I would love to see that. In the pre world you don’t have to eat rats.

Honestly, I hate it.

That's lost on someone who basically says " leave your man behind to save yourself girl..." three times when watching the movie : says a lot about a person.

How could she be thinking about him if she didn't even meet him in the timeline the picture was taken. How could John be his son in the future from a past that never happened.

@@SirKolass Terminator seems to imply there is only one timeline. Everything that happened always happened, because if Kyle had never gone back, there would have been no John. It's a closed loop.

@@nickandres7829 it does make you wonder who the very first John was that caused the loop to begin with by beating skynet.

@@SeraphSeph There is no "first" John. There's just John. This is something people get confused about in this movie's version of time (same thing for Interstellar when people wonder who put the gate there).

Yeah its surprising how many people think its because it loses its flesh rather than because it was run over by a fuel tanker.

While it no doubt loses some speed because the metal 'feet' aren't ideal to walk on by themselves and it rather relies on the flesh feet for proper mobility, most of it is indeed the Terminator's already damaged - As said you quite clearly see it limping earlier when it goes to get in the truck.

@@stang5755 terminator 2, the arcade game depicted t-800 endoskeletons being able to run as fast as speeding cars, which would've been terrifying. :(

@@stang5755 You can also see some metal parts sticking out of place on its damaged leg when the endoskeleton is seen for the first time. The shot from the back where the limping leg is shown in a close-up shows what would be the Achilles heel for a human, clearly broken off.

@@STEJTHEGREATEST Wow, nice info. Would make sense, but also terrifying for sure.

And it was basically an Indie film on a shoestring budget. $6.8 Million was peanuts compared to what James wanted to do. But a great cast, sharp cinematography, and a good script made it all work. And I honestly believe that the true mark of a good actor is "can they pull off being a Terminator". Arnie had to utterly stop any and all human reactions and reflexes to sell his character and he did it flawlessly. Robert Patrick pulled it off as well when he portrayed the T-1000 in Terminator 2 (he was so dedicated to the role that he ran 15 miles per day so he could do the foot chases without losing his stoic expression or visibly breathing hard in one take for each scene).

They spent SO much money on the 2nd movie. They had to basically invent new tech for visual effects.

The first one is way better than the second one

@@julenmarcossantamaria2762 100% agree.

@TheKrensada Holy cow! What are the chances I see you here! LMAO

Naw, you mean insurance companies. I got a butt-load of deferments on my student loans until I got a job and paid them off, boi!

Well done!

Trade schools are where it's at!. College degree(s) and an office job is post WWII baby boom propaganda.

This comment is gold :D

I'd say the same thing about tax collectors. And just to spread a little seed I wanna say, Taxation, quite frankly, is Theft.

The only sad thing about it back then was that the TV trailers spoiled the main plot. Well, that and the Boorn to be wild song in the biker bar scene.

The song is Bad to the Bone, George Thorogood and the Destroyers

@@ozymandias1758 OK, my mistake.

@@jasontodd8296 Yeah, and you're definitely NOT spoiling it here, lol. Don't complain about something and then do it yourself.

@@TwitchCronos100 Lol, I'm not. I saw T2 as a kid, long before I saw T1, and I kind of didn't know that Arnie was the bad guy before. And if by this point you didn't know T2's plot... your issue.

& Predator

Also, The Running Man & Total Recall

And Conan

I go back and forth on that, but one thing is for sure, they are a helluva great pair of movies.

When I was a kid, T2 was my favourite. But as an adult I love the desperate circumstances of this one. It's just soooo tense.

@@rayjaymor8754 It's like Alien and Aliens, the sequels were iconic, the originals were small, dark and tense.

Yeah, rock the salad!

Feathered mullets are a privilege, not a right ;)

Please no. The 80s was an extremely bad time for fashion. We all looked like clowns back then.

@@rebeccabailey527 So what, yallz look like clowns today too. Can't even run from the cops cuz your pants are around your ankles for high fashion

@@rebeccabailey527 Not everyone.

I take it thats where they got the idea for the 2nd movie

I have an extended cut that has all of the scenes added in to the movie as a whole. Maybe I will upload it to youtube.

@@skyblue11685 From ADIGITALMAN?

@@skyblue11685 upload it bro

@@peterf08 ok but I can't upload it to RU-vid (copyright laws), I will have to upload it another way soon.

I believe she has seen it. She knew Sarah's son's name is John before anyone said it

@D Z also, at the end she told Sarah to ‘push that button’ before Sarah had gone through the metal press.

​@@DZ-te2zt Uh, she said it literally right after Reese says it.

@@stang5755 uh Reese says Conner. He doesn't say John

​@@DZ-te2zt I hope you're not really that dense. He says "His name is Connor. John Connor." in the film. That they didn't include the audio of him actually saying 'John Connor' right after just 'Connor' in this here edit of the video for RU-vid doesn't change that. There's even a glimpse of 'John Connor' in the subtitles immediately right after he says 'Connor' in this video (15:09/15:10 - blink and you'll miss it). In any case Arianna mentions 'John' only after that in the video. If this is indeed a non-genuine 'first time watching' reaction afraid you're gonna have to do a lot better at trying to argue that assumption than one mention that isn't even out of place. Same for the other guy talking about Arianna mentioning hitting the press button before Sarah goes through the press when in the film itself Sarah accidentally bumps that press button well before then and again this edit just doesn't show that piece of the movie.

Not unlike James Cameron's other magnum opus, "Aliens" (1986).

She's seen it already apparently.

It’s an unpopular opinion but I like the first one better 😬

@@Nic-ye2yz Same..i prefer the darker tone.

