The Terminator - Nostalgia Critic 

Favorite: T2 Least Favorite: Salvation

“I’ll be back”

The original will always be my favorite

Favorite, Terminator 2 least is Salvation

Yea!!!!!!

sometimes reality really writes its own joks. In fact, i'm of the belief, that if there is a God out there, it's a God that loves irony.

the glove didnt fit *kanye shrug*

@@MouseGoat if it's a God he or she has a sense of humor wrapped up in irony..

To be fair, some of the most infamous serial killers throughout history are usually people you wouldn't suspect. Ever heard of Ed Gein? He's the guy that such films like "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", "Silence of the Lambs" and "Psycho" were based on. The guy literally killed people and wore their skin, yet nobody and i repeat NOBODY suspected him for years, which is why he got away with it. Hell, I saw a documentary on him once, where all the people that used to live with him, in the small town this all took place in, and even said they thought he was the nicest and sweetest guy they ever known. One lady even said she didn't think he could hurt a fly. In fact, some even said in that documentary that they even allowed Ed Gein to BABYSIT their kids on multiple occasions. Kind of scary huh?

And in the current age of machinery replacing human jobs, drone warfare and scientists seeking smart AI, it really does! The more I see this movie, the more terrfying that this kind of reality is a possibility.

+even flow EXACTLY!

@@lenini056 and the MAGA morons love to vote for the people who are all for machinery replacing people, cause its always a sign of high intelligence when you have to hurrrr own da libs by voting for the people who literally could care less about you unless its election time or feed them lies about stolen elections because they know the dimmest low IQ citizens will believe it.

Now I wish NC does Blade Runner (1982). I know there are lot of people who like that movie, but when I saw it in 2017, it felt so outdated and old school. Terminator 1 (1984) however, I thought it holds quite well, but that maybe because I saw it in late 1990s (as in, nostalgia, less picky standard at that time, my age could've been a factor).

All of them do the reboots aren’t bad movies they’re just bad terminator movies

Except he didn't read it as written; in the shooting script it's written as "I will come back."

@@cdawgleelee9572 It's amazing how different those two lines are. The "I will come back" is so void of personality, but also very precise and literal. Very robotic.

Another fact, when Sarah was escaping with Kyle, she looked like she was in pain, and that was because Linda Hamilton was actually in pain, as she had hurt her foot before the film was even in production and it didn't heal. There was also supposed to be a whole sub-plot where the T-800 was cutting into the feet of the Sarahs to find metal screws in them to see if it found the real Sarah Conner.

Good one, thanks 🍻

It's got to have been one of the first sci-fi stalkers

Terminator and Alien are both in the same pool of, Horror turned action that just do nothing but win.

T1 was horror, T2 was boy meets dog.

The last part used to scare the hell outta me as a kid

Well, I always thought of this film as being like a science fiction play on Halloween.

i had a feeling when i saw 16. XD

I FUCKING KNEW IT

Major Metallitron in DB basically was the Terminator.

That explains why Trunks fucked up the timeline so badly.

@@MisterX867 and Android 8 was Frankenstein.

Damn good observation.

Usually people like first two movies, but I accept only first "Terminator". Bad things in T2: Arnolds hair style (imagine robot, who was designed to kill people, every day make his hairstyle, to keep hair stand straight), his leather pants, his "cute" stupidity and smile ("fan service" in next films) and these phrases from previous movie like "Ill be back", "come with me, if you want to live"... T2 is very pop culture. One thing I like in T2 is Robert Patrick. I wish he was in first film as T-800 instead of Arnold (with all respect to Arnold). P.S. Btw you know this meme Chad vs Virgin? In T1 literally virgin (before he did it with Sarah Connor) Kyle Reese defeated Chad terminator. ))

Try Hellen Page in "Super" Spoiler Sploiler Spoiler She is celebrating hitting a bad guy when half of her head is blown off by gunfire

​@@jus_sanguinis You're telling me that you don't "accept" a movie because it has some fan service in it? And then something about Virgin Vs. Chad... you're not making any sense.

@@jus_sanguinis Your ridiculous take on T2 aside, you've got it wrong: it would be Chad Kyle Reese vs Virgin Terminator. That's because when Kyle Reese had "defeated" it, he had already slept with Sarah Connor and the T 800 has never slept with anyone as it's a machine.

If he wanted to show all good scenes this video would have been 1h48minutes

@@Jebu911 and there is really only so much they can show without getting copyright strikes.

Her character arc between this movie and T2, was awesome. She's one of my favorite heroines for sure. Sarah Connor belongs right up there with Ripley

Unlike Sonya that became the complete opposite in the first Mortal Kombat movie

...and evolves into her final form: Jacked Survivalist Sarah Connor

That's why in horror video games the monsters should really run at like 10 FPS whereas everything else runs at 30 or 60, makes monsters more scary when their movements aren't the same speed. Makes it more unnatural.

