@@moreinterference yeah, she's not latino - according to deep lore, she misunderstood the audition and thought Aliens was about migrant workers, and came dressed as one, hence Hudson's "illegal alien" joke.
Fun fact: Robert Patrick the guy playing the T-1000 was a track runner. He intentionally stopped breathing while running to make it more "machine like". The first time they did the scene where he chases John Connor on the motorbike in the parking structure, he cought up to him, because he is so fast. Cameron the director jokingly shouted "cut! ok we are done, the movie is over." or something to that effect. Guy was faster than the dirtbike, without breathing.
Some more fun facts: Robert Patrick trained himself to be able to fire the gun multiple times without blinking so he would look more robot-like. His performance in this movie is pretty remarkable. He doesn't get much credit, I'm guessing, because he's the bad guy. Also, Linda Hamilton actually learned to pick a lock with paper clips so it would be authentic when she picked the lock on her "cell" door. During her dream sequence when she sees herself with a child at the playground, Linda Hamilton's twin sister played the part of herself with the child. As far the rest of the Terminator movies, my advice is to stop here. The rest of them really suck.
I have to tell this story every time someone reviews T2: I was a kid when my dad worked next door in the office complex they used for the Cyberdyne building (he worked as a Silicon Valley engineer at a semiconductor company). As a result of notices by the receptionist and news published in the local paper, we ended up on-site the night Arnold was filmed on the 2nd floor with the mini-gun, and got a ton of family photos around the torched cop cars the next day. Ironically, we were camping out in our van, watching “Masters of the Universe” on a small b&w tv when the shooting started.
No CGI with the helicopter flying under the bridge. That was a real stunt. The pilot was one of the best stuntman in the business. He said he would do it, but only once. No retakes.
Greetings from Finland!!! Actually he did it twice to get the shots from the front and back of the helicopter when it goes under the tunnel "i'll be back" 😎
Nice reaction, guys. When this movie came out, Arnold being the "good guy" was totally spoiled by all the movie previews on TV. It's fun watching youtube reactions where people are actually surprised by it.
My guess is that they turned off their feed prematurely. In the edit they just probably should have mentioned it in the beginning and then added discussion about Sarah's closing monologue at the very end.
Found you guys when you started watching 2 of my favourite shows Buffy and BSG and I'm so glad I did. I'm really enjoying all your reactions and how well you notice details and take excellent notes. Thanks so much for sharing your reactions.
Thanks for joining us! We enjoy the content but also our brains are always ready to try and decipher any clues we've been given! Even one from last movie like the dog!
@@BigSplenda1885 - In the 70's and 80's, people smoked in planes, theaters, hospitals, restaurants, at work, etc. Even if you were a non-smoker, it was expected that you would put out ashtrays if you were having any kind of gathering or party at your house.
My Mom and I went to see this opening night. The best part of the show was how involved the audience was. At the scene where Arnold is assumed dead some guy yelled out, "All those who believe in the terminator clap your hands!" The whole audience started clapping, Arnold's eye turned red, and the audience erupted in cheers. *Note: In the play Peter Pan, when Tinkerbell is assumed dead Peter Pan turns to the audience and asks, "All those who believe in fairies clap your hands." Tinkerbell , Terminator 😂😂😂
I was 9. I went with my mom and my uncle. It was the biggest movie theater in town. I remember everyone jumping through the roof when the endoskeleton crushed that child's skull. The sound was PHENOMENAL
The reason that the SWAT cops don't stop to ask questions while the Terminator is walking towards them through a hail of bullets is that they operate on the doctrine that if you throw enough lead downrange it will stop whatever is there. Particularly if it is not taking cover.
If I recall this was the most expensive movie ever made at the time. Cameron would go on to keep making the some of the most expensive movies of all time (Titanic and Avatar series)
The scene that was all in the desert is where i grew up but i was in the military by then my younger brother got arnalds autograph and a kiss from linda hamilton our dog coco peed on there costumes that was hanging on a cloths rack outside. The scene where they are looking at the map on the hood of the car and the store in the desert is 140th street east Lancaster Calif. The store is where our bus stop was for school. I still got the newspaper article from when they filmed there.
Not defending him, but he's probably had to deal with some serious crap from the patients. Licking her face was an ultimate test of whether she was faking it or not, not just a pervy whim. Sarah's acting skills were tested to 110% in this case. But yeah, he did deserve a couple more punches... I imagine it takes a "special" kind of a person to become a psych ward nurse....
When i was little my dad was a sound engineer in london, i got to go to a surround sound exbo. They had a pre-release on T2 on a screen to demonstrate its audio. Think i was about 4, the opening scene of the park gave me nightmares for years!
As an _actual_ Uncle Bob, I approve of this reaction! ;-] Kudos to Mike for knowing the term: McGuffin... and jeers for not using it properly. He probably meant to say a McGiverism. A McGuffin is the thing that everybody in the movie wants -- think the Maltese Falcon, or the stolen plans to the Death Star! The term can mean many things, but it would not apply to whatever they come up with to save them at the last minute... but McGiverism would.
@@732ReviewCrew the perfect example of the McGuffin is the suitcase in Pulp Fiction. It's never shown what's inside and literally doesn't matter. It's only there to cause the plot.
The guy who noticed is the editor too so he watched the first movie twice technically once for the reaction and once for the edit. He calls it the editor's curse because he's pays way too much attention things that sometimes don't mean anything
On a related note, you guys have to watch the original ending Cameron intended. It would’ve successfully closed the time loop and prevented so many bad sequels.
The one thing I wish they had left in was in the steel mill, they show the T1000 glitching, showing that it's not indestructible, that it can take damage.
When Arnold shot the tip off of the t-1000's hook, every following shot of him showed that he was missing three fingers until the scrap rejoined his foot in the street. Miles's "Don't ask" comment showed that his bosses didn't explain where it came from to him either, he was just the employee who learned the most from studying it. There was a cut scene where Sarah and John had to shut Arnold down to initiate some automated repairs or something. Sarah had to literally choose to re-activate him, and John found a setting where he could remove ALL of Arnold's programmed restrictions (good or bad) and truly give him free will. They replaced it all with the line "I am a learning machine." Viewing advice: Watch T3 ONLY if drunk - it's horrible. T:Salvation isn't horrible, but plays really loose with the mythos and annoyed many fans. T:Genesis is fairly decent FanFic. I truly like T:Dark Fate, and consider it a worthwhile-though-lesser sequel to T2.
How are the Sarah Connor chronicles? Also interesting about the fingers! Also a learning machine vs free will... Not sure what we prefer. It's great as is
@@732ReviewCrew I liked The SC Chronicles. It takes a while to find its own footing instead of taking easy answers, but had me fairly well hooked when they yanked it off the air. Consider it an alternate universe tale.
