Nope, RIP 17 cops (including police Lieutenant Edward traxler) West Island police station casualties: 17 police officers: killed (no mercy) 9 to 11 police officers: gravely injured (most likely to the point of hospitalization) The fate of the other 2 to 4 police officers: unknown You put anyone stupid enough especially police officers (regardless of how many in question) between a terminator and yourself, you WILL get dead people especially dead cops every.

I’ve always loved the way that Traxler just casually acknowledges the Tech Noir when Sarah mentions it. Makes you wonder how many times he’s stopped there, whether on or off duty.
Quite possibly my favorite scene in movie history. It's just perfection. The look of The Terminator as he roams through a world is not his own, he almost seems confused/disturbed by it. The look he gives is just awesome as he first enters the club. Then you got the echoed music and the timing of the whole scene, and the brief firefight that ensures between two outsiders from another time. I love how the Terminator instantly reverts to its killer instinct once fired upon. Love it so much.
I know it's been 10 years, but holy shit I've finally found someone who sees it exactly like how I do. Honestly The Terminator has inspired me to write and this particular scene inspired a character
Don't forget how he broke that dude's hand. Money, entry fees and bouncers probably don't exist in the Terminator's time anyways, so give him a break, haha.
I have loved this song since I was a kid. Before moving to the US, I was living in Azerbaijan, which is the Ex Soviet Union. I saw this movie in 1989 for the first time. The whole USSR was enjoying Terminator, Aliens, Comando, Rambo Cobra, etc. My first ever American movie I watched were Jaws. I love this movie as well. Now I am listening to all the songs from Terminator, Cobra and Comando very loud in my car. People look at me weirdly.
hey these people look weird at you are from new generation pussy's they don't know about the 80's that's listening and watching the wrong movies and the music, they don't know jack shit i was 5 when i watched Stallone,Schwarzenegger, Van Damme, Lundgren, Snipes, Jackie Chan i loved it, as kid i was 7 teacher was shocked !!!!!!! my teacher said how do you know predator that was 1987 ???? i was like i loved it, everyone watched harry potter i am only person hates harry potter everyone was surprised i hated harry potter until today i love rap music and new generation like expendables, john wick and everything else but not everything. until today i play 80's and watch the 80's action movies my style
"Listen and understand. That terminator is out there. It can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear, and it absolutely will not stop. Ever. Until you are dead." - Kyle Reese
Or when he walks into the police department with those big ass Gargoyles sunglasses. "I'm a friend of Sarah conner can I see her please? I'll be back"(when told no)
Arnold is the ONLY Terminator! Michael Biehn is the ONLY Kyle Reese Linda Hamilton is the ONLY Sarah Conner Eddie Furlong is the ONLY John Conner The first two films are all we needed and all we’ll ever need. For me the series ends with T2.

