Critic, my dad worked at the building next door to where the T2 Cyberdyne scenes were shot. As a result, when he found out about the shooting schedule through the company staff, we ended up camping out in our Chevy Astro in the parking lot while Arnold was firing off the mini-gun. The ironic part of it all, we were watching “Masters of the Universe”(1987) on a portable tv while Cameron was filming.

Its all on Sarah's face from fear to stunned recognition. John would have known he needed to program that phrase into the terminator either because he knows it from his mom telling him OR he lived this situation before in T2 therefore in the future adult John remembers what the terminator said that got his mom to trust it, programing into the machine before sending it back to protect young John, boom closed loop paradox!

The other ending to salvation makes SO much sense. JOHN CONNOR grows up knowing he will be a legend, so he is assertive, self important, speechy and reckless. When this gets him killed he is replaced by a superhuman with knowledge of skynet... But also with an identity crisis. He wants to prove he is good enough to be human, and tries living up to the legend of JOHN CONNOR. This is why he became a legend. He was a superhuman people pleaser trying to be cool. This even sets the stage for Genisys. He never belives in himself, so he uppgraded to much. Now he is a tool of skynet. He really calls himself JOHN CONNOR and he belives it now, but can kill "his parents" because he isnt John, just a deusional terminator.

The philosophical and moral questions are presented in a subtle way. They aren't thrust down the throat through 40 minutes of forced dialogue like modern movies.

[@mckenzie.latham91]

T2 also took a great look into how man and machine do not entirely differ from each other whether it be that moment with sarah and dyson, or with the Terminator being a “father” figure to john and learning what it means to cry even if it can’t do that that’s how you make a great sequel, action and suspense but also looking into the philosophical questions of the plot and the nature of the subject, in his case where man and machine begin and end.

16:09 "They throw a bomb in the tail pipe..." I thought that was the exhaust too when I was a kid, but big rigs use vertical exhaust pipes to avoid bowing exhaust directly on the trailer. The pipe into which the bomb is placed is actually used on fuel tankers (such as the one driven in the film) to store hoses for fuel transfer. It's accurate that those pipes would be on there as it is clearly a fuel tanker, however, there should definitely be a cover of some sort to prevent the hose from sliding out during acceleration or braking, and this would almost certainly be spotted on pre-trip as well as at a weigh station.

If they did something like that here, or at least, hinted at that starting to become a reality for him, I think the film could have done better.

[@mckenzie.latham91]

Salvation was a gem that had flaws Salvation is set before Connor becomes the official head of the resistance, which isa role he grows into over the course of the film, showing how he rose to the top this is interesting because it allows us to see a different side to the war and john connor’s life in war it also showed earlier attempts by cyber dyne and even sky net to get to a proper terminator unit that would later be their mainstream foot soldier and why Sky net goes with A.I instead of Androids, because the human side cannot be controlled or relied on to betray its humanity. the issue was they spent too much time on the politics between Michael ironside’s character and connor, and they had that horrible cgi Arnold fight scene that didn’t need to be there but sam worthington was great in that, and the concept of his version of terminator being a precursor to the ones we see alter on was interesting.

I don’t think he was paid by cyber dyne first because Cyberdyne had no idea who sarah connor was or how she was involved with the terminator, as she was arrested for trying to blow up one of their computer labs, nothing to do with the original terminator crime scene where they got the tech from cyber dyne has also not developed sky net yet so there would be no reason to silence her about something they haven’t made yet and even then they have no idea that sky net will betray humanity. he’s the psychiatrist they bring in to council Sarah in the first film after her room mate was killed and she was kidnapped

[@ghostchaser1631]

Yes, T2 is absolutely flawless and one of my all time favorite sci-fi action movies. The T-1000 is one of the greatest movie villains and watching him chase down John Connor with Nemesis Prime was one of the most awesome things I've ever seen. The first two movies are the only ones that are good enough for me to stick to because, not only does each sequel afterwards progressively suck more than the last, but they make no sense continuity wise. The Cyberdyne Systems building was destroyed along with Miles Dyson, the hand and microprocessor from the first T-800 (from 1984) and the T-1000 and current T-800, so none of the sequel events should have happened, they stopped Judgement Day. In fact, not only did John point this out in T3, but a good ending was filmed for T2 that was never used. Sorry but, as far as I'm concerned, just like the Michael Myers Halloween movies, in my eyes the first two are the only ones.

[@mckenzie.latham91]

Eh, t2 is not flawless, but it’s is amazing there is no explanation for why a liquid terminator can go back in time when they say there is no way metal can come back there’s no way liquid metal can have human skin and still camouflage itself, and every time it goes fully liquid or liquid metal the skin would be lost. that’s the only plot hole in the whole film, but easily ignored.

34:30... Ok... I can't stop admiring Robert Patricks dedication to the art. Those shots look like they hurt as hell. 37:40 ... ah yeah. My nightmare fuel for the following two weeks after I saw it. For some reason the idea of people getting their flesh ripped from their bones is somehow extra creepy to me. Same in Mars Attacks...

thank you for that, helped me keep track of where i was.

Saw a vid where thr cyberdyne lobby scene had Arnold shift the grenades to his back so the LAPD wouldnt set off the grenades in the gunfire. Very amazing attention to detail.

If John had told them in Terminator Genisys that what he became was the next stage in human evolution, they might have believed him

Good to see you still going strong NC. Still cracking me up after all these years.