@@732ReviewCrew The Sarah Connor Chronicles is weird because it got better as it progressed (developing a unique plotline in the franchise), then it got cancelled after two seasons (before getting anywhere with that plotline). What I liked most about it was a character played by the lead singer of Garbage, Shirley Manson - in my opinion, the only actor in all of the sequels who came close to Robert Patrick.
Personally, of all the sequels, I liked T:Salvation the most, just because it dared to do its own thing. I found T:Genysis too complicated (not to understand but to entertain - if you want to add more time loops, Back To The Future did it better) and T:Dark Fate a less bad failure (but still a failure) than what appeared to be the fan consensus. I wished they had managed to get John Furlong to reprise his role, instead of using his CGI lookalike.
Summer Glau really made that show for me, though I never watched through the last season. In my own cannon the Sara Conner chronicles is T3. @732ReviewCrew
Now you need to watch the extended edition (includes scenes showing why the T-800 was able to learn so well and why John recognized the T-1000 wasn't really Sarah) including the revised 2029 scene at the end.
Such a great movie and it really holds up. Really enjoyed revisiting it via your reaction. The stepped up budget really shows. Movie won 4 academy awards for it's sound, special effects, & makeup and was nominated for editing and cinematography. And Robert Patrick has been in a ton of things including being the actor that replaced David Duchovny in The X-Files. Since you're big ATLA fans, you might like knowing he was the VA of Piandao in the Sokka's Master episode. I saw him once in the waiting room of my vet's office in Studio City, CA. Didn't talk to him but told my dog he's better behave or the terminator would get him. And I agree with the others, you don't need to react to the other sequels. Not that they're horrible but they're not in the same league as T2.
@@732ReviewCrew "The first thing you must learn is that your weapon is an extension of yourself. You must think of it as another part of your own body." "Like a second head?" "Well, more like an extra-long, really sharp arm." 🤔
That was a good catch - dogs were used to detect terminators in the early years when they first introduced the passable ones. I do t think they actually explained that before Genesys either.
11:50 This guy at the mall taking photos apparently in shock is actually in the first Terminator. He’s the cop Arnie smashed into the cop car and then took his car and later imitated his voice. The dude probably shat his pants seeing Terminator Arnie again.
The Terminator and T2 were the Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back for my generation. The Terminator is possibly the greatest "B-movie" ever made. By that i mean, it is the greatest low-budget sci-fi ever produced. Some of the effects stand out like a sore thumb. But The Terminator is still a great inspiration for future filmmakers. Cameron showed us what can be possible on a small budget and its freaking amazing. T2 on the other hand is the greatest action movie ever made. Cameron showed us whats possible once youve established yourself in the industry. And its freaking phenomenal. I mean, Linda Hamilton was so great in T2, she made Sarah Connor one of the greatest, strongest, most iconic female roles ever put on film. Her Sarah Connor is right up there with Cameron's own Ellen Ripley in Aliens and Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With The Wind.
You're absolutely correct, the budget on the first movie being so low yet the film still being a blockbuster was due to amazing writing and acting. This one had the budget behind it just cementing it even further as a top film!
A little fun fact about the nuclear blast scene; It's been praised for being extra accurate, like that's how people would die to an early 90s thermonuclear weapon; Burn first from the intense radiation and then the blast wave catches up.
Recent subscriber. Loving the content. Bonus that you're doing some of my fave all time series and films, eg Buffy, Battlestar, this.... Whether you react to it or not. Highly recommend the series Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. When I watch the franchise over again I watch T1, T2 and TSCC and nothing else. Lol Set a few years after the events of this film. Has characters and actors from this film pop up here and there. Stars Lena Headey as Sarah. So good. Lots of other great actors in it. Only two seasons thanks to the last writers strike but well worth the watch.
No its just Robert Patrick with fake arms attached to him. When you see a close-up of Robert Patrick, hes in a fake helicopter that is attached to a crane on a truck. The truck moves down the freeway with the mock up helicopter and Robert Patrick inside it, to give the illusion hes flying it. That footage is then brilliantly edited with the real helicopter being flown by a Proffessional pilot for the wide shots. That pilot is the renowned Chuck Tamburro, one of the greatest helicopter pilots ever. Hes actually in the film. He's the pilot of the helicopter in the movie, and the T1000 tells him to get out.
did you notice that when T1000 changed to guy by the coffee mashine and he knock the glass in door is like metal noise , previously the real guy knock it and was different☝this movie is real masterpiece!
Good job boys ! Thanks for not using the extended/directors cut . It makes the movie look stupid like the extended version of Aliens ! Classic James Cameron move. Makes a perfect film , and adds an alternate piece of shit cut.
The whole 'bait and switch' idea was the original plan for the movie. We weren't supposed to know at the beginning who was the good guy and bad guy until the big action scene in the back of the mall. But for all us back in the early 90's, before the movie came out, the trailers pretty much spoiled everything by saying the Terminator was the good guy this time.
@@732ReviewCrew Linda Hamilton (Sarah Connor) and Dan Stanton (Lewis the Guard) have identical twin siblings who playted their T1000 dopplegangers. Can't complain about the mix up - you'll love Twins ("Yeah, I saw the resemblance immediately.")
Did you realize that both Gollum and the T-1000 had DID personalities and both perished in hot liquid lava? Here Arnold is Gandalf and Samwise Gamgee was John while Frodo was Sarah, because her “precious” was John.
Do you remember Prof. Hulk telling the Avengers how time travel works where when you come back, that future is in your past so you continue even if the timeline is altered? If you want to ignore everything else, watch "Terminator: Dark Fate.."
i hate how they show time teleportation in movies (time travel is what we already do in one direction haha to go backward take the same amount of time to get to the past lol) like star trek does it and what not. that old time line doesnt stop you just teleport through time and space. just like in back to th future the doc and marty still was in the future despite biff changing the past. iits all tied to the multi/omniverse theory
T-1000 not killing Sarah was probably insurance in case he needed to lure John into trap. He knew that John risked himself to save his mother before so it would likely happen again.
This is one of those movies that if you were flipping through the channels, you’d stop and watch it from wherever you came in. This may have been the first movie with not-shown-as-abusive foster parents.
T-800 = Endoskeleton Model 101 = Arnold skinsuit. ( The T800s were fielded with lots of models.) Fun fact: The extended director's cut was actually the cut Shown in Theatres on sneak preview showings premiere night. (All 2h30m) They then cut it for general release (2hr), Is broadcast release (90m), The first extended edition (2h15m), Then finally we released as the directors extended cut in its original form.🤬 (You are missing 30 minutes of the movie. Watching this version.) The nice thing about the Terminator franchise is because it is a time travel show , everything is canon. There are no discrepancies , and it doesn't matter that the time line looks like a hairball coughed up by the Cheshire cat. Movie, Tv series, Novel, Comic Game... All of it has a place in the franchise and works..... And yes you should watch the t v series. Terminator The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
The desert scene is where I grew up, the part with the store and looking at the map on the car is 140th street east Lancaster Calif. The store was where are bus stop was for school. My younger brother got Arnolds autograph and a kiss from Linda Hamilton, sadly I was in the military by then so missed out on meeting them. Our dog coco peed on there costumes when they were hanging on the rack out side according to my mom. I still have the newspaper article that my mom gave me when they filmed it there.
