      Are you saved friend? If you died tonight will you go to heaven or hell? God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh to take away the sin of the world. He gave up his own life to save yours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for your redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him.
      This is the Gospel which means the Good News.
      Isaiah 45:22-23 KJV
      Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. [23] I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
      John 1:1-3,14 KJV
      In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,
      Isaiah 44:6 KJV
      Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
      Revelation 1:17-18 KJV
      And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: [18] I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
      John 20:27-29 KJV
      Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. [28] And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. [29] Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

    His portrayal of the T-1000 was so perfect.
    He seemed to be analyzing everything but reacting instantly. Far more fluid than the T-800 which often had to pause to analyze things so that he could process the data.
    It felt like a true upgrade in terminator technology. Faster processing. More aware. Constantly scanning.

      For the most part I agree.
      One thing I never felt was realistic about T-1000 though
      is that despite the fact that he has no real eyes/cameras, he only sees in front of him...
      and even lets himself being attacked from behind. To me that's quite a flaw.

      Excellent catch. I only recall him blinking when talking to John's foster parents, but he did it at odd times and further portrayed he was just mimicking human behavior.
      In another comment, I read that someone said he likewise typically held his breath when directly on camera, so he would not show the tell-tale signs of breathing to the audience. Which, is something else I never consciously noticed. But, something which again, applied an uncanny valley quality to it, and though I don't think many people ever noticed it, to quote RLM: your brain did. It just made him seem like he was something other than human, and it worked perfectly for this character.

      @@mpetrie But there, he's acting like a kind police officer casually asking questions and reassuring John's foster parents everything's OK. He needs their cooperation, so he tones the creepiness way down to seem trustworthy. Throughout the franchise, some terminators have been shown to do this when they need someone's cooperation or trust, only to discard it when it's no longer necessary. (For example, in The Sarah Connor Chronicles, the typically socially inept Cameron blended in perfectly and showed a friendly valley girl personality to get closer to John before revealing herself as his guardian, or even pretended to cry and plead desperately when she was reset to her original programming and John was about to deactivate her). It makes sense for machines to have limited, specifically programmed, "human" responses for particular situations, in order to go undercover, which they dispense of when in search/combat mode.

    His performance is what carries this movie when the special effects are 30 years old. First of all it was done so well that it still feels watchable in terms of the effects, but I don’t really think twice about it because it’s truly the performances that make it so believable. Even crazier to think about how they were shooting pieces of scenes months apart and having to deal with continuity in the scenes and the performers. Pretty amazing

His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for your redemption with his own blood.

Mads Mikkelsen and Christoph Waltz also come to mind for playing that part (which is the reason why they were both targeted for the newest James Bond films). But Rob definitely hit this role out of the park. I don't think many could match his portrayal of T-1000, and perhaps no one could...

      ​@@marccram2664 It depends...what gives Smith his power is the Matrix itself, and in the Matrix he has a limited amount of control over the sujects within, more so when he becomes a virus. His physical form is not particularly important, as he can occupy an unlimited number of bodies if he's ever defeated, and in all of them he possesses brutal strength and some physics-defying abilities. The T-1000 might be able to kill him, but Smith never really "runs out" of lives unless his program is erased, so he's just killing a body. Smith, also, might just be able to use his sheer strenght and speed to destabilze the T-1000's form, and use the Matrix to bend reality enough as to tip the scale in his favor, and either paralyze/mutate the T-1000 to incapacitate him, or change the world around him to make fire/acid readily available. "Unplugged" Smith might even be able to corrupt him with his copying ability, or simply overwhelm him with his many, many clones. (Also, I get the feeling Smith is smarter and more readily able to use his powers, unlike the T-1000 who seems to be learning and takes a while to make full advantage of them)
      If it's just a one on one fight in equal conditions, then the T-1000 might, of course, have an edge if he uses his arms as blades (Agents aren't particularly invulnerable and can be shot or stabbed as much as anyone), or if he employs his defensive capabiltiies (absorbing punches and reforming around them) he might be able to withstand his attacks and overwhelm him. In general, if it boils down to physicality, it's somewhat close to fighting a T-800, save for Smith's great agility, martial arts, and lightning fast speed, around which the T-1000 can get creative to counter by making full use of his shapeshifting abilities.

      Think I give this to Smith though, on account of being more of a program than a body. (liquid metal or not, the T-1000 is limited to his physical constitution, fluid though it may be)

      @@marianoyuba3736 I kinda agree with Smith winning...cause the t 1000s conscience seems slow learning like yoy said...Smith can just think of another way to maybe mutilate the t 1000

    Robert Patrick is such an underrated actor. Totally nailed this role as the T-1000 and the crew did a fantastic job on this movie. Never felt as much awe and excitement watching the newer Terminator movies as I did with Terminator 1 and 2.

      I wonder how Mr. Patrick must feel looking back on his old films, especially T2, and remember how handsome, fit, and sharp he used to look.
