The Terminator is definitely one of the classic films that has made such a massive mark on pop culture. You’re going to love Terminator 2: Judgment Day
It's a shame films, like Beverly Hills Cop, made it impossible for The Terminator to gross more money at the box office. People just weren't ready for The Terminator back in 1984, but you are right, The Terminator did make a massive mark on pop culture

@criminalcontent That hair style of Sarah's that you didn't like was SUPER popular in the early 80s. The special effects were lacking because it was made on a very small budget. T2 showed what Cameron could do with the budget he wanted, but it was lacking the inspiration T1 had in my opinion. T1 was a dark sci-fi, thriller noir (almost like a horror). T2 is more like a sci-fi action.
Michael Biehn is amazing, and I hope Coby watches more of his movies (The Abyss, Aliens, Navy Seals, The Rock). He's an underrated/underutilized actor, IMO.
@@DougRayPhillips Yes. I had to go check the movie list and see if anyone from this channel had watched it yet. Unless I missed it, it's not been viewed. Perhaps it's already been watched and therefore not a first view opportunity? But if Coby has seen Tombstone, then she didn't recognize Michael Bien as Ringo. Such a great character and he played it marvelously. Kilmer is great, but Biehn pulled off being great opposite of Kilmer.
@@richardb6260 - let's not forget the "Battle Beyond the Stars" in 1980 (art director in that movie), and that he was also carrying out the special effect for "Escape from New York" in 1981 (the one done by Carpenter), and worked on few more other movies in that time. The guy was already a pretty good at his craft way beyond the "Aliens" (1986). The Terminator (1984) was just a proof of that, and his craft, and professional approach. And it all escalated from that point :)
@@tannhauser5399 He says he was taken off the movie and it was finished by the producers. He had no say in the final cut. He got really sick while making the film and in one of the dreams he had while he was running a fever was the chrome skeleton that became the Terminator.
Me and my 8 buddies had gotten off of work at 9:00 at Costco, or back then, it was called the Price Club. There was a movie theater a couple of miles away, we all decided to go to whichever movie was playing next. It was a low-budget movie that none of us had ever heard of, it just come out, it was called The Terminator, and needless to say we were completely blown away!
I saw it opening night my senior year of high school. I didn't know much about it either. After seeing the special effects in the first scene, I didn't have high hopes. I ended up seeing it six times in the theater. I had the soundtrack on cassette.
@@dogawful Do you know/ remember who plays the music that was playing in TechNoir, the club on Pico? I have been trying to find it since the days of Napster!
@@lucianaromulus1408 I massage alien the night that it opened in our local theater. it basically scared the piss out of me. It had a one-week run and I saw it six more nights in a row, each night taking somebody else, a friend, or a date, just to watch them be as scared as I was!
the pace of the film , the direction from James Cameron, the tightly written script, the story and the tone of the film is unmatched, imo this is one of the most original, unique and underrated films ever made, definitely in the top 5 best sci-fi films ever made.
I agree. I belong to the minority who consider the original Terminator to be the best T-movie. Among other things, for what you wrote. It has an atmosphere that is unbeatable. I saw it on VHS in the late 80s (secretly because I was too young) and it is still one of my most defining film experiences. We loved T2 when it came out, and I still love it but in retrospect, the original Terminator is the real deal.
If Sarah hadn't accidentally bumped into the pneumatic press it wouldn't be open for the cyborg to be crushed into or learn which button not to push to close it. Tight script indeed.
It was also made with guerrilla film making techniques. At the time Cameron couldn’t get the necessary permits for certain scenes. So they went to the desired location and shot what they could before the cops arrived.
At the end when the attendant says " He said there's a storm coming in ", the way she looks into the distance and says " I know " literally gives me chills. Perfect ending.
My favorite bit is when he's in the apartment as the landlord is asking about the odor coming from the room. The Terminator cycles through possible responses and comes up with "Fuck you, asshole", which is a nod to the scene where the T-800 first arrives and encountered that gang of thugs led by Bill Paxton.
@@KHAOE1 Well, that /was/ one of the options given by the landlord, from a machine's perspective, it's a valid response: Yes/No, Please go away, Or what, Fuck you, Fuck you, asshole.
Listen and understand, that terminator is out there it can't be bargained with, it can't reasoned with, it doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear and it absolutely will not stop ever until you are dead. Legendary quote.
The terminator lost his eyebrows when he ran through the fire ... as far as Reese, didn't you watch Aliens? There are lots of these films, but the only other must see is Terminator 2 ... One of the greatest sequels ever and it ends pretty nice - no need to have ever gone further. "I'll be back" did indeed become something Schwarzenegger says in all (?) his films. This was the first, but was a sticking point between Arnold and Cameron. Arnold was insistent that a robot wouldn't use the contraction. Cameron convinced him and it became a Hollywood touchstone.