Very fun reaction, guys. I subbed for BSG, but guess I'll have a look at your other stuff, too. Showing my age here, but I think it's crazy that there are people out there that never saw T2 or did not be aware of some of the major plot points. It still holds up so well. Fun fact that someone else may have mentioned already: For the shots involving the security guard and his T-1000 clone, they used real life twins playing these roles, instead of some special effect or camera / editing tricks. The same for the scenes with two Sarah Connors at the end: It was Linda Hamilton and her identical twin sister. Her twin sister also appeared as her mirror image in the scene where they are reprogramming Uncle Bob. If you're taking movie suggestions, I suggest 2012's "The Impossible" about the 2004 Tsunami disaster in Indian Ocean. It's quite a heavy movie, but has some impeccable performances including a young Tom Holland. This year also marks the 20th anniversary of this horrible event.
The movies cannot be a "time loop" which has "already happened" otherwise in T1 Sarah can tell future John to make sure Reese warns Ginger , Matt and Sarahs mum to get away so they aren't killed.
In case someone hasn't said it yet, i don't think Sarah was able to see the future, they were very vivid dreams and maybe she saw documentaries of nuclear explosions?
THERE ARE NO MOVIES BEYOND JUDGEMENT DAY! But the Sarah Conner Chronicles have Summer Glau (Firefly's River), and is great. Mikey, I feel like the guys weren't giving you the praise and amazement you CLEARLY deserved for spotting the dog reacting to the T1000. Awesome job. Amazing observation. Best watcher of movies ever. 😘 I don't know how many movies y'all watch but how the HECK do you forget T2 - after MULTIPLE viewings Mike?! This was so much fun, mostly for Joe's unbelievable poker face. Not reacting IS still a reaction Joe! Tidbit: no editing cleverness was needed to double Linda Hamilton for the final scenes (or for the park dream) her twin sister played her. You guys rock.
YOU GUYS NEED to check out the director's cut. it goes into more detail and it shows that the T1000 HAS been taking damage and starts malfunctioning in the steel mill. also theres an alternate ending somewhere out there that shows an old sarah sitting in the park with an adult john playing with his child. to me, at least, thats canon since the subsequent movies sucked.thanks for reviewing this. its one of my all time faves!
There are many theories of working out the timeline but nobody actually knows since timetravel is not possible. One theory is that the moment the first T-800 and Kyle Reese comes back the timeline splits off and thats on a whole seperate branch now like its a parallel universe, completely independent from the original. T2 is one of the best sequels ever made ( top 3 on my list ). The CGI got a lot better and the T-1000 effects are phenomenal. 2 years prior Abyss came out ( another great James Cameron sci-fi movie you guys should definitely see ) and without going into spoiler let me just say that they were working hard to create a believable fluid simulation for thats why the T-1000's effects look so good. Also shoutout to Patrick Robinson for his performance, he nailed it. Much leaner and skinnier than Arnold but he was just as menacing if not more. Really great stuff. Both the practical effects and the CGI are amazing in this movie, its actually mindblowing how well they hold up. There is a story when Cameron and one of the producers were discussing how are they going to the scene in CGI when the helicopter flies under the overpass and they will have to get the movements right so the pilot was part of the discussion and he was like...well I am fairly certain I could fly under that thing for real so there will be no need for CGI... and he did. :) Not sure if you guts catch it but in T1 when Arnold arrives at the first Sarah Connor's house, there are some kid's toys on the road he drives over and the black truck is the toy version of the truck the T-1000 drove when he was chasing John after he escaped from the arcade. By the time the people in the Pentagon realized that Skynet is acting up it was over, the software was on the internet there was no stopping it. It actually tricked them to untie its hands. It's addressed in the next movie and I quite like it to be honest the it happens. T2 put that bar really fuckin' high there was no way the next movie is going to be this good. It's the problem when you make a perfect movie, anything that comes after will not measure up. I still say you guys should watch them and make up your own opinion about them, dont just accept other's. Are they as good as T2? Well ofc not but they are good action sci-fi that worth a watch. I liked T3 and T4 a lot more than the last two but thats just me. I think you guys would still enjoy it, especially for the first time.
also, there is a TV show as you mentioned and its really good. Summer Glau is in it ( River from Firefly ) and Lena Headey ( Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones ). Only 2 seasons but its amazing Terminator lore, and you will see how John learned all the skills that he will use in the future ( like hacking chips and stuff )
Pretty sure that I saw when it came out VHS with my Dad but I have seen it so many times on pretty much every video format. I don't it happening anymore but back in the 90s when there were more independent theaters, they would do midnight movies and rent prints from the big movies like this. I work for a company called Landmark and we did midnight movies and would always get stuff like Terminator, Bladerunner, etc and do showing on weekends. It was rad. The theatrical release is near perfect but the director's cut is worth it if you every do a rewatch. This movie and Aliens pretty much set James Cameron up for life. He could then go to something like The Abyss which wasn't as successful but still good, and then of course on to Titanic and Avatar which at one point or another were the high grossing films of all time. All of the other Terminator films are watchable but not particularly good; if it was me I would just watch T3 and maybe Terminator Salvation and then stop, or just stop with 2 and be done. If you haven't seen Alien by Ridley Scott and/or Cameron's Sequel Aliens they both are great in their own right. For me I love the orignal Alien more, it is right up there with The Thing for the best sci-fi horror but James Cameron's Aliens is like top 5 of action sci-fi up there with the first Matrix, Bladerunner. The effects work and overall quality had a seismic effect their genre at the time of release. By this point Arnold was already a household name but he was a mega star after this and went on to do some lighter movies like Twins and Kindergarten Cop which, though very dated, are a good watch. I grew up on Arnold as Conan, John Matrix from Commando, and Dutch from Predator. You kinda can't go wrong with Arnold action from the 80s, even mindless shit like Red heat. Always fun to watch him disassemble bad guys. I really dug that Mikey caught the dog barking immediately. He has watched so much Expanse which required so much attention so you can catch stuff that he is trained to pay attention to details. @Joe - The scene with Dyson and the jr. engineer talking about the checking out the tech and him asking where it came from was just establishing the reason why and how Judgement Day was still coming, it never comes up again in any direct way. It was also to introduce us to Dyson since we are going to see him later.
