    20:30 The Terminator's eyebrows were burnt off from when Reese blew up the car in the alley. It also singed his haircut. He had a longer side part style when he first arrived, into a real rough and shaggy looking buzz cut in front and on the sides. I love this movie. I couldn't even guess how many times I've seen this and Kyle Reese is one of my favorite heroes from any movie. It's worth considering, beyond just being 1984, that this was made with a budget of 6.4 million which is around 19 million today. In movie terms that is a microscopic budget. Some of the effects might not have the same punch today, but the fact they were able to do so much with so little is beyond impressive. That's real movie magic imo.

    If you liked 'The Terminator' I really think you would love 'T2'. The highly anticipated sequel was released seven years after the first movie. Thanks to the success of the first movie, the sequel had a bigger budget mostly going toward CGI. In the end, 'T2' was a blockbuster hit at the box office collecting over $520 million. You'd thought the first Terminator was ahead of it's time, wait until you see the sequel as it was ahead of its time being released in the early 90s

    It's amazing that not only are you completely not familiar with the Terminator franchise, but also 100% "get" the movie's horror aspects the way it was meant to, good job! Terminator 2 is widely regarded as one of the best action films ever made, so you're in for a treat especially the "Extended Edition". However, it's best to avoid every other darn Terminator movie after T2 since they're pretty bad. If you ended up liking the themes and subtext of T2 however, the TV show, "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" from 2008 is unbelievably good, dramatic and underrated.

    In case you're wondering, it was the breakthrough movie for the director. Nowadays you may know him as director for the Avatar movies. His movies generally become record-selling blockbusters regardless what he directs. Other notable works from him are Titanic (Romance/Drama), True Lies (Action/Comedy) and Aliens (Sci-fi/Horror), which is considered one of the best sequels ever made next to Terminator 2 (which he also directed).
    *80s*
    It looks good for the 80s, indeed. In the 80s they didn't have CG, so most of their effects are actually _real_ props. Animatronics, puppetry were the tools they used back then, but if they were done well they still hold up in time. The stop-motion effect didn't age that well though, nor did the dummy face in the mirror, but I suspect it was because this was a relatively modest budget movie (only $6.4 million). The face became more realistic later on though.
    *Sequel*
    He intentionally didn't want to make sequel until the techniques were better. The result is that the sequel looks a thousand times better than the first movie and more surprisingly, those CG effects he used in the sequel still hold up very well compared to movies from the current date. And if this movie almost makes you cry, the next one will topple you.
    *World*
    Well, the idea behind the movie was Artificial Intelligence. That was a pretty sci-fi idea back then, but if you look at our current time we have plenty of 'intelligent machines' all around us. Smart TVs, smart fridges, smartphones and smart cars. Siri and Alexa are AIs many people actively use and there have been talks about using AI in our military as well. That's why (at least in Europe) we're trying to make laws that automated drones are not allowed to kill people. The irony? The current technology is on a level that the movie Terminator becomes realistic enough that we should prevent that future by disallowing AI to rule our military.

    'The Terminator' is widely known as the blockbuster that launched the movie career of Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was a major competitive bodybuilder from Austria... Originally, he was cast to play the hero soldier... but after reading the script, he asked to play the 'Terminator'... Actor Lance Henriksen was cast as the original 'Terminator' - he was recast as Detective Vukovich... but Henrikson did play the android 'Bishop' in the sci-fi movie 'Aliens' after 'Terminator'.
    Schwarzenegger went on to more action roles in 'Commando' ... 'Predator' ... 'Total Recall' ... 'Conan the Barbarian'... but also won praise in comedy movies like - 'Twins' ... 'Kindergarten Cop'... 👍
    He reprised his role in 'Terminator II: Judgement Day'... the sequel that out-did the original and subsequent 'Terminator' movies.
    'The Terminator' also launched the career of director James Cameron, who did the 'Terminator II' sequel movie... and became one of the most successful movie directors, making blockbusters like 'Titanic'... 'Avatar'... 'True Lies'... 'Aliens' ... 'The Abyss'... etc.
    His then-wife Gale Anne Hurd who worked on 'The Terminator'... also had success behind the scenes, including 'The Walking Dead' series.

