Yeah but he said, I will be back sounds better. then the director said well just say I’ll be back, then. So it was a compromise between the two I guess.
.....my mother was 86, literally on her death bed, some of her very last words in her best 'Arnie voice' were "I'll be back". She had quite the sense of humour, I've still got it on video.
@@arjanpetersenlol, thanks for being a voice of reason. I see these comments building Ahnuld into some super model. Your right. He has ZERO proof and is looking for a cool backstory here
@@Tamarlane389 the Avatar movies made a bunch of money. Man doesn't make flops. You may not like the movie, but it will have been profitable. True Lies and T2 are Cameron at his best as a writer.
@@clanwaddell5628a movie being profitable doesn’t automatically make it good. There has been a lot of cookie cutter garbage that the masses ate up and there are a lot of masterpieces that barely made their budget. Titanic was Cameron’s last great film. He is now an explorer who directs CGI heavy movies when he gets bored.
I think you're right, I had this same thought. Even if he said "I'll come back" like in the script, his presence and delivery probably still would've made it iconic
0:05 The hand movement and lips of the policeman are almost perfectly alligned with the voice of James Cameron. For a second there I thought that cop is correcting Arnold with: "The line is I'll come back...", lol.
Shows you how celebs blow these talk show stories out of proportion. I guarantee James Cameron didn’t say, “what does god d@mn script say? Then say the f’ing line…” The overall story was kinda similar, but Arnold changed it to make everyone sound more badass. When in reality it was just a throwaway line that neither of them got worked up over, or thought that much of.
in the script the line was ‘i’ll come back’ but arnold wanted to say ‘i will be back’ cs it sounds more robotic so james cameron comprised wit ‘i’ll be back’ instead
When Arnold was on the 'Graham Norton Show' he told a story of when the 'Terminator' first came out in NYC - he said a fan came up to him & started asking him to quote the line from the movie - Arnold said 'which line?' & the fan said the 'I'll be back' line - so Arnold said it back to him - who then said 'No, no, no. say it like you did in the movie' & thus a movie quote was born.
I have to agree but I feel like it's just not circulating anymore. I've talked to a fair amount of people and almost no one recognized "Are you feeling lucky...punk?"
"Houston, we have a problem" "You talkin' to me?" "That'll do pig" "Theres no place like home" "Show me the money" "I see dead people" Lots of contenders.
Arnold your the Goat,,, it wasn't the line or words in the script,,,it's how well it was said that made the scene....we all use that line in your honor okay you ole Goat
Check out the audio book- It's different enough from the film. Stephen King's 'On Writing' talked about it, so I put that down, and picked up Misery; The suspense was fantastic. King says that he generally doesn't know how the story will end, as he's writing, so the suspense rubs off on the reader.
he is an infiltration model, if he acted like a machine all the time it defeats the purpose of blending in with humans. hes not robocop, he is the terminator.
James Cameron: " Arnold i dont tell you how to act so dont tell me how to write" Arnold: " Actually your the director so you are telling me how to act"
I like how the police officer in the beginning moves his lips synchronously with the text of the voiceover. Looks like he was trying to correct Arnold to say correct words as they were written in the script)
The line works so well because by the time the police station scene is about to happen you already know that the Terminator is an unstoppable force that is single minded on it's mission and will stop at nothing to kill Sarah Connor. "I'll Be Back" is a clue that something bad is about to happen very soon. First time seeing the movie I knew all hell was about to go off.
I love when I get the chance to use my favorite movie lines in normal conversation & of course make sure to ham it up at least a little. Obv favs include “Get Out” & “stay here I’ll be back” & “chill out dickwad”.
