Man, they really nailed the casting for the T-1000. That particular scene was the scariest for me as a kid. It's chilling the way he made a b-line for John, just immediate and full-boar, like a cat once it commits to chasing the laser pointer.

[@joshvenie2024]

"He had a twin in that movie." That was so funny to me, because he had a twin in this one, too. When we see Sarah dreaming, watching "herself" through the fence, that's actually Linda Hamilton's sister, too.

[@domplywood3247]

It's also her sister in the scene where they take the chip out of the T800 (Arnold's) head to flip the switch. There is no mirror, Linda's twin sister Leslie plays her reflection and copies her movements, a clever way to avoid having to hide cameras etc in the edit. Leslie is seen again as the T1000 version of Sarah Connor in the steelworks at the end. Some of those parts are short or missing in the theatrical cut, but the extended has them and both look great even when you know :)

Linda Hamilton is awesome in this. She gets a lot of credit for the physical changes she made, but the best part of her appearance here for me is when she was about to kill Dyson and broke down.

[@candicelitrenta8890]

The thing about the first film is that you need to see how Sara Conner is at first an innocent young woman not knowing anything outside of her normal life with her roommate, not believing this at first, having to be convinced it is really happening and coming to the realization that she had to go and learn about what she needs to do to become the woman who raises John Conner to be this great leader. Without the back story you would never understand where she came from and what it took to get her prepared to come up against this

[@Alfonso88279]

For some reason I think that movies in the 80s and 90s were so much more... I don't know, epic, iconic. Just look at those shots, there's a soul there.

Thank you EOM for being one of the very very very few reactors that noticed that Arnold did not kill anyone who attacked him at the bar, and how that indicates he is the good guy. SO many people just do not even notice that, and are so surprised later on when Arnold turns out to be the good guy. 💯✌

[@blytheguy7510]

I think the main reason he didn't kill anyone in the bar is because there was too many people there. Even a Terminator knows that would bring too much attention to him. In the first movie he walked up on 3 punks alone so there was no issue of killing them.

[@brei2670]

Yeah, I think they actually messed that part up. While I understand that the goal was to make the character a good guy (and he didn't kill anyone throughout the movie), it kinda ruined the reveal in that corridor. They even gave him a cool soundtrack for the bar scene... I wouldn't have minded if he killed someone early on, especially some bad guys who attacked him. Would have had me guessing longer.

[@Maj1nVeg3ta]

a lot don't notice but that's half the fun. It was also made this way to make you question at least a little like "huh." Personally I think that surprise factor is entertaining (considering they kinda ruined it back then with all the media attention and trailers)

[@BigGator5]

"Hasta la vista, baby." Fun Fact: Linda Hamilton's twin sister, Leslie Hamilton Gearren, was used as a double in scenes involving two "Sarah Connors" (for example, when the T-1000 was imitating her). Identical twins Don Stanton and Dan Stanton played the hospital security guard and the T-1000. No Camera Tricks Fact: Robert Patrick undertook a rigorous running regime and practiced breathing only through his nose, in order to appear to be a cyborg that could run at high speeds without showing fatigue. He had trained so hard that he was able to catch up to Edward Furlong on his dirt bike with ease. Stripper Night Fact: A female passer-by wandered onto the biker bar set thinking it was real, despite walking past all the location trucks, cameras, and lights. Seeing Arnold Schwarzenegger standing in the bar dressed only in boxer shorts, she finally asked what was going on, only for Schwarzenegger to reply that it was male stripper night. Nuclear Nightmare Fact: Special effects guru Stan Winston and his crew studied hours of nuclear test footage in order to make Sarah Connor's "nuclear nightmare" scene look as realistic as possible. A miniature Los Angeles was made to simulate the scene. Some of the materials used in the miniature that mimicked all the destroyed masonry were Matzos crackers and Shredded Wheat. After each take, it would take on average two days to set the model up to shoot again. In late 1991, members of several US federal nuclear testing labs unofficially declared it "the most accurate depiction of a nuclear blast ever created" for a fictional movie. The special effects team members have stated several times that no scene they've worked on since has received an equivalent amount of praise or emotional feedback from viewers.

Arnold's "spin-cock" move with the lever-action shotgun came from the likes of John Wayne (in some of his movies) and Chuck Connors (no relation with Sarah and John) as Lucas McCain in _The Rifleman_ . These are all westerns, which is natural because the Old West was when lever-action firearms were at their most popular. To enable spin-cocking, the lever loop has to be made a lot larger and rounder than it normally is from the factory. The very same lever-action Winchester shotgun used in this movie was also used in _The Mummy Returns_ by Brendan Fraser, although he doesn't spin-cock it (that I recall 🤔).

[@Renegade2786]

"I know why he's naked I just figured they'd fix that along the way" You do realize when Sarah said Skynet send two terminators back through time, she was referring to the terminators that were sent back to time to delete Sarah and her son. The first one went to 1984 to delete her and the other went to 1995 to delete her son. Both were sent at the same time. A lot of people, including me, misheard her and thought she say that Skynet sent two terminators back in time to delete John. No, John Connor send Kyle Reese back to 1984, and then they send this reprogrammed T-800 back to 1995 before (like what Reese said in the police station in T1) leveled time displacement complex.

Robert Patrick that plays the T-1000 said in an interview that he prepared for the roll mimicking a pray mantis and how they moved.

