TERMINATOR SALVATION (2009) MOVIE REACTION!! - First Time Watching! 

This was an interesting movie! Very different feeling than the first 3 films... 🤖 EARLY ACEESS and FULL LENGH REACTIONS to Terminator 5 and 6 on our Patreon! www.Patreon.com/raggedypack Join our growing community here discord.gg/HQFtGkCf37

In my opinion, the best adult version of John Connor is this one by Christian Bale

RIP Anton Yelchin.

The thick terminators that walked around with the mini guns were T-600.

I just realized something: at the beginning of T2, they show future John with a face scar. He got that face scar at the end of this movie when the T-800 ran it's hand down his face. It's in the same place.

Sam Worthington was killing it at the time when he had this and James Cameron's Avatar (he plays Jake Sully) come out in the same year

"Unfortunately it's a Jeep. You'll never get it running" A true believer of 'it's built Ford tough!' Blake does not approve 😂

I know a lot of people crap on all of the terminator sequels after T2, but I really like Salvation. They broke out of the time travel mold and tried to do something different. After T1 and T2 this is my favorite. T3 could have been good, but they didnt want to take it serious...too goofy at times. The movie was ok...ending saved it from being bad in my opinion.

This was one of Stan Winston's last films as he did the makeup effects for the franchise. He passed away from blood cancer in 2008 during production at 62 and it was dedicated to his memory.

Also no one ever catches onto the scene where he hacks the motorcycle, the song he uses as bait is the same song him and his friend listened too in terminator 2

This is the movie where Christian Bale had that infamous on-set freak out at the cinematographer and the audio recording of it was ‘leaked’ online. Family Guy did a parody sketch of the recording where Bale is shouting at Peter Griffin. 😂

Arnie was governor of California when this was made, and he couldn't be in it. That's why his name wasn't in the credits.

The T-600s were the early infiltration units that Kyle Reese talked about in T1. Specifically he talked about their rubber skin and being easy to spot, and how they were way easier to kill than the new T-800s. I think this movie did a great job of portraying the 600s based off Kyle’s brief description.

Despite its flaws, this was better than expected. Anton Yelchin nailed a 17 year old Kyle Reese.

This movie is a gem i love it to me this is the best sequel ater 2

The Terminators that John was fighting at the beginning of this film as well as the one on the street that was shooting at Marcus were T-600 series Terminators. Reese talked about them in the first film when he said, "The 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy." Such a shame. Salvation was suppose to be the beginning of a new trilogy that tells the story of the rise of the resistance and the ultimate defeat of Skynet, but it just didn't make the money and they abandoned the trilogy in favor of what I consider to be an ultimately terrible path. Since John realized in this film that the T-800s are being created much earlier than his mother told him about it means the time line had been altered. I always thought it would've been cool if this future trilogy ended up being the ultimate way to make judgement day and the rise of the machines never happen. I imagined during the trilogy someone in the resistance like a scientific expert discovers that Skynets plan to send the Terminators back in time to end Connors existence had a secondary purpose. Upon the success of their primary mission, ending Connor, they would then proceed to their secondary mission, Ensure the creation of Skynet. It is then discovered that if they actually prevent Skynet from sending ANY of the Terminators through time it will prevent Skynet from every existing. However John and the Resistance are left with a sort of dilemma. If they stop Skynet from sending any of the Terminators back, thus ending it's creation they also end everything as it is including John himself. At the end of the trilogy, John makes the decision to literally sacrifice his existence to prevent it all from ever happening. No one will ever know because no one will ever know he existed.

I really didn't like this film initially, but after the rest of the franchise came out, it's jumped up my list significantly. It's the only sequel that really tried something different.

fyi : T-800 made of metal that cannot be destroyed by artillery fired by John Connor, The android frame that Connor shot was a T-600 model made of ordinary iron, a beta version of the T-800

Arnold was a governor at this time

Marcus is a hybrid, he still has all his internal organs, and the memories of who he was..He's basically human, but with a terminator skeleton instead of a bone one, he feels pain too, just right in the moment of injury, doesn't linger like it would for humans/animals

This movie is freakin Sick, i don't Care what some people say. Yeah, Markus carried This for sure, Not Only him But The acting of The cast in This was Great

