And the true ending to the terminator story

[@jackthegreek6092]

This is a dumb thing to say. Terminator 1 used rear projection, which is what green screen is.

[@bigtechisbigbrother8690]

@@jackthegreek6092 That's incorrect. Rear projection and green screen compositing are two different techniques. Rear projection is where actors are filmed in front of a screen with images projected on it, so the whole scene can be captured in-camera. Green screen (AKA chroma-key) involves filming actors or other objects on a literal green or blue screen which, when the film is developed, appears clear, so the image can then be composited onto another background in post production. And why bring up T1 when we're talking about T2?

@@bigtechisbigbrother8690 Right, but it doesnt yield vetter results. And its pasting the footage on to another background, same as green screen.

There are some minor flaws but nothing that detracts from the experience. That’s to be expected in such a massive undertaking. The most obvious one is the windshield falling out of the tow truck after it jumps the overpass but it reappears back in place after the cut. It wasn’t caught until after the final editing which bothered James Cameron for a long time so he had it fixed for the latest 4K transfer/release.

Robert Patrick is hands down my favorite Terminator, I love the big man don't get me wrong but I remember seeing T2 and scoffing at the start when I saw Robert first. I was like he is supposed to take on Arnie? Him? This wee runt? I am pleased to say how wrong I was. He was such a great villain, formidable vicious, and menacing. He elevated the film because he was that good at being bad. Towards the end, I was saying he's unbeatable. Great suspense. Great film.

[@skahwt]

The first time they fight in the mall and Arnold fails to wrest the gun from his hand it became apparent that he was not only an equal, but a greater threat. 30 years later and it’s still one of the great action movies.

@Russell Collier Such a good actor lad, I came across the poker episode a few days ago funny enough. That bit at the end when the game is over was stellar acting by both him and James G.

[@victorjozek5384]

Today a lot of movie concepts and stories are dependant of CGI effects. And when it needs special effects, it can't work without CGI because it has to come along the other modern movies. Hand made effects had something unique and powerful that made them authentic, real, but it was expensive and had its limits. CGI won't ever get the same power and energy, but it offered limitless creativity and a way to built a movie on an infinite scale (like Marvel movies for example).

T3: No Fate

@@danielanderson8322 hmmm...interesting concept.

[@BartechTV]

I remember watching this in the cinema when I was a kid. Absolutely blown away.

[@hectorlopez1069]

The greatest sequel ever.

[@alidk5923]

I was born in Dec 1991, I remember watching this movie with my family when I was few years old. it left something in me as something beautiful in my childhood. I wish I was old enough to enter this movie in theaters. The people who did saw it in theaters and specially in theaters near it's shooting locations in California those people have all the luck in the world.

[@kornfreak78]

All these many years later and it remains as the greatest action movie of all time. There is no topping T2. It's simply perfection.

[@allankariman91]

T2 was one of the best and it can not repeat again in 100 years

[@IdkMyDude]

I’ll always love T1 and T2. These films are so iconic. James Cameron directs some amazing movies

[@chloesdad1000]

32 years and counting and still a classic.

[@muhanadtayfour7992]

just watched it again last week after so many years , not many words to describe such magnificent work , it is just epic in all aspects

[@damonk3674]

I was honoured to be able to watch it at the cinema and it's one of greatest films ever. 1991 was the start of a new decade and we had the terminator watching over the 90s

[@keithbunyan2321]

Terminator 1 and 2 were phenomenal films. Lucky to have gone to universal studios orlando as well to see terminator 3D. James Cameron is a genius.

[@Bob-ts2tu]

gotta be the greatest movie of all time. the special effects just blew me away

[@drewrosecrans9728]

No green screen 💯💯💯👍👍just pure hard work and it was raw

[@pumpkinface8151]

Sweet Jebus do I miss practical effects in movies, every movie looks like a damn cartoon now.

[@mackcummy4976]

CGI has it's merits but yes.

[@rosewatersaffron8430]

And in the rare case they use it, they smooth it out so much that they cut have gone CGI from the beginning. I like the rough style of practical effects.

[@alfreddreamer9097]

Yeah CGi does get overused. I liked the practical effects in District 9, Chappie and Jeepers Creepers too.