Rocky Well back then at least society wasn't afraid that if we watched an 18 that we would go on a killing spree or something like it is now lol. I'm glad i got to watch 15s and 18s when i was a kid otherwise my childhood would of sucked.
This song has haunted me for decades. And yeah, it is cuz of that scene. She just misses getting spotted, she and Kyle lock eyes, the singer’s voice trails off in echo, everyone moving in slow motion. Death and Destiny dancing on a knife’s edge. It’s a perfect scene. And there will only ever be two perfect films for me...
@@disconnected22Arguably the two best sci-fi films ever made: both dealt with the theme explored in the first proper science fiction story - Mary Shelley's Frankenstein - fear of the man-made man. "More human than human" as the man said. 🙄
+George Bean Correct but it was a Thursday is 1983 which was likely what they were referring to since it was principally filmed in 1983 and RELEASED in 1984.
This scene, man. Something about the choice of music, the sinister, undaunted approach of the Terminator as everyone keeps dancing, the way Kyle Reese pulls out that shotgun in slow motion, the way the killing machine just slowly gets back to its feet to demonstrate that no amount of bullets will do more than briefly inconvenience it. It's one of the first scenes in any movie that I saw as a kid that defined to me what a truly well-paced action scene is. I've come back to the movie dozens of times, sometimes just to see this one brief part of it again. What better way could the movie have gone about showing the odds that our heroes are up against? This movie and its sequel are both, to my mind, amongst the greatest action films ever produced, but if forced to choose one over the other I would have to side with the former. If you haven't seen the movie before, you might seriously wonder how on Earth the killing machine is going to be stopped by the lead duo, on the run and armed with little more than homemade pipe bombs and whatever else they can scrounge. The second film becomes Terminator versus Terminator, which is a hell of a ride in its own right but doesn't create the same sense of desperation IMO. Hell, I might go watch it again right now.
This scene in the movie is immortal. One of the great moments in cinema history where soundtrack and on-screen were combined perfectly! The burning gallows scene in Tombstone is another great one!
I always wondered what on earth Kyle Reese thought of this brilliant 80's song lol I mean there he is sitting at the bar (all sad and serious and out of time, superb heartbreaking work by Michel Biehn) surrounded by 80's perms and glorious shoulder pad madness. Given that this is probably the first time he's ever heard music too (well...unless you count that scene in the dreadful Terminator Salvation!) he must surely be thinking: "what the fuck is that?" lol I also think it's quite nice and realistic for John Connor's "paradox" parents to actually meet very simply in a nightclub...let's face it most of our parents possibly have. So I think people get a kick nostalgically out of this scene as they can relate to it a bit.
What was so memorable about the first terminator movie was the relentless pace. It never stopped and had your heart pounding. It was a true survival horror and made you think about being chased by an unstoppable force. So i think realistically Kyle is not really thinking about the music. Remember he's at the bar but looking at Sarah in the mirror in front of him. He's waiting until he locks on the terminator. His sole mission is to protect her and he's got seconds to do that. One false move and she's dead. Though the romantic in me likes to think that the lyrics in this songs reflect Kyle being affected by Sarah's presence. He's loved her for years through a fantasy and a picture. Now he's in the same space as her, and they also lock eyes through the mirror as this song is playing BUT Sarah thinks he's a stalker/murderer at this point LOL
"they also lock eyes through the mirror" I've watched this movie 50 times or so and never realized that he looked through a MIRROR. WTF Now the next scene makes sense, that he have to turn around to shoot
Reese was focused on the mission and had his eyes on the prize the whole time. There’s no way techcom would have chosen him for the mission if he was easily distracted. Kyle Reese was a Human T800. Not stopping until his objective was met.
I’m so glad they referenced this song in the Terminator game that came out last year. A lot of references in that game that’ll get a kick out of true fans of the series
Bravo Lazz But, you know, it's be fitting if they used that song since it is a torture that's mentally and physically awful. And that's the definition of the third degree.
This song is very good, BUT; when the chorus and synth kick in, it is amazing! I have loved this song since the movie came out.. I jam to this in my car at night :)
I love the choice of this song in the Tech-Noir club in the movie. It's a really catchy song. Given my desire to be a writer, I wrote a script, and I have one particular scene paying obvious homage to this scene where my hero walks into a party-club to find the villain, and this song is being played over in the club, and I imagine the scene paying homage with some slo-mo, etc.
This song is all too fitting for the movie, but out of context it just sounds delightfully cheesy. This movie is oh so 80s it almost hurts. I find it kinda funny how this can be likened to Enter the Dragon (oh so 70s) in that way.
Tech noir...one of the best scenes in movie history period. The tension, the slow fade out of this song to the ominous music that started playing, the acting in that scene by arnold, michael and linda all made that scene epic. I still get goosebumps every time I see that scene. The first 2 terminators were Cameron's masterpieces. (Suck it avatar fans)
легендарная эпоха была.лучший фильм и музыка.больше такого не будет. я в 1992 году только родился. в 1999 наверное только узнал о фильме терминатор. и сейчас его хочется смотреть
Fun fact: during production, people thought that the set used for the Tech Noir nightclub was real and they wanted to go inside and even offered to pay the production crew. However, they had to refuse them entry even though they desperately needed the money

2:10 - That scene where the T-800 walks past Sarah as she conveniently ducks to pick up her drink was pure genius.

Remember he's at the bar but looking at Sarah in the mirror in front of him. He's waiting until he locks on the terminator. His sole mission is to protect her and he's got seconds to do that. One false move and she's dead. Though the romantic in me likes to think that the lyrics in this songs reflect Kyle being affected by Sarah's presence. He's loved her for years through a fantasy and a picture. Now he's in the same space as her, and they also lock eyes through the mirror as this song is playing BUT Sarah thinks he's a stalker/murderer at this point LOL
"they also lock eyes through the mirror"
I've watched this movie 50 times or so and never realized that he looked through a MIRROR. WTF
Now the next scene makes sense, that he have to turn around to shoot
Reese was focused on the mission and had his eyes on the prize the whole time. There’s no way techcom would have chosen him for the mission if he was easily distracted. Kyle Reese was a Human T800. Not stopping until his objective was met.
Nostalgia hitting big time listening to this great song
I’m so glad they referenced this song in the Terminator game that came out last year. A lot of references in that game that’ll get a kick out of true fans of the series
Terminator one is amazing this song is fire I can picture the entire scene in my head
This scene is so epic and this is the perfect song for it.
“You're in a public place, so you'll be safe.”
Safe, you say…
“You're in a public place, so you'll be safe.”
Terminator: Yäs
they should have used this song in terminator 5. during the end credits.
yeah I can totally understand that - a sort of 'An American Werewolf in London' sudden cut to the credits and the song playing after something dark
It should have been the song that Sarah Conner played on her radio she kept throughout the movie
Bryan Barnes man that would of been awesome!
You mean that semi comedy crap? Nah...
Bravo Lazz But, you know, it's be fitting if they used that song since it is a torture that's mentally and physically awful.
And that's the definition of the third degree.
Terminator series so cool n nostalgic😊
I’ll be back… to listen to this amazing song again.
This song is very good, BUT; when the chorus and synth kick in, it is amazing! I have loved this song since the movie came out.. I jam to this in my car at night :)
Yeah, the chorus makes it. Not mention the perfect placement in the movie.
I like all of them. But I always cry on T2 at the lava scene:-(
+Pierpont Geer it was drawn out. took ages quicker death would be less sad
+Pierpont Geer I know now why you cry, but it is something I can never do.
Pierpont Geer that was hard on all of us.
Molten steel
I like 1 and 2 the best salvation was at beat ok but 3 and genesis were horrible to me
The scene where Arnold is walking past Sarah in slowmotion always giving me the goosebumps
That was the most intense scene a stupid accident end up saving her life from the terminator
Dude. This song and this singer kicks ass! The bass player is wailing on that bass guitar of his. Impressive energy from this entire band.
2:12 is where the music fades to an echo as the Terminator barely missed Sarah when she drops the bottle.