IMO this and Aliens were better than the first. 7:03 good catch. I've watched a dozen of these and you are the first to catch that. Someone mentioned that the weirdo licked her to see if she was medicated. Also, the Psych. guards were actually twins.
As the editor I noticed things a little bit more or things are certainly in my mind a little bit more recently. Better believe I'll remember if there's animals involved
Greetings from Finland guys!!! Wholesome reaction and i'd love 2 see your reactions to Terminator 3 and Terminator salvation witch is the best sequel after judgement day if you ask me!!!! "i'll be back" 😎
This was the theatrical version. imo, better than the Director's Cut. The DC had some extra scenes added, as the T-1000 started to malfunction a bit. Like when he was "fake Sarah", the camera pans down to show the T-1000's legs merging with the metal plate of the floor/deck. And it has a really weird ending added, which feels very out-of-place, imo. This version, with just the road at the end, and Sarah's voiceover, was all the ending needed to be. (For the T-1000 "fake Sarah" scene, when Linda Hamilton was nearest to the camera, it was actually her twin sister in the background.) Her sister also played a part in the "Reset the switch" scene in the Director's Cut, when Arnie was facing the mirror. The extended scene of that, was one of the few parts of the Director's Cut I thought was worth seeing. There's a DC of "The Abyss" as well, which I didn't see until about 9 years after the movie was released. I didn't like the Director's Cut of that either. It added a lot more scenes near the end, and totally takes you out of the movie. lol
When it was in the cinema I went on 3 consecutive days to see it. The best sequel ever made IMO. 2nd only to Aliens.. Both directions by the great James Cameron. I have ultimate edition of T2 on DVD which includes the Making of the movie. One thing that made me laugh was that when Robert Patrick was running to catch up with John on the bike he actually caught up with the bike and they had to retake the shot 😂😂
Gotta love the parallel between Sarah and the Terminator, how her mission and her trauma made her into a machine, ignoring her son, his feelings and finally the inhumanity as she attempts to terminate Dyson to ensure victory in the future, just like the Terminator. Similarly, whilst Robert Patrick's T-1000 seems emotionless, it clearly *does* have some feelings as it's actively cruel and malicious - it didn't need to show itself to the security guard with the lucky cup, for example. Terminator 3 is OK, though it was clearly designed to boost Arnie's popularity as he was running for governor of California, and it's a bit lighter, a bit more family friendly. The rest are garbage, don't waste precious reaction time on them.
I really Liked T2, but to me the first one had a better feel to it. Much grittier and more suspenseful. It's a coincidence that the T1000 is dressed as a cop because the first person he came upon happened to be one. He wears clothes because he duplicates the person he comes into contact with. It's just part of their programming in order to blend in.
4:23 Yeah! STICK with the table you've got! 31:02 Oh look terminator #3 😲 49:30WTF! Will You just listen to Sarah C!?? FFS....kids nowadays 😞 PS Please Stop saying CGI when The Terminator(1984) There was none. PPS No melting plant in T1 - JUST a factory 😛 DYNACORP ≥ CYBERDYNE
Fact next Terminator movies suck except salvation and maybe genesys But in saying that though if you want more legit terminator part of the franchise then get into the tv show Terminator SCC Sarah Connor chronicles is absolutely epic 👌🔥 and the actress who plays Sarah Connor imo is better than Linda Hamilton
What's realy cool? The actress playing John's step-mother is also Vazquez from Aliens.
And the Irish mother with the kids from Titanic. But yeah, would never has suspected Vasquez was a redhead.
@@moreinterference yeah, she's not latino - according to deep lore, she misunderstood the audition and thought Aliens was about migrant workers, and came dressed as one, hence Hudson's "illegal alien" joke.
Check her out in Near Dark!
So...a man (the t1000) has been mistaken for her?
@@ninjabluefyre3815 The t-1000 is not a man - it's a shapeshifter
Fun fact: Robert Patrick the guy playing the T-1000 was a track runner. He intentionally stopped breathing while running to make it more "machine like".
The first time they did the scene where he chases John Connor on the motorbike in the parking structure, he cought up to him, because he is so fast.
Cameron the director jokingly shouted "cut! ok we are done, the movie is over." or something to that effect.
Guy was faster than the dirtbike, without breathing.
I've heard this! It's CRAZY. I(Mikey) also didn't recognize him until I looked him up!
And then John went on to play Danny in American history x? Nuts
Some more fun facts: Robert Patrick trained himself to be able to fire the gun multiple times without blinking so he would look more robot-like. His performance in this movie is pretty remarkable. He doesn't get much credit, I'm guessing, because he's the bad guy.
Also, Linda Hamilton actually learned to pick a lock with paper clips so it would be authentic when she picked the lock on her "cell" door. During her dream sequence when she sees herself with a child at the playground, Linda Hamilton's twin sister played the part of herself with the child.
As far the rest of the Terminator movies, my advice is to stop here. The rest of them really suck.
I liked the one interview he did saying how he really hit hit and he was like Patrick you really hit me 😂
Not just roses. Guns n roses.
Good catch noticing the dog going bonkers in the backyard.
They also were going bonkers but calmed down when they were at the gun runners.
I have to tell this story every time someone reviews T2: I was a kid when my dad worked next door in the office complex they used for the Cyberdyne building (he worked as a Silicon Valley engineer at a semiconductor company). As a result of notices by the receptionist and news published in the local paper, we ended up on-site the night Arnold was filmed on the 2nd floor with the mini-gun, and got a ton of family photos around the torched cop cars the next day.
Ironically, we were camping out in our van, watching “Masters of the Universe” on a small b&w tv when the shooting started.
This is an amazing memory and we're quite jealous, there's nothing that can be like that these days.
30 years later still one of the best action movies, period.
You started giving your commentary without listening to the ending message of the movie
Which explained all the questions.......duh
No CGI with the helicopter flying under the bridge. That was a real stunt. The pilot was one of the best stuntman in the business. He said he would do it, but only once. No retakes.
Amazing.
Greetings from Finland!!! Actually he did it twice to get the shots from the front and back of the helicopter when it goes under the tunnel "i'll be back" 😎
And the cameraman who was supposed to shoot it refused, as he felt it was too dangerous. So James Cameron operated the camera himself.
This legend is Charles A. Tamburro 🎩🎩
Nice reaction, guys. When this movie came out, Arnold being the "good guy" was totally spoiled by all the movie previews on TV. It's fun watching youtube reactions where people are actually surprised by it.
The dog was the only thing that gave it away!! And such a good concept, flipping the original villain to be a hero? Amazing
I was lucky enough not to have seen any ads at the time, so i was freaking out, in the theatre 😅
Most of the viewings were on VHS and TV and in general people did not know that let alone saw the first one, only knew of it.
I can't believe this guy talked over the conclusion.
