"The picture that he had was when she was thinking about him." That picture paradox is so poignant. I love that a scene like that lives in such a dark and tense sci-fi thriller.

1. Linda Hamilton ROCKED. She's really built in T2. Must watch next. 2. Along with Lance Henriksen/Vukovich and Michael Biehn/Reese also played in Aliens as Bishop and Hicks. 3.

"He's so giant." When Arnold was running for Governor of California he came to the local mall in my city. I was shocked at how short he was. I'm 6'2" tall and he was way shorter than me, although there were way too many people in front of me to do a direct comparison.

[@39Hundred]

Arnold is shrinking in his old age. In Pumping Iron, the bodybuilding documentary from 1977, it says the then Arnold was 6’2”, 248 lbs.

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

Apparently the endoskeleton model was 6'2"!!!!! I'd still find the endoskeletons terrifying, even if they were my height, rather than being taller!!!!! Even a woman-sized endoskeleton would be terrifying, though!!!!! :(

There's a wonderful picture of wrestler Andre the Giant and basketball star Wilt Chamberlain (I think) lifting Arnold like a child, if you Google the three of them. He's an extraordinary bodybuilder but he's barely north of average height. It's amazing how tiny and cute he looks flanked by two men over 7 feet tall, even at his full Conan weight.

The FX for this movie were top notch for 1984 and they still hold up to this day. Bill held the record for the longest time of being killed by three of the most badass Scifi characters.

[@DanJackson1977]

This was James Cameron's "Look what I can do" movie. It took all the skills he'd learned working as an art director for Roger Corman's cheapie genre movies... Cameron is an artist, matte painter, writer, model builder, director, cinematographer... the only thing he cant do on a film set is act. This movie looks like it cost 5 times more than it did. The sequel is Cameron with the world's biggest (for its time) budget... so it's a fun way to contrast what the same filmmaker can do with next to nothing vs hundreds of millions of dollars.

[@jenmurrayxo]

He did so much with T1!!

[@DanJackson1977]

@@jenmurrayxobtw Stan Winston deserves a shout out too... anothther brilliant artist who did the practical FX for the Terminator (working from Cameron's designs). Stan also did FX work on Aliens, Predator 1 & 2, T2, Punpkinhead (also directed it), and Jurassic Park (all the on set puppet dinosaurs). Fun fact: Lance Hendrickson (cop in this movie, Bishop in Aliens) was Cameron's pick to be the Terminator (see Near Dark to find out how that might have worked). Cameron was forced to see Arnold by a producer.. he reluctantly went... had no intention of hiring him.. but his angular face, his imposing figure and the fact that he brought up Yul Brenner's performance as the killer robot in the 70s Westworld film convinced Cameron to hire him.. Arnold was still unsure.. he didnt want to.do villain roles... so James did a painting of Arnold as the Terminator and sent it to him to convince him that, even though hes the villain, hes the default "hero" of the movie.

[@jenmurrayxo]

Very cool!! 😎👍

[@jorgezarco9269]

Jen was blessed with off-kilter, good looks. Brad Fiedel composed the music for The Terminator(1984). He played it with an Oberheim synthesizer. He also wrote music for Cameron's True Lies(1994). The Terminator feels like a 1970's slasher movie at times. Bess Motta appeared in lewd 1980's workout tapes on VHS. She worked on the failed TV show The New Monkees. The cop who gets beaten up by Schwarzenegger was the male lead in James Cameron's 1978 short Xenogenesis.

It's okay to cosplay as the villain, Jen. Love all of your outfits. 👍 T2 you get to see Sarah as a bad ass. I actually met Linda Hamilton a few years after T2 at Six Flags water park in Cali.

One of the movie trailers for Terminator 2 that came out in 1991 showed a robotic assembly line in the future, constructing the terminators. The trailer did a good job of explaining in just a few seconds how it would be possible to produce multiple Arnold Schwarzenegger characters.

[@nathan8590]

Michael Biehn does a really great job of selling Reese's love, devotion, and admiration to Sarah in that hotel scene. He also does a great job of portraying Reese in constant state of readiness and awareness. It was his idea to have Reese look into the camera & try to speak to the "person in authority" in the interrogation scene. He was an underrated actor. He was also in Aliens and The abyss, both James Cameron movies as well. He had a brief scene in T2 but was edit from the theatrical version. It's in the extended version.

As a 13-year old, this film Blew. Me. Away. I guess because the name, 'Kyle' was so rare at that point, I identified with Reese a bit more than normal.

So some trivia for this movie, it all was because of a dream. James Cameron was directing a movie called Piranha 2: The Spawning, had to fly out to Rome to work on it and it left him broke cause it was a cheap movie. Because he had no money, he had to live on leftover food in the hotel he was staying at which led to him getting food poisoning and being sick in bed. While sleeping, he had a nightmare about a metal endoskeleton coming at him out of an explosion with kitchen knives. When he woke up, he had the idea for the Terminator.

