Your foster parents are dead
Bubbles this post deserves more likes 👍🏾
Take a hike bozo !
Your franchise is dead.
actually the T-1000 kills Wolfie in the Directer's Cut u_u
Remember the T2 live action show from Universal Studios? Some say the film segments of that show, which were directed by Cameron and starred all the main players of T2, is the true spiritual successor of T2. Having seen that while it lasted I have to agree. It was amazing they got back the entire crew to film a 12 minute segment for an amusement park attraction, and it was awesome!
what live action show? cannot find anything on it
that was my favorite show of the park. Can you believe it has been replaced by a minions ride?
I remember that
@@karelbilek9121 it was a live show you could watch at Universal Studios the theme park with actors and pyrotechnics. I probably haven’t seen it in 10 years so I don’t remember exactly how it went. You can probably find a video of someone recording it
It's always interesting to have Arnold in my class.
I could watch and listen to James review a blank canvas. I love your reviews!
Maybe it's because you're so passionate about film, but they're so entertaining to me.
Keep it up!
that explains so well what i feel.i could listen to him all day long.What a legend!
This was not a review. This was nothing more than a complete recap of each movie's plot. Really pointless.
Was just thinking the same. I was like dang, I missed listening to videos like these; can't wait for Monster Madness!
RIP Monster Madness :(
Rejoice, Son of Master Madness is coming.
Terminator 2 has one of the best intros in movie history.
Love the symbolism of the four horsemen on the playground
In the intro you see four flaming rocking horses on the playground
Electric Tears it's like Riders of the apocalypse :)
GOAT intro.
frothfrenzy goat.... it's the best movie ever made... hands down
When the Terminator says "I know now why you cry, but it's something that I could never do" I think that it symbolizes not only that the Terminator has learned the value of human life but also that maybe the Terminator wishes that it could be human itself and not just a machine.
I literally searched "Terminator Cinemassacre" a few hours ago to see if you had any related content, and then this gets uploaded out of the blue. Fate.
NO FATE
No fate but what we make for ourselves.
Judgment Day is inevitable, my friend
My pals!!!!
Sure, just via Skynet.
I just realized, this is all image, unlike the original videos. Probably because of the bullshit UA-cam policy now
I disagree about Sara's arc in T2. I thought the obvious point was that she was becoming increasingly cold, mechanistic and unconcerned with human life, something she only realizes when John stops her from murdering Miles Dyson. For a moment, Sara WAS a Terminator herself. This process is directly contrasted against scenes of the T-800 learning from John how to be and act more human.
Speaking of T3, even though I also stick up for it being a really fun movie, it's a massive regression in almost every respect.
He loves to participate when he knows the answer.
They don't make action movies like these any more they are the coolest
Michael Switzer try the edge of tomorrow
Edge of tomorrow is a really good underrated movie!
Buxenwolf the tom Cruze movie yes I seen it and it was good I dug it a lot
+Michael Switzer
It's also one of the few good movies based on a manga
TheFVguy wow I didn't know that I'll have to check it out
Reason Terminator 2, Aliens, Abyss have so much value and are so rewatchable is due to the amount of detail and production Cameron puts into his projects all besides Piranha 2 The Spawning.
Overclocked User Avatar is ass.
Tubeite exactly why it was not listed above lol.
Don't forget Titanic, bro. Come on, it's a great film too! :)
As if Piranha 2: The Spawning isn't the best flying fish monster movie ever made.
Brandon Polk lmao I'm not gonna argue with that one!
Terminator 2's special effects were done the right way. Cameron built a good story and interesting characters around the special effects instead of wrapping special effects around a turd. Unfortunately, he went the opposite direction with Avatar.
AquaDump Entertainment Avatar had a good storyline I thought that movie was shit and never bothered to watch it but I was wrong it's a really good movie.
Sucks that he can't add the movie clips like in his original reviews
I'm actually scratching my head over this. Doug Walker can still use movie clips like he's been doing since 2007 but James can't!?!
100% agreed
It makes no sense and it's so frustrating
I hate it, too. Gives me Plumbers Don't Wear Ties vibes.