Man, I wish I felt the same as you. I'm with Doug. The awkwardness of the whole scene just made it feel a lot more obvious how fake the whole thing is. I couldn't take it serious.

@@Kazeromaru That's why I always picture the Necrons in Warhammer 40,000 moving in stop motion.

Plus the terminator was damaged by this point so its awkward movements have justification (though maybe some extra frames of animation per second would've been better?)

@@SakuraAvalon Really? I find the outside stop motion clunky, but once it's inside the dark factory it makes me poop my pants

""You can't dust for vomit." Wonder if they ever had a drummer called Sarah.

The Return Of Godzilla also came out in 1984.

You also have back to the future the never next year.

What the fuck, never lined these movies up with their release dates, 1984 was fucking crazy.

Damn man.....that shit made so much sense I never even looked at it like that

Ahhhh the romance in this just gets me so much! 🥰

I don't think he fell in love with someone from a better era, but rather, like he himself says, a legend. It'd be like someone interested in certain eras of history meeting the likes of Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or the like, except to an even greater degree, as she's from the immediate past with a huge impact on the current world. In the future, John Conner is the hope of mankind, and Sarah is this mythic figure who had the foresight to make him that.

@@Axterix13 I like the idea it's a mixture of both.

That was the point. People were supposed to figure out that Reese loved her in a platonic way before he even met her. John purposely gave him the photo because of that. Some people just interpret that Kyle fell in love with her in just a couple of days if you don’t really pay attention.

He did it in Back to the Future III when he said goodbye to Clara

That's why Back to the future is the GOAT time travel film.

@@zackcross7190 And look how that worked out for him. I mean yes it worked out in the end but she still didn't believe him when he told her.

@@calebmauer1751 That’s the point I’m making

@@zackcross7190 To be fair to Doc, that was a pretty emotional moment for him. He was about to leave the woman he fell in love with behind forever so it probably didn't feel right for him to just leave her without a truthful explanation. He probably also figured he had nothing to lose as it didn't matter in the long run if she believed him or not.

Here is a piece of info I never thought I would need, but know that I have I am somehow grateful for it.

You called being pushed into a fence killed?

Of course Bishop counts, making Lance Henriksen to join the club. Otherwise one could argue Hudson was taken alive to be facehuggered and ended up dying when the planet was nuked, hence not killed by an alien either. So yeah, excluding Bishop makes no sense whatsoever.

@@CometF81 Bishop doesn't count because an alien didn't kill him. Also, as much as the game sucked, we do find Hudson's body in Colonial Marines, he lived long enough to get a chestburster.

Rip bill pullman

The absolute madman

I heard he was really sick, as he was working on a Piranha sequel in Italy. I'd have horrific nightmares too.

And that scene was paid for out of his pocket because the studio wanted it to end at the truck exploding. The genesis of the story was his fever dream of a metal skeleton rising out of fire so it had to be in there to be complete

Avatar is also based on some dreams he had

the setup makes no sense, u cant use tech to go back in time and prevent the same tech to be invented. no skynet no time travel no future and no people to go back in time

The last three kind of addressed this paradox in different ways that I think would've been great if they were handled better and focused on with a bit more nuance than the spectacle of the robots fighting. In Dark Fate, Skynet technically wins by succeeding to kill John Connor. But Skynet becomes some other self aware AI with different abilities. Which means that even though the events of T2 happened, a Skynet of some kind is inevitable, as it's a man made entity in the first place. Then even without John himself, someone will just as inevitably be brave enough to stand up, rally the people and fight back. In Genysis, Skynet also technically wins by capturing and converting John using the time travel as a bait and switch. It used his knowledge of the future and how to win against him due to the fact that he never knew what came next. Things go tits up and the timeline gets refreshed as it corrects itself in the mind of the only (human) person that can remember both timelines. Skynet can't exist without John, so Skynet and John become one in the same. Then there's Salvation which kind of affirms the status quo, and i know I went backwards. But I wanted to mention this one last because I loved the idea that they had in the original, and much darker script. If studio interference hadn't reared it's ugly head, John Conner was actually going to die, and Sam Worthington's character was going to take his place wearing skin modeled after his likeness. Re-contextualizing John's actual importance to the fight against Skynet and retroactively explaining how and why it was so (relatively) easy for "John" to defeat them. As a Terminator, he has all of this knowledge, in site, and access to their systems to be able to infiltrate and destroy them from the inside out. Ultimately, Skynet is the one true architect of both it's creation and destruction.... But we never got that, and I'm salty to this day about it.

