Ironically, T1 had the lowest budget and the best future war scenes. It just shows that no matter how much money you've got, when you lack creativity, you can't go anywhere.

[@Kareszkoma]

That's fair, but T1 is 40 years old and it often shows. The frames and picture.. is just not very nice anymore. The reason the effects and models are this nice, because they used real machines, toys, like most sci-fies at the time. Star Wars and Star Trek, while.. sometimes it looks horrible, they still look pretty good compared to their age. Movies nowadays cost horrible amounts compared to the 80ies. Top Gun: 15m budget -> 350m income. Beverly Hills Cop? 20m -> 300m. Terminator? 6.5m -> 80m. Rockie? 1.1m -> 225m. Star Wars 4? 11m -> 503m. Nowadays a movie is 50-200m and brings 400m or worse.

@@Kareszkoma CGI isn't cheap. People say what they will about using CGI over props, but there is a reason why graphic artists get paid the big bucks.

[@Kareszkoma]

@@mase002 My problem is not the money. It's the end result. T1 looks pretty damn good.. 40 years later. Some CGI is not .. "good looking" 5 years later. We have Avenger type of quality, at some points. But even avenger is ageing, like a time bomb. And thats a big bucket type of production. There are youtubers who animated star wars ships and the alike. It's fucking brilliant. It's more realistic than props. It exist. But movies do not get that sorrowfully.

Some of the aircraft in T1 are actually Moen faucets with plastic model parts glued on them.

@@muonneutrino2909 Thats fucking hilarious!

[@jamescollinge5043]

One of the reasons why T1's future war scenes are so effective is that the machine force is entirely inhuman - the sequels feature a shit ton of t800s, which is great for fanservice, but doesn't come close to selling the asymmetrical nature of the war or the facelessness of skynet as well

[@duncanharrell5009]

But those T-800s make sense as Skynet adapting to the Resistance’s Guerrilla tactics. Besides, armored units need infantry escort to prevent those attacks from happening.

[@MikeLitoriss69]

Those t-800s are a lot more menacing imo

[@QualityPen]

I think the newer movies rely too heavily on CGI. T1’s graphics have aged a bit, but the practical effects still add a kind of grittiness you can’t get from CGI. T1’s stop motion terminator is too choppy, but the way it moves is much more machinelike and creepy than the CGI T-800s.

[@grahamhill676]

@@duncanharrell5009 Infantry don't need to be bipedal and humanlike however

[@bluelantern9414]

T-800's are cooler in my opinion. They give a much more menacing feel. Yeah, big machines are cool. But it would be like if the Empire exclusively used AT-AT's in star wars.

[@Longi1974]

The scariest scene is at 6:10 when the Terminator infiltrates the resistance hideout. What is especially sinister is that Franco Columbu back then had the physical appearance of a traditional movie hero. With his wavy hair, handsome face and well-built physique, he kind of embodies the image of a movie good-guy. It really does enforce the idea that these machines were built to be infiltrators. His impassive slaughter of everything in the refuge, men, women, children and even the animals is terrifying.

[@jamescollinge5043]

Theyre being pretty run and gun in T2, tbf, but that's because we're seeing the final battle of the war when both sides are going all in

[@jackytran7818]

Where's terminator Salvation?

[@plaguedoctorjamespainshe6009]

Hear me out The resistance sent a group of humans to stop Skynet along with a T-800 and Skynet sent a guardian T-800 to the creator of Skynet after Miles Dyson is killed But the movie don't say that It treat as if the person being protected will stop the war from happening and the people hunting them are trying to stop it because they work for the evil AI, in exchange to live free in our present And only by the end when our protagonist wins and creates their AI, they realize too late that their T-800 was lying, that they were the evil ones the whole time

[@lichking3711]

Agreed on the first point but I have to disagree on the time travel. The way it was done was because Skynet already sent a terminator back in time and it is possible that the creator of skynet was unknown. Also, once time travel begins, future begins to change unpredictably, so even if Skynet's creator is killed, it is possible for someone else to continue or complete a similar project. Showing that aspect of the everchanging future was the entire point of the terminator series, first mentioned in the first movie.

[@diazdelosmuertos1503]

Watch Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. It’s about Sarah raising John into the man he will one day become, off the grid, using fake identities and avoiding digital footprints, all while doing everything they can to avert the Future War and prevent Skynet from ever coming into existence. It also has an interesting cast of characters you might be surprised to see. It’s the only thing past T2 that’s even worth a damn-aside from Resistance, of course.