DUDE FOR REAL. Ngl I disliked the video solely because of that 🤷🏼♂️
My guess is that they turned off their feed prematurely. In the edit they just probably should have mentioned it in the beginning and then added discussion about Sarah's closing monologue at the very end.

Sarah shoots Miles Dyson and threatens his entire family...
These guys: "OMG... I can't believe she's smoking in their house!"
Did he forget this was 1991? Does he not know literally every fucking one smoked everywhere then?
@@BigSplenda1885 - In the 70's and 80's, people smoked in planes, theaters, hospitals, restaurants, at work, etc.
Even if you were a non-smoker, it was expected that you would put out ashtrays if you were having any kind of gathering or party at your house.
My Mom and I went to see this opening night. The best part of the show was how involved the audience was. At the scene where Arnold is assumed dead some guy yelled out, "All those who believe in the terminator clap your hands!" The whole audience started clapping, Arnold's eye turned red, and the audience erupted in cheers.
*Note: In the play Peter Pan, when Tinkerbell is assumed dead Peter Pan turns to the audience and asks, "All those who believe in fairies clap your hands."
Tinkerbell , Terminator 😂😂😂
OH WOW thats hilarious
I was 9. I went with my mom and my uncle. It was the biggest movie theater in town. I remember everyone jumping through the roof when the endoskeleton crushed that child's skull. The sound was PHENOMENAL
I saw it on release too and when Dougie licked Sarahs face a black girl near me said "EWWW nasty man !".
The reason that the SWAT cops don't stop to ask questions while the Terminator is walking towards them through a hail of bullets is that they operate on the doctrine that if you throw enough lead downrange it will stop whatever is there. Particularly if it is not taking cover.
Dyson's character is a freaking hero. Don't know that he gets as much credit as he should.
If I recall this was the most expensive movie ever made at the time. Cameron would go on to keep making the some of the most expensive movies of all time (Titanic and Avatar series)
You are correct as per Google! Man keeps making blockbusters
The scene that was all in the desert is where i grew up but i was in the military by then my younger brother got arnalds autograph and a kiss from linda hamilton our dog coco peed on there costumes that was hanging on a cloths rack outside. The scene where they are looking at the map on the hood of the car and the store in the desert is 140th street east Lancaster Calif. The store is where our bus stop was for school. I still got the newspaper article from when they filmed there.
That's so cool!
i love the universal disdain for the psych nurse
We were disgusted by that behavior.
Dude deserved worse
Not defending him, but he's probably had to deal with some serious crap from the patients. Licking her face was an ultimate test of whether she was faking it or not, not just a pervy whim. Sarah's acting skills were tested to 110% in this case.
But yeah, he did deserve a couple more punches...
I imagine it takes a "special" kind of a person to become a psych ward nurse....
@@gambar be quiet
When i was little my dad was a sound engineer in london, i got to go to a surround sound exbo.
They had a pre-release on T2 on a screen to demonstrate its audio. Think i was about 4, the opening scene of the park gave me nightmares for years!
As an _actual_ Uncle Bob, I approve of this reaction! ;-]
Kudos to Mike for knowing the term: McGuffin... and jeers for not using it properly. He probably meant to say a McGiverism.
A McGuffin is the thing that everybody in the movie wants -- think the Maltese Falcon, or the stolen plans to the Death Star! The term can mean many things, but it would not apply to whatever they come up with to save them at the last minute... but McGiverism would.
I'll correct him! Thanks uncle Bob 😉
@@732ReviewCrew the perfect example of the McGuffin is the suitcase in Pulp Fiction. It's never shown what's inside and literally doesn't matter. It's only there to cause the plot.
@@732ReviewCrew 😄👍
Alfred Hitchcock defined McGuffin as something that the characters in a movie care about, but the audience does not.
@@rodentnolastname6612that and "The rabbit's foot" from Mission Impossible 3 always come to mind
The doctor doesn'T meet the terminator in the first movie.
Sarah Connor Chronicles season 1 and season 2 is before the 3rd movie
Sarah Connor Chronicles is amazing. Even if you don’t react you may want to watch it for fun.
I like that you noticed the dog freaking out at T1000's first visit.. It was a huge clue.
The guy who noticed is the editor too so he watched the first movie twice technically once for the reaction and once for the edit. He calls it the editor's curse because he's pays way too much attention things that sometimes don't mean anything
On a related note, you guys have to watch the original ending Cameron intended. It would’ve successfully closed the time loop and prevented so many bad sequels.
But it was so incredibly bad.
I do recommend the Directors cut/special edition. It has some great character moments and cool sequences that were cut from the theatrical release.
The one thing I wish they had left in was in the steel mill, they show the T1000 glitching, showing that it's not indestructible, that it can take damage.
We can check it out!
theatrical cut is the directors cut
When Arnold shot the tip off of the t-1000's hook, every following shot of him showed that he was missing three fingers until the scrap rejoined his foot in the street.
Miles's "Don't ask" comment showed that his bosses didn't explain where it came from to him either, he was just the employee who learned the most from studying it.
There was a cut scene where Sarah and John had to shut Arnold down to initiate some automated repairs or something. Sarah had to literally choose to re-activate him, and John found a setting where he could remove ALL of Arnold's programmed restrictions (good or bad) and truly give him free will. They replaced it all with the line "I am a learning machine."
Viewing advice: Watch T3 ONLY if drunk - it's horrible. T:Salvation isn't horrible, but plays really loose with the mythos and annoyed many fans. T:Genesis is fairly decent FanFic. I truly like T:Dark Fate, and consider it a worthwhile-though-lesser sequel to T2.
How are the Sarah Connor chronicles?
Also interesting about the fingers!
Also a learning machine vs free will... Not sure what we prefer. It's great as is
@@732ReviewCrew I liked The SC Chronicles. It takes a while to find its own footing instead of taking easy answers, but had me fairly well hooked when they yanked it off the air. Consider it an alternate universe tale.
@@732ReviewCrew The Sarah Connor Chronicles is weird because it got better as it progressed (developing a unique plotline in the franchise), then it got cancelled after two seasons (before getting anywhere with that plotline). What I liked most about it was a character played by the lead singer of Garbage, Shirley Manson - in my opinion, the only actor in all of the sequels who came close to Robert Patrick.
Personally, of all the sequels, I liked T:Salvation the most, just because it dared to do its own thing. I found T:Genysis too complicated (not to understand but to entertain - if you want to add more time loops, Back To The Future did it better) and T:Dark Fate a less bad failure (but still a failure) than what appeared to be the fan consensus. I wished they had managed to get John Furlong to reprise his role, instead of using his CGI lookalike.
Summer Glau really made that show for me, though I never watched through the last season. In my own cannon the Sara Conner chronicles is T3. @732ReviewCrew
One origin of the 80s phrase "Drive it like you stole it."
