    Terminator 2 originally had an ending where an elderly Sarah Conner is sitting on a bench in Washington DC. She’s watching her now adult son, Senator John Conner playing with her granddaughter.

    • @silvervalleystudios2486

      The reason they scrapped that ending is because they thought it would be too unrealistic for John to become a senator after having been involved in the incident at Cyberdyne.

      And the other reason that they scrapped the good ending was money. By using a more uncertain ending they were able to leave it open for all of the unnecessary further sequels that we've gotten in the three decades since.

      I got a good laugh too, even if I do agree that the best critique is picking apart the product as it proceeds
      Maybe it's overcompensating for the massive defense and slander by influencers and the media? Maybe it's a big grift that people put on because people thrive on negativity? Maybe it's just the norm that we can never return from, who knows really...

      I think you just like the word “underrated.” Just like so many other people on UA-cam. Ghostbusters 2 was not underrated! It got just the amount of credit it deserved… it was a good movie in it’s own right, but paled in comparison to the original movie. And it was way better than any other Ghostbusters movie that came out after it. So I say again, it wasn’t underrated. I strongly recommend that you go to a psychiatrist and cure yourself of this obsession with inaccurately using the word “underrated” so much

    It seemed like the most logical progression in the series. He was too old to fight anymore so it was just logical for Rocky to want to live vicariously through a protege.

    For me is robocop 2. Many people trash on that movie because they claim it retcons robocop acepting he is alex murphy during the beguining of the film but they are skipping the point. At the end of robocop 1 he accepts he is alex murphy, that never changes but now in robocop 2 he has to accept that tho he is alex murphy he still will never be able to have the normal life he had before, when he tells his wife ''alex murphy is dead, i dont know you'' he does that to ease her pain so she can be able to move on by herself, to let the past go and have a chance to redo her normal life, something he cannot do anymore. If you check that clip the moment he says ''i dont know you'' you can feel his pain. Besides many people called stupidly unrelistic how a corrupt corporation managed to put down the local goverment and such goverment looks to the local criminal gangs for help at exchange of freedom and power making them into super criminal organisations. Yea...not soo unrealistic now isnt?

      Sam Raimi admitted that Spider-man 3 sucked when he said, “It’s a movie that just didn’t work very well. I tried to make it work, but I didn’t really believe in all the characters, so that couldn’t be hidden from people who loved Spider-Man. If the director doesn’t love something, it’s wrong of them to make it when so many other people love it. I think [raising the stakes after Spider-Man 2] was the thinking going into it, and I think that’s what doomed us. I should’ve just stuck with the characters and the relationships and progressed them to the next step and not tried to top the bar”

    Little correction on Halloween III.
    Halloween from it's inception was originally intended to be an anthology series, like Halloween 2 was never intended to be made. However with the success of Halloween and with a demand to bring Michael back, they made Halloween 2 to kill off Michael so they could then get onto the anthology, hence where Halloween III then comes in. As for after Halloween III, due to the confusion of not having Michael Myers, lead to it's bombing at the box office and the demand for Michael became higher, after that John Carpenter walked away from the series until 2018 when Halloween (requel) was made.

      That's another one that gets kind of a raw deal. Yes, it doesn't have quite the spectacle of Aliens and retreads some of the ground of Alien. And the creature effects are a little dodgy in places. But as a stripped down, "back to basics" film about a isolated group trying to survive being locked in with the monster it's tone, atmosphere, and style do work. And though it's a little heartbreaking, it does bring Ripley's story what, honestly, was probably its best logical conclusion. Giving her some closure and peace by the end.
      It's nothing we haven't really seen before, but at least it does well.

    Nyah nyah nyah nyah, nah nah... nyah nyah nyah nyah, nah nah... nyah nyah nyah, nyah nyah nah nah nah nah!
    All time classic film theme!
    Oh yeah... Wienstien's company (uhh... Dimension?) has actually rebranded their "Halloween trilogy", with the exception of H20, anyway... so that they are now numbered as follows:
    "Halloween 6 , The Curse of Micheal Myers",
    "Halloween H20: 20 Years Later", and finally
    "Halloween VIII: Resurrection". These are now the official names of these movies.
    And yes... they use Roman Numerals for "Resurrection", while using a regular ol' number for "Curse of Michael Myers".
    I guess were just lucky they didn't change the name of "H20" to "Halloween 7: H20"...

    In his review of the film itself, I do agree it was best not to make a 4th film (for the most part). However, after watching No Way Home, there could be hope for seeing Tobey (and Andrew) again either on another MCU Film or a Solo film.

      I'm not sure I would want to see either Tobey or Andrew as their respective Spider-Men again: It was wonderful to have them come back after so many years, but I'm afraid any further appearances could undo the happy endings they both got. I think it'd be best to let our last memory of their characters be one where they're happy and content, unlike so many other legacy characters Hollywood has mangled and cast out.

It literally a never ending war. What we need is a movie from skynet nuking and then the human survival till john conners father gets sent back in time and then after to set a new time line.
