This means of course, terminator 2 has to be reacted to soon.
not necessarily. she may already have detailed files
@@dumbcat Makes her a more efficient movie reactor. :)
Her reaction to T2 is already up on her Patreon!
Hope she stops at T2 though
@@GeorgeTropicana tbf I like the feeling of anxiety and anguish in Terminator 3. They know what will happen, and it will happen in that same day. That's terrifying
I love that Kyle wonders what Sarah was thinking of in the picture, turns out she was thinking of him.
Absolutely love the first Terminator. The second movie has bigger budget and more action, but I like the more grounded, down to earth, horror and tech-noir style of the first movie. And as someone who wants to make movies, I feel a stronger connection to this one. It's almost something that a competent crew of amature filmmakers could make (I would never even dream of ever touching a project as big as T2 tho). They made the first one basically in guerrilla style, with little to no permits, and always being ready to run before the cops shut down the filming.
You are my people
I like it more too
I actually wrote half of a parody screen play of the first Terminator. It took 45 hours, and its only halfway finished
Yep, The Terminator is my favorite of the series (which really should be just the first two films, but that's another topic). T2 is very good, but the more campy nature of it is a big downgrade from the horror established in Terminator.
Right there with you.
At 18:40 is the best line I've heard from reactors!! "Ok, let's make John!!" Literally laughed out loud!!
I know, right? Addy cames with some goldies.
I came to say that. Like Reese did. He he.
I know . . . too funny!
The Terminator is often regarded as the only film in which the sex scene was, truly, ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to the plot.
Hey Addie! The Terminator is a classic, great choice! I don't think Michael Biehn gets enough credit for this performance. He essentially has to sell the entire concept of the film to the audience. He brings this amazing energy to his delivery, he totally nailed it! Great reaction, looking forward to T2!
Michael Biehn is the fucking man.
Biehn said the stunt where his double lands naked in the alley was the best stunt he ever saw. The dude threw himself naked off a platform 6 feet in the air and just slammed down onto the concrete. Insane.
He played Johnny Ringo in Tombstone as well.
Great call - it's a very underrated performance, and the movie doesn't work without it.
Spiderman no way home< really?
Reese said he always wondered what she was thinking about in that photo... a photo he fell in love with. And as it turns out, she was thinking about her love for him at that moment.
Why the explanation? We all saw the movie, we know. Congrats on having average skills of observation.
Exactly.
@@BrocksOnix956only someone feeling dumb for not catching something makes a ridiculous and purile comment like yours. Congrats 9n having below average functioning skills.
Isn't it amazing that old cinema is far more appealing than what we have now?
how far the mighty have fallen
Gotta remember you're comparing the best of the best from that time to the complete offerings out now.
Also, there's a ton of incredible recent films. The MCU as a whole is a mind-boggling achievement, and then there's all of Nolan's work, The Batman, LOTR, a million smaller films I don't know of or can't think of at the moment, etc., etc. etc.
Nostalgia is easy to slip into, but it often doesn't withstand scrutiny, especially as it's basically just a emotional longing for childhood.
The writers, producers, and directors working in modern day Hollywood are mostly talentless hacks.
Lol someone saying the MCU and quality films in the same sentence.😂
Agree, golden age for movies was definitely the 70s-90s era. There are amazing films from the 40s-60s period and from this century, but as sheer depth, originality, genre variety, genius directors, actors, writers, nothing beats those 3 decades.
@@michaelccozens LOTR was produced 2001-2003. In time it's closer to 1984 T1 than it is to 2023.
Perhaps my favorite bit is that, when Kyle is telling Sarah about the photo, he says he always wondered what she was thinking about in that moment. And it turns out, she was thinking about him. The love of Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese truly transcends time.
ABSOLUTELY must watch T-2. One of the few sequels that is as good as (if not better than) the original! As always, I love your reaction, Ms. Addie. Thanks for sharing it with us.
T-2 is the best of all Terminator saga with a lot of difference.
aliens would be the other one. see a pattern here with cameron's sequels which then are followed by a ton of crap movies (tbf though, the alien prequels are not that bad)
I like T2 but it hasn't a patch as on the original. Not even close.