I love the choice of this song in the Tech-Noir club in the movie. It's a really catchy song.
Given my desire to be a writer, I wrote a script, and I have one particular scene paying obvious homage to this scene where my hero walks into a party-club to find the villain, and this song is being played over in the club, and I imagine the scene paying homage with some slo-mo, etc.
This song is all too fitting for the movie, but out of context it just sounds delightfully cheesy. This movie is oh so 80s it almost hurts.
I find it kinda funny how this can be likened to Enter the Dragon (oh so 70s) in that way.
Make sure it is a slowed down film slo-mo and not like photo edited
This is one of my favorite 80's songs no doubt
Tech noir...one of the best scenes in movie history period. The tension, the slow fade out of this song to the ominous music that started playing, the acting in that scene by arnold, michael and linda all made that scene epic. I still get goosebumps every time I see that scene. The first 2 terminators were Cameron's masterpieces. (Suck it avatar fans)
There will never be an era better that the 80s, the music and the movies are the best proof
Most underrated classic ever!!!!!
2022 and this track is still fire
It’s got me burnin’
And in 2023 too
@@user-sobak2006 this song will never die!
This scene was cinematic brilliance. Epic fight, epic music. Nostalgia overspill!!!
love this song
Great energy and a true masterpiece of 80's music. 😘❤️
2:09 the bottle scene... one of the best moments in cinema history...
легендарная эпоха была.лучший фильм и музыка.больше такого не будет. я в 1992 году только родился. в 1999 наверное только узнал о фильме терминатор. и сейчас его хочется смотреть
Classic song in a classic film scene!
This song always reminds me of I'm So Excited by The Pointer Sisters. During that Tech Noir bit in the film, i sometimes sing that song instead.
Why don't movies made today burn in third degree anymore?
@David Hacking-Bonilla I can verify that, being a kid from the 2000's who loves 50's Jazz
Movie aside, this song is great on its own. Did the studio try to push it as a single? I think it would have charted.
Another 80s masterpiece
Oh hell yah! This song kicks ass!
Loved hearing this in the Tech Noir secret in the infiltrator mode in Terminator Resistance
2021 this song is still top class 😎
2024*
Fun fact: during production, people thought that the set used for the Tech Noir nightclub was real and they wanted to go inside and even offered to pay the production crew. However, they had to refuse them entry even though they desperately needed the money
Love this song. Love how everything goes in slow motion when the terminator walks In the bar 😁
Saudades dos anos 80
Meu Deus chega até doer
Foi muito bom demais
Whenever anyone mentions The Termintor I only ever think of the first one, can't fault it and I love the soundtrack so much! :D
That's why I'm retro-'80s // My mind operates like time machine // I don't use mobile technology, gadgetry b/c it's dehumanizing, unnatural
When he turns in her direction and she bends down to pick up something and he juuuust misses her.... Chills man chills
One of the best money shots ever created.
This song is so damn catchy and fun to listen. Too bad it stopped during the fight between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Michael bhien
I don't think the scene would've had the same intensity if this was playing along during the gunfight between Reese and the Terminator...
I thought the song, "Photoplay," was the best.
It was about as perfect of a transition as you'll ever see in a movie. Going to have to disagree
When I first heard it on VHS I though it was the Pointer Sisters I'm So Excited
You’ve got me, Bernie.
How does this have almost 1.5 million views and only 11k upvotes. Come on people!
So insanely suited song in that part of movie...
This song should have won a music award.