Now you need to watch the extended edition (includes scenes showing why the T-800 was able to learn so well and why John recognized the T-1000 wasn't really Sarah) including the revised 2029 scene at the end.
Such a great movie and it really holds up. Really enjoyed revisiting it via your reaction. The stepped up budget really shows. Movie won 4 academy awards for it's sound, special effects, & makeup and was nominated for editing and cinematography.
And Robert Patrick has been in a ton of things including being the actor that replaced David Duchovny in The X-Files. Since you're big ATLA fans, you might like knowing he was the VA of Piandao in the Sokka's Master episode. I saw him once in the waiting room of my vet's office in Studio City, CA. Didn't talk to him but told my dog he's better behave or the terminator would get him.
And I agree with the others, you don't need to react to the other sequels. Not that they're horrible but they're not in the same league as T2.
SOKKAS MASTER?!
@@732ReviewCrew "The first thing you must learn is that your weapon is an extension of yourself. You must think of it as another part of your own body." "Like a second head?" "Well, more like an extra-long, really sharp arm." 🤔
That was a good catch - dogs were used to detect terminators in the early years when they first introduced the passable ones. I do t think they actually explained that before Genesys either.
First movie! The dogs are shown in the future barking before the shelter is terminated
There's a clip of a real dog seeing the Boston Dynamics robot "Spot" and the dog freaks out.
Great! I will be waiting for your reaction to Terminator 3. It's also a very cool movie! 👍
oh man, grew up this one, it set the standard to compare all otheraction movies in much the same way john wick has changed that standard haha
11:50 same CHARACTER / actor from T1 (policeman who gets face bumped intro the police car) :O
No mobile phones. Just a tourist's camera 😂
11:50
This guy at the mall taking photos apparently in shock is actually in the first Terminator. He’s the cop Arnie smashed into the cop car and then took his car and later imitated his voice. The dude probably shat his pants seeing Terminator Arnie again.
Joe looks like Pedro Pascal in certain angles.. Interesting.
The Terminator and T2 were the Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back for my generation.
The Terminator is possibly the greatest "B-movie" ever made. By that i mean, it is the greatest low-budget sci-fi ever produced. Some of the effects stand out like a sore thumb. But The Terminator is still a great inspiration for future filmmakers. Cameron showed us what can be possible on a small budget and its freaking amazing.
T2 on the other hand is the greatest action movie ever made. Cameron showed us whats possible once youve established yourself in the industry. And its freaking phenomenal.
I mean, Linda Hamilton was so great in T2, she made Sarah Connor one of the greatest, strongest, most iconic female roles ever put on film. Her Sarah Connor is right up there with Cameron's own Ellen Ripley in Aliens and Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With The Wind.
You're absolutely correct, the budget on the first movie being so low yet the film still being a blockbuster was due to amazing writing and acting. This one had the budget behind it just cementing it even further as a top film!
A little fun fact about the nuclear blast scene; It's been praised for being extra accurate, like that's how people would die to an early 90s thermonuclear weapon; Burn first from the intense radiation and then the blast wave catches up.
I love the KOOL-AID MAN scene.
Since you guys are on a Arnold kick why not Last Action Hero (1993), True Lies (1994), and Jingle All the Way (1996).
I hope you will take on The Sarah Connor Chronicles, it flows with this one pretty well.
Recent subscriber. Loving the content.
Bonus that you're doing some of my fave all time series and films, eg Buffy, Battlestar, this....
Whether you react to it or not. Highly recommend the series Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. When I watch the franchise over again I watch T1, T2 and TSCC and nothing else. Lol
Set a few years after the events of this film. Has characters and actors from this film pop up here and there. Stars Lena Headey as Sarah. So good. Lots of other great actors in it. Only two seasons thanks to the last writers strike but well worth the watch.
The third arm (I believe) was the actual helicopter pilot’s arm. He was operating the bird as Robert Patrick was acting as doing so. 😊
No its just Robert Patrick with fake arms attached to him. When you see a close-up of Robert Patrick, hes in a fake helicopter that is attached to a crane on a truck. The truck moves down the freeway with the mock up helicopter and Robert Patrick inside it, to give the illusion hes flying it. That footage is then brilliantly edited with the real helicopter being flown by a Proffessional pilot for the wide shots. That pilot is the renowned Chuck Tamburro, one of the greatest helicopter pilots ever. Hes actually in the film. He's the pilot of the helicopter in the movie, and the T1000 tells him to get out.
congrats!you watched the REAL terminator-2!no added scenes!!
Sarah becomes like a Terminator, almost. And Terminator *101* knows how to accessorise 😎
49:09 awwwww Joe! I see those tears, let em out kid I cry every time I watch this movie.
did you notice that when T1000 changed to guy by the coffee mashine and he knock the glass in door is like metal noise , previously the real guy knock it and was different☝this movie is real masterpiece!
Oh wow gotta have to re watch now haha
Good job boys ! Thanks for not using the extended/directors cut . It makes the movie look stupid like the extended version of Aliens ! Classic James Cameron move. Makes a perfect film , and adds an alternate piece of shit cut.
Glad you enjoyed!
Mikey always figures it out!
Thanks to Mikey, Joe and Mike! 🤖 All hail writer/director James Cameron.
The whole 'bait and switch' idea was the original plan for the movie. We weren't supposed to know at the beginning who was the good guy and bad guy until the big action scene in the back of the mall. But for all us back in the early 90's, before the movie came out, the trailers pretty much spoiled everything by saying the Terminator was the good guy this time.
Luckily Mikey went in blind and his only tip was the dog freaking out!
How did they do such seamless duplicates in thr same shot? Twins (actual identical twins - not the Arnold & Danny DeVito movie).
Instructions unclear, next movie is now twins
@@732ReviewCrew Linda Hamilton (Sarah Connor) and Dan Stanton (Lewis the Guard) have identical twin siblings who playted their T1000 dopplegangers. Can't complain about the mix up - you'll love Twins ("Yeah, I saw the resemblance immediately.")
Did you realize that both Gollum and the T-1000 had DID personalities and both perished in hot liquid lava? Here Arnold is Gandalf and Samwise Gamgee was John while Frodo was Sarah, because her “precious” was John.
Yes, this is the most badass action film on every level.
Do you remember Prof. Hulk telling the Avengers how time travel works where when you come back, that future is in your past so you continue even if the timeline is altered? If you want to ignore everything else, watch "Terminator: Dark Fate.."
i hate how they show time teleportation in movies (time travel is what we already do in one direction haha to go backward take the same amount of time to get to the past lol) like star trek does it and what not. that old time line doesnt stop you just teleport through time and space. just like in back to th future the doc and marty still was in the future despite biff changing the past. iits all tied to the multi/omniverse theory
37:26 Hank from Breaking Bad.
T-1000 not killing Sarah was probably insurance in case he needed to lure John into trap. He knew that John risked himself to save his mother before so it would likely happen again.