LET'S GOOOOO!!! I BEEN WAITING SO PATIENTLY 😂 THIS MOVIE IS SO UNDERRATED. IT TOOK TIME FOR THIS MOVIE TO GROW ON ME BUT IT'S PROBABLY ONE OF MY FAVORITE FILMS. THE CINEMATOGRAPHY AND THE QUALITY WAS SO AWESOME!! ❤

This terminator movie is completely in the first time-line as the trilogy, prouve that in the second and third movie flashback we can see the injuries that Connor get in his face by T-800 here

If the finale felt a bit off is because it was rewrite on a rush. The original script leaked to the internet and they were doing some (big) damage control. In the original John dies but as very few knew his face for the sake of people's hope Marcus takes his place. So from that point on the john Connor that fights the machines is secretly a machine himself. The end

The machines at the beginning were T-600s, the first T-800 seen in the movie isn't until the end when CG Arnold appears.

One of the most underrated action movies ever

The guy at 12:51 is Czech actor Ivan Šplíchal ( Ivan G'Vera ) I'm so proud, I'm Czech

I don't care anyone says turn your salvation as a guilty pleasure For me personally

Skynet losing because it developed an ego is goofy I do love how they have the melting Terminator hand causing the scar John has in T2's intro and the idea that the mass produced terrible terminators wear clothes to look humanish from a distance to trick the resistance into getting close or revealing their position

In my opinion, Terminator Salvation is the best.🤩

Nice little detail at 36:48, the music that Connor is opening on the radio to lures in the moto-terminator is the same one he listens to at the beginning of Terminator Judgement Day Gun n' Roses - You Could Be Mine

The bulky Terminators in the wastland were T-600s. The Terminator is being made in the factory were T-700s mechanically identical to the T-800 but as intelligent as the T-600 when alone. The Terminator that was fighting Marcus was the T-800 prototype. John Connor in T-3 was killed by a T-850 but that was a different future so who knows if that will happen in Salvations future.

Ending of third movie was not only obvious but also necessary. Sara knew about skynet from guy that used skynet technology to get to her. Rhys could fight against terminator thanks to the technology build by skynet. Connor was born thanks to technology created by skynet. Even if we asume that Time machine will be created by someone else then... what for someone should go back and try to prevent existence of something that not exist? And if nobody go back in time... then skynet will exist.

If I remember correctly, the original ending was supposed to have Marcus's character get a facial transplant to be John Connor since Bale's character was supposed to die, but this allowed John to 'live' on and continue the fight against the machines, with only the close circle of people knowing the truth. I thought it would have been an amazing twist on the franchise, but I still love the movie regardless. Wish they made sequels to this movie instead of the other attempted ones they tried after this.

A lethal injection death is actually a series of injections usually 3 or 4 injected at a particular time after the other. It usually has three or four different drugs since one drug may kill but it might not and still be very painful in the process. To make sure the person is dead and NOT in pain three or four substances are used .

In a real world scenario where this happens it makes sense that the military would lead the fight against Skynet they would not trust a civilian

Hey hey I've been checking back here for the last few days in anticipation for your T4 review. Well done guys as you are the best Terminator reactors on RU-vid. If you guys haven't already reacted to the Underworld franchise then I'd gladly tune in.

27:17 -Oh he's got a heart? Interesting, what the sound of his heart🤔 -Da-da-da-da dum, da-da-da-da dum 😁

Arnold Schwarzenegger hated this movie, because they never asked if he would come back to the role, as he retired from acting to become governor of California from 2003-2010. He said in an interview, while promoting TERMINATOR: GENISYS, that "It sucked, it missed the boat by a mile, it had interesting characters and a great premise, but the ending was just awful."

This is the only sequel after T2 that tried to do something different.

It’s been 14 years since Terminator 3

McG was involved with tv show Charmed. Also that incident with Christian yelling at the lighting assistant went viral.

Yes!!! Been waiting for you to watch Salvation. I love Sam Worthington in this. If you haven't seen his MAN ON A LEDGE (2012) Crime/Thriller, it's totally worth a watch. He's great in the lead. 🤩

Also Arnold couldn't be in this movie with a speaking part because he was GOVERNATOR at the time and wasn't allowed to act while in office.

Apparently, the true ending to this was that John dies and Marcus takes over (as figurehead?), wearing John's skin! I can't remember if it tested badly or if it came from the top, but it got changed into what we see in the theatrical cut. Either way, i loved this film, and the sound design in particular was just incredible!

10:17 May have been a Neutron Bomb rather than a Nuke, Fission-Based rather than Fusion-Based.

