      If Deadpool (as of Deadpool 2) were real we could crowdfund a good 'ol fashioned veto of Cameron, Scott, Kennedy, and all the others from "saving" their franchises into the ground. Considering Cameron also said that Testosterone is Toxic, #7 is not going to be another bomb. It will be filled with so much "muh Climate Change" propaganda, that Avatar 2 will seem almost reasonable. Almost.

      You know how dogs help detect the terminators in the future war?
      So skynet makes realistic looking, sounding, Terminator dogs, even smell like wet fur when it rains.
      Skynet in Terminator 8: Terminator Bud.
      You thought Sky Bud was the limit? Now see that golden retreiver in film in a way you never thought to see him, sneaking into human ranks and helping sneak more terminators admidst them by making them think the terminators are regular people by not barking at them. unfortanately skynet didnt plan on Terminator Bud being so true to his origins that he still is man's best friend and helps identify and fight the terminator threat.
      Then we can have Terminator 9, It's Pat(Terminator).

    No, actually. That was footage which was recorded for one of the several tie-in console games of the time. I remember there was an actual quote from whoever directed it (not sure if it was Mostow or a second unit person), who literally said that they were looking around themselves, realised they had the set, cameras and Arnold, then decided to film some comical tongue-in-cheek stuff PURELY for the game (where they knew that it would never matter). It was just an excuse to have fun with the assets they already had and wouldn't cost any extra to use.
    Because that same footage was bizarrely incldued on the DVD as 'deleted scenes', a lot of commentators, in the intervening years, came to the false conclusion that it was intended for the film.
    It never was, though. It was just the production crew having a giggle for a video game. It was never meant for the official movies.
    Sadly, the quotes aren't recoverable, because it was something circulated on the film's discussion forum, at the time. The T3 site, for obvious reasons, was deleted many years ago.

    The machines were horrible at designing terminators that were able to disguise themselves among humans. Reese even explains that earlier models were extremely simple to spot. The answer to 'the accent' is that Skynet hadn't perfected their terminators yet. In Terminator 2 we see clearly that the next model sent disguises himself much better, acts friendly, etc.

  • @thefilthyrhombus3856
    @thefilthyrhombus3856 Месяц назад +7

    My personal head canon (which ends at Terminator 2) is that the Austrian accent was a deliberate choice by Skynet as it calculated that having a thick noticeable foreign accent meant that people would be far less likely to try and engage in any prolonged conversation with the T-800. This was done to mask the fact that while it could appear human at a glance, the T-800 still lacked the computing power to accurately mimic genuine human speech patterns and physical manurisms, aside from recreating a voice that it had sampled but obviously couldn't recreate in person like we saw it do when John calls his foster parents.
    It's not until the T-1k that Skynet is able to produce a Terminator capable of at least nearly passing for human in the way it speaks and moves. I say nearly because upon rewatching T2, I realized that there is still something slightly off about the T-1k in the way it speaks. Really was such a great performance by Robert Patrick.

      T3 is definitely at its best as it slowly reveals that despite any further heroic efforts, the wheels of fate will not allow judgement day to be forestalled any further, and in giving a front seat to the start of the apocalypse. I do not think it got enough credit for that, because some of it's flaws are so glaring. The one that bothered me the most is that John Connor just acts kind of doped out the whole movie, like he never got over those puppy painkillers he took at the beginning. He's just a passenger. Still, you are right, the solidly mid movies of 20 years ago are mostly classics when you go straight from current era movies back to them. I showed my 16 year old Starship Troopers, which at the time we all considered a fun but cheesy and overly-simplistic action movie (No one had really thought much of the satire at the time, no matter how smart they were, which I think is because we had not had 9/11 and the 20 years of war in the middle east to properly contextualize it) and he thought it was one of the best movies ever.
      Then we watched Tombstone with him and he was literally moved to tears. If that doesn't say it all, I don't know what does.

The movie was meh, but yeah, there were some decent ideas and it's not just plain bad--I did like finding a way to one-up the T1000.

    There is a good trilogy of novels set after T2 that explain (among many other things) that the Arnold terminator was modelled after an Austrian counterterrorism operative, hence the accent. The books are by S. M. Stirling and named "T2: Infiltrator", "T2: Rising Storm", and "T2: The Future War". As a huge fan of T2, I found the books quite entertaining, especially their depiction of terminator AI.