    Arnold Schwarzenegger is a huge actor. I'm not just referring to his physique. He's a big Hollywood star with a lot of big hit movies. His most iconic line: "I'll be back."
    Terminator 2 is considered one of the most iconic films of all time. There are several Terminator sequels, but T2 is considered the true closure of the Terminator saga.
    Kyle Reese is played by Michael Biehn. He's been in a few iconic films as well, including Aliens, Navy Seals, and Tombstone.
    So have the other side characters. They've all been in lots of movies for their time. I do highly recommend watching Terminator 2: Judgment Day. -OG

    @UnderDriven17 3 місяці тому +4

    The effects quality was primarily due to the budget, not the year it was made. This was Cameron's second film and the budget was only $6.4 million. If he had more money the effects would have been better. I often wonder if Cameron has considered fixing the shots with the animatronic Arnold head. It would be relatively simple to do it now. I think it would be nice to have an updated version for posterity. However, having first seen the film in the 1980's I don't mind the animatronics much--I would replace those shots just because it could be done better now, but it doesn't affect the quality of the film for me (this is one of my favorite sci-fi movies). It's interesting how modern viewers who are accustomed to more sophisticated effects react negatively to those scenes. I get that it looks 'cheesy' but it doesn't affect the story. In general, I think you did a good job with this review and the editing.

  • @bretttodd6470

    Fun fact... the cop that gets slammed and knocked out by Arnold is a cameraman that filled in as an extra. He makes another appearance in T2 as the mall shopper who takes multiple pics of Arnold after smashing through a store window. Fun fact 2... Arnold's real personal assistant (tall dirty blonde) fills in T2 as the lady looking at Sarah through the window after Dr Silverman explains the pen stabbing knee story.
    Fun fact 3 in T2... Linda Hamiltons real twin sister (a school teacher) plays Sarah's image in the mirror when Sarah is digging bullets out. She mimicks exactly what Sarah is doing to create the mirror image. There is no mirror, just a frame, to get the shot w/o seeing the camera if there was a real mirror.

  • @TommygunNG

    Part of the reason Schwarzenegger’s face looked off in the mirror scene is that the skin was dying. The idea was that the biological side of him was decaying - which is why he smelled like a dead cat later - whereas the machine part continued.
    That said, I definitely appreciate your honest expression of your opinion - that is, that you did not “LOVE” the movie. Love” everything they see, because they know that their viewership, for any given video will mostly consist of people who did like the movie.

    "I'll be back."
    I highly recommend watching the extended version of Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991) with the definitive ending. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that version and adds context that was originally taken out, anyone that says otherwise is pushing an agenda.
    Fun Fact: The crew had "You can't scare me, I work for James Cameron." t-shirts made.
    Casting Notes Fact: O.J. Simpson was considered for the Terminator, but the producers feared he was "too nice" to be taken seriously as a cold-blooded killer. Ironic.
    Director Cameo Fact: Near the beginning of the movie, when Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) receives a message on her answering machine breaking her date, the voice on the machine is James Cameron's.
    Make-Up Shenanigans Fact: One afternoon during a break in filming, Arnold Schwarzenegger went into a restaurant in downtown L.A. to get some lunch and realized all too late that he was still in Terminator make-up with a missing eye, exposed jawbone and burned flesh.
    Gun Enthusiast Fact: Arnold Schwarzenegger worked with guns every day for a month to prepare for the role. The first two weeks of filming he practiced weapons stripping and reassembly blindfolded until the motions were automatic, like a machine. He spent hours at the shooting range and practicing with different weapons without blinking or looking at them when reloading or cocking. He also had to be ambidextrous. He practiced different moves up to 50 times. He wound up garnering a compliment in Soldier Of Fortune magazine for his realistic handling of the guns on camera (whereas the magazine usually lampoons movies for their inaccurate depictions of weapons use).