That year I went as The Terminator for Halloween complete with the leather jacket, a red glowing eyepiece and torn facial skin makeup with metal pieces that I did myself with Silly Putty... My Mother *hated* it. LOL! I actually got to meet Michael Biehn at Fan Expo in Toronto in 2011 and I was dressed as Future Resistance Soldier Kyle Reese (yes cosplay is "still" my thing). Micheal Biehn said that his two favourite roles were Johnny Ringo (from "Tombstone") and Kyle Reese. He said he loved this role because Kyle Reese gets to tell the audience what's going on in the film through the dialogue.

I like how 2029 is "in the future" but 1984 is "in the present time", though we're a lot closer to 2029 than we are to 1984... Thanks for sharing your experience, Jen.

[@jenmurrayxo]

Thanks for watching with me! 👍

[@jediradekcrif9568]

Great reaction again! Loved how you hit every single important moment and loved all the best parts. This movie is a neo classic and even though the effects have aged (it was shot on a limited budget at the time), the story is still flawless, the relationships were awesome and the performances were all excellent! Can't wait for your T2 reaction... you'll see a lot of the things you were talking about in this reaction...

The funny thing is, Arnold didn´t even want to play the Terminator at the beginning. He wanted to be a hero, not a villain and had his eye on playing Kyle Reese. Thank God that didn´t happen :D

[@jenmurrayxo]

Would've been such a weird movie that way!!

[@kevstershilling]

Ironically, they wanted OJ Simpson to play the Terminator, if I remember correctly.

[@captainchaos3667]

The Terminator rising from the fire is one of those epic cinematic moments that's seared into my brain.

[@kevinburton3948]

The scene where Sarah gives away where she is to the Terminator over the answering machine encapsulates the main theme of the film: "Machines will betray us."

[@bigdream_dreambig]

"Alright, so fire kills Terminator." Yeah, about that... 🔥🤖🔥

[@GenXJen78]

Hi, Jen! My name is Jen, too. And we not only share a name, but we also think alike, apparently... You: What the hell kills Terminators? Me: Gotta crush them. You: What if you crush him into a tiny cube?

[@jenmurrayxo]

Great minds Jen!!! 😆👍

[@futuramayeah]

Jen, in 1991 , James Cameron was going to make a live action Spiderman movie with Charlie Sheen as Peter Parker and the girl from the movie , Teen Witch , as MJ , but he couldn't get the shot he wanted of Spidey swinging through the streets, using cgi, so he could only get a liquid cgi character made, so he made the Abyss and Terminator 2 instead, Ahnold was going to be Doc Ock in the movie too

[@jenmurrayxo]

Ohhh I'm glad that didn't happen. Charlie is no Peter Parker

[@futuramayeah]

@@jenmurrayxo well he was close to a role model for us in the 1980s, he was the guy in jail with Ferris's sister in Ferris Bueller's day off , and he told her to live her own life , i think.

[@theshamurai32]

This and T2 were formative to my childhood. I remember going as the T-100 for Halloween like three years in a row when I was a kid, and I wanted to be literally just like Arnold when I grew up.

[@Krytos911]

"Is this another time travel movie, cause awesome!" Yes, and yes! Also yes, that is Hicks from Aliens! Good eye. Terminator 1 is a classic, and hard to believe was done on a relatively small budget at the time, according to google of only 6.4 million (I thought it was double that) - which is hugely impressive for the quality, look, feel, design and acting of the film. The stop motion is a bit janky, and the Terminator working on itself also not the best - but neither pull you out of the movie. Looking forward to your T2 reaction!

[@jenmurrayxo]

I loved it so much! T2 coming Fri! 😎👍

[@jorgezarco9269]

Michael Biehn was cast as Kyle Reese. He had a part in Planet Terror(2007). He also played Chris in the 1998 Magnificent Seven TV show on CBS. He was raised in Nebraska. Jai Courtney was cast as Kyle Reese in Terminator Genisys(2015).

[@TheMadMurf]

Yeah you should definitely watch Terminator 2 soon. You'll want some of the details from this movie to be fresh in your mind when you watch the sequel. Edit- I see from some other comments that you've already seen T2, great job!

Kyle Reese is in Aliens as Hicks. Michael Beihn is the actors name. You'll be seeing him in Mando at some point. He's also in the popular western Tombstone

[@jenmurrayxo]

[@edwardthorne9875]

Special effects were growing in CGI. Terminator showed the state-of-the-art to the masses. It also had the good sense to include a simple but effective story line, and developed the characters enough that we were engaged. And who doesn't enjoy a good explosion? Nice job reacting - hope the puppy didn't get scared.

[@jenmurrayxo]

Thanks Edward, I had a blast watching this one! My pup is used to me freaking out watching movies lol! 😆👍

[@purplegorilla9592]

This film had such little budget that the tables you see Sarah and others sitting at in the club scene, were picked up by Cameron the day before at a local yard sale.

[@vwlssnvwls3262]

My favorite line in this movie is when Kyle Reese says to Sarah "It can't be bargained with, or reasoned with. It does not feel pitty, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, EVER... until you are dead!" I also often find myself saying "what the hell!" like the garbage truck driver when Arnold first shows up, and "did you just see a real bright light" like the homeless man when Kyle shows up. :D
