Also, the dog that was the terminator detecter in the future and the dog at the hotel and riding with Sarah Conner in the jeep at the end was actually James Camron’s personal pet.
Actually you're wrong. The dog was actually Gale Anne Hurd's mother's dog (later James Cameron's mother in law), she even says that in the dvd documentary. Linda didn't actually drive off into the storm at the end, that was Gale's PA Polly Apostolof, the Jeep belonged to Gene Warren, head of Fantasy II Effects. It seemed a crazy time for guerilla filmmaking! Even the Toshiba tape recorder Sarah spoke into belonged to James Cameron! It really seemed like a case of "let's go make a movie!".....without realising just how iconic and influential The Terminator would ultimately be. I still can't believe it cost 6.5 million dollars to make. The first Alien cost 8.5 million dollars. Now films cost hundreds of millions and still don't deliver, it's all flashy CGI, and flat story. A good story, ingenuity, vision and intention can really deliver the goods.
@@mistermatix8241 my bad.good catch.
@@ryanworkman3032 no worries, I didn't mean anything bad or make you look daft, I'm a HUGE HUGE fan of the franchise.
I've seen The Terminator over a 100 times. Just a exciting and entertaining movie
I love it too! Going to buy the 4K steel book edition
I love your channel! Great content. Liked and subbed.
I remember when Arnold turned up to my fancy dress party for music composers.
He was dressed normally. So I asked ‘Who are you supposed to be?’
‘I’ll be Bach’!
Nice job! U delivered as advertised; these were new facts I had never heard before.
I was glad to see you did teach me some new things. Thank you. Upvote.

After the terminator say's "I'll be back",
Cop goes back to paperwork, stops writing, looks up, when we see him open mouthed, there's headlights reflecting off the glass on the partitioning. But when the car is still outside the doors, there are no headlights illuminated....
Lol already a great episode. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the work James Cameron! Respect!
Lol a christmas card.
Learned something new: Tech noir, time for Blade runner again 8-)
Check out a short story by E Van Vogt: The vault of the beast written in 1940 . The similarities between Terminator 2 are surely too much of a coincidence.
Thank you for sharing
LOL, the "six million dollar dog" went over well
When it was first released a friend, who was a computer programmer, told me what prcessor chip the code shown on-screen for the progam runing the teminator was. I can't rememner which, but it was a simple 8 bit one. So much for progress!!!
MOS 6502 of C64 and Apple fame. IIRC the source code shown are pieces from a program published in a Mac magazine.
One thing that nobody EVER mentions, or even acknowledges: After the truck blows up, a burning figure staggers out and collapses on a patch of bare ground. A few moments later as Sarah and Reese hug, the terminator rises up from UNDER some debris. Also, closeups of the burning skull make it look more human than machine. Was there someone else in the truck, and that subplot was removed, or is this a big continuity goof on Cameron's part? And why does nobody EVER notice it?
As for the terminator not speaking much, I actually think they should have cut the lines "Wrong." and "I'll be back." as there was no logical reason for him to say either. Why would a machine determine the need to say anything to a human it was about to kill? Same with the cop at the desk. The cop wasn't paying any attention to it, so it could have just walked out.
I'll defend the first few lines it says to the punks though, as it deciding that making small talk with them would attract less attention and would carry less risk of its disguise being damaged, than outright conflict, makes sense.
Crossover suggestion... a T-1000 is sent back to April 1912 in Titerminator...
Fascinating🤔.
While absolutely iconic, I still think the Terminator saying " I will be back" vs "I'll be back" makes more sense for a machine to say. Especially in the tech & understanding of machine learning when this was made, a machine using a contraction seemed logically out of place. But to this day it still sounds awesome & is something ALWAYS associated with Arnold!
But it's a machine that was programmed to be life-like though...so it does work
The android Data on Star Trek also had problems using contractions.
Okay. How is "Tech Noir" distinguished from Cyberpunk?
"19 Sacrificed fingers" I can't find any other videos or info on this. It seems to me that a human could not fit inside that Terminator exoskeleton. I thought that was all just special effects...
There was a waist up endoskeleton that shane wore on a backpack and for more specific action shots woodruff had his arm inside a vertebrae in the neck and grabbed a handle inside the head.
You'll be back!
It got a that 4K Ultra HD Blu ray disc in November 2024 with an excellent video and audio quality Dolby Vision+Dolby Atmos.
Comment for the Algorithm.....keep it up mate!!
In Kyle’s flashback dream the Terminator that comes through the door and begins to shoot everyone is actually Franco Colombo who was one of Arnold’s best friends and training partners for the Mr. Olympia competitions.
True that the Terminator would by design of the English language correctly say the famous line "I will be back." It would also be prudent to apply the fact that the T800s were infiltration models who would be programmed to self dress, act, walk, and as we see in almost all of the movies apply a different person's voice in an attempt to trick or trap their target or victim. The first movies T800 was maybe just applying this technique to the Policeman at the front desk because of the way he was "acting" due to the way he was dressed after stealing the street punks clothing and thus trying to sound " street normal."
Peter Cullen also voiced the Predator.
Hello and thank you for telling about Polish title... Yes , was... Elektroniczny morderca . I was 10 years old at the time... Pampers needed for that film 😂😂😂😂
You may want to rehears saying Arnold's last name!!
Treatment resistant depression never heard this term hunch. Gobbles anyone who has this
I don't believe the two Terminator thing. Are you saying the good Terminator would have replaced Kyle Reece? That wouldn't have worked because half the reason Kyle Reece was there was to father John Connor. Was the original plan for Linda Hamilton to get pregnant from robot Arnie? 😂
That's true. It was NEVER going to be 2 Armies in T1, it was always going to be Kyle Reese. T2 was always going to be 2 Terminators, originally it was going to be Arnie and an endoskeleton only version, but:
Metal cannot travel via Time Displacement Equipment
How the hell would an endoskeleton assimilate into normal society?

Cameron admitted in an on-set interview that he "ripped off" some ideas for the inspiration and even named Ellison. So that's why Ellison sued. However, had Cameron not said that, which was arguably him being flippant about his inspiration, Ellison wouldn't have had a case. What serves as inspiration and what is actually a ripoff is a pretty clear distinction and 'The Terminator' is clearly not a direct ripoff of anything. It obviously had multiple influences and Cameron melded them together artfully in the best tradition of inspired artists who take what has come before and push it in new directions.
Cameron NEVER said that. The interview doesn't exist anywhere and I've looked for it. Ellison was sue happy. They settled out of court over the matter so the movie wouldn't bomb. Ive seen the TV episode Soldier and the only thing it and Terminator have in common are time travel.
@@phoenix21studios In the early 70's there was an episode of Doctor Who where future soldiers travel back in time to change their history.
When the lawsuit happened with Cameron the writers of that episode were kind of worried they might be next.
@@Ron-d2s very interesting!
Really? A Donny Trump add? I love your content, but WTF?
