T3 is not that bad. It's a good movie that just has the misfortune of following two masterpieces. People tend to exaggerate with hyperbole. If it's not on the level of T2, then it's trash? Come on....

Glad you checked out this one. As to the how they continued the research. It's never said, but after Dyson blew up the research and terminator info. That doesn't mean all the other researchers would stop. If some had their own backup disks. Even with partial info it could have restarted the program.

Hi Caroline!😊 By this time Carolco Pictures had gone bankrupt like many film companies from the 80s. However, they still owned the Terminator rights so they reformed as C2 Pictures to collect money for the use of the rights. I actually am a fan of the Terminatrix here. I like they made a new Terminator that is more advanced and even has weapons. I believe the machine John turns on is a supercollider. It is a high energy particle accelerator. Great reactions to the third Terminator film, Caroline!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏 P.S. - The actor that previously played John Connor developed drug problems and was away from films for a while.

[@carolreacts]

I love to learn things like that from the comments! Thank you, Mike!!!

[@melinaamaral]

Great reaction as always. Keep up the good work, Carol! 😍

[@JamesGilburt-lb7sg]

Hi Carol, brilliant reaction to this, I enjoyed it, I love your reactions. This is a decent sequel and although nothing was going to be better than T2, this was the next best thing. Arnold Schwarzanegger worked out for 3 hours a day for 6 months to get back up to the body build he was when he did T2! Please continue with the franchise and react to Terminator: Genysis - it's an alternative timeline to the original movie but is still good and worth watching. Arnie's back :)

[@carolreacts]

Oh wow! Will do! Thank you so much!!

[@spurgurius]

Since you continued with 3. I recommend you check the next one terminator salvation. Its actually really good and its based in the future, on the ongoing war.

[@CMS14]

GREAT REACTION\!! I really enjoyed the review in the end :)

[@suproliver]

I highly recommend that you watch the TV show, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. It came out after Terminator 3 but only ran 2 seasons. It was an exceptional show. Sarah learns of her untimely death in the future passing due to leukemia. Unlike Terminator 3's timeline, Sarah prevents that timeline from taking place when she decides to quit smoking. The series ended just before Terminator: Salvation came out in theaters. -OG

[@d34d10ck]

People are really exaggerating when they say it's a bad movie that you shouldn't see. Just because it's not perfect like the first two parts doesn't mean it's not good.

[@dont_give_a_flying_f]

The big circular thing that the tx gets stuck too is a particle accelerator. It uses high power magnets to control particles. It's used in science to fire particles at each other for varying scientific reasons. Why its at a us army base in the film I have no idea haha. Terminator salvation is also OK as an action film

[@TheMightyCookieShow]

I tend to hold t3 in the regard as being a part of the overarching story we got in the first 4 films before they shyt the bed with reboots. So in that sense, I loved t3

[@calisthenicsmachine9725]

This one is my personal favorite in the franchise it's criminally underrated thanks for doing it. As for judgement day being inevitable it makes perfect sense given that's how T1 set it. So the explanation isn't lazy T2 changed everything that was set in T1 and narratively T2 makes no sense. All T3 does is correct those errors and puts things back in place.

[@Ritmogag]

Terminator 4 is definitely worth watching. After the first and second films, this is probably the best sequel. Yes, Arnold didn't star in it, but there are plenty of other good actors there. The adult John Connor, played by Christian Bale, was shown there very well, unlike John, who played Nick Stahl in the third film

[@frankmiller4550]

Thank you for watching. I'd recommend watching all of them, even T5 & 6. I love T3, T4 & The Sarah Connor Chronicles. See for yourself, you're halfway there.

[@LordLOC]

I never understood why people say not to watch this movie. Yes, it's no where near as good as the first two movies, that much is obvious. BUT, it is a damn good action flick with incredible action set pieces AND it is a pretty decent enough Terminator story that does something different (which is end the world, which I guess is why people hated it). Arnold is so fun in this one. And while the rest of the cast is fine - John Connor in this is seriously miscast sadly. He's fine overall in the movie but he is not "John Connor" really. The TX is a fun twist, but very underused overall until the last act of the movie really.

[@DaBeastu]

Its not that bad of a movie if you dont want it to be a part of the cameron universe thats fine because its not. Remember in thr first movie reese says one possible future there are so many timelines. The original timeline is best but its not aweful.