As a teacher, I like to focus a lot on Arnold.
Terminator: awesome movie.
Terminator 2: arguably even better.
Terminator 3: average action movie.
Terminator Salvation: cool premise, but faulty realization and got spoiled by the trailers.
Terminator Genisys: complete mess.
T2 and Genisys were ruined by the trailers as well (although T2 is so great it didn't really matter). Seems to be a running theme with the franchise
MrNegativecreep07 yeah, but T2 is still enjoyable either way, and Genisys is not enjoyable either way.
I agree T2 is a brilliant film, even if I prefer the darker tone of the original. Genisys was a complete mess that felt like bad fan fiction
MrNegativecreep07 it honestly felt like the fanfiction I used to write at 6 years old, when Terminator 2 came out.
ther not going be tirogy you can do the seires with out maing u hwo start it out no Arnold no teemrnaoty it not like eh be doig 3 of them so sieres wodo bomb die off with him
what is this "trilogy" you speak of? there are only two Terminator movies.
James Cameron is working on a new trilogy
Yes and boy howdy how exciting. I mean Avatar - woo hoo, amirite?
News says Tim Miller (Deadpool) will be directing it too.
There is only one, the second one!
There are only two alien movies, too.
Terminator is much more like a horror movie + science fiction.
Terminator 2 is action + science fiction.
Terminator 3... um comedy?
Action/comedy
His spelling is improving steadily, and he learns quickly from my spelling corrections.
This made me realise that James never ever talked about The Matrix, arguably the political sci-fi thriller of the new generation. What is James' opinion of the Matrix?
That's a great question, I'm actually curious how he feels about a few other movies from that late 90's time too, such as Fight Club.
SEGAClownboss he isn't a big fan
SEGAClownboss funny you should ask lol
SEGAClownboss ....lol watch the new vid he uploaded today
He talks about The Matrix in the video of films he doesn't like.
The reason why we got the third movie because Arnold had his arm crushed in the second one by a machine while battling the T-1000
yet they didnt explain that, instead it was like "Skynet still wins, get your ass to the shelter!"
Well, that's the in-world reason, the actual reason is money.
T2 imo is the greatest Sci Fi movie of all time. The cast. The practical effects. The story. The action. Literal perfection. The cinematography is underrated too.
I love the blue sky and nice sunny day in Terminator Salvation. It's a really good depiction of nuclear winter. Good writing.
Salvation, "I won't say too much, coz I don't want to spoil it" then shows Sam Washington's face is part machine, a few years late but found that funny.
"I welcome another Terminator flick everyday!" Wow, how the times have changed...
As long as he focuses in class, Arnold will improve rapidly.
"F*** You, A**hole." Definitely one of the funniest lines uttered out by Arnold Schwarzenegger. XD
I can never unsee Kyle as NES cover snake 😂
Poltergeist (1982) was only PG, and it had the face peeling scene and rotting corpses and all kinds of 'mature' horror.
R. H. Bcuz 1982 was b4 PG-13 was a think and it wasn't bad enough to b R
wasnt that rating introduced sometimes around 1984 85?
I really hate the aesthetic of Terminator Salvation. Instead of a blue, gloomy future set in urban areas, everything is a bright, colourless desert.
Well it is a post-apocalypse. What do you expect? This is realistically done.
@Wylvien T1 and T2 future scenes are far ahead in the future, compared to T3. Things keep getting worse every year.
The stop motion effects in The Terminator chill me to my core
I can see her use new words she has learned in class constantly.
the soundtrack in T2 was awesome as well. Can never go wrong with AC DC
Um, the song used in the movie was by Guns N' Roses....
I rarely have any problems understanding his English speaking.
And takes the place the place of his father
Pipe down James
I love you, Nitro Rad.
There's a band called Wolfies Just Fine that has a concept album where all the songs revolve around movie sequels. The Terminator 2 song is called Todd and Janelle
As far as the R rating goes a lot of kids still watch those movies when I was little. I got to watch Terminator 2 and RoboCop at 4 years old and I freaking loved them
I'm always happy to see him be friendly with the other students.