Its not really a time loop tho. Its more like in LoK and MiB 3 where the current of time is so strong that even the act of travelling back into the past is part of the intended course of events

There's also the issue of John's conception as a whole. T1 is considered by some a second timeline since John and Reese met in... a Skynet prison iirc? Reese goes back in time and John is conceived , but in the timeline where they met there John's father would have to be someone else since no time travel shenanigan's would be in play yet...

That's kinda the point of T3, that judgment day is inevitable, and why I actually like that film as a closing to the trilogy, as it completes the time loop. The simple fact that John Connor and the previous terminators exist in the present guarantees that this horrific future will always occur.

Wellllll...The first one at least. Lance there got the hat trick too, more or less.

And I’m not sure if ‘thrown into fence roughly’ is a fatal move.

I thought he was supposed to say “I will be back” rather than “I’ll be back” and argued with James Cameron about it.

that's a good fact.

@@paulmccarthy1527 Other way around. He had trouble with the contraction, and didn't want to say it.

Did it have to do with his accent?

If Arnold actually said "I'll come back", then FNAF's similar line will seem more like stealing. FNAF- "I always come back."

@Jaime Cambron Always love Roadrunner jokes. Classic!

Although that seems to be their weakness too. In other movies and the TV show, the moment a terminator IDs John Connor (or Dani Ramos in the Dark Fate film), it just drops everything in an attempt to kill him - drawing attention to itself in the process - instead of taking that information, forming a plan (which needn't be complicated...could be as simple as going up to him, map in hand, to ask for directions), and executing it with the element of surprise.

@@Vistico93 You’re right it isn’t very tactical, but just the thought of an unstopable killing machine being after you is scary in itself I think. Kinda like that scene in Big Hero 6 where Hiro makes Baymax go berserk. Because a robot who is programmed to kill doesn’t stop for mercy or ask questions.. it does exactly what you have programmed it to. Nothing more, nothing less.

I have long said that the Terminator has ridiculous luck throughout the movie.

Walks into a police station dressed like a punk, asking about the attempted victim of a serial killer hours after he shot up a club, all while acting like a deranged person at best. Clerk just ignores it. Yeah, I see getting unduely lucky. "Infiltration unit" indeed. Now the T-1000? That was an infiltrator, even without the liquid metal.

TBF the movie was made and set before the 1986 FOPA, so being somewhat lax about keeping accessible guns and ammo near each other would be understandable; not to mention the racism angle as well, since both the Terminator and the clerk are white. The scene would have to go differently if OJ ended up playing the Terminator, since the clerk would be quite leery of a black man coming in and knowing what guns he wanted.

The Terminator would have just killed him anyway.

FOPA means virtually nothing. Assuming you're discussing the Hughes amendment, that only changed the manufacturing status of automatic weapons. They required additional permission and tax stamps since the NFA of 1934. They weren't really over the counter or the sort of thing you could walk out with the same day. It's one of my big bugaboos about hollywood, right after trigger discipline, you can't just walk into a store and but automatic weapons. Not today (Death Wish 2018) not in 1984 (Terminator) and not since before the second world war. It's like suppressors and SBRs today, sure you gan get them, but after the ATF has taxed you, investigated you, made you wait a year, and still demands you tell the cops if you so much as leave the house with them. It's just annoying is all.

Tracking shot of it's feet as it approaches him then he groans as he falls down, the arm comes down to grab his gun then cut to Patrick as "the cop" as he looks up John Connor

@@smithwesson1896 So in a sense, then yes, the cop could very well have been impersonated by the T-1000.

@@daigneauray7087 Think that would have been an even better reveal?

Though this movie has a few influences from an older movie. 'Westworld' (1973) with Yul Brynner as (spoiler) the killer robot.

It's kinda like with ED 209, the jerky movement and sudden variations in the speed of the movement makes it seem unnatural and scary.

@@azartoth9825 ohhhhh lol than yeah he has

Personally I like to believe that all of the sequels (excluding dark fate since its specifically set after terminator 2) are in the same timeline and that the timeline was a cycle until the events if terminator 2. From T2 onward, you have ripples in the timeline that cause changes. At first by causing judgment day to occur years later, then Skynet having access to advanced technology from its inception, and ultimately to its sending back multiple terminators and a hybrid whos mission was to have the time machine built decades earlier. Makes each subsequent movie feel like the original timeline is getting more and more screwed up by the meddling of Skynet and the resistance.

What sequels? They didn't make anymore after T2. 😉

Namely the butterfly effect, something that most people try to ignore.