    • @doc_sav
      @doc_sav Месяц назад +2

      I read a couple of those. They definitely had some very interesting and well thought out background and insights, and some cool moments. It was creepy that Skynet had machine armies and infiltrators lurking around prior to Judgement day, and I especially remember a cool part where a bunch of them assault a prepared fortification where John is in South America. Even though as I recall the machines had no strategy other than march toward the big guns, and the defenders were completely aware the attack was coming, it took everything they had to stop the T-1000 that came in at the end of the assault.
      As @Xenomorphine pointed out, they definitely had some serious weirdness too, and I recall some pacing issues, but all in all I feel like even if not much effort was put into the adaptation, they'd have made far better film sequels than what we got, and for far cheaper. The books are definitely worth a read for anyone who likes geeking out on the future war and the backstory of the franchise. I think I may even re-read the one or two I still have, if I can find them again.

    My head canon from way back - I figured that when Skynet designed the first T-800, it went through all of the scans of real people it had on hand, and some massive Austrian freak was the only human who once existed in its database with enough meat to effectively conceal the endoskeleton. So it just used whatever voice data it had for that person, saving time and avoiding the risk of accidentally creating some mismatch out of whole cloth that would tip off the pesky humans in some way that wasn't easily obvious to a computer (remember, we know they spotted the older ones easily, according to Reese). Besides, the Terminators in the future war initially weren't really meant to blend in with humans for an extended period of time like they do in T1/2. They were meant to be good enough to get into a base or close to a high value target and melt them.
    Once we enter the T2 and T3 timelines, Cyberdyne now has more of a hand (haha get it) in the design of Terminator prototypes, to varying extents.
    Well one of the first things they'd do when reverse engineering the T-800 is extrapolate the size of the endoskeleton based on the arm and whatever other info they had access to, so that they knew the parameters they needed to ultimately work within. Once they know that, they have to figure out what kind of human body could reasonably conceal it, so the bio division starts a project of scanning and cataloguing super yolked dudes for this purpose. They probably come to the same conclusion as Skynet, which is that the workable range includes maybe just a couple of physiques in the Arnold-esque range. Naturally, Skynet has access to at least some of this once it starts thinking about Terminator skin suits, and once again finds a nice chunk of the work done for it. This all pretty much works because Schwarzenegger in his prime is still revered not just for his work in the sport, but his lottery winning genetics. At the same time, he isn't a ~7 foot giant that would immediately draw intense attention either. He really does occupy a sweet spot of sorts that we can imagine only a few other people do.
    This does raise a troubling question, which is whether Cyberdyne had made the connection between the T-800 pieces they scavenged, and the LA police substation that got deleted by a single guy, complete with _video evidence_ in 1984. If they had, then they already had pretty much the whole physical template in hand from the beginning, including the voice. If they did, did they tell anyone? Did someone from Cyberdyne see Candy and think, hot dang! That guy looks just like the murder cyborg! Another gift from the shadowy future that we keep pushing forward for max profits! Tell the engineering pitch guy to practice the scary accent for the meeting, so the robot doesn't sound like it wants to marry its cousin. If this is the case, Cyberdyne is legitimately the most evil group of people to exist, and if they hadn't caused the collapse of civilization via Skynet, they'd certainly have done it some other way before too long. Remember, if we choose to consider T3 as part of the timeline, they did all of this even after Dyson and the Connors destroyed all of the artifacts and likely most of the research they had already done. It's starting to look like the founding of Cyberdyne is perhaps the past inflection point that everyone should be concerned with disrupting in the past. Honestly, this would have made more sense than the subsequent plots we got, and probably raises far more interesting questions. Is Judgement Day still inevitable without Cyberdyne? What consequences come from stopping it's foundation and killing or re-directing the key people driving the agenda? Is it right to murder someone for a crime they haven't committed yet? What do the future war leaders think of the ever escalating time travel war that now seems to only make the Skynet endgame worse? How much are they even aware of? Of course, this should all be considered in the flawed but more consistent single timeline model of time travel from the 80s. The multiverse must be avoided at all costs, because it removes all the stakes. James Cameron, if you happened to make it this far, I promise I won't sue you if use this idea. If you are dead-set on making a T7, and you really really shouldn't because I'm sure there are so many other fresh ideas you want to tackle, I just want it to be good, and to give the loop a closure that respects the struggle of T1&T2. If anyone else read all of this, I really appreciate it. I don't have anywhere else to put all of these rambling essays that result from my ADHD leading me away from the work I absolutely need to be doing to this work. ;)

      I had the same theory that skynet didn't understand what made a fake person look feel and act like a real person and they learn from their mistakes with the t600 model. When they made the t800 they simply copied a real person one for one with all of their flaws knowing that they couldn't understand which flaws to do on purpose in order to make a convincing fake person so they simply copied somebody who is large enough to fit over the 800 skeleton and that person happened to be a Mr universe bodybuilder from Austria. The fact that the other Terminator in t1 was also a Mr universe bodybuilder gives even more credit to that theory.

