Robert Patrick Explains His T2 Run | CONAN on TBS

[@Seqtopus]

You know he killed that role when the way he ran was iconic.

[@KRAFTWERK2K6]

It's the details. And the audience notices these things just as much as the director and actor. Especially a dedicated and thankful audience who knows what they like.

[@ratchet319]

Joaquin Phoenix' Joker?

[@gomersimpson2978]

No he doesn’t

[@buddysemken905]

Remember Wayne’s world? Lol

[@darthrevan2957]

*naruto running busts in the room

[@ezelkir]

What I really like is that he doesn't blink when he runs, or when he shoots. I think that adds a lot to the creepy / robotic impression the character gives. Great performance.

[@Gumbier_Than]

Edouard Imbert He didn't show any fatigue at all. That must have been some serious training to do that. I can't hang! 😵

[@nexusvexusus4096]

I've always suspected that's why they gave Arnold shades to wear. If you minimize the blinking, the actors seem more robotic and less human.

[@zacharygreene1979]

Yea it makes sense cause what purpose would a terminator have in blinking while shooting, it would look dumb if they did.

[@Nine-Signs]

Even Eastwood blinked. Robert is cool as a cucumber.

[@kenchung2675]

Billybob Thorton - Ya. It would look like a blinking idiot. 😂

[@Lalaxbo]

Robert Patrick was terrifying as T-1000 . It was really awesome how they accomplished T-1000s running . The special effects were amazing in T2 Judgment Day and it still looks awesome to this day . Robert Patrick is the one and only T-1000

[@Elly3981]

A friend of mine joked about what people thought when they saw the T-1000 run after John on foot when the kid was riding a motorcycle. They must have thought "Wow, that's one dedicated cop!" XD

[@SIKE01]

He runs like a brotha

[@chrisgemmell2742]

He said they had to do that scene a few times because robert actually caught john connor the bike wasnt fast enough

[@nthgth]

In a sense, that's not really surprising. It's a prop bike after all.

[@nthgth]

@Jack D Do you think John's top speed (looked like maybe 35, 40 mph) is realistic for a 125cc dirt bike? And does it sound realistic?

@Jack D Not even 125cc... 100cc, it's a Honda XR100. A top speed of 35/40mph is realistic for a 100cc dirt bike.

[@mkram2154]

Fun fact: Robert Patrick actually caught the kid in the first camera take.

[@lewisner]

At the time (1991) I read that he actually hit Arnold with the crowbar and Arnold (sounding like the Terminator) said "Don't do that again".

[@nickpappas9527]

He should have gotten an Oscar nomination for his performance

[@radupopescu2370]

I agree, but he achieved immortality through this performance, so I'm sure he's not upset :)))

[@EricMussBarnes]

I worked with Robert Patrick on _Double Dragon_ for the scenes filmed in Cleveland. Very cool guy. Friendly. Personable. Down-to-earth. His little brother Richard was playing guitar for Nine Inch Nails and on a day I wrote a NIN shirt to the set, Robert and I started talking about music. Nice fella. I really liked him.

[@ChopperGreg]

InkShard - a vlog from author Eric Muss-Barnes yes man. He was my dad’s neighbor for a little while and he was definitely a cool guy. We saw him outside watering the grass all the time and we stopped and talked to him a few times, and he just came up and leaned on the window like any other guy. Richard not only played for NIN but was the frontman for Filter as well!

[@Nine-Signs]

Trent Reznors body of work is the theme tune to my life and has been for 30 years, he is the reason I write music and trained to be a sound engineer. And Robert is one of the best character actors I've ever seen on screen. :o) Thanks for sharing.

[@MrHalo087]

such a cool underrated actor.

[@ComedyLoverGirl]

Exactly, I can't believe he's so underrated. T-1000 is pretty much still the only role he's very famous for. Perhaps he had limited range and that role fitted him very well?

[@nexusvexusus4096]

Even more underrated was the kid playing John, Edward Furlong. What happened to him after Terminator 2? I never heard anything about him again.

[@zacharygreene1979]

I remember him from Soprano's as well

[@Grandmaster_Sub-Zero]

[@RememberRox]

Love arnold but this guy did the best terminator in my opinion!

[@MrZackavelli]

I think it's fair to separate the terminators into two categories; protagonist and antagonist. Obviously Arnie's the best protagonist, but I'd agree Robert's T-1000 was a better villain than Arnold in t1.

[@Talsedoom]

this guy was a real killing machine.

[@princevegeta9763]

Logan Gunnoe Nah when people think Terminator and evil guy, their mind always drift to this guy, everyone views Arnold as the good terminator, this dude didn't even talk and he was still a menacing villain

[@nicosimioni7363]

The T-1000 was and still is freakin scary. The first time I played Resident Evil 3, I got so scared by Nemesis because he reminded me exactly to the T-1000. Such a brilliant performance.

[@macrostheblack8101]

Schwarzenegger is Terminator. No comparison. T2 onwards are not worth watching.

[@Robbie_S]

This guy had the most scariest nightmarish scene while still looking so good. The way he Ran, Drove Tow trucks, Killed people using his long sharpened finger tip and he did it as if he was really something else. Man what a performance, he is all time best Villian ever.

[@seanbillington3287]

I'll bet Tom Cruise's favorite movie is T2, and he's been trying to perfect the T-1000 run ever since watching it.

[@SerMattzio]

They actually bothered really going for it with the story, which I think is what made it so great. T3 felt like a generic shite action film with a 2D laser copy of the T2 story shoehorned in.

T2, H.E.A.T, dusk till dawn, desperado,Scarface, First blood, blade, last action hero, cradle to the grave, fast & furious, double impact, bloodsport, mortal kombat....I could go on and on, some brilliant films made back then

[@Mercer000]

That is actually the most efficient way of running, and it fits perfectly for the robot character. The filmmakers knew what they were doing.