Wait... Decepticons and Skynet, that's a scary combination
Am i the only one who prefers t1 over t2?
I like 1 over 2 but I like the second 1 too
No T1 is arguably better. Fans who think T2 is better are more than likely the sci-fi action blockbuster crowd.
I prefer T1. Its dark and menacing.
@@GooseGumlizzard in your opinion, but t2 is kinda better
James Ch no I prefer two but both rock
I'd be interested to see if your opinion on T3 has changed since originally making this review. I remember hating it when I saw it in the theaters, but seeing it again now, it's much worse than I remembered.
Without that crane scene, it's pretty much 100 percent garbage.
The crane scene was the lamest part, there was some good stuff in there, definitely the 3rd best in the franchise
Mr. Joy yeah man its horrible man
Bara FTW I mostly hate it because of how much it undermines the ending to T2. They prevented judgement day, the end. That's why most of us pretend the series ended there.
My 10 year old self snuck into T2 on opening week at a 1pm showing with a best friend, was a great exp!
The GnR track was lit af at the time!
I love when he gives his answers in the classroom.
I saw T2 in the theatre recently.... And the scene where the shrink told Sarah her son was missing and showed her the photos.... The shrink says "I know you know who this guy is".... And as an adult, I almost laughed because it suddenly clicked that "I've been telling all you assholes for a decade and NOW you ask me?" should have been her response.
When he is confident about the answer, he loves to participate in class.
The best part of T3 was the ending, after watching the movies over an over for years that bittersweet ending when John becomes leader of the resistance and the nukes start to fall
I feel Terminator 3 is pretty underrated.. seriously not a bad way to end the trilogy..
Do an "It" (2017) review!
Göte Borgare an*
Matthew Walters no he is talking about the movie it the horror movie
hunter 99 Yes I fucking know
Matthew Walters Better? Sorry for me bad english
Göte Borgare It's fine but the other persons reply was a little stupid.
The Terminator was more like a sci-fi thriller has a little bit of horror slasher elements embedded within. T2 is definitely when the series became more action oriented.
You should also review The Sarah Connor Chronicles, just awesome. Very under appreciated, it deserves better.
Agreed. I bet if it was streamed like nowadays it would be popular and many seasons until it ends properly
"Funny how the laws of space and time can be altered... for money." Such a great synopsis, James.
Please. You don't have to convince people to see T2.
I doubt anyone who hasn't seen it would be watching Cinemassacre...
It's interesting to see his reaction to one of the films that started the modern trend of "soft reboots" loaded with action scenes and rehashed concepts from the series' original runs.
I see a lot of potential in Arnold as a student.
You should thank the theater for not letting you in for Lethal Weapon 4.
Terminator: "Great"
Terminator 2: "Awesome."
Terminator 3: "Good but still entertaining."
Terminator Salvation: "Tried to enjoy it, it's not for me, I hated it."
Terminator 5: "Was good, but a mess."
I can't believe it's been almost ten years since salvation has been released
He has shown that he is able to learn new words quickly when he wants to.
Good reviews, though you are wrong about a part of T2 [that should have been how T3 happened but they missed/ignored it too.]
Not "all traces" of the terminators were destroyed. The Good Arnold lost an arm during his fight with the t-1000 in the foundry and that was never shown to be melted, it could still be recovered. Also, the S.M.Sterling books mention a fairly obvious idea... that Cyberdyne would have had an offsite data storage facility to backup it's most important data.
It's my hope that the new James Cameron Terminator film uses these [and even better, adapts the book Trilogy that continues from where his films left off.]
He seems to really enjoy when he is able to use new words he learned in class.
looking forward to the new James Cameron Terminator trilogy
I was actually shocked that the "IT" remake was R and not PG-13. Super happy it was R.
Terminator 3 is OK not terrible but not great
Eric Purcell no it's freakin terrible. TERRIBLE!
it's terrible as a Terminator movie, but it makes a decent action movie.
JohnConnor333 If third is terrible for you, then what do you think about 4 and 5?