[@miker252]

Maybe it's because I've been Claire Danes fan ever since I saw Polish Wedding, but I really liked this movie. It has its problems, like the terminator controlling vehicles that don't have the actuators to shift gears are steer themselves. The first two movies also have paradoxes, like sending your farther back in time to impregnate your mother or cyberdyne sending the Terminator back that becomes its own original source technology.

[@feudist]

This movie wasn't bad at all, it just suffers in comparison to the first too. There were a few missteps and bad choices, and it clearly lacks Cameron's sure hand. Salvation...has issues, and of Genisys, the less said the better. Dark Fate wasn't miserable at all. The TV series is really the continuation of the first two and returns to the darkness and desperation of The Terminator. I think one of the problems that the sequels have is that they each try to be bigger and more bombastic than the last. The TV series concentrates a lot more on character development, the implications of time travel and the dilemmas that Sarah and John face as they try to fight an ever evolving Skynet.

[@pablopallone]

Unfortunately, it is unfortunate that certain people have such bad taste regarding this film because that means that when you react to it you already have a preconception. In my opinion, this film has better effects, it has more action and it's definitely much better acted than the second one, it follows the timeline of the first two and above all we can see how it all started, that is, how the machines took over for the first time. the control of humanity. For me it is even better than the first two. Without further ado, I send you my best regards.

[@interiorsinsync]

I am so glad you decided to continue watching the saga. Amazing reaction, Carol!

[@jimshreve83]

Carol you amuse me, because you remind me of Anna from Butterfly Spanish. T1 - Best Premise T2 - Best Story and action T3 - Best Humor and most destruction

[@martinsv9183]

Yeah the 3:rd one isnt bad. Its just that when you compare it to the first two.. Its not iconic in any way. Its not James Cameron who made it either. So not the same feel to it. But its an ok movie you can watch if you have nothing better to do.

[@chrislaustin]

As someone who doesn't like most critically acclaimed movies 95% of the time, I'm the first one to skip a needless sequel, but this was a decent effort. The ending here was the best IMO from all three of the original trilogy, as it showed no matter what, eventually the machines would rise up. Having a women as the Terminator was always going to be the next iteration as that's how Hollywood works, but she did a great job as being a soul less killing machine. As for the movie overall, I'm fine with sequels so long as they add to the character/story, vs ruining what was before or just flat out crapping all over it(Disney SW, looking at you). The story here added a good deal to John's backstory and I felt it was done well. The only movie movie in the franchise I saw after this was "Dark Fate", and yeah, I would very much pass on that one. As that does what I just described as being a no no, brought nothing new to the table and and pooped over everything that came before.

[@neilgriffiths6427]

The original actor for John could have been cast, but he sadly had "lost his way" in real life and wasn't suitable. I think it's a good film, a well worthy entrant in the Terminator series, thanks for reacting to it! :)

[@ericdenney3302]

Terminator 2 spoiled us. Changing out John Connor in this and not having Sarah in it also didn't help matters at all.

[@haroldcruz8550]

The T-X (female Terminator) used the gun initialy because her primary built in weapon takes time to charge, her plasma cannon is more suited against something like Arnie-s T-850

[@willmartin7293]

Great reaction, Carol! 👍😊 I recommend that you watch all of the Terminator movies, because they each advance the storyline more and you get to find out how the future changed according to what happened in the previous movies. 😊 There are some naysayers who will try to talk you into not watching any of the sequels after T2, but I think it's weird that they wouldn't want you to watch a film just because they didn't like it. Especially since they have seen all the Terminator movies, and they just don't want anyone else to enjoy them. Also, I encourage you to watch both seasons of the "Sarah Connor Chronicles," because it shows how Sarah raised John.

[@matsv201]

The 4th movie isnt really bad. The issue with it is that its a very diffrent seting and not really a standard sceen for sceen recreation of all the other movies. Terminator 4 is not a terminator movie in the clasic sense, but more of a war movie with terminator setting

[@lewisner]

I thought T4 was great visually but the story was incoherent.

[@matsv201]

@@lewisner Well.. the story could have been better. But i would say a major flaw of the movie is that it was made in the dark period. Where everything suppose to be griddy and dark, so you can´t see what happening. Say like the Brown or the blue period before or the yellow period after.