You’re gonna LOVE the sequel, one of the best action movies of all time.
Loved this reaction Addie! Can't wait for your Terminator 2 reaction.
A couple of Fun Facts for you, Addie:
The first person that Arnold's character killed is Bill Paxton, he and Michael Biehn, the 2nd guy that time travels to 1984, costarred together in the movie "Aliens" as Colonial Space Marines Hicks and Hudson
Paxton also costars in Predator 2 with Danny Glover and in other Arnold Schwarzenegger movies such as Commando and True Lies, though his role in "Commando" was a cameo appearance
Also, the White police detective who tried to call Sarah's apartment and kept getting the answering machine is Lance Henrikson, who plays Bishop in "Aliens"
Damn you almost had me. The way to typed that you implied that Bill Paxton co-started in Commando he just had a 3 lines and less than 5sec of screen time.
@@brucechmiel7964 I hadn't intended to imply that Paxton's role was larger than it actually was, I have since corrected that mix up
@@karlsmith2570 well my replay was a bit of a joke. I deleted my original replay because I forgot he was even in that movie.
Also, Paxton starred in Tombstone opposite Biehn.
@@OUsniper1 Michael Biehn was in "Tombstone"???
I knew Bill Paxton played Morgan Earp, who did Michael Biehn play??
Fun Fact: the scene of the Terminator skeleton slowly chasing someone through the factory was the nightmare that started the idea of the movie.
The time loop also includes the first terminator being the father of Skynet. Reese mentioned that Skynet was developed by Cyberdyne, and when Sarah was being transported to the hospital, the camera pans to the establishment's name, which is Cyberdyne (and the guys working there were also talking about keeping what they found on the scene). :D
One only wonders why John didn't tell Reese to make sure that any and all evidence of The Terminator in 1984 was destroyed as soon as him and Sarah killed it. I guess so James Cameron could leave the door open for the sequel. Cause originally the ending of the first movie had Reese and Sarah destroy Cyberdyne.
@@thatperformer3879 There are many "they should have" moments in movies/stories, but if those moments were resolved easily (even let's say it can be resolved easily with common sense), then there wouldn't be a lot of movies, sequels and stories to be told. A lot of these media shouldn't/wouldn't exist.
@@thatperformer3879 Because Sarah didn't know that would happen, so neither did John, at least in that timeline.
Time travel gets real weird, real fast.
The CPU of the original Terminator being used to design Skynet's schematics is hogwash. Can't get how Cameron screwed up there. Rushed & sadly became about making money, not storytelling.
@@GGGritzerThat's the bit of hand-wavy science that's got your goat? Not literally any of the rest of it? And calling one of the consensus greatest sequels of all time a cash grab seems like you're just being contrarian to make yourself seem like you've got interesting ideas.
17:45 I’d like to pinpoint something that I really noticed just a few days ago: the terminator needs to hear a voice to mimick it, that means it went to the mom’s house and killed her before calling Sarah. That’s terrifying…
The film "The Terminator" was produced with a low budget as a summertime movie intended to attract teenage moviegoers. No one expected it to become a "favorite" with multiple sequels.
I'm not sure I'd exactly call it "low" budget. Adjusted for inflation, it's budget was about $16.5 million, which, sure, is a lot lower than the average MCU movie. But it's also a lot higher than the budget for critically successful movies like _Primer_ (2004), which was around $10,000 (adjusted for inflation).
@@jasonschuler2256 I have never heard of the film Primer".
@@barryfletcher7136 Oh, It's a good one to check out! It's a very clever sci-fi time travel movie.
@@NiclasLoof That’s why I adjusted them for inflation…
Sarah said "They don't make things like that yet." Reeses reply "Not yet. Not for about 40 years." The terminator came out in 1984. Its 2024 so we should be seeing Terminators now. LOL
The love scene always makes me cry. The amazing soundtrack... knowing what's gonna happen. And the last words that Sarah records to John near the end of the film: "In a few hours we spent together we loved a lifetime's worth".