The Gaming Paladin but it is a Terminator movie. Compared to everything that came before it, it's not just inferior. It's not bad. But it's generic to something that was interesting
I like T3! not as good as 1 & 2 but it's good enough
apparently a sequel for the Terminator 2 timeline is in production, so there's that. And when I say Terminator 2 timeline, I mean they're excluding what happened in the third movie.
Cinamassacre or AVGN I’ve been watching your videos for years and I always die laughing. Keep up the amazing work! Thanks for all the laughs and I will never stop watching your vids. I subscribed and I turned on notifications so I never miss any!
He seems to enjoy working with his classmates.
This is definitely a quick blinking you'll miss it shot but when the T1000 is chasing them on the bridge and he smashes them up against the rail? Arnold says this is the vehicle's top speed and if you look real closely it's not going above 65 miles per hour and I love that quick shot because it's pretty much you saying that he still a robot because Sarah Connor told him to keep it underneath 65 we don't want to be pulled over
we do not metion the third one james........ at all
Doesn't matter, he already did.
You mean the fourth one?
VixXstazosJOB the resoon its so hated as it was the one that followed judgement day, the film that everyone considers the greatest action film and maybe even the best film period
like James said, "the Sequel that never should've been."
The Gaming Paladin exactly
i would say this, if anyone gets the Terminator film collection and decides to watch T2, you got to watch the extended version and you will see the cutscenes that were removed from the film,
Fun fact one of things that Inspired the terminator is James Cam'ron had a nightmare about a robot skeleton chasing him
anton yelchin as kyle reese was the biggest highlight of salvation.
Terminator Salvation was one of the only movies I've ever walked out on without being ill.
There's a Terminator duology, and then the Sarah Connor Chronicles. That's the only Terminator timeline worth watching
T4 Salvation was amazing IMO.
Agree! 1. Terminator 2: Judgement Day. 2. Terminator 1. 3. Terminator 4: Salvation . ......................................................................and T3..
I always enjoy when he participates during my lessons.
Just watching this now, so sorry for the late comment, but I have a wee nit-pick with the review of T3; The T-X wasn't sent back to assassinate John Connor. Skynet had lost all trace of Connor (which is explained in the movie), so the T-X was sent back to take out the people who would become his most trusted allies during the future war. It's only by accident that she comes across John Connor... then it rehashes the second the movie.
I liked T3 overall though. Getting glimpses of what will become the Hunter Killers and Flying Hunter Killers, actually seeing Skynet being switched on and becoming self-aware, then having the balls to actually end the film on the destruction of the world.
She has shown the ability to adjust her pronunciation from what she hears in class.
T2 is the BEST action movie of all times. When I saw it as a teen, I was BLOWN AWAY!
He is always being challenged to expand his vocabulary every day in class.
I will say t2 will always be one of the most timeless movies ever. Just listen to the sound fx of the lasers and the cgi is still believable look because it's used for things that don't exist yet so it isn't replacing anything that we've seen yet. Perfect scifi film
With the right guidance, Arnold will improve rapidly.
If you want the true sequels to Terminator 2 you need to find the books. T2 Infiltrator, T2 Rising Storm, and T2 The Future War, by S. M. Stirling. Story picks up right at the end of T2, as in right at the destroyed building of Cyberdyne. These 3 books are what should've been movies 3 4 and 5. Will not be disappointed I promise.
It's interesting to have Arnold as a student.
Didn't think Salvation was anything special until I saw Genisys. Now it's a goddamn masterpiece in comparison.
In defense of T3's existence (not the movie itself): John Connor's mere existence beyond the T2 Terminator being lowered into the molten steel at the end of T2, means that they did not close the causality loop. As long as the causality loop exists, Judgement Day IS inevitable.
James, I don't really remember you using that many still-framed screen captures in the original review. Did you go back and edit it?
The terminator tv show with Summer Glau was amazing . I like to consider it the 3rd movie
I tried watching that once and only got through about 2 or 3 episodes and it was just too shitty to continue.
Arnold seems to show a lot of promise as a student.
I so much prefer the direction that The Sarah Connor Chronicles went, rather than the movies. Sadly, it ended in a cliffhanger, too.