[@CrimsonHellkite666]

I really find it funny that Terminator 2 had that anti gun thing with the kids despite most of the movie showing you can use gun effectively with out killing people

[@thomastakesatollforthedark2231]

To be fair wasn't it more of a general anti violence message?

[@CrimsonHellkite666]

Possibly, been a while since I gave it a full watch

@@knightmare5097 Maybe the point is that guns should only be used in extreme cases instead of the scene where the little boys were treating guns like toys.

I just realized why NC is so likeable. He delivers his jokes the same way Weird Al does. And everyone loves Weird Al. Not accusing him of ripping off at all, just that he has that style.

[@sidearmsalpha]

Still a fan despite the controversy he has been involved in regarding Channel Awesome. The Pee Wee Herman samples in the Dark Fate review had me in stitches. 🤣That was so on point. 🤣🤣

I have some guilty pleasure of Critic, i am glad he makes videos. I consider 2008 days the best in my view but i am glad he is still going strong

[@doomedwit1010]

In T2 the fact that they give the heavily armed Arnold 3 chances to surrender but shoot the unarmed black scientist on sight is one of those shockingly telling scenes that probably wasn't intended...

[@bigslim7777]

That scene in T2 where he uses the minigun looks and sounds incredible on laserdisc.

The cop that gives Connor the bullet proof vest is Paul Winfield, he played the Captain of the Reliant in Star Trek II.

Terminator: A top-notch horror film that could use a minor update on the stop-motion effects. Terminator 2: A top-notch action film that redefined what special effects could do. Terminator 3: Like the Star Wars prequels. Hated in its time, but its only crime was not being as good as the originals. Later sequels would prove how spoiled we were. Terminator Salvation: A new Terminator that made no sense, in a post-Apocalyptic world where John Connor is just middle management. Terminator Genisys: What happens when you try to write note cards with ideas for five movies and then shuffle them together. Terminator Dark Fate: Sorry, I already gave up in Genisys.

I watched these videos before. But now I can add this to a nighttime playlist.

As many times as I've seen Terminator (more than I can count,) this is the first time I've ever noticed Steve Buscemi.

[@piscesman74]

What?

[@Mxlsptlk]

Terminator 3 may not be a good movie, but I always loved the scene where the original model fights the new terminator by smashing urinals over her head and pushing her through bathroom stall walls. It's a brutal, hand to hand fight, and you can see that he's losing by increments even though he's very durable.

[@cuff2860]

Lol, dammit I was so close to getting through the T2 review without completely cracking up but that ice age line got me. Well played.

[@DeltaGolf791]

In T2, I really wish people gave more attention to the emotional weight of a machine, entirely incapable of emotional feeling or display, evolving to the point of expressing to a human that it understands why we cry. It is as close as a machine would ever get to feeling emotion and the delivery of the line by Arnold is criminally underrated.

[@Axterix13]

Totally wrong on the future footage from the first Terminator movie. It is one of the things that helps the movie stand out, and they are some of the most iconic scenes from the movie. The tracks crushing the skulls, that swiveling turret, the underground base, and so on... And it is all tied in well, too. You get the dog barking in that base scene, and then later, it fills that in with Reese's line about how they use dogs to sniff out terminators. If that was dumped on you right before it was needed, it would feel a lot more like what it is (a gun on the mantelpiece). But because it ties back to what we've seen, it feels more natural.

[@trafficenthusiasts9688]

The Terminator in the retirement home advert made me laugh so much, he's very good at Arnold

Kudos to whoever did that "KO" edit, its friggin epic.

[@darqjade]

I remember seeing this as a kid and I was fine with the whole movie up until the surprise twist at the end where it's revealed the Terminator was still alive. At that point my kid brain went from excited to unable to breath due to the terror of wondering if it was even possible for Robo-Arnie to be killed.

they didn't duplicate Sarah at 33:16, Linda Hamilton also is a twin, her twin is the Sarah that's playing in the park, int the dream sequence, before the Nuke hits.

[@Oni_Teeth]

You used the term "dirty shadows" at 4:45 to describe that comic style for composition type and framing. I think I would describe it as "Milleresque" taking from the art style that Frank Miller used.

[@dragonskunkstudio7582]

1:00:45 This is the best gag of them all. I played this 10 times already. Deep down I long for a Terminator to be in BTTF.

[@HeraldOfBadger]

because of the nature of time travel, the every time they send someone back it's the first time, the other times never happen (or not in that timeline) so whenever they go to send someone back they do not have any prior experience, the circumstances might be worse therefore they might be getting worse and drop offs

[@piercelindenberg6842]

The gun trick in T2 was actually modified to perform the trick. Arnie nearly broke his hand when they used the wrong prop by accident.

Man! The Dude @4:21 talking to Anthony Michael Hall in "Weird Science" is the same dude from "Terminator" in the garbage truck when Arnold shows up at the beginning. And he's got a cigar in his mouth then too. Six degrees of separation, eh. LoL 😆

[@taylormademyself89]

Funny story about the first time I saw terminator one , in 2002 my 8th grade writing teacher had the class watch terminator and skipped over the flash back / future scenes and told us to write what we thought wat the future in it looked like about half must have seen it cuz they were dead on what it was , but other half including me hadn't and the stuff we wrote was sooooo dark and soooo much worse lol so I would say not seeing the future would've been better for the movie atleast to me 😎🤟

This will forever be remembered (by me) as being the Terminator movie that chose to give away it's biggest twist in the bloody commercial! Can you imagine if T2 did that shit?!
