequels ever.
Seeing the CGI in movie theatres in 1991 it blew people's minds, including mine. Remember this is two years before Jurassic Park blew our minds again. :)
One of the sequels that are better than the predecessors
The SFX after all these years are still mindblowing.
The thing is, between the time of the first and second film, Arnold became the biggest star on the planet, and played so many hero roles that they couldn’t have him be the evil Terminator again. This film is definitely the high point of his career.
You mean Kindergarten Cop isn't his high point???
@@judevenalian5008 “It’s not a Tuma!”!”
It was James Cameron's decision to turn the T-800 into a hero from a purely narrative standpoint. Arnie was hesitant to do so.

Mary, this movie was the one that started the next evolution of special effects, CGI and audio in movies that we've become accustomed to thanks to James Cameron
Jurassic Park was also pretty ground breaking too with it's use of CGI and helped pave the way. Though there was also some animatronic stuff in JP too.
Im in my mid 40s and say this movie in the cinema back in 1991 and countless times since. The "thumbs up" at the end STILL makes me tear up a little.

this and jurassic park, are just timeless masterpieces
About the T-1000 running, Robert Patrick trained to be able to run without breathing through his mouth.
When this movie came out the commercials announced the fact that Arnold was now the good guy. So everyone going to the movie knew that before it started. Almost no one was surprised when he ended up protecting the kid. It's only today that young people are surprised by it because they never saw the old commercials.
They do such a good job making the movie, but then screw some of it up by telling you whats going to happen.
I was on a Navy ship with my Marine Air squadron in the west pacific when this movie came out so I read the novelization. I didn't know the plot twist since I couldn't watch television so I was one of the few that didn't have the story spoiled.
7:34 your so silly, he protects him from being shot to bits & you ask wheres the protector? 🤣
T1 and T2 are the only ones worth watching.
@Henry Tjernlund. Filmwise, I agree.
The TV series handled the characters well and was generally cool, but the plot made no sense...
hey t4 was pretty good not t1 or t2 level of course(but miles better than t3). thats where terminator as a movies should have ended.
I just watched both reactions back to back. Again I think your reactions are the best I have seen to the Terminator movies.

Don't forget True Lies. After you're done with those, finish it of with Last Action Hero.

43:47 "She only really had Jesse to protect her" Who else quickly looked up who Jesse is? lol
Not me. I knew she mixed the name up.
The best way to enjoy this saga is to watch the first movie, then the director's cut of the second one with the happy ending, and forget that the others even exist.
Terminator 2 is best sequel…..usually sequel movies is step back after every first….Best Action & cinematography and of course the T1000 is best Villian
I disagree. Sequel movies are usually better imo
@@Ardi_0 Hmmmm. There are literally only a few sequels that are arguably better than their original counterparts. Let's see... The Empire Strikes Back, Aliens, T2:Judgement Day, The Godfather 2, The Dark Knight, LOTR: The Two Towers, Avengers Infinity War (yes, Infinity War..Endgame was overrated)......Help me out here......I'm drawing a blank........what other sequels were better than the original? This is all I got. Very curious to see what you think had better sequels?
I'm probably the only person in the world to say this but I enjoy the majority of sequels cause I don't compare them to the originals (same with spin offs, remakes, reboots etc), sure sequels have issues but the originals do too.
these 2 movies, T1 & T2 show the advancement in computer special effects
the 'morphing' technology that suddenly was seen in a lot of movies really started here
You should consider stopping with this one or at least be aware Cameron wasn't involved with any of the other terminator films. This ending, as per Cameron's intentions, is pretty definitive. The only reason more were made was because the studio didn't want to give up a cash cow. The sequels range from sloppy continuations to attempted reboots.
And a TV series that supposedly "continues" from this film. Supposedly.
@ I'm sure wads of cash being waved under his nose had nothing to do with his "return".
The T-1000 screams when going into the molten metal. Arnold calmly gives a thumbs up.
Terminator 2 - Judgement Day is one of the greatest action movie ever made. Because it has amazig action sequences, great characters, a great story AND it has a true message, true thoughts about what makes us humans, what makes us more than just flesh and bones.
It's fun to see that light bulb moment, for the reactors, when they figure out "Arnuld" is the protection for John...