I miss when these reviews had moving clips in them. I mean, I know why they are the way they are but still.
Am i the only one that realises that the terminators arm is still in the gears at the steel mill they don’t throw that into the molten steel so it would’ve been found
Please do another Cinemassacre's Monster Madness
Since Guns N' Roses are back together (for the most part) it would be so awesome if they done a new song for the next Termonator film.
He is constantly being challenged to expand his vocabulary every day during my lessons.
In order of favorite to least, 2, 1, Salvation, 3/Genesys
T1: This is awesome!
T2: Holy shit this is the best thing ever!
T3: Not good, not bad.
T4: Disown this. It's awful.
T5: Not good, not bad.
Before t3 came out I always thought the next plot would involve something to do with the other parts from the original terminator when it got crushed in the computer factory .Where did those parts go ?
I'm always happy to see him well-behaved in the classroom.
Review John woo's "Hard Boiled"
Sweet! It would be awesome if you did a full review of Genesys!
Believe it or not I saw Terminator 2 in the theaters back in 1991 when i was about 5-6 years old. I am 31 now, and will never forget.
I was surprised that Terminator: Genysis was entertaining and loved how it flipped the good guy/bad guy rolls
Regardless of the quality of later installments, as the titular robot says, "I'll be back."
time for a rewatch
"Live with me if you want to come."
5:48 nice picture of the stuntman :P
Honestly, Salvation is NOT a bad movie. I loved Bale as John Connor and Yelchin as Reese. I still like Salvation as a 3rd Terminator film, the CGI Arnold was incredibly good.
I love T2, but I like T1 better. Those stop motion effects make the terminator feel very real. Excellent movie.
He usually seems to be quite cheerful in class.
I always wondered why the T-1000 didn't sprout extra legs in the scene where he's chasing them in the car.
But they got it right in the helicopter scene :)
The 4th movie isnt out yet. As of this recording
Little did he know it wasnt gunna be good
Zeroblade it's way better than T3, Salvation actually has a decent story and a good John Connor
Ironically, after the disappointments of genesis and dark fate, fans are starting to show some love for 3 and especially salvation having something of a cult following.. strange times?
I have really bad anxiety in life and whenever I get in full panic mode I go watch James movie review series and it calms me down for some reason
I always had a feeling the second one feels like wellw ritten family movie.
That's why I loved it as a kid and now.
He seems to learn quickly from the corrections I make to his written work, as long as he pays attention to them.
Besides never haven a sequel stepping up to 1 and 2 I think salvation was the best follow up. Shane's camera and lighting work was outstanding.
I think Arnold only needs to study a little harder to achieve his full potential as an excellent student.
Would be cool if he reviewed the TV series they weren't bad but they did make T3 storyline moot. If you haven't watched it James, give it a shot. Besides Summer Glau is in it :)
She loves to participate when she knows the answer.
I actually really enjoyed the TV series. Skynet was in full-on "Fuck It" mode and keeps sending terminators back. But I do understand why a lot of people didn't like it. It was a drastic departure from the movies, and was more a character analysis series than an action or thriller series.
That's one of the reasons I liked it because it was so different!
Well this review was just in time, there is another terminator movie coming out...eventually. Linda hamilton is even returning. I am not sure if she alone can save a movie but at least they are trying.
Hi James. Just curious, you say your couldn't get into Lethal Weapon 4 as your mate was 16 (and it's R rated). But if you could get in, (I'm assuming it's as you were 17 or older), then why couldn't he go in with you as any age is allowed if accompanied by someone 17 or over?
I agree with much of what was said, i too think the Salvation was kind of interesting, different and also was its own thing.
And I think, arnold or not. The Genisys was the weakest.
His confidence in his English-speaking skills is improving as he practices it and uses it everywhere.
Im so bummed that theres gonna be no Halloween reviews
I actually liked the 4th one. Okay I found it okay but to me it's definitely better than the third crappy one.
The new Terminator movie that's on the way has potential, With Tim Miller (Deadpool movie) directing and James Cameron collaborating on it
For the days of my life have vanished like smoke, and my bones are parched with ash...