      1. The future war we see in Salvation just doesn't look much like the bits we saw in T1-3. The stylistic reasons are obvious. The narrative reasons are that Skynet needs to launch a big offensive to get things to the state we see later. However, there isn't much tension built up about this. Nobody really seems worried about it, which is weird, and yet again the franchise trope of nobody believing anything the Connors say is in full effect.
      2. Connecting with point 1, this was supposed to launch a trilogy / franchise, but made the cardinal sin of not enough of import happening in the movie to generate excitement. The idea with John surviving the ambush and blowing up the T-800 factory, which thereby averts a worse outcome, kind of robs us of knowing the stakes of NOT having John alive or in charge.
      3. The whole bio-terminator who doesn't know he is a terminator isn't very surprising so it is just kind of frustrating waiting for everyone to figure it out. It also takes the focus off of the Connors and it isn't very interesting.
      4. Film commits the 2nd cardinal sin of giving too much insight into Skynet. Skynet works when it is an unfathomable, creepy, mysterious, insane AI black box. Not so much when it is Helena Bonham Carter. The machine armies, as they are, don't really seem to do anything but wander aimlessly and kill or capture targets of opportunity, which makes them look less than capable or scary.
      5. The B story about kid reese and his orphan friend is realistically not how we want to see him and doesn't pay off to anything.
      6. The 3rd cardinal sin is committed which is that the hero characters, the Connors, aren't very interesting, nor do they appear to be the highly capable people that we know they have to be eventually. They end the film the same as they start it, 0 development and 0 arc.
      That's all a long winded way of saying that Salvation is hateable because it is pointless, kinda boring, and often doesn't match the tone and style of the world in the other movies. You can easily leave it in the T1-3 timeline if you want to, because its just a step in the road to getting to events that actually matter, and that actually take place in the era we are told through 3 films is the critical turning point of the war. The fact that it doesn't ruin the other key franchise films is like the one thing it has going for it.

    It's L.A. Not everyone would have had an American accent, especially the latino community.
    But I think imperfections in the terminators and how each model improves them is true to how AI's pick up on patterns. Kind of like how AI generated images can't yet perfect hands and fingers.
    Another interesting fact, the T-800s use the same processor as the NES and commodore 64. In the bottom left of the terminators vision you can see 6502 assembly code.

    I don’t know what is the official story on this tidbit but the original smashed Terminator head and body in the metal press ( though not working could be easily reconstructed) plus the working arm and piece of cpu seen in T2 along with the photographs taken in T1 and T2 would surely get the Army and Cyberdyne’s attention, especially if there was already a high ranking officer who looked just like him … and of course this would be a time paradox. To make things more complicated, T2 talks about how the original models were rubber/plastic exteriors and were easily detectable, so were the army ones intended to have rubberized skin as well?

    I learned recently that Arnold wanted to do his own voice for the German dub, but they wouldn’t let him.

    It's kind of his trademark. After Conan the Barbarian it might have been weirder for general audiences to dub over it. That aside: inside the narrative of the film it actually works really well, imo. You can say "he doesn't blend in well" and that is true, but he still passes for human with the people he interacts with, which is still pretty remarkable. He's a a scary, huge, weird talking guy, but still just a guy.

    Terminator, much like Alien, should have ended at two movies.
    Kind of weird to think about it now, but prior to the 80s, sequels weren't that common. There aren't that many popular movies from the 50s, 60s and 70s that became "franchises". Mostly just one and done films. Then in the 80s, film producers figured out they can milk films and their audiences ad infinitum.
    Now almost every long-running film franchise is a zombie, a soulless, worn-out husk of something that used to be full of life and something people used to love.

    • @ryanbarker5217
      @ryanbarker5217 Месяц назад

      they weren't as common, though not really rare. the difference was movies weren't necessarily designed to have sequels like they are now. something like 'the peanuts' and beach blanket bingo's weren't going to be one-and-done.
      of course, comedy franchises were around, and the universal studios monsters got tons of sequels. 'the godfather' movies, loosely the 'man with no name' clint eastwood flicks, 'the magnificent seven,' pink panther movies, james bond, gozilla flicks, 'rocky,' 'superman,' 'star trek' is obviously meant to have sequels, 'the exorcist,' 'jaws,' even something like 'the dirty dozen,' if they could squeeze another movie out of it they might. like today, comedy and horror are cheap to make and have a good ROI, so those especially would get sequels.
      yeah, to say sequels were rare just means you didn't do your research, lol. i get it, though, something like '12 angry men' isn't going to have a part deux, where today every movie is left open for sequels. still, sequels were all over the place. i could spend the next hour listing them to the point where you'd be like, okay, dude, i get it, stfu already!