I really liked the Terminator and their variants. The T-600(?) that Marcus encounters when he gets to Los Angeles is CREEPY/SCARY/FORMIDABLE AF. It looks more monstrous than mechanical. The HK variants and their modular terminator killer motorcycles are such a cool concept. I agree with you all, it was a solid entry. The unexpected inserts of Blake in this reaction and your T2 reaction.😂💀

Skynet infiltrated Cojo's camera. And Blake's look during the edit is hysterical.

everytime they go back in time they change the future, t1 was the 1st time they went back, even tho we havent been told we know the og timeline kyle never went back and john was born normally and became the leader and was winning, then kyle went back and the og john no longer existed instead the child of sarah and kyle was born and they gave him the same name and now kyle will forever be his pops and we may never kow the og father. this is a great universe to explore, love time travel

Arnie wasn't in this one, cuz at that time he was governor and as a politician not allowed to be in movies. Nor would he have had the time, I assume. They cgi'd his face on to a bodybuilder's body, who stood in for Arnie's T-800.

Anton Yelchin (Kyle Reese) died in 2016 he was a very talented actor at this time.

Fun fact: Marcus officially lived on without his heart and aided John Connor in assisting Skynet defeating a rogue and psychotic Terminator that threatened the existence of Skynet itself--thus ultimately defeating it and creating peace with, well, Skynet.

48:20 Cojo--bro looks like he smelled his own fart and is thinking, "Did something crawl up my butt and died"?

One of the better Transformer movies

Despite not being as good as its predecessors, Salvation was a decent sequel. The film moved forward with the story and has good action scenes. I just thought they gave too much importance to Marcus, instead of focusing more on John Connor. And I also thought there was a lack of further development regarding Resistance. Furthermore, I liked the references, especially when Connor says "I'll be back" and then we have the scene where "You Could Be Mine" plays, which is the main soundtrack for Terminator 2. And of course, the scene where "Schwarzenegger" appears is the icing on the cake. Very nostalgic. Between mistakes and successes, Salvation showed potential for more films set in the future. It's a shame it wasn't as well received.

You guys would probably love Helldivers 2 Automaton missions, it’s very Terminator and y’all can play on a team.

They apparently had another ending in mind ,john died & they transplant his face on markus to continue the fight in his name ,gowing for a "the hybrid who was part human part machine defeated skynet in the end" I supose, also allegedly another version of that was ,markus goes on a rampage after receiving the new face & kills them all 😅

As I understand it Lethal injection is always three syringes. Sedation, paralysis and one to stop the heart 😔🇬🇧

there was a big story about Christian Bale going off on producers berating them, the audio is on youtube.

Dudes.... Arnold was too busy being Governor of California, hence he couldn't be cast in this one.... But in true Arnie style..... " I'll be Back ! "

44:27 THE CLAAAAAAAAAAAAW!!!

It's a pity that they didn't follow up with two more Terminator movies following this one. With the sixth and final one being set in final days of the war and ending with Kyle Reese being sent to the past to stop the Arnie Terminator kill Sarah Connor, and in the post credit, the resistance sent the reprogrammed T800 back to 1995 to protect John Connor. Ending the franchise in bootstrap paradox which makes T1 a sequel to T6.

T-600 attacked John near the beginning.

I've seen every Terminator in theaters from T2-T5. Whatever you do, for the love of God, don't watch Genisys.

Arnold didn't appear in this film because he was the Governor of California at the time

they missed the "easy money" line when he hacked that bike-anator : P

I like this one, sick movie and it actually looked good

I always felt that this was the best Terminator sequel after T2, it was supposed to be a trilogy and would tell the story of the future war and ultimately destroy Skynet but of course Hollywood panicked because of mixed reviews and box office sales even though this movie did pretty well at the box office, they ended up scrapping the entire idea all together which leaves this movie in limbo and most people are undecided if this should be considered part of the Timeline and it doesn’t help that Christian Bale was accused of being abusive to the filmakers and crew on this production with there being leaked audio of him being an asshole to his director of photography just because he wanted to adjust a lighting fixture lol