@@DirtMaguirk Definitely why I like it more (and the 80's music and synthwave). I liked the horror/love story subtheme as well. T2 is still amazing but I believe so many people like it more than the first only because it's newer and had a much larger budget.

@@Cam-gn6uk Yes, he was. And Arnold originally read for Kyle Reese. The original thought was that as an infiltrator, the Terminator had to be able to walk into a crowd and disappear. There was also a cut sub-plot about the Terminator having to eat to keep its organic components alive.

@@gthewolf7948 You are boring. Not even a good troll.

I mean ... Mostly got manhandled but A for effort

@@S_047 he did better than Bill Paxton and Brian Thompson.

When I was a teenager my sister and I used to do the 20 minute workout. My dad would get mad cause he said we shook the tv. The 80s were a funny time. Also I saw Bess in Friday the 13th part 4.

"Sniff...sob...Ginger!"

@@julienielsen4462 In the 70's and 80's, the shaking of electronic devices, especially when used in conjunction with expletive incantations, was widely known to have magically influential powers, either good or bad, over their performance. Your father was obviously wise and a true man of his times.

The two ways time travel I think can be done effectively are the closed loop like Terminator, and the many-worlds style in Timeline (where there are infinite parallel worlds, so while you can't "go back" to your past, you can go to another world where everything is like ours, but it is in an earlier year).

The weird thing I always found about that scene was, it ends so abruptly. The Terminator looks through the phone book. There must have been a confrontation between him and that big dude, most likely ending with the guy getting beaten to death or just shot. For some reason, that always jumped out at me whenever I watch this movie.

I thought that was HIllbilly Jim but according to IMDB it as a person called John Bristol and that was his last credit. I think we all know what happened to him.

In the old days they made movies for the story. Now they make movies to put women in, to put blacks in, to put gays in... and the story is second. Perfect example is Wonder Woman, the first one was made for the story and is one of the best superhero movies, the second one was made by a feminist to show her views, and was the worst piece of garbage ever filmed.

@@johnmonk66 sad but true

Star wars?

@@S_047 the princess obvi

@@facelift5628 ahh duh. I had a brain fart

Agreed. That is also the reason why classics like this stay classic. And why all but T2, the other sequel movies don't measure up. The effects were on par for those times, but because of a limited budget, the story, acting, and practical effects had to be on point, or as much as possible. Today, all we have is special effects, which aren't special anymore since everyone is doing them. But proper casting, acting, story, and sequences are thrown under the bus. And of course, trying to recapture the genie in the bottle again by rehashing the same story again instead of trying to do something original. T2 ended it perfectly, yet they won't let it rest.

Yep. The big three sequels, Aliens. Terminator 2, Godfather 2 (and Star Trek TNG).

@@onegoodthought6581 Add Star Wars and a couple of other franchises in that as well.

Bull honky. The effects in this movie are at least on par with the low quality garbage being churned out by giant studios today

If you watch he evaluated the station and entry area, and probably decided that he needed more firepower than what he had on him( the Ar-18 and shotgun he stole) and that walking back in so armed would give them too much forewarning, possibly allowing the targets to escape. Crashing the car through gives him full access, and confuses the response just a moment as it comes across as 'accident' not attack. Almost pans out, he nearly gets them.

@@MandoWookie, it was also about the shock factor. He obviously did it so they could not react & arm quickly.

Theatricality and deception are powerful agents, ugh wrong movie. nvm

@@GGGritzer exactly what these infiltrator unit were made for

@@ScreenTalker, you said it. Killed 2 Sarah Connors, got away unnoticed for the most part. Chased by Police (after Kyle & Sarah), got away unnoticed. Infiltrator unit.

Eh, I'm kinda willing to cut Silverman some slack here. He looks like he's been on call for hours and it's really late. Heck, even as he leaves the police station he gets called again.

This Is the most Harrowing part for me aswell, the fear it instills and the utter Desperation from Reece, magnificent cinematography 🤘I also get the same feeling when ed-209 fights Robocop into the stairwell,gritty and RAD🤘

22:23 I also love that that's Franco playing one of the Terminators... probably still him in the silhouette shot with the glowing red eyes.

And that's the reason why the Terminator Franchise exists until now..

Keep in mind, The Terminator as a movie is nearly 40 years old...

@@rayjaymor8754 T2 has gotten so much play everywhere, plus the multiple sequels, in so many venues that for a 'movie-watcher' it just seems unlikely.

That's Arnold's SCHWANZSTUCKER!. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QuHw5ivCs1A.html

@@gthewolf7948 Not you, apparently...🙄

Karate Kid came out that year, too.

@@STEJTHEGREATEST That’s right. And then there’s the George Orwell book. I mean, it’s just a baller year dude… 😂

Twisted Metal 2 and Black were my childhood! Nice to see people remembering.

@@hammokkihermanni550 The original TM was part of my introduction to the PS1, along with Ridge Racer and Loaded (dope as hell game back then). But when TM2 dropped, holy shit dude… that game was my life for SO long, along with the N64, especially Mario 64, WaveRace 64, and Pilot Wings 64.

Yes, the second one is also great, considered to be the best sequel to movie ever made. Shame they never did any Terminator movie after that.

@@KaraokeNig They did. And some of them are still decent. And I know that you were joking. I just hate it when someone pretends that a sequel doesn't exist only because he didn't enjoy it! Whether you like it or not, these movies exist! And they have a right to be part of that franchise!

@@gabe6550 Yeah, what a shame.

Why did I laugh? Why?
