Back then I would agree with you, but today with the computing power we have, CGI is far better, as long as it's done by a team of people that know how to do good CGI, in other words, CGI that looks so real that you can't really tell the difference from CGI and real life. Practical effects can be good, but CGI is better, and I know many won't agree with that, but many compare the best practical effects usually with some of the worst CGI effects, compare to some of the best CGI, and most won't even realise it's CGI because it looks so real, at least if it's doing something normal in everyday life. At the end of the day, whether it's practical effects or CGI, they are both just tools, it's up to the team behind them to get the most out of them, and as I said above, with the computing power we have, CGI is far better than practical, in the right hands.

If you are looking for the origins of time travel as a theme, the 1895 novel, "The Time Machine" by H.G. Wells, is the most well-known and set the standard for decades. The theme is MUCH older, however, with stories of time travel being included into the Hindu epic, the Mahabarata, which may have been written as early as 400 BCE. Nothing is new, we just keep re-exploring the ideas of past generations.

BEST SCI FI ACTION MOVIE EVER! Rock star Billy Idol (Dancing With Myself, Mony Mony, Cradle Of Love, LA Woman, and White Wedding) was originally considered for the role of the T-1000, but injured his leg in a motorcycle accident and Robert Patrick was cast in the role. The T-1000 was going to be in the first TERMINATOR film, but the VFX for his liquid metal form would have been very expensive and CGI was in it's infancy at the time. James Cameron revealed that gewas high on Ecstasy while writing the script. He said this in an interview while promoting AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER. The producers were going to remove the opening scene involving the Terminator and T-1000 arriving naked from the future, thinking it was a remake of the original, but when they noticed the Terminator didn't kill anyone in the bar, they learned he was the good guy and the T-1000 was the bad guy. It won 4/6 Oscars: Best Visual Effects Best Sound Editing Best Sound Mixing Best Makeup. It was nominated for Best Cinematography and Film Editing but lost to JFK.

The Terminator and T2 were the Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back for my generation. The Terminator is possibly the greatest "B-movie" ever made. By that i mean, it is the greatest low-budget sci-fi ever produced. Some of the effects stand out like a sore thumb. But The Terminator is still a great inspiration for future filmmakers. Cameron showed us what can be possible on a small budget and its freaking amazing. T2 on the other hand is the greatest action movie ever made. Cameron showed us whats possible once youve established yourself in the industry. And its freaking phenomenal. I mean, Linda Hamilton was so great in T2, she made Sarah Connor one of the greatest, strongest, most iconic female roles ever put on film. Her Sarah Connor is right up there with Cameron's own Ellen Ripley in Aliens and Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With The Wind.

T2 is so masterful as it manages to tell what is basically the same story as the first movie without ever feeling dull. It changes just the right things and builds upon the lore beautifully. It's real jewel however was Robert Patrick. To manage to become even more intimidating than Arnold with all his size and image from before was truly one of cinema's greatest performances. That alongside humanising the once inhuman Terminator are master strokes. Fun Fact, Robert Patrick got so good at running following his training for the movie, he was actually able to catch up with Jon Conner's bike in the scene where he chases him! Patrick had to deliberately run slower so they could get the shot.

Another fun fact: her twin sister was in the movie twice. Once as she was watching the kids on the playground. The woman she was watching as as of herself, was actually her. Also, the scene where she takes out the bullet from Arnold's head, the reflection of her it's actually her sister instead of the mirror.

A great review of a great film, and one clear indication of this being a remastered version of the film is that when the truck is seen crashing through the wall and landing in the canal channel, in the original early releases of it, the glass in the driver windshield is seen popping out, only later to be back in place to be pushed out by the T1000, but in this version the glass is seen to stay in place after the crash, on;y to be pushed out later anyway. Some good work by special effects. One other detail of the film, even the early ones, is at around 55:20, the T101 is seen pulling the spear through its body after powering back up. This was not originally a planned scene, but after watching it before its release, James Cameron thought that without it a large gap would be left in the storyline, so he called Arnie back off his next film to shoot that scene and then just fitted it in.

They did actually blow up that building. It happened in Fremont, Ca. I was in high school when they did it. We all heard about the building being blown up so we and some friends went waaaaaaay down the street, but as close as they would allow. Saw the building blow up, like 10 secs later we got hit by a warm wind. Cool memory

Interesting Fun Fact for you that most don't know about is that Billy Idol was originally was supposed to play as the T1000 as the script was written for him as James Cameron wanted someone that had a high value status name to play as the Villain but because of his motorcycle accident a month before shoot the movie had No option to go with a smaller cheaper cast known as Robert Patrick. Crazy to think how this movie would have been if Billy Idol was the T1000 makes me wonder to this day.

Some have wondered if it's a major plothole that part of the Terminator's arm was still in the machinery, especially since they took great pains to dispose of the other one. In the novelization, they actually did retrieve the arm and dispose of it. Of course, Cyberdyne Systems' breakthrough came from the original Terminator's broken CPU, more so than the arm.
@LukeLovesRose10 ай бұрын
I still prefer the ambiguous ending as seen in the theatrical cut. In the original release of T2, after Arnold is lowered into the molten metal, the movie fades to a shot of a black road. And Sarahs final monologue was far more natural and powerful. The theatrical ending also fits far better with the ending to The Terminator.

this is in my top 3 fave films easily - so many fantastic scene... and full of small details like when the T1000 turns up at the foster parents door and is asking questions... but in the background you can hear their dog going absoluuutely nuts barking non-stop! The T1000 walking through the jail bars is just incredible even today and the battle with Arnie at the end... i love that shot where the T1000 hits the wall and morphs through himself so much i incorporated it into my own animated film i'm working on lol! Its so fantastic to see you guys rate it so highly! I watched this when i was 15 at my mates house... i'm 47 now and still blown away by how good it is. I watch it annually along with Aliens, Predator, Robocop and some others T3 was missing something and bits are a little goofy but overall i personally enjoyed it. great vid thanks!

The ending you saw is the directors cut. It is the ending Cameron wanted, which was definitive, showing they succeeded and the story is over. The studio wanted a more ambiguous ending, leaving it open for more sequels, which is the theatrical version. Personally, I think the directors cut is the best, overall, with so many great scenes that were cut in the theatrical version, like the reprogramming scene, extra scenes with Dyson and his family, the scene with Kyle, and the clips of the T-1000 glitching at the foundry. That being said, I do like the theatrical ending best (probably helps that I like the sequels).

I'm thrilled and surprised that you guys loved the Director's Cut ending. The theatrical ending keeps the line "If a Terminator can learn the value of human life", but it's much darker and more ambiguous about whether or not Judgement Day has been averted. Most people find this ending kind of cheesy and overly earnest. Aside from the ending change, the two big changes are: 1. The dream in the hospital, with Michael Biehn coming back as Reese, was originally cut. 2. The subplot of Arnie learning is significantly simplified, completely removing the brain surgery scene for pacing. It's such a good scene, though. It's the one scene from this cut that really deserved to be kept, since overruling Sarah is a major moment for John's character arc.

Yeah, it was mentioned in one of the documentaries. They even had to time the start and stop with that tool that they use. It’s really subtle so it’s hard to miss but now that I knew what to look for if you go back and look at that scene, you can tell that they don’t exactly get it just perfect. They’re off by a little bit. But at the time the concept was really cool.

If memory serves me then the scene where the T-1000 is frozen and it's arms and legs break off then they just used a man missing those limbs made up to look like the T-1000. There was also a practical model made for when the T-1000 was blown up into that weird C shape before it fell into the molten steel