It always great to watch someone enjoying movies you love. Great reaction.
You're right with the tear thing. James Cameron said that Terminator pschology is summed up in the eye-removal scene: he cuts out his own eye, and then checks in the mirror to see if his hair is okay.
Thank you for your reaction and insightful comments. James Cameron accomplished a lot with a limited budget and the available effects technology. His writing and casting were also effective. I eagerly await your reaction to T2. Arnold's terminator was on the American Film Institute's list of the 50 greatest movie villains for this performance.
They managed a lot with stop motion animation for the metal Terminator.
You might like Starman with Jeff Bridges and Karen Allen. 1984 as well. Good year for movies and strong female characters.
Also, it's an amazing example of the director's versatility. There are not many directors who can do iconic slasher movies, horror, action, comedy and then do a sci-fi love story that can in turns terrify, make you laugh and then reduce you to floods of tears, but somehow John Carpenter does it
My favourite part, and a sad fact, it´s when Kyle said that he always wondered what Sarah was thinking at that moment of the picture. And she was thinking of Kyle during that tape record. Lovers across time....
Omg, so excited for you to get into this franchise. If only you’d post daily I would watch anything with you reacting, you’re too goofy n it’s adorable
Terminator is so surprising. You could not expect what kind of movie it is. When I first saw it, I got hooked so bad.
The 'Club Noir' nightclub was so real, random people tried to come in to party off the street.
It's kind of a Paradox about Time Travel. Like "How would things had turned out if you went back and killed Hitler as a Baby".
And the interesting bit that Kyle never knew: when the picture that he fell in love with was taken, and he wondered what she was thinking about, she was thinking about him. 💔
T2 is just as good if not better, and it is the perfect ending to the Terminator saga. In other words, watch T2 but don't waste time on any of the following cash grabs that defame the Terminator name. Just like Alien/Aliens, there are only two movies in this series.
T2 is much better than first, is the best of all Terminator saga with a lot of difference..
I kinda do have a soft spot for T3, the over-arching plot of it that is, if you get what I mean, but yeah tbh everything after T2 is blehhhh
@@rvelezbarreda WRONG!!! Only people who watched T2 first when they were kids make this ridiculous claim. 🙄
"Alright, let's make John." 😆😆
I always wondered if Sarah's co-worker ever felt bad about that "You're dead, Honey!", crack?
You recognized that Reese is John's father sooner than anybody else I've ever seen.
"A weird time loop". Yes.
The Terminator franchise relies on the causal loop proposition, a paradox in which something (John) has no origin. Sending Reese back relies on Reese meeting Sarah, which again relies on sending Reese back.
Notice that by some strange fate Sarah is betrayed by machines twice. First by the answering machine when she calls home to say she's at the club, and later when Dr. Silberman is leaving the police station his beeper goes on just as Arnold enters. I love that little detail!
What's impressive about James Cameron is the fact that he never got into film school
Working for Roger Corman in the 70s was better than any film school.
Film schools study James Cameron.
And what’s not impressive is his recent penchant for criticizing and devaluing other director’s films that outdo a film of his in one way or another.
@@JCG52577Like who? Is this another "nerd mad at Scorcese because he rightly points out Marvel movies are formulaic schlock" situation?
Terminator 2 imo is one of the best Emotional Sci-Fi movies of all time. There's a funny meme that says that "Most women cry at Titanic, most Men cry at Terminator 2"
he's not in the car anymore. is he the car now?
lol i don't know exactly why, but that line by Addie cracked me up.
Addie, after you watch the second movie, do you do reactions to tv shows? there is a great tv show set after the second movie, called the Sarah Connor Chronicles, to me, it's one of the greatest tv shows to ever exist. so if you do videos for each episode, i will watch every video you do.
Agreed on how great the Sarah Connor Chronicles is!
Glad I'm not the only one who saw and loved that show. (Circe Lannister was great and who knew that chick from Garbage could act so well?)
I consider the Terminator : Resistance videogame as the only worthy sequel to Terminator 2. IMO it's the true T3.