I like them all T1 Insane T2 Best Everything T3 Comedy, nostalgia I have driven on the same roads on the edges of Downtown LA, but really it's just because of Claire Danes.

[@ettcha]

39:56 In extended lore, the liquid terminator from the 2nd movie was essentially a giant liquid brain, capable of eventually developing its own line of reasoning, awareness and individuality. Skynet stopped making them for that reason. I think it showed glimpses of that on screen in those interactions you mention. So while the terminatrix is technically newer, it was inferior, or superior if you are Skynet, in that regard. Now, if you ask if all this was known and considered during the writing process of T3, I have no idea! It's just fun world building that adds to an already interesting universe!

[@BizzyX78]

----- - Great reaction... I hope that you for the sake of continuity, decide to watch the rest of the saga/franchise. The summary/review at the end is a nice touch, 'cause it's more than just a question about whether or not you liked the stuff that you watched. It's also very interesting to hear the reason(s) as to why you think/feel the way you do about the things that you react to... -----

[@wmichael78]

I think you said it perfectly. The first two worked so well because of good writing and direction. I think the way #2 ended, they intended that to be the last one. Then they saw how much money #2 made and thought, 'Hey let's do it again!' #3 was good, entertaining, but yes, the writing was not as good.

[@raybernal6829]

Great reaction Carol. I have really enjoyed the Terminator movies just for what they are .. fun. I will not compare them to the first teo as those are epic especially T2. Arnold really didnt want to do this movie especially with James Cameron not involved. AS asked JC about that and JC told him to ask for as much money as he could get(a record $30M) and do it. Which he did.😊

[@adampare8088]

I liked T3. Now, Salvation and Genysis are junk you can skip them. Dark Fate is fun, sorta picks up from where T2 left off

[@Cenindo]

It is not a horrible movie, its main problem is simply that it wants to be the sequel to the masterpiece that is T2, and that was always going to be a terribly hard act to follow. Also, it has certain subtle continuity problems with T2, such as the age of John Connor in that movie. T3 may be regarded as 'fan fiction' by another writer and director than James Cameron. If you find things to enjoy in it, well and good, but we don't have to regard the movie as wholly canonical.

[@interiorsinsync]

I totally agree.

[@CMS14]

agreed!

[@matsv201]

This is the progression of pretty much every large movie series. 1: thriller 2; action 3: comedy 4: tradegy

[@CarlosHuiskens]

Well technically the second movie doesn't count as ''An original'' also. Only the first movie is the original and this is simple a sequel just like the second one. But the second Terminator is one of those rare moments in which the sequel is better compared to the original and therefore it is highly regarded. Also if you intend ( and I hope you are ) to watch all Terminator movies do keep in mind that not all of them connect to each other. As a matter of fact it could get confusing. So because of that I'll post a little list of which movies are connected and which are stand-alone as of the latest movie. Just keep this list in mind if you intend to watch them based on order of release. - Terminator - Terminator 2: Judgement Day - Terminator: Dark Fate As of Terminator: Dark Fate these 3 movies form a trilogy. It basically removes/retcons Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines effectively removing it as a sequel. - Terminator: Rise of the Machines As of the latest movie this movie which you recently watched can be considerd a stand-alone movie set within a different continuity. - Terminator: Salvation While technically stand-alone and set within it's own continunity you could in theory see this as a sequel to Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. - Terminator: Geneysis. Completely stand-alone and set within it's own continunity. It was meant as a soft reboot.

[@LynnDisclose]

Precious reaction:💯 Terminator 2 was telling us the AI was coming back in 1989, terminator 3 is telling mankind that AI is here and is taking over. You can see back in 1989 when terminator 2 came out Ai was not here yet you couldn't talk to the radio like people do now that lady to change songs, you couldn't talk to cars and they move or do what you say. There not robots taking over jobs or robots as waitresses in restaurants Now we got phones that can do anything and cars that can drive themselves. We got robots that can talk to humans and robots that help children with school work. Robots learning from people. Terminator 2 if you think about it told us this was coming over 35 years ago, now it's here. Terminator 3 is saying Ai is going to take over we can slowly see it coming if you paying attention. They put stuff in the movies real messages. skynet is really like Ai attacking mankind off towers power grid..... Subliminal message there if people can think outside the box. God makes sure everything is exposed but yet people are still in a transe. AI is not of God bm

[@athens_1psvr31]

If you want to keep this story going you can watch “Genysis” and “Dark Fate”. “Salvation” is a prequel that can be watched whenever at this point.