Awwww sh1t... I'd forgotten 😢 R.I.P Anton Yelchin

So, in the Terminator Lore (from co-ordinating the average data from comics, books. movies, and tv) the models of evolution are; T-1 basic human-sized tank-tread drones. T-100 basic human shape infantry unit. T-300, T-400, T-500 are various forms of Heavy Chassis Unit, T-600 First of the Endo Skeletons, but they are built as massive guard with Gatling gun. They were easy to spot as infiltrators, as they wore rubber skin and were obvious, due to their size. T-700 Were tall human sized, had a darker metal due to their cobalt-titanium crossed chassis. The first true infiltrator. Good at short term mission, but the red glare of their eyes, and lack of fully realised flesh, led to rotting of the skin after barely-a-month. T-800 The Governor we know and love. Is a Triple-Armoured Hyper-Alloy Combat Chassis. (hence the size) Has full HUD Analytical Display, a fully functioning Flesh which stays can, apart from heavy lacerations/deep massive wounds, can stay fresh for decades, sweats and bad-breath. Arnie label as an T-101 is both erroneous and true. The 101 is in reference to the appearance of the skin it wears: T-800 Make of Endo-Skeleton - Series Model of skin [1-(first) - 01] (Arnold Schwarzenegger) All other Makes of T-888s, T-8xxs, T-900s were all slightly slimmer in design, but also retains their Heavy Chassis. Obvious to Terminator Units being reprogramed, Skynet creates more advanced models who are able to terminate other machines. The various models of larger Tanks, Mechs, and Aircraft are know collectively as HKs - Hunter Killers. Due to Alternative Universes created by the Time Travel nature of the franchises plot, there are always mods or conflicting intel.

He threw the phone at the crew during this.

Just a minor request. I think you guys should turn the movie volume up a little during the dialogue. Sermed harder to hear than other vids, or it's an issue on my end. Glad you enjoyed the movie! It's not the best in the franchise but my personal fav after 1&2.

I’ve heard that in the original ending John was supposed to die and Marcus would take his place as”John” to fulfill his destiny.

The look of concern on Igli's face ❤. And you guy's reaction to the giant one...What?! 😂 so silly.

The original cut had them put John's brain in Marcus' body so Sam Worthington would've played Connor as a human Terminator in the next movies. Test audiences hated it so they redid the end and added scene's emphasizing the heart. They also redid the first T-600 Marcus encounters, originally it's face had the plastic skin Reese mentioned in the first movie. Look up T-600 and you'll see shots of it. I think it looked much more bad-ass.

I don't know why so many people hate on this movie.. imo this is the best after terminator2. I also like that Connor is the side charector instead of the main.

Knee pad assassin's 😂

Arnold was governor of California when this movie came out. During his political career he stepped away from Hollywood.

People who defend part 3 always say, "The car chase is good.........".

OpenAI Sora, very interesting times ahead. We're all gonna be making our own terminator movie

Granted Ive not seen Sam Worthington in anything beside this and Avatar I dont get why he isnt a bigger star. I thought he was by far the best performance here in terms of nuance and believability.

So if you think Gensis is the last movie, does that mean you're not going to do Dark Fate? Also one of you mentioned you don't know how lethal injection works. Injection 1 puts you to sleep, injection too paralyzes you, injection 3 goes directly into the heart to induce a heart attack.