[@mikecarter8880]

Saw it the night it came out with a friend. One place was sold out, managed to get in at another theater. We were blown away. So many of the effect I didn't even know existed at the time.

[@dexedr1ne]

This movie was so well done considering how little CGI went into it and so much actual physically done scenes, it's absolutely amazing... they don't make them like this anymore...

[@robertdionne2311]

You are right Dex

[@bettywhite9634]

Because cgi doesn’t make good movies, but rather a nice tool to use.

[@SmartDumbNerdyCool]

@@bettywhite9634 But also the absence of CGI lends to more heartwarming storylines in general. If you can't fill up a movie with special effects, you actually gotta fill it with substance lol.

[@seanheader9279]

i seen it in paris when it came out around august 1991.....there was a cue a mile long to the arc du triumph......didnt disapoint.....i dont wanna get old....ill be staying until arnie gets old

[@isaac.chaves]

24:35 so this guy made the T1000 effects with a single 14'' screen and now I need two HD flat screen monitors for debugging a website xD

[@leroyo.4645]

Just watched this movie for the first time recently and now it's my top 3 favorite movies of all time. The cast, production, cinematography, soundtrack!! How in the world can anyone watch T1 and T2 and be bored at any point??

[@erfansvideos]

Nothing short of MASTERPIECE is what this movie was, is and will be.

[@PakistanIcecream000]

I watched terminator 2 stored a VHS tape many hundreds of times in the 1990's - that's how good this movie content is.

[@moachangkiri5952]

Believe it or not, Terminator 2- Judgement Day is the first ever movie that i watched in my life. It was in 1996, only 5 years after its released. Can't believe that my first movie was a Science fiction, and is still considered as the greatest Action and Sci-fi movie till date.

[@n00bster83]

This video popped randomly into my feed. This is one of the greatest cinematic masterpieces of all time.

[@shawn86x]

Probably one of the greatest sequels ever made in cinema history. I've seen his movie hundreds of times from VHS to DVD to Blu-ray to 4K. I've seen all these formats I also seen in theater in 4k This movie is amazing. I've analyzed every frame every scene, the movies is masterpiece. It's a movie buffs. Wet dream T2 outstanding film. The only other movie that comes close in sequel form for me is aliens and that's for a different time in another story .cheers

[@mickeyballoons3963]

Empire strikes back?

[@bodhicastellano399]

I love how John has a “public enemy” shirt on in the film

[@charldippenaar8193]

Terminator 2 still after all these years, My favourite movie. Like Resident evil 2, my favourite game. Very good backstage clip. Made my day.

[@marklakra2745]

Robert Patrick as T1000 is one of greatest casts in Hollywood history

[@joeykim6550]

I’m here in 2023 and T2 is still a masterpiece.

[@ironmaskdj]

When you catch yourself watching a film for the umpteenth time, but it always feels like the first, then you've found the masterpiece that represents you. For me this film, Pulp Fiction, all of Kubrick and all of Scorsese, Apocalipse Now, Scarface, Matrix, Fight Club fall into this category. Like if you agree 👍and write below your "masterpieces" that you would look at endlessly👇👇👇

[@twohamburgers]

I was about ten years old when this came out and to this day I can't fathom how this production occurred. A pinnacle of any production, casting, crew, artistry...it's beyond me to this day. It almost makes me cry that communities of artists, technicians, professionals, visionaries and actors can't really come together anymore like this anymore. Besides, there wouldn't be a budget for it until some alternate reality in the future. It just must have been so exciting, so focused, and so full of life to have worked in any department of this production and either collaborate on the processes or be imagining or acting. Won't happen for a long time.

[@daniel6cil]

Theres no better word to say this movie is a trully masterpiece of perfection, and mindblowing to believe after 30 years any action movie can beat T2, Thanks James Cameron and all the artists you guys are the best.

[@Arkade86ST]

RIP Stan Winston, this and Jurassic Park were some of his greatest masterpieces, what an exciting time!

[@austinesautisolnamipendasa3856]

I think Mr Cameron is the best film director in history when you think of movies like titanic and terminator

[@madmike987655]

Don't forget True Lies and Aliens !

[@mientjeo4]

And Avatar! ♥️

[@GeeggerTVSPORTS]

Even you watched this film hundred times. Uncomparable! Best film ever made and it will last even forever