[@LordLOC]

Man, Genysis gets such a bad rap. I absolutely LOVE the action in that movie. Some of the best action in the series, seriously on the order of T2 imo. The twist would have been much better received if they didn't SPOIL it in the damn trailers though. I don't have a problem with how they changed things, since it was a rebootquel setting up a new trilogy. Dark Fate was also quite a fun action romp, and Linda Hamilton alone is worth the price of admission. Changing things yet again for a new trilogy was fine but it wasn't handled in the best way, also the opening with you know what - people hated that (while I was alright with it, considering Genysis lol)

[@athens_1psvr31]

[@redmoonbloodmoon3161]

Kristanna Loken is such a good actor, she respected the terminator IP greatly, and thus she agreed without any hesitation to do the n'de entrance time-portal scene, as that's one of terminator's IP themes, and she also played/acted like a terminator (robot/machine-movement-acting-etc) really well too, much better than arnold does as a terminator, and arguably better than the guy who did the liquid-metal terminator in T2, and she also was quite intimidating/scary as a terminator too, on top of moving/acting like a robotic/machine terminator as for the movie, it's enjoyable, and it really doesn't have any major flaws, probably the only thing that really actually hurt it is coming after T2 being such an incredible movie, it just couldn't match that, but what could? Oh, one other (possible) negative with it, is that they did the same scenes and etc format, ya, thus keeping it "consistent", but I think most people wanted it to be more different and not repeating the same scenes and format, at least back during that time, but now, I think we appreciate a movie keeping the same scenes and format a bit more also, in the dark knight, how batman uses his bat-cycle and the cable cord to flip joker in the giant semi-truck over, it likely came from this movie's similar scene of the semi-truck flip over

I didn't think it was THAT bad. I appreciated the fact that it continued the story. That being said, I thought that both John and Kate were miscast, and I did get second-hand embarrassment from some of the attempts at humor, however, it was all worth it just to see Dr Silberman get up and f****** run when Arnold showed up.

4:10 she was not sent to kill John Connor because Skynet didnt expect him to survive T1000 from Terminator 2, so this terminator T-X she was sent to kill his liutenents thats why her reaction when she tasted Johns blood and found out that he is still alive also why is the judgment day is inevitable is because for it to happen there exist infinite posibilites for example if you kill everyone who made skynet how do you know that someone else wont make a smart AI similar to skynet

[@interstellardave]

This movie fixes issues in the storyline! Yes, the first two are superior, but you can’t have technology getting developed because it came back in time from the future, which those movies imply. It has to be created first in order to come back from the future. And if the future really is prevented, as the second movie states, how was John ever born in the first place? It’s this movie that makes it all make sense. Skynet was created, initially, because that’s what we humans do. In the first movie some tech gets left behind which only means that the new timeline sees the development of Skynet happen more quickly. Destroying the future tech, and all the research that they could in the second movie, only delayed the inevitable. There was always going to be people trying to develop this kind of technology.

[@BatFan1]

That's the "Back to the Future" theory of time travel that wouldn't be how time travel would affect the present. The timeline where the machines exist can't be erased because it happened (you have to stop thinking as time as linear and start thinking of it happening all at once), that's why they are able to keep sending Terminators back in time. To avoid spoilers in case Carol reads this comment. If you back in time and kill Hitler it doesnt prevent WW2, someone else takes his place. That's the error with the machines, thinking that by eliminating Sarah, or John, it would prevent a human resistance, when inevitably, just like Judgement Day cant be stopped, someone would rise to fight the machines. That's the universe "Self correcting" theory of time travel.

there are limits to what's possible in sequels,(especially for a 3rd film) I think Cameron would have made this 3rd film darker more violent, BUT he couldnt have made anything that was more original. the films faults are- too kid friendly not in the sense of watering down, but for the corn lines like "talk to the hand, & the Elton john eye glasses after the stripper act that didnt work as humour. having established who was who in T2 it was hard getting used to these new characters & a different John Conor, this didnt feel like an...over lap a continuation very much, where as it could have.