[@Armaldo468]

Well, that’s certainly a great way to play the role of an extremely dangerous infiltrator/hunter. Mantids (the group to which the praying mantis belongs) are perhaps among the most badass hunters to ever exist. Although most mantid species are harmless to us (because they aren’t adapted to feed on humans or anything dramatically larger than themselves), they are arguably some of the most ludicrously overpowered creatures in the insect kingdom, even being so well equipped for surveillance and ambush strikes that they can quite easily outfox and take down *spiders.* Some larger mantid species (which can reach up to around six inches long, amazingly) can even bring down smaller birds, thanks to their strong limbs and lightning-quick reflexes. (I read a little while back that mantids can strike multiple times faster than we can blink. About six times faster, if memory serves-which is utterly absurd, and it gets more and more absurd the more you think about it. How do you defend against something that fast?) The things are so stupidly powerful, it’s almost cartoonish. Yeah, I’d say Robert Patrick had the right idea. …Sorry for the somewhat nerdy rant there. I love bugs-at least, for the most part. (Some of the peskier varieties I’m not too fond of, though, and I have a love/hate relationship with spiders. Friggin’ eight-legged conquistadors, always trying to march in and take over everything.) The praying mantis is easily one of my favorite kinds, at that. Also I tend to ramble when I speak anyway.

Linda Hamilton's twin is in this movie. There was also a really cool scene in this extended edition (cut from theatrical Version).

24:28 People really used to keep their keys like that. This movie preceded a major uptick in carjackings that may have been induced by this movie pointing out that people leave their keys in their cars, so people began to take their keys more seriously, so parked cars were harder to steal. This is also done four years later in *Independence Day* when Vivica A. Fox confiscated the big truck after the city was destroyed. I can't think of any movies that did it after that.

You just saw one of the greatest action films and sequels of all time. It's perfectly acceptable for men to cry at the end of Terminator 2. I ain't afraid to admit I got teary eyed when I first saw the movie (shut up).

It's very rare I put two comments on a video, because I usually comment before I watched the video as a means of support, along with liking and subscribing LOL :-) but just in the first few minutes of this reaction, you picking up that Arnold might not be the bad guy, that the T1000 is absolutely the bad guy, your commentary on how Arnold would have killed everybody in that bar the last movie, Etc. That one person in the previous comment was absolutely correct, you have some of the funniest reactions on all of youtube! And you're clearly observant. think it's been a couple of months since I subscribe to you, keep up the good work homie!

Good eye on the security guard. He is an actual twin, and they were both in this. Also in Gremlins 2. Fun fact: Linda Hamilton (Sarah) is also a twin and her sister was in 3 different scenes of this movie.

I was a teenager when this came out and since both of my parents loved the first one, we saw this at the theater on opening night. The movie was fantastic, more than we had expected, but what I remember most clearly is the silence of the crowd coming out of that theater. Everyone was just blown away by the special effects. In 1991, they were unlike anything we'd seen before and it was stunning on the big screen.

T3 tells a different side of the epic story of John Conner.

[@seancartwright87]

Came across your reactions the other day. Literally have me laughing out loud watching. T2 one of the best films, one of mine anyway.

[@hayatotheninja]

I met the twins/security guards at a random arcade in Huntington Beach a little after this came out when I was a kid. Super nice dudes!

[@ClaudiaX2]

Fun tidbit: In the UK, I believe, Sarah's lock picking was censored because it was real and for some reason it was some kind of security issue. It's the weirdest movie trivia I ever heard.

I first saw this back when it came out on rental here in Norway. I was 10 years old at the time and it was the scariest movie I had ever seen. My uncle who saw it in the cinema couldn't stop talking about the special effects, and I think it can't be overstated how incredible they were at the time - I don't think they were matched until Jurassic Park came out. Today I feel we are very jaded when it comes to special effects. I don't think you mentioned it, but you might have recognized John Connor/Edward Furlong from American History X. He looks different with hair but his face is quite characteristic. You're completely right about how it was unnecessary to make any more movies after this, but no way a movie as successful as this one wouldn't have sequels. Unfortunately none of the subsequent movies are anywhere close to T2 in quality and of course you will compare them to T2, so it's a setup for disappointment. T3 is basically "what if there was a sexy female terminator" and it's as dumb as it sounds.

I never get tired of your "Detroit" comments lmfao and yeah, Budnick from 'Salute your shorts" xD

[@grahamrobinson9705]

Maybe the quickest “shut up!” We’ve had so far? 😅 we need a shut up compilation. My personal favourite was J getting shook by Mr Jingles from Green mile. 😂 happy new year to the EOM crew. Hope you have a great 2023 🎉

[@KHAOE1]

The kid who plays Miles Dyson's son is the actor who plays Kane on the show Snowfall.

[@magicbrownie1357]

I agree! T2 IS indeed a damn near perfect movie.

[@k333rl]

haha. love that you notice the kid from 'salute your shorts'

[@northernpunx1978]

This sequel is flawless. It’s the best one.

[@adamlmbawd]

I’ll one up the Cyberdyne T-shirt. I have the logo tattooed behind my ear. 🤣

[@shesemerald2011]

Linda Hamilton took my neighbor to his Marine Corps Ball.

[@bruceleeds7988]

"The HALON System" is used to prevent mass electrical fires. It's basically Co2 times 100.

[@vanpiisu88]

I loved your reaction! T2 is still one of the greatest sequels ever made and the CGI back in 90s was really mindblowing.

Actually, the T-800 (Arnold) never killed anyone in this movie. He maimed a few people early on, but didn't kill them. By the way, T-800 refers to the robotic combat chassis or endoskeleton. Model 101 refers to the human part that looks like Arnold. There are many other T-800s with various different models of human flesh. T-600s ("600 series "from the first movie) were the ones with rubber skin, and the T-1000 is the advanced prototype made of liquid metal.