This is one of those movies that if you were flipping through the channels, you’d stop and watch it from wherever you came in. This may have been the first movie with not-shown-as-abusive foster parents.
T-800 = Endoskeleton
Model 101 = Arnold skinsuit.
( The T800s were fielded with lots of models.)
Fun fact:
The extended director's cut was actually the cut Shown in Theatres on sneak preview showings premiere night. (All 2h30m)
They then cut it for general release (2hr), Is broadcast release (90m), The first extended edition (2h15m), Then finally we released as the directors extended cut in its original form.🤬
(You are missing 30 minutes of the movie.
Watching this version.)
The nice thing about the Terminator franchise is because it is a time travel show , everything is canon. There are no discrepancies , and it doesn't matter that the time line looks like a hairball coughed up by the Cheshire cat. Movie, Tv series, Novel, Comic Game... All of it has a place in the franchise and works.....
And yes you should watch the t v series. Terminator The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
"T-800 = Endoskeleton
Model 101 = Arnold skinsuit.
( The T800s were fielded with lots of models.)"
Lol I've been trying to tell people that for years.
Great reaction guys!
There were multiple scenes were there was two Saras in it. Linda Hamilton had a twin sister who was used.
The desert scene is where I grew up, the part with the store and looking at the map on the car is 140th street east Lancaster Calif. The store was where are bus stop was for school. My younger brother got Arnolds autograph and a kiss from Linda Hamilton, sadly I was in the military by then so missed out on meeting them. Our dog coco peed on there costumes when they were hanging on the rack out side according to my mom. I still have the newspaper article that my mom gave me when they filmed it there.
Very fun reaction, guys. I subbed for BSG, but guess I'll have a look at your other stuff, too. Showing my age here, but I think it's crazy that there are people out there that never saw T2 or did not be aware of some of the major plot points. It still holds up so well. Fun fact that someone else may have mentioned already: For the shots involving the security guard and his T-1000 clone, they used real life twins playing these roles, instead of some special effect or camera / editing tricks. The same for the scenes with two Sarah Connors at the end: It was Linda Hamilton and her identical twin sister. Her twin sister also appeared as her mirror image in the scene where they are reprogramming Uncle Bob.
If you're taking movie suggestions, I suggest 2012's "The Impossible" about the 2004 Tsunami disaster in Indian Ocean. It's quite a heavy movie, but has some impeccable performances including a young Tom Holland. This year also marks the 20th anniversary of this horrible event.
The movies cannot be a "time loop" which has "already happened" otherwise in T1 Sarah can tell future John to make sure Reese warns Ginger , Matt and Sarahs mum to get away so they aren't killed.
In case someone hasn't said it yet, i don't think Sarah was able to see the future, they were very vivid dreams and maybe she saw documentaries of nuclear explosions?
its because she was given information from kyle reese.
First two are classics, but I also enjoyed the following 3. Haven’t seen the final one yet, but shall this weekend
15:22 Dude in the middle is justifiably like- why are you spoiling it for the guy who hasn't seen the movie??
THERE ARE NO MOVIES BEYOND JUDGEMENT DAY!
But the Sarah Conner Chronicles have Summer Glau (Firefly's River), and is great.
Mikey, I feel like the guys weren't giving you the praise and amazement you CLEARLY deserved for spotting the dog reacting to the T1000. Awesome job. Amazing observation. Best watcher of movies ever. 😘
I don't know how many movies y'all watch but how the HECK do you forget T2 - after MULTIPLE viewings Mike?!
This was so much fun, mostly for Joe's unbelievable poker face. Not reacting IS still a reaction Joe!
Tidbit: no editing cleverness was needed to double Linda Hamilton for the final scenes (or for the park dream) her twin sister played her.
You guys rock.
And people wonder why 3 is the " bad" one I mean it had.to go up with this
YOU GUYS NEED to check out the director's cut. it goes into more detail and it shows that the T1000 HAS been taking damage and starts malfunctioning in the steel mill. also theres an alternate ending somewhere out there that shows an old sarah sitting in the park with an adult john playing with his child. to me, at least, thats canon since the subsequent movies sucked.thanks for reviewing this. its one of my all time faves!
no Special Edition?
Special edition isn’t nearly as good. The extra scenes kill the flow of the film and the alternate ending is lame as hell.
It is very difficult to take off a piece of clothing that is made of your body.
There are many theories of working out the timeline but nobody actually knows since timetravel is not possible. One theory is that the moment the first T-800 and Kyle Reese comes back the timeline splits off and thats on a whole seperate branch now like its a parallel universe, completely independent from the original.
T2 is one of the best sequels ever made ( top 3 on my list ). The CGI got a lot better and the T-1000 effects are phenomenal. 2 years prior Abyss came out ( another great James Cameron sci-fi movie you guys should definitely see ) and without going into spoiler let me just say that they were working hard to create a believable fluid simulation for thats why the T-1000's effects look so good. Also shoutout to Patrick Robinson for his performance, he nailed it. Much leaner and skinnier than Arnold but he was just as menacing if not more. Really great stuff. Both the practical effects and the CGI are amazing in this movie, its actually mindblowing how well they hold up. There is a story when Cameron and one of the producers were discussing how are they going to the scene in CGI when the helicopter flies under the overpass and they will have to get the movements right so the pilot was part of the discussion and he was like...well I am fairly certain I could fly under that thing for real so there will be no need for CGI... and he did. :)
Not sure if you guts catch it but in T1 when Arnold arrives at the first Sarah Connor's house, there are some kid's toys on the road he drives over and the black truck is the toy version of the truck the T-1000 drove when he was chasing John after he escaped from the arcade.
By the time the people in the Pentagon realized that Skynet is acting up it was over, the software was on the internet there was no stopping it. It actually tricked them to untie its hands. It's addressed in the next movie and I quite like it to be honest the it happens.
T2 put that bar really fuckin' high there was no way the next movie is going to be this good. It's the problem when you make a perfect movie, anything that comes after will not measure up. I still say you guys should watch them and make up your own opinion about them, dont just accept other's. Are they as good as T2? Well ofc not but they are good action sci-fi that worth a watch. I liked T3 and T4 a lot more than the last two but thats just me. I think you guys would still enjoy it, especially for the first time.
also, there is a TV show as you mentioned and its really good. Summer Glau is in it ( River from Firefly ) and Lena Headey ( Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones ). Only 2 seasons but its amazing Terminator lore, and you will see how John learned all the skills that he will use in the future ( like hacking chips and stuff )
Pretty sure that I saw when it came out VHS with my Dad but I have seen it so many times on pretty much every video format. I don't it happening anymore but back in the 90s when there were more independent theaters, they would do midnight movies and rent prints from the big movies like this. I work for a company called Landmark and we did midnight movies and would always get stuff like Terminator, Bladerunner, etc and do showing on weekends. It was rad.