Is It REALLY THAT BAD??? no, it's much much much worse.

[@thejamppa]

No, this film is not bad. Its not as good as T2, but its not bad. It has reputation, since people were disappointed of it. Its understandable reaction. T1 nobody had expectation. It was hit. T2 people were slightly optimistic and it blew the bank. It garnered huge fandom, third one was put huge, huge expectations and when it was not met, it was given bad/ flop etc rating by people. Same principle is shown kids, when they want that one toy for Christmas and beg it for months, once they get it, its not like they imagine and throw it away after few days. This film has one major weakness and its unfortunately how script made John Connor look like. Depressed alcoholic running away... Certainly you would have trauma what would happen, but still... They could have written Connor much more compelling way. Like Nomad on the move, prepared, having nightmares but still willing to help people. You know, good old Renegate (Tv show) style.

It's pretty bad but worth watching (it's like an alternative T-3 mini-movie, made on a much lower budget and without the same level of passion.. Maybe even worth reacting to? It's only about 20 minutes long. Loved your reaction, Thank you. I Can't wait to find out what you have in store for us next. :)

Wow Wookie this is really cool! I’ve never heard of the Terminator 2-3D. Thank you! I’ll check it out!

[@T291]

Greetings from Finland girl!!! Definitely yes you should check out Terminator Salvation witch is the best sequel after judgement day if you ask me!!! Fun fact that the gas station is the same in all the first three movies!!! "i'll be back" 😎

My favorite terminator because I love Clare Danes. Actually my favorite Terminator is the TV series because of Summer Glau.

[@tallicafan85]

I think i like this one a tad better than the second one.

[@suzanapimentel3271]

Maravilhosa como sempre 🤩

[@kunvar5774]

This is actually very Great film. I loved it as much as the other two since my childhood.

[@xenomorphelv4265]

T3 is a toned down version of T2, on every levels : filming techniques, acting & emotions, special effects, soundtracks, script.

[@diavanille6179]

Carol, if you watch the tv show, the Sarah Connor Chronicles, i will like each video you do for each episode

[@blaster-vv8so]

I liked the next one "salvation" but many people don't like it I think you should watch it the next one ruined things for me and I did not watch dark fate.

[@michelluzsouza]

T1 Horror flick T2 SciFi Action Adventure T3 Tragic Comedy T4 Who Cares

[@georger.3489]

T3 surely can´t compete with the first two but that doesn´t make it automatically bad. Nice shirt by the way, greetings from germany 😉😁

[@carolreacts]

True that! Thank you!

[@carlospozaplaton3089]

REACT TO A MASTERPIECE THE SCHINDLERS LIST' GREAT FILM,SAD 🆒🙏🇪🇦

[@UberDurable]

The casting is one of this movie's biggest flaws!

[@JohnSmith-jn7nc]

It's not that bad simply because T2 set the bar too high but it is still an underwhelming sequel. You can tell by watching it that the people who made this movie simply didn't understood Terminator. Terminator wasn't supposed to be big, loud and dumb action movie with forced humor like they threated it with this one. I blame the screenwriters and the director of the movie the most for this mess. The idiot director simply doesn't get it. He stated that he wanted to make a Terminator movie because he was blown away by T2 when he saw in a theater so he simply made a lazy, dumb, over the top rehash of T2.Typical of the action movies in the early 2000's.

[@diltberg9627]

Totally disagree I went to the theatre twice to see this movie it's my favorite t2 is my second favorite

[@SkIzOjImBo]

It was indeed a very fun movie, but they lost the oppressive tone of the 2 first. Liked the action, but we lost the feeling of a Terminator movie right here. I did like Salvation too, but again, the first 2 hit to high. No one could pulled off better these masterpieces.

[@liberator8858]

4 movie better. World of machine, match more interesting (no schwarzenegger) but not bed, from story telling perspective

[@ВЧЕМСИЛА]

now look at Alen and Alien2

[@WilliamTheUnkownShoutout]

@user-co7gs4fl3z and The Thing (1982) I hope Carol Reacts to that one as well:).

[@mattx449]

I looked up cringe in the encyclopedia and there was a still from this movie. 😂 it’s so bad, it’s basically a parody.