@@xscythe67 And also this: Energy cannot be added to or subtracted from a closed system. Time travel intrinsically involves subtracting an object's mass-energy from one space-time and adding it to another space-time. And more than that, objects have inherent electromagnetic, gravitational, chemical and kinetic energy involved in addition to the raw mass and energies involved in regular particle physics. And even if energy is conserved at both ends of travel, information is not. 200kg of metal and flesh would have a mass-energy of under 1,8*10^19 joules. If 100kg of matter and 100kg of antimatter were to combine, that'd be the amount of energy released from the annihilation of the two; the equivalent of 3,5 gigatons of TNT. Or 70 times more power than the strongest nuke ever detonated.

I always felt the strenght of Terminator movies is the horror effect from 1 and 2. But then it became more the action and less the doom of mankind type of effect it had

The spin off "Charred wood" was a bit rubbish. No heat.

"nice screensaver"

Not to mention that he knows it is only a matter of time before the terminator finds them. He is in a rush, hence why he is trying to explain it to the "authority figure" in the room. He also likely is not aware that psychologists exist since all he was taught at a young age is to survive.

This deserves more likes lol

Well, two. Two good movies.

Fucking Wrong!!!

I read that at one point, the cops did manage to catch them filming illegally, so Cameron and his producer had to lie and say that they were graduate students from UCLA working on a class assignment.

Harlan Ellison® begs to differ.

Did you steal that from TV Tropes?!?

I honestly have to say, objectively, Dark Fate wasn't that bad of a movie when considered on its own, it was just a really bad Terminator sequel. Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad if John was still alive, even if they saved him for the next one. Some series' you can pull this crap with & it's fine. Ironically, given the subject matter, Terminator is not one of them.

jeez, you think that people would catch on that late night snacking can increase probability of nightmares, least something great came out of that.

SCHWARZENEGGER was not the profiled actor back then we know from later years. I mean look we had there an Austrian " Muscle Mountain ", Mister Universe from the competition in Munich 1973 who wanted to come out big in the USA without much acting knowledge from start. So it is no wonder the man came over here just like some walking bulldozer.

Agent Smith: Cookies need love like everything does.

@@robbieking4070 I thought of exactly that too. Nice.

I've read the script for T1 a few times and those two characters were pretty interesting. Everyone was much younger as well, which made the drama hit different.

Though both Hamilton and Biehn were both 28 at the time of filming, Sarah was supposed to be a 19 year old college student/waitress, while Kyle was around 22. Hamilton had been a heavy smoker, and her voice seemed a lot deeper in Children of the Corn, released earlier than the Terminator. I wonder if they altered her voice.

@@Recidivous he liked T2, he hated the later sequels.

@@louisduarte8763 You can make something and still not like the end product.

@@Markimark151 You know why, right? Because 2 was the end to the series, he intended. He said so in several interviews. In fact, his original ending is set in the early 2010s, with John s a father, playing with his daughter, in a park, and Sarah watching them, with an internal monologue. On it she brings up 29 August, 1997, and the bombs not falling, and John still fighting the machines, as a congressman, using his votes to keep humans making the calls in military matters, rather than AI and machines. Test audiences hated it. That's why we got the open ending to T2. Because no one could swallow the other ending. It also led to more sequels. If you ever want to see it, look for the T2 Ultimate Edition, and select the extended version. When it comes up, use the number keys on your remote, to enter 8, 2, 9, 9, 7. It opens up the Easter egg third version, with the alternate ending. The way the theatrical cut ends, it left too many loose ends, that made more of the story need to be told.

Fair, pint, but at the same time, 'It's body armor, it's armor that goes on your body' should be obvious at least.

Exactly, that's one of the worst and scariest future ever shown on screen as far as I'm concerned. Just imagine not being the apex predator any more and just be an endangered species... as human beings we have never faced this situation. It's like returning to stone age but with even less chances to survive.

@@valentinbalbinot5054 It's pretty bleak, but a daycare compared to Threads. Which is a pretty low budget made for tv film giving a realistic portrayal of a nuclear holocaust and that ending is depressing.

Hmm, I never realized that this could be a horror movie, but when you hear the description of the terminator it surprisingly works

Terminator 1 can definitely be categorized as a horror film. Great action, suspense, dark atmosphere, and music sounds condemning! My favorite out of the 6 mainline films. 2 in comparison seems campy and cheesy.

Something about that slightly damp looking concrete at night just screams 80's gritty city. I also like the blue lighting themes of T2 in the city and industrial settings, seems to be more 90's somehow.

The cops was probably investigating the murders by the terminator earlier. If someone saw the terminator without the clothes and reported it the cops could of thought that Kyle was him.

Not per se. I watched He-Man and there was no episode that discussed economics. However, considering the sheer amount of toys that were produced, there was a Reaganomics episode in every toy store.