@@Deathbird_Mitch Any bet that Shirley Manson can't do something is a bet lost. And Summer Glau is also incredible in the series. Such a shame it didn't get a longer run.
Omg I loooooooove tscv
The phrase you're looking for Addie, is "predestination paradox".
Fun fact: the guy who gives the Terminator his clothes was Brian Thompson, who would go on to play a Terminator-esque character on "The X-Files".
Did you know that they actually poured a light acid on Arnold for the scene where he jumps on the car and punches through the windshield to create the effect? Cool stuff back in the '80s.
Another recurring, iconic quote is, "Come with me if you want to live."
Love how the opener starts in “2029 AD.” Good lord, we aren’t that far away now…
Great reaction! When you watch the sequel, I'd recommend the theatrical cut. IMO, it's a little better than the director's cut. 😁
No theatrical version of the film is Camerons directors cut
@@chrisbergsten1429 No theatrical version of the film is Camerons directors cut
🌟 "Is he the car".🌟 That's the next movie 😂
"And OF COURSE, he is going to be fine! How? Do you? DEFEAT him?" - Perfect summary for the movie right there!
So cool that you have seen this... Just one more terminator film!
but what about the othe--
JUST. ONE. MORE!
Well, now you have to watch T2 as well because they come as a pack of 2 always. :D Glad you liked it. The story of the first 2 movies is just great, mixed with great suspense and action. Oh, and as a little side note. Watch the cinematic version of T2, not the longer one.
Perfect reaction to this classic sci fi movie
All kinds of people here from other movies - Michael Biehn and Bill Paxton (one of the 3 punks at the beginning) will be in Aliens, and Nick Rossovich (Sarah's roommate's boyfriend) played Slider in Top Gun.
I love The Terminator. It’s one of my go to “there’s nothing on” movies. I’ve long since lost count of how many times I’ve seen it.
After this, Judgement Day.
So, now you’re ready for the best Sci-Fi Action Sequel ever made!
Of course you mean 'Aliens'...😂
@@davidhoward6254, damn straight. Terminator only needed one film. Aliens is fine with two, only two.
Heck yeah Terminator 2!
@@aarongaming2878, entertaining. Not a patch on the first........
Terminator 1 and 2 and some of my favorite James Cameron movies along with the abyss
for us GenX people these films are like old friends and they are still great to watch even after all this time and many many viewing;s... :)
Sarah Connor was very lucky to have survived against everything. Have you seen An American Werewolf In London? It was an 80's horror/comedy classic. Maybe sometime you could do a reaction video of it? I'm sure you would love it.
Check out TERMINATOR 2, one of the best Sci-fi Action movies ever made!
Before Schwarzenegger was cast as the titular character, OJ Simpson was considered to play The Terminator, but James Cameron changed his mind saying, "He's too much of a nice guy to play the role of a ruthless killer."😳🤦
Mel Gibson, Sylvester Stallone, Lance Henriksen, and Tom Selleck were considered for the role.
Sting, Treat Williams, Christopher Reeve, Scott Glenn, Michael O'Keefe, Tommy Lee Jones, Matt Dillon, and Bruce Springsteen were considered for Kyle Reese.
Lea Thompson, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Jessica Harper, Melissa Sue Anderson, Rosanna Arquette, and Lisa Langolis were considered for Sarah Connor.
James Cameron's real message in The Terminator is a warning. In that humanitys obsessions with technology could ultimately be our undoing. Is A.I. already self aware?
When I saw The Terminator as a kid I felt so terrified. Especially the glimpses into one possible horrific future. T2 was more action than horror but amazing.
13:28 -- You spotted the goof we almost always forget about, with Schwartzenegger's tear or sweat drop.
The Terminator launched the trend of Gargoyle and similar sunglasses, and that wrap-around sport style is still popular today. Of all the things about a movie like this, its one of the odder bits of cultural trivia.
"I've Heard This Qoute"
This movie is where that qoute originally came from
Reece said he'd always wondered what Sarah was thinking about in that photo, at the end we see she was thinking about him.