The theatrical release is near perfect but the director's cut is worth it if you every do a rewatch. This movie and Aliens pretty much set James Cameron up for life. He could then go to something like The Abyss which wasn't as successful but still good, and then of course on to Titanic and Avatar which at one point or another were the high grossing films of all time. All of the other Terminator films are watchable but not particularly good; if it was me I would just watch T3 and maybe Terminator Salvation and then stop, or just stop with 2 and be done.
If you haven't seen Alien by Ridley Scott and/or Cameron's Sequel Aliens they both are great in their own right. For me I love the orignal Alien more, it is right up there with The Thing for the best sci-fi horror but James Cameron's Aliens is like top 5 of action sci-fi up there with the first Matrix, Bladerunner. The effects work and overall quality had a seismic effect their genre at the time of release.
By this point Arnold was already a household name but he was a mega star after this and went on to do some lighter movies like Twins and Kindergarten Cop which, though very dated, are a good watch. I grew up on Arnold as Conan, John Matrix from Commando, and Dutch from Predator. You kinda can't go wrong with Arnold action from the 80s, even mindless shit like Red heat. Always fun to watch him disassemble bad guys.
I really dug that Mikey caught the dog barking immediately. He has watched so much Expanse which required so much attention so you can catch stuff that he is trained to pay attention to details.
@Joe - The scene with Dyson and the jr. engineer talking about the checking out the tech and him asking where it came from was just establishing the reason why and how Judgement Day was still coming, it never comes up again in any direct way. It was also to introduce us to Dyson since we are going to see him later.
So much fun!
Alien is a staple for us 3 but we can absolutely look into things like blade runner and other Arnold movies! He's so fun to watch
theatrical release is the directors cut 🤦♀
Have you watched Peacemaker??? Old Robert PAtrick is in that.
Yes!!! I just realized. And that John is Danny in American history x
Robert isnt old.
@@732ReviewCrew Robert Patrick was also great in the Outer Limits episode "The Light Brigade" playing a similar character to the T1000.
haha you guys are killing me. the T-1000 isn't wearing any clothes! the clothes are literally the liquid metal
IMO this and Aliens were better than the first. 7:03 good catch. I've watched a dozen of these and you are the first to catch that. Someone mentioned that the weirdo licked her to see if she was medicated. Also, the Psych. guards were actually twins.
As the editor I noticed things a little bit more or things are certainly in my mind a little bit more recently. Better believe I'll remember if there's animals involved
Screen fades to black- yep must be the end of the movie, switches it off.
Who does that?
Arguably the best action movie ever
Robert Patrick was in the faculty a horror film
Greetings from Finland guys!!! Wholesome reaction and i'd love 2 see your reactions to Terminator 3 and Terminator salvation witch is the best sequel after judgement day if you ask me!!!! "i'll be back" 😎
This was the theatrical version.
imo, better than the Director's Cut.
The DC had some extra scenes added, as the T-1000 started to malfunction a bit.
Like when he was "fake Sarah", the camera pans down to show the T-1000's legs merging with the metal plate of the floor/deck.
And it has a really weird ending added, which feels very out-of-place, imo.
This version, with just the road at the end, and Sarah's voiceover, was all the ending needed to be.
(For the T-1000 "fake Sarah" scene, when Linda Hamilton was nearest to the camera, it was actually her twin sister in the background.)
Her sister also played a part in the "Reset the switch" scene in the Director's Cut, when Arnie was facing the mirror.
The extended scene of that, was one of the few parts of the Director's Cut I thought was worth seeing.
There's a DC of "The Abyss" as well, which I didn't see until about 9 years after the movie was released.
I didn't like the Director's Cut of that either. It added a lot more scenes near the end, and totally takes you out of the movie. lol
When it was in the cinema I went on 3 consecutive days to see it. The best sequel ever made IMO. 2nd only to Aliens.. Both directions by the great James Cameron. I have ultimate edition of T2 on DVD which includes the Making of the movie. One thing that made me laugh was that when Robert Patrick was running to catch up with John on the bike he actually caught up with the bike and they had to retake the shot 😂😂
T1 budget $6.4 M
T2 budget $102 M
Im 90% sure youve seen it multiple times to.
BTTF did irreparable damage to people’s comprehension of fictional time travel.
Gotta love the parallel between Sarah and the Terminator, how her mission and her trauma made her into a machine, ignoring her son, his feelings and finally the inhumanity as she attempts to terminate Dyson to ensure victory in the future, just like the Terminator.
Similarly, whilst Robert Patrick's T-1000 seems emotionless, it clearly *does* have some feelings as it's actively cruel and malicious - it didn't need to show itself to the security guard with the lucky cup, for example.
Terminator 3 is OK, though it was clearly designed to boost Arnie's popularity as he was running for governor of California, and it's a bit lighter, a bit more family friendly.
The rest are garbage, don't waste precious reaction time on them.
That's a great parallel.
Also they made Arnold more human simple by making him protect John. Now it shows he has an attachment
I really think you should watch the third movi. I really like it and it feels like it brings a whole series full circle.
Sir what are you smoking? There are only two Terminator films.
Robot v. robot is always awesome. Maximum action, minimum guilt.
I really Liked T2, but to me the first one had a better feel to it. Much grittier and more suspenseful.
It's a coincidence that the T1000 is dressed as a cop because the first person he came upon happened to be one. He wears clothes because he duplicates the person he comes into contact with. It's just part of their programming in order to blend in.
Jesus Christ! Couldn't you have just waited 20 seconds with the effing yapping and then watched the movie to the end.
what the hell.... did you guys actually just ignore the end of the movie with sarah talking? jfc 😔
dang. i just realized you're watching theatrical instead of director's cut

You're probably right
T2 is the better film. T1 has the better time travel. T1 creates a time loop. T2 blows it up.
I find Mikey incredibly attractive. He looks like a chubby Jason Sudeikis,
Now don't watch the other movies, watch the Sarah Connor Chronicles TV show, it's much better.
You should do a reaction to the Tower Of God anime.
If I can get the guys to I will!
That's another manwha im current with
Mikey
The Best film ever made in my book, Don't watch the sequels, this is as good as it gets.
True after this everything turns to trash what they did to John is unforgiveable.
Fact next Terminator movies suck except salvation and maybe genesys
But in saying that though if you want more legit terminator part of the franchise then get into the tv show
Terminator SCC Sarah Connor chronicles is absolutely epic 👌🔥 and the actress who plays Sarah Connor imo is better than Linda Hamilton
IMHO T4 had good visuals but a silly plot and Genesys sucked overall.
There are only 2 movies. The rest are fan fiction not written by Cameron. Ignore them, because they are not part of the story.
Meh, they’re all worth watching once 🤷🏼♂️