[@yuampi5707]

Cromwell the Synth Yeah. But that’s why i always think that Salvation is missing something. The depiction of the depressing world in the future war. Look at 4:55 - 7:00 for example. Look at how this dream sequence tell us how sad, depressing and terrifying is to live in this future. Look at the faces of the children, the screams, all of them hurt and dirty, probably dying of hunger. Not only that but they also have to live with the fact that a Terminator is trying to hunt them. These are things that make imo the original movies so much better. It make sense for the characters to prevent this horrible future (at least in first two).

The original had the dystopian future down to a tee, focusing more on the hellish nightmare that the survivors had to live through. It also showed aspects of military tactics used by the human resistance in the form of gathering intel through reconnaissance and hitting the machines with the use of guerilla tactics, which are best implemented when fighting against a larger and stronger adversary. T2 displayed a scene where the resistance went on a full offensive, which while not as convincing as the original, still displayed some military maneuvering of getting troops into position and taking cover as they engaged the machines. The rest....just running with guns blazing. No evidence of even the most basic military tactics being adopted. Individuals just doing their own thing without any consideration of working with fellow troops as a coherent unit. The human resistance wouldn't last long at that rate, yet alone claim victory over the machines.

The T1 scenes are unbeaten in that you can feel the horror and agony of people living through hell on earth. The despair and sense of loss is palpable. If they want to revive the franchise, this is what they need to emulate, not the big explosive spectacle

James Cameron is a genius. The part from the underground base form the first film is very depressing and sad. It really requires something else from the director to be able display that.

Am I the only one who prefers the original sound effects from the first Terminator movie, before James Cameron updated them for DVDs and Blu-Rays to sound more like the T2 effects?

[@RatNinjaAlpha]

Honestly I thought I was going insane. The gunshots when the first Sarah Connor was killed used to be a meaty BLAM! But every time I've seen it since it sounds more like a movie silencer shot. Thought it was just me.

[@INWMI]

the laser sound from T2 is imposible to forget, idk how they archieved that the newer ones are like the random laser you find in any sound library, it even feel less powerfull

[@RatNinjaAlpha]

@@INWMI James Cameron really nails those future gun noises. My personal favourites of his being the pulse rifle/smartgun fire from Aliens. But I do agree that the plasma fire from T2 is tip top.

[@LATEEF505]

I do I could of sworn too in the original sound effects in T1 when the terminator sneaks in the shelter and just before Reese falls to the ground from the explosion you can hear someone say cowabunga I use to rewind that part all the time

[@ilyalead4blade897]

the scenes from T1 are still the best. so intense and dark. they have this cold feeling of being on the edge of an abyss to them

[@fulano9629]

what is so cool is that the terminators in t1, including the hk tanks and hk aerial killers are not CGI, they are actual prop models which what make it look so cool. And the way the terminators move in t1 and t1 with that flinching affect make it more "robot" unlike the group of terminators in dark fate where in the scene they walk they walk to smooth, it just takes the whole feel out of it just look at the difference in 17:24 compared to 8:53

[@enkidude9372]

[@zh2266]

Everybody says T4 which was the beginning of the machine war there were no reverse engineered plasma weapons at that time.

And lasers.

@@dracometeors3010 I guess, but the film I'm describing should have been the third and final installment not Rise of the Machines, Salvation, and Genisys.

We got Dark Fate instead which I never saw because it also IMO it didn't look good.

[@AngrySilence]

13:24 - To be fair, this is the only thing _Terminator Genisys_ got right, and more so than any other post-_T2_ sequels. "Are there other's down here?" is actually what an infiltrating Terminator would say, even to a child. While they are very strong and practically unstoppable with simple tools, they are also conniving robots meant to only kill. If they made a 2-hour movie out of that underrated opening, _Genisys_ would have become the best sequel, even with Jai Courtney as Kyle Reese and Jason Clarke as John Connor.

[@Kareszkoma]

Was that the movie with the latino girl screaming half throughout the movie and trying to beat a terminator with a pipe and her "latino anger"? Because it was absolutely horrible. That movie was bad. A couple actors were heavily carrying that one, and even then.. the plot was just.. ough.

Yeah, good attention to detail in Genisys' future scenes. Also, the infiltrator in the sewer is an early version, since Kyle is so young in that scene. Most likely a T-600. You can see the rubber skin for a second. It might have been a T-700 since it speaks and moves smoothly. Either way, it was cool to see a plasma rifle make short work of a T-600? since we didn't get to see that in Salvation.