    Did you know the phone number that Sarah gave to her "mom" on the phone? If she's calling from somewhere near L.A. yet gave out a 408 area code, which at the time was pretty much San Jose and Sunnyvale.

    With the special effects, it's more than just being made in 1984, this movie was extremely low budget. It was made for $6.5 million. They didnt have permits, they filmed guerrilla style, setting up a camera on location, filming quickly and then leaving. Arnold himself thought they had a good movie, but didn’t think it would be popular. Too niche of a film. The movie ended up exploding in popularity, and though Arnold was famous for Conan, Terminator took it to another level.
    James Cameron actually gets a good budget for the second film, and yet it feels like a cohesive universe with the two movies. The second is a must watch.

    After watching "The Terminator", you need to watch "Terminator 2" (Judgement Day), then you need to watch "Alien" (1979) & "Aliens" (1986). Few cast in "The Terminator" like Bill Paxton (Punk Leader), Michael Biehn (Kyle Reese), and Lance Henrikson (Detective Hal Vukovich) cast in Aliens (1986). You will be immersed in watching the movies.
    •Detroit Become Human, It is similar in a way to "The Terminator" T-800 Cyberdyne System model 101 series cyborg. Technology has evolved to a point where human like androids are everywhere. They speak, move ,and behave like human beings, but they are only machines serving humans. Play three distinct androids and see a world at the brink of chaos - perhaps our future - through their eyes.

    1. Linda Hamilton ROCKED. She's really built in T2. "Terminator 2 Judgement Day" is the action movie GOAT.
    2. Along with Lance Henriksen/Vukovich, Michael Biehn/Reese and Bill Paxton/punk also played in "Aliens" as Bishop, Hicks and Hudson respectively.
    3.We have limited AI now. So does China.😱😱
    4. If this wasn't a movie the ammunition would not have been available on the gun shop counter.
    5. Ginger's boyfriend Matt must be a lousy lay if she needs rock and roll to "rock and roll".🙄
    6. Watching people react to the eye operation is worth watching this all by itself.

    Just bear in mind that this had a budget of $6M which was very little for movie of this scope and nobody involved was a big star. Arnold was probably better known as a body builder than an actor before this and nobody had heard of James Cameron.

Can't wait to see you freak out, however, over one of these oldies from back in my day. I saw all these at the theater, as I'm 63 haha.

Anyway, hope you don't mind a suggestion now and then from an old feller if I happen to think of a good one you missed, hehe :)

      @@NixairisReactions I also subbed to you today. And I'm gonna give you 1 movie recommendation per decade. Here goes:
      1930s - *The Wizard of Oz* (1939). You may have already seen this, so if you have, then react to, Gone With The Wind, also from 1939.
      1940s - *Casablanca* (1942). Considered one of the best films of all-time.
      1950s - *Rear Window* (1954) - Arguably director Alfred Hitchcock's best movie.
      1960s - *Breakfast at Tiffany's* (1961). Starring the incomparable Audrey Hepburn.
      1970s - *Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope* (1977). Even though it's called Episode IV, it was the first to come out, and should always be the first one watched!
      1980s - *E.T. The Extra-terrestrial* (1982). A 7-year old Drew Barrymore steals the show!
      1990s - *The Shawshank Redemption* (1994). I never met anyone who didn't love this movie.
      2000s - *Gladiator* (2000). The greatest film of the 21st century.
      2010s - *Ex Machina* (2014). A film you'll never forget.

    James Cameron wasn't given the proper budget for this fil and he also had to shoot some scenes illegally w/o permits. The movie was such a hit that T2 budget was increased dramatically and produced a much better movie and special effects got better too. Some scenes aren't cgi though and are really cool. The truck vs bridge is real and helicopter chase under a bridge is also real. T2 is a must see movie.