The second movie is a masterpiece. Perhaps some people do like the first one more because reasons. But T2 is one of the best movies in history hands down.
"Ok let's make John" The best quote ever!
9:10 that cop that is knocked out is played by Brad Fiedel the guy who did the soundtrack for this movie. He didn't want to be killed in the movie because he knew his mom would see the movie. He did want her to see him killed.
It really is weird seeing someone watch this and not know before that the Terminator is a cyborg, but it makes it so great.
Terminator 2 is a MUST. Forget everything else in the franchise.
Nice reaction, Addie. If you enjoyed The Terminator, you'll love Terminator 2: Judgment Day. BTW, when the Terminator jumped through the fire, his eyebrows burned off. If you want more James Cameron movies, then I would recommend *Aliens (Special Edition), The Abyss, True Lies, Titanic, & Avatar (2009).
*But watch Alien (1979) first.
Second on The Abyss. I don't think I've seen anyone react to Abyss.
First Terminator's a classic. It really was a blast 'cause, remember, this is 1984, people weren't used to time travel (we're one year before Back To The Future) or event human looking robots so, at the time, the story was considered very imaginative.
This is one of James Cameron's very first movies, same for Arnold (Before that, all he had done were the two Conan movies) and this one made him a star
"This is 1984, people weren't used to time travel (we're one year before Back To The Future) or event human looking robots"
What the heck are you on about? _The Time Machine,_ 1960, _La Jetée,_ 1962, _Planet of The Apes,_ 1968, _Escape from the Planet of the Apes,_ 1971, _Time after Time,_ 1979, _Somewhere in Time,_ 1980, _Time Bandits, 1981_ . . .
As far as "realistic androids" go-hello! _Metropolis,_ 1927, _THX 1138,_ 1972, _Westworld_, 1973, _The Stepford Wives,_ 1975, _Blade Runner,_ 1982 . . .
It’s so sad/beautiful because Reese said he always used to wonder what she was thinking about the moment that picture was taken and it turned out she was thinking about him 😭
"We got 30 cops in this building"
I always laugh at that line. This, T2 and the Conan movies were my childhood in a nutshell. Reese said "I always wondered what you were thinking in that picture" turns out she was thinking about him.
I was in the 4th or 5th grade when this came out. Fell in love with it instantly. Seen it dozens of times, if not more. In an amazing turn of events, my film career started with a gig as a background extra working with the wife of Michael Biehn, who played Kyle Reese. Now, my wife and I are friends of the family. They live in Arizona too. As a matter of fact, they own a thrift store in Bisbee, and my wife and I went there today because they had everything 50% off for Labor Day. They're overseas at the moment, so we didn't get to hang out, but we see them from time to time. In another turn of events, I've also appeared in a film with Robert Patrick, who is in Terminator 2. I won't ruin it for you, since you haven't seen it yet. Can't wait til you do.
Funny that Reese fell in love with Sarah from the photo that was taken when she was thinking of him.
Even my father liked this movie. One of our family's earliest rentals for our newfangled VCR.
You have to remember it is a machine. SO unless you destroy enough of it to not function, then it will keep going. In the terminator lore the head and chest is reinforced. since the head holds the processor and the chest area holds the power cells.
If you are going to do the first one then you have to commit to watching the second.
Small tip in the Terminator lore : Dogs can detect Terminators, that's why the dog was losing its mind.
What’s sad is that while talking about the photo, Reese said Sarah looked sad in the picture and he always wondered what she was thinking about. She was thinking about him.
"All right, let's make John"
How are you not demonitized, talking dirty like that? lol
Favorite movie of all time. Amazing watching it for the first time as a kid.
Reese tells Sarah about a picture, but not which picture exactly. He only really says she was young in it and he used to wonder what she was thinking when the picture was taken. And she was thinking about him.
“Alright-let’s make John.”🤣
Movies in the 80s often were about a coming apocalypse, probably because of the year 2000 approaching.
2000 came and went.
No. Mostly Nuclear War hysteria. The news made Reagan look like some trigger happy cowboy for a long time.
