Michael Biehn remembers The Terminator

[@Acekorv]

Michael Biehn is one of those guys that should’ve made it bigger. He was so cool in the 80s! Love this guy!

My favorite actor Michael biehn is amazing. One cool guy

[@burtonkephart6239]

Kris B ok didn’t know that either! He was also in aliens a few years later but after that he disappeared mostly

[@PostPatriot]

A quick IMDB looks like he has always been active up to current. He was doing great movies like The Rock and not so great movies like Navy SEALS in the 90s and still working. You won't see him on TMZ, his career has brought him to the point of being called Iconic. Thats about the highest honor one can ask for. He will be an old man still being called Kyle Reese.

Dark fate was so underwhelming. The baddie was good, the acting was ok, but there was just no... moment. I’ll say is about as good as T3 - the baddies in DF was better, but the amazing scenes of the ‘first moments’ of skynet , and that the nuclear war can’t be avoided in T3 were great.

Michael Biehn’s performance was so natural and entertaining that I don’t think other actor could’ve pulled off. He is extremely underrated. Terminator 1 is the best in the series. Ahead of its time and with practical effects that looked believable and made you appreciate what they had to work with back in 1984.

[@Kayayeem]

There are far too many comments about him ageing badly. Yes he looks different now but he’s a recovering alcoholic and he’s always been very open and honest about that in various interviews. I’m sure if he wanted to look his best it wouldn’t take a whole lot of effort, he’s still a very good looking man.

Yeah. You really saw it in the deleted scenes where he flips out at a park.

I saw Genisys in the theater, and I haven't wanted to watch it again since. I haven't even pirated that shit.

I was thinking the exact same thing.. about how Biehn does such a good job of looking totally carnal and strung out. All thin and muscular, in bum clothing, intense but dissociated look in his eye, like when he's following Sarah at the beginning of the movie.

[@dostagirl9551]

Omg...I had such a HUGE crush on him as Kyle Reese when I was a kid. And I find it so sweet that he describes what I take as an example of chivalrous courtly love towards Hamilton during the filming. Makes watching it even more bittersweet.

When he yelled in the camera...wow. That was such a great moment in that movie.

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

Its really mindboggling today to hear that a great movie, and true scifi classic like The Terminator wasn't even in the top 20 of 1984!

This guy should've been one of the biggest stars in Hollywood, such a shame his career never took off like it could've

[@scottknode898]

Al Stone he had problems with directors as was difficult to work with and was an alcoholic for years which didn’t help his career. He was egotistical

[@DIOSpeedDemon]

He should be given an Oscar for his Realism and Pure Survival instincts. This guy caught your attention from the first scene until well... right now. Triple AAA Actor and he deserves at least 3 Oscars. Respect. RH DSD

[@alessiocataldi2434]

Watching him now and re-watchin TheTerminator really makes me sad of all the time passed away and the old age he reached 😭😭

[@245-TRIOXIN]

The original Terminator movie will always be my favourite out of all of them. I get that the mainstream probably enjoy T2 the most, but to me the original is the perfect Terminator movie. Its a dark, gritty, sci-fi/horror, thriller. Whereas i think T2 is more of a fun, over-the-top action blockbuster, buddy-buddy movie. The Dyson subplot breaks the building tension and pacing in T2, but the original keeps the pacing and tension building because its 100 percent focused on the protagonists desperately trying to stay one step ahead of the Terminator all the way through the movie, and the protagonists are always out matched. But the protagonists in T2 aren't outmatched because they have a Terminator always there protecting them.

[@Kageofyoutube]

Same bro i love T1 the most

[@245-TRIOXIN]

Yeah its a cracking film, mate. I was only 14 years old when it came out. God knows how many times I've watched it over the years. Never gets old. Funny how things have changed. Dark Fate is a movie i wouldn't even bother watching. I dont understand the reasoning behind killing off John Connor and replacing him with the Dani Ramos character. Thats just crazy. Hollywood are putting some really dodgy movies out these days. I think politics are ruining movies.