I'd have to go back and analyze/watch-closely/take-notes to understand the full timeline and all of its various small intricacies fully, but generally, my understanding is this: terminator timeline: (WIP, still got to do a lot of actual research/analyzing of all of the movies very closely/meticulously, lol) (beginning) Terminator: Salvation: Marcus was the very first terminator ever created by skynet (not sure if that bald "cold dead: so this is what death feels like" cancer female was the real/actual "skynet" or not, as the first machine, which would make, Marcus the 2nd machine, created just like her, a human-machine hybrid. I do personally think that the real skynet is in fact that bald "cold dead" cancer female, already hiding as a man/woman machine, while the AI/"program" and so-called "skynet" of cyberdyne, is just that, an AI/program, as a diversion, to get humans to focus on it, while skynet is actually merged with a human body, walking around, just like Marcus would be so), using him (as a death row convict) to "donate" his "organs"/body for "science"... for cyberdyne, which was just a private company at the time/originally, as after dead Marcus is made into a terminator, the movie tells us that the US military than buys cyberdyne for its "advanced AI", for skynet and the lab where dead Marcus was turned into a terminator, would get "abandoned and lost" with time, only to be "rediscovered" (intentionally by skynet) by the resistance and john conner, years after judgement day, as seen in this movie whether skynet deems humans as "expendable" or not, is not so clear, skynet/machines may actually require humans, with man-machine being superior to mere machines, but regardless of this... it still had the effect, of uniting humans (john conner and kyle reese) and machines, through marcus, that humans and machines can work together, against machines... marcus is the reason arnold in T2 and T3, and john conner (and his wife ), are "buddies", sending arnold back in time, to protect john conner in T2 and T3, despite that arnold (supposedly) kills young adult john conner (T3) in T3's "original" timeline (as arnold got "killed" by the terminatrix and reprogrammed to kill john conner, with him attempting to do so near the end of T3 with them trying to start and then fly away with the helicopter-plane off to the bunker, with arnold slamming john conner onto the car, "supposedly" killing john conner, or did he actually self-terminate himself in the original timeline as well, as seen he did in the T3 movie's current timeline, the messy-ness of trying to use time travel in stories, lol), with john's wife, (re)-reprogramming arnold, sending him back in time to the beginning of T3, to protect john conner, and maybe also sending arnold back in time to T2 to also protect kid john conner, as well after T4, we then get T5, with the time travel machine, which then enables the all of the time traveling that occurs within the terminator franchise (T 1-6)... possibly "starting" with kyle reese as the first (human-side) volunteer going back in time (to T1) to protect sarah conner, and knock her up with his future-to-be-son, john conner, and then kyle reese dies (if I remember T1's ending, lol), but Sarah Conner is knocked up with john conner, so kyle reese's death in T1 (again, if it does happen), doesn't matter, as resistance john conner in T4, will meet his future-to-be-father, a young adult/old-teen kyle reese, whom will grow into a soldier, through him meeting marcus and their trials, and then shortly with him meeting john conner and all of their trials, all in T4, with this young-adult/old-teen kyle reese of T4, having no idea that john conner is his son, while john conner, a full adult, knows that this young-adult/old-teen kyle is his father... now, who is john conner's wife (in T4) pregnant with... is it baby kyle reese (lol)... or baby sarah conner (hmm)... or just someone else... I can't remember if the movie ever mentions who is john conner's son... argh... (taking a break, as this is really complicated, and again, I'm just doing this stuff on the fly, need to go back and really watch and analyze all of the movies)

Heehee them future warfare penguins 🐧 gotta watch out for . Love y’all’s reactions as always. Gentlemen of raggedy pack looking very handsome as well ❤😉 🤖

Great timing drop across the pond lads I'm 45 minutes late 💯 Salvation is a Good film

Terminators are the prequels to the Matrix

Much needed to today. Thank you for the content!

this movie is fire, for me better the terminator 3. of course its not as as epic as the two first ones, but still good imo, i get it why some people hate it, its probably cus they compare it with the two fisrt ones.

Awesome reaction of my favorite Terminator movie!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

I think that Salvation may be the best sequel of this franchise after T2... I like T3, it's funny and entertaining, but this one takes place in that apocalyptic future that they only have shown in bits and pieces. It tries to be different at least.

One of my favorites

Awesome , Greetings from Finland

I really loved this movie and wish they stuck with the planned trilogy for this arc. One note: I always love a Director's Cut and enjoy all the extra violence and extended battles that this one gave us but I have to say the tit's in the rain scene with Bloodgood is the only part I take issue with. It's not in the theatrical version and just seems awkward when added here. Like they just shoehorned it in for tit's sake. Even you guys seemed surprised by it like..."ok...that was a scene" lol. It also takes away some of the innocent tenderness shared soon after that when they cuddle to stay warm and she listens to his heartbeat.

Great reaction guy’s! Don’t forget Terminator :Dark Fate (2019)😊

This movie seemed to get bad review and a lot of hate but I always really enjoyed it. Remember seeing it in theater

lethal injection is actually a high sodium compound, imagine salt water being pumped innto your arm

TOXIC AVENGER (1985)

The nice thing about a time travwl franchise is that the plot is irrelevant.just take a premise and run with it to see what plays out. What Is, What Was, What Could Be, What Will Be, and WTF. Hope to see you checking the Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles if you want more of the better content.

Not a spoiler, but just so you guys aren't completely confused when you finally get to Dark Fate (because, I'm presuming you're doing all of these), that film acts as a direct sequel to Terminator 2, ignoring the rest of the franchise. So don't expect a follow up on Genysis. Unless, of course, you edit these well in advance. 😶

We thought that was Arnie in his 1984 guise but clever CGI.