Nope. It was because the Cold War with the USSR was at its high point and there was a real risk of both sides starting a nuclear apocalypse.
This movie ranked at #82 in the 100 scariest movie moments on Bravo
"Alright, let's make John!" - James Cameron on set while directing the love scene. 😄 (Don't quote him on that. ^^)
Thumbs up for keeping on top of the plot in this movie better than most react-tubers. Good job, Addie.
Great reaction, as usual!
I was a bit too young to see The Terminator when it came out. A few years later I turned on the TV and there was a movie on with a robot chasing a man and a woman through a factory. I watched the end of it and thought it was pretty cool, but had no idea at the time what movie it was! I figured it out by describing it to a friend the next day. When I finally saw the whole movie I thought it was one of the best movies I’d ever seen! I still think that, although there are other contenders I’ve seen since then.
'Terminator 2: Judgement Day' actually exceeded the original 'Terminator'... Arnold returns as the Terminator, Linda Hamilton as Sarah Connor... Edward Furlong played a young John Conner... and Robert Patrick is the new T-1000.
'Terminator 3: Rise of the machines' was done without director James Cameron, who did the first 2 movies... Arnold returned as the Terminator again... Nick Stahl played an adult John Connor... Claire Danes played Katherine Brewster, a vet who knew John Connor from school... and Kristanna Loken played the femme T-X.
'Terminator: Salvation' (Part 4) is the last of this timeline w/ John Connor, taking place 15 years after 'Terminator 3' - Arnold is NOT in it... In the middle of the war against Skynet, Christian Bale played John Connor is a soldier rallying the human race against the machines... Dallas Bryce Howard as Katherine Brewster... (late actor) Anton Yelchin played a teenage Kyle Reese... and Sam Worthington ('Avatar') played Marcus, a death row convict who wakes up to find the world destroyed and he seems to be more than human.
The other 'Terminator' movies have a different timeline and did not live up to the franchise, even w/ Arnold back as the Terminator.
Fun Facts Time: According to legend, when they were shooting the scenes for the nightclub, people started showing up, thinking it was a real nightclub that had just opened
"let's make John"
That's gonna be what I call it from this day forward 😏
hi Addie, nice reaction. you will like T2, it's very good too.
Terminator is my favorite love story in fiction personally. It’s got romance and a killer robot from the future!
This film was released after the summer blockbuster season, because nobody was sure how it would do.
It became a super hit on a really low budget, and I found it a really fun surprise, when I saw it in the theater in 1984.
The second film, T2, is worth seeing.
Skip the rest.
Imagine you are 7 years old and it's 1984 and you just watched the terminator. That was my experience and it left a very profound impression on me, I literally aged 10 years by the end of the movie lol.
I’m excited for you to see part 2. It’s one of the best action movies of all time. The rest of the movies are skippable unless you just need more Arnold.
"Alright! Let's make John..." - Addie 9/5/22
9:19. He is Franco Columbu (R.I.P.) the best friend of Arnold and your best workout partner.
"Is he one with the car now?" No, that's the next movie. 😂
I prefer this to the sequel. In fact, I think that The Terminator is an excellent one off movie that didn't need any sequels. It told the story it wanted to tell.
I like that you didn't laugh at the stop motion of the skeleton at the end. A lot of other channels do, and I get it, because it does look super janky compared to effects today lol. But for some reason I liked that you didn't point it out, even. (Though, maybe you did in your full version lol)
Looking forward to you doing T2 in the future. I'd also love T3, but it seems a lot of react channels stop after 2 because most comments say that T3 isn't good. Idk, I enjoyed all of the first 3 a lot. And sometimes it's just fun to see someone react to a bad movie, too haha. But while it's not as good as T2 or T1, I did enjoy it more than I disliked it.
"Surely she's gotten out of here by this point!" No, she hasn't . . . and don't call me Shirley
This is one of my favorite sci-fi / time travel movies. Well thought out, and good performances. Ahhnold is convincing as a superhuman cyborg, and Michael Biehn is above average as Reese. Definitely recommend Terminator 2.