[@Dirtyboxer1]

T1 remains one of my favorite movies. I had a copy on VHS and I wore that tape out!

[@laetitialogan2002]

It really was groundbreaking

[@245-TRIOXIN]

@@laetitialogan2002 Definitely. I love that film. To be honest i prefer 80's movies in general compared to modern movies. Its not just a nostalgia thing either, because there definitely have been a few recent movies that i thought were brilliant. 'Upgrade' for instance was a cracking good sci-fi movie. In general though i just seem to find myself enjoying 70's, and 80's sci-fi and horror movies more than the current Hollywood films that we get now.

[@scottward6974]

why did they never cast this man to play John Connor in the future is beyond me, perfect actor for this role.

[@IronMan-tk8uc]

He was already Connor's father! How in hell he was gonna play Connor himself?

[@nicholasjanke3476]

Cameroon considered having Biehn play the evil Terminator in T2 (uh...why the heck would Skynet build a cyborg that looks exactly like Kyle Reese???!!) while Arnold was then the hero terminator-role reversal. It would have been interesting but I think it would have been too out there-convoluted-for the audience.

[@paradigmlost7582]

Michael was my hero, when I first saw the T1.

[@JoboHotep]

Glad to hear some behind the scenes, the stunt (as described @2:05) where Kyle arrives in the present is *totally* crazy to me. I know a lot of people are saying, "what's the big deal, he just dropped onto concrete?", but a *much* smaller fall for me ended with a hip and femur shattered in 4 different locations and a lifetime reminder of what a mistake I'd made. Stunt performers are total badasses as far as I'm concerned, and don't usually get anywhere *near* the recognition they deserve.

[@mattmacd2009]

Got the part & then slayed it. T1 is still very watchable today, it's aged fantastically.

[@jimsmith9853]

It is sad to see so many of my childhood idols/heros get old. They were larger than life in my youth. All us 80's kids are experiencing a bittersweet time when we see our childhood cultural icons age and pass away/fade just like us. Now I know how my Grandparents felt when their "Times" and stars got old and passed away.

He's very underrated. I love this guy, Another great movie Navy Seals. Michael Biehn, Arnold, Charlie Sheen Sigourney Weaver and Carl Weathers made the 80's awesome. It may not have been in the top 20 but it's in my top 4 or 5.

MB seems like a really nice chap, good to see him, I remember seeing The Terminator on Moviedrome on BBC2 (introduced by Alex Cox) circa about 1990/91 for the first time, good memories.

[@leegsy]

I remember that! I was born in 1981 and the 1st time I saw The Terminator was 87/88 (I think). I remember that particular showing of the movie on BBC2 because I taped it and had it for years. I must have watched that tape at least 100 times :) Moviedrome was great. I was introduced to all sorts of cult classics by that. This is back when the Internet was not as widely used as today and there wasn't really any other way to see movies like The Terminator except when it was released on VHS and you got a loan of it from someone's older brother or sister or whatever.

Yelchin was an awesome younger version of Reese. Looked like him, sounded like him, and he was good in the role. It's just pretty much everything else that sucked. The costumes kinda kicked ass, but yeah, that story and Bale were just...bleh.

I think he is jealous.

[@thomasstudstrup7768]

That wasnt Camerons call. Both him and Biehn were furious that they killed off Hicks and Newt. They wanted to make a bodycast of Michael so they could make a lifelike corpse of him. He told them to go to hell.

[@douglaskalberg8899]

He earned more for the photo they used in that film than he did for his acting role in Aliens though, according to an interview he did.

Studio should’ve waited when Cameron and Scott became available so they could come up with a good concept involving the survivors of Aliens

I never considered it before, but you're right. It's either the love between a man and a woman (Terminator, The Abyss, True Lies, Titanic, Avatar) or the love between a parent and their child (Aliens, T2, True Lies sorta).
