      Imagine the PTSD of the SWAT team from the Cyberdyne lobby. Figure the police station attack from the 1984 movie was circulated to all the other police stations (and various military units), to determine what mistakes were made by both sides (very few). They also knew that the attacker from the police attack was never found afterwards. Updates to police stations and procedures were made to prevent that sort of attack in the future.
      So that SWAT team has heard about the attack, they have seen construction occur all around the country, and they know whoever did this is still out there. Then they get the call, the person has been seen again, and they have to guard the lobby to make sure this guy doesn't leave. Combine that with all the other stuff that happens in the movie, and that SWAT team will be having PTSD for months or years afterwards.

    When Reese tells Sarah about the photo, says he always wondered what she was thinking about when the picture was taken and then at the end you find out that she was thinking of him, telling their unborn son about his father. So that adds a whole other layer to the photo plot line and I've always thought that was a really genius bit of writing.
    Also, Arnold Schwarzenegger's performance as The Terminator is really undersold. Yeah, most of the time he isn't lauded for acting ability, but it's not nothing to believably depict a machine. He's genuinely frightening in this because you believe he's The Terminator. It's in the physicality and the "deadness" in his eyes.

      James Cameron originally looked at Arnold for the Kyle Reese part, with OJ Simpson (!!!) playing the Terminator. But after a lunch meeting with Arnold, who kept talking about how the Terminator should act and move, Cameron said, "Arnold, I think you should play the robot." Arnold was hesitant at first, since he didn't want to play a villain, but conceded a few days later, and history was born.

      I never questioned the love of Reese and Sarah.The action of Terminator was incredible but James Cameron's scripting did a great job of capturing their tragic romance. Two people separated by time and for a short moment in the midst of chaos, loving 'a lifetime's time worth'. Seeing her picture Reese fell in love with Sarah as he was drawn in by the sadness in her face just as Sarah would fall for him seeing the pain and sadness in his. Beautifully Heartbreaking. While it may seem clumsy at first viewing, Cameron (and his actors) pulled off a believable romance that other directors and authors of the Terminator films couldn't touch, even when they tried.

    I can see the romance angle if you remember that she was just stood up from a date. And from what she said to Pugsly, she sounded sad or lonely. So hearing Kyle speak so passionately about her specifically, and her emotions going haywire from the events she just experienced, she probably just wanted to feel something good and safe. Kyle was the only one who could believe what she was going through and help her process what was going on.

    One of my fav and most underrated terminator looks but the leather jacket look is unbeatable.

    That picture Reese had is so important for so many reasons. Not only did it give him an edge up in locating her ahead of the Terminator (Reese already knew what she looked like), it helped facilitate him falling in love with her. Terminators are known for their unstoppable perseverance. One of the best ways to get a human to behave similarly, is to make them feel love. They'll do whatever they possibly can to save the target, it's not just a mission, it's protecting what he loves.

      @@JJA1987 It had one of the biggest cock ups in movie history. The CPU of the first Terminator was used to design Skynet's schematics. Paradox. The first film was a scary sci fi horror film, would they actually beat the Terminator? Second was more of a flawed flash, glitzy Hollywood action film. The MOMENT I saw the truck enter the refinery & I saw the molten metal I knew EXACTLY how the T1000 would perish. The ever present danger element was just not there. The other thing that really irritated me was, in the first, Kyle told Sarah they had beaten the computer in the future, the war was over. The only chance it had of winning was to eliminate Connor's existence. If the Terminator did, it may win. If it did not, it had LOST. He also made it crystal clear, NOTHING DEAD WILL GO making the T1000's presence an impossibility. Second film was a PURE CASH IN on the success first, unfortunately, a bit more time explaining things would have helped. The final irks. In the Parking Lot the T1000 stands there, looking at John trying to start his bike. Why not shoot him? Then at the Pescadero Mental Hospital, the T1000 marches up to the barred door, FULLY ARMED & stood there, looking at his target & proceeded to (HOLLYWOOD GLITZ) melt through the bars instead of SHOOTING THE HELL out of his target! Nothing scary, inescapable at all about it. Made to make money on the success of the original. Not a patch on the masterpiece original. Replacing story with lovey dovey stuff & cool sfx. No thanks.

Imo the OG ending is fitting and is much more impactful. It gives you something to think about after and chew on. For me it is a satisfying way to end the story, because I don't need things to be tied up in a bow or have a happily ever after, as life rarely turns out that way.
      I don't hate the other movies (don't love them either, they're just meh and unnecessary 😂) and see them as alternate timeline side stories, not part of the actual storyline of the first 2 movies. So I'm with you on T2 being the ending.

    Interesting note: Harlan Ellison found out originally James Cameron had ripped off two stories that were adapted as episodes of the 1960s black and white TV show called The outer limits. One story was called "the soldier" and the other, "demon with the glass hand". Those two stories were the end result for The Terminator. He sued him for plagiarism, and won out of court. So at the conclusion of the film, the makers of the Terminator series gave the late Harlan Ellison his credit.

    T2 is the better movie and perhaps the greatest action movie ever made, but for the budget James Cameron had to work with, it's incredible what he got done. No CG at all was used in this movie because it wasn't available in 1984, and given the budget, the effects are still pretty impressive. They look a lot better than some CG today, which just looks fake. At times you can tell it's a robot and not Schwarzenegger, like a few shots of him after he pops his eye out, but they're brief and you're not staring at it for long. It's still pretty mind-blowing for the time. James Cameron and Steven Spielberg were masters and they made movies that age incredibly well in terms of effects.

    Kyle was sent back to the past so that he could change the events that happened in the past and shape the present. Kyle found out that his mission was more difficult than he thought and he had to take a lot of risks in order to achieve his goal. As a result, the first film would start with a paradox. During the year 2029, Kyle was also a soldier working with John, whose mission was to save Sarah and get her pregnant. In short, Kyle and Sarah's son, John Connor, was responsible for all the events in the future and past, specifically 2029, because his existence meant he could thwart Skynet. Terminator films will get more confusing in the future. Terminator is like Back To The Future, but with more action and paradoxes that lead to multiple timelines and no conclusion for the heroes.

    6:13 Ithaca 37. First introduced in 1937. Had a long service life. Michael Biehn used that same make and model of shotgun in 'Aliens'. This one is the M&P (Military & Police) model. The one he uses in 'Aliens' is the Stakeout (compact) model.
    8:04 Franchi SPAS-12. First introduced in 1979. Still kinda new at the time. His overall best weapon is that rifle, an AR-18 (Armalite's "forgotten" rifle). There's a punk song by Gang of Four called 'Armalite Rifle' which is mostly about the AR-18.
    8:27 When he says, "Hey, you can't do that," he's right. Gun shops store ammo separate from firearms and they have policies and procedures in place to prevent exactly that sort of thing.
    14:36 Michael Biehn owns that line. He was the very first to say it.
    16:02 Ithaca 37, standard model. In movies, they always pump before they shoot. IRL, you shoot, then you pump. And you should load the chamber first to get a full "combat load." With a bottom-ejector like the Ithaca 37, you can't load the chamber directly, so what you do is you load one shell, cycle, the action, then load the rest. That way you get a full magazine tube plus one in the chamber. Reese's shotgun holds a total of eight if loaded this way. Arnie's holds five. Also, the Ithaca 37 only uses standard 12-gauge shells.
    Note: The "Arnie" model Terminator is the Cyberdyne Systems Model 101, aka T-101. It can be molded over any suitable exoskeleton. The standard configuration is to mold the T-101 over a T-800 endoskeleton. The T-102 is based on Arnie's friend, Fanco Columbu. That's the one you can play as in Terminator: Resistance.
    16:24 Damaging his flesh can induce gangrene, thereby blowing his cover.
    17:15 Gotta have a base of operations, no matter how modest.
    17:24 120 years.
    18:01 If that grosses you out, don't ever watch Lucio Fulci movies. };-P
    20:15 He's gunzerking! ua-cam.com/video/sk00RNT-1Tg/v-deo.html
    24:22 John Connor and Skynet are both products of a time paradox.
    27:40 The fever dream that inspired it all.
    30:39 Michael Biehn has also played "both sides," so to speak. He'd played villains even before he played Kyle Reese, the ultimate hero. His most memorable villain is probably Johnny Ringo from 'Tombstone'.
    32:28 Johnny Five, formerly known as Number Five, formerly known as S.A.I.N.T. #5, was originally designed for combat. You might also like 'Eve of Destruction'. Johnny Five was basically WALL-E's predecessor and the Terminator had a pre-T2 female counterpart called "Eve" (aka "Eve 8").
    33:05 You CAN do that IRL. You'll just waste most of yer ammo. You might score a few hits, but most likely out of luck. A human can fire a 12-gauge one-handed, especially if it's as front-heavy as a SPAS-12. Holding it like that, though, is impractical for a normal person. One of the types of stocks the SPAS-12 can have is a top-folding stock with a swing-out hook that you can hook around your forearm so you can more easily fire it one-handed in case one arm or hand is injured. It also functions as a carry handle when the stock is folded into its storage position. That type of stock is on the gun when we see it at the gun shop.
    34:36 The Arnie (101) and Franco (102) models do look less like infiltrators and more like shock troopers.
    35:45 All he'd ever known was war. There was no time for love. The same was true for the women of his time.

    T2 is one of those rare sequels that surpasses the original movie. And that's saying something, cause Terminator was pretty cool.

    “I’ll be back, ha bet you didn’t know I would say that” last action hero is a must cause all the Arnold movies, they mention in that underrated film!

    If you guys have Netflix, I cannot recommend the Arnold documentary enough!! I think you guys would dig it!! He's such an interesting, driven, complicated man.

    ENJOY ENJOY T2. Much bigger budget. Cameron is much more confident behind the camera. A true masterpiece of cinema.
    Can't believe you've not seen these two.
    I've seen Arnold in interview talking about he was working on his accent so it was ideal he didn't speak much in earlier films, and he does have a little more dialog in T2.
    I think the most dialog the Terminator has in this film is when he is talking as the mum.

    7:00 - Fun fact: While the crew was shooting action stuff in the studio, James Cameron and Arnold snuck off to do this scene. They didn't have any shooting permits, so they went into a secluded neighborhood. James walked up to someone's house and offered them $1000 cash to use their car for "a shot in an action movie." Arnold got into costume in the street, and they used brass knuckles to punch out the window, get in and do the shot of him starting the car.

    The Terminator is what I call the greatest B-movie ever made. Cameron took a B-movie concept with B-movie effects and gave it his personal A+ quality craftsmanship

    Fun fact Arnold genuinely got his eyebrows burnt off in that first scene. They just decided to go with it and it made him look more intimidating.