Every reactor seems to forget that they just saw the Terminator on FIRE in the previous scene when he landed on the hood of their car. His hair is also burnt shorter too. 😆
@@Dave3Dguy in Coby's defense, eyebrows are a strangely overlooked change. My sister got alopecia, and before she got eyebrows tattoos, it was very hard to put your finger on exactly what was off. When you did, you slapped your forehead over how obvious it was.
@@Hapsard Yep. I had seen this movie a bunch of times (I even saw it's TV premiere on NBC (I think)) and never noticed his eyebrows were missing until I started watching reaction vids on RUclips. That's why I keep watching reaction videos. I love finding little bits and pieces I never noticed.
Forty years ago this classic was groundbreaking. Linda Hamilton is the 🌟of Terminator I & II movies. Her growth from nice waitress to the mother of the resistance leader was amazing. Great cast acting.
When Reese tells her about the picture he says. "I always wondered what you where thinking." When the picture was taken she was thinking about him. All of James Cameron's movies are about love. If you ask me this is the ultimate love story.
@travisstump604 - No, not even close. Not sure why everybody is repeating it. Have to slightly disagree with it ;) Especially, considering the size of her pregnancy in the car (at the end of the movie), which most likely was several months after the events, and also she didn't know that particular photo was the one that Kyle was refering to. She has never seen that photo that Kyle was refering to. She had no frame of reference. Just some kid took her photo at that point, at the end of the movie. Thinking about him? Maybe, in a small way. I can see it, and agree with that small part. But just him? But I bet that lady, at that point was thinking about much larges issues: end of the world, her child, and so on. Even her expression, at the end when the kid is asking her, or telling her: "The storm is comming". At this point she was already much tougher lady than somebody who was just thinking only about "him". Just one person. And she is responding with "I know". That is some deeper appraoch. Not just thinking about Kyle. She was beyond that at this point, especially when that event was taking place a few months after she killed Terminator, and was already knew that Kyle was the father of her child. The one that will later on, send Kyle back in time (yeah, talk about classic time travel loop).
I highly agree with you on that at least part of the way granted this is 90% action sci-fi but James Cameron knows how to put a really good love story as well especially one so amazing well written and beautiful
@@tannhauser5399 Are you crazy? She is literally talking about Kyle right before the photo was taken. I have absolutely no idea why you are bringing up so much irrelevant stuff. Madness.
@@SkemeKOS Seriously. The kid literally snaps the picture when she says, "We loved a lifetime's worth." And you can see the pain in her face as she contemplates her lost love. No idea what the commenter is going on about regarding her not knowing it's the same photo. Of course she doesn't. It's a moot point.
There are several paradoxes in Temporal Mechanics. The one demonstrated in these movies is the (Predestination Paradox) - when the actions of a person traveling back in time become part of past events, and may ultimately cause the event he is trying to prevent to take place. The result is a ‘temporal causality loop’ in which Event 1 in the past influences Event 2 in the future (time travel to the past) which then causes Event 1 to occur.
that is.nt necessarily true but it is possible it would more likely cause the event 1 to happen earlier or later depending on what changed, or stop it as was intended. the future is not fated or set it can change.
I think the only way to prevent a bootstrap paradox is by the time travel event creating an alternate timeline, but this completely defeats the purpose of the time travel. Kind of like if you were to go back in time to give your past self the winning lotto numbers for an upcoming drawing. This would not change anything for your existing timeline. Then there is the self-fulfilling prophecy aspect of time travel, where anything and everything you do to prevent the future events is what causes them to happen.
@@ulibarriL Bootstrap paradox creates an infinite time loop. While the Predestination Paradox occurs only once. Just google bootstrap vs Predestination Paradox to see.
The movie is a time travel paradox. It’s why it works so well. It forms a perfect loop. There are other franchises that have done this as well. Great reaction BTW.
The most ironic fun fact of all time: The producers of this film wanted OJ Simpson to be the terminator, but Cameron didn't think he looked like a killer.
@libertyresearch-iu4fy - plenty of more trivia there too. Also , you have to notice that one of the people who also encounter Terminator/Arnold, is played by Bill Paxton (and they both played togeter in Aliens movie later on). Bill was one of those three guys at the beginning, in front of telescope. And the other guy, right hand side on the screen, is Brian Thompson - the "famous" alien bounty hunter from X-Files series (or the "bad" guy from the "Cobra" movie with Stallone). - Or even something simple as: "Cameron's voice is heard three times in the movie: as Sarah Connor's date on the answering machine and twice as a manager of Tiki motel, who is heard (but not seen) speaking to Sarah and then again answers the phone when The Terminator calls" - Or that Arnold was originally sent the script to read for the part of Reese but thankfully convinced Cameron that the cyborg would be more his style. - Or even Michael Biehn, who had to read for his part twice, because he had just been auditioning for a stage play of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" and was still in Southern mode. So his first reading was not that great. He went back, dropped the accent and got the part. Edit: spelling/grammar
I love stuff like that. You don't make the connection until later with repeat viewings. Like: * Kyle said he always wondered what Sarah was thinking about in the picture. Turns out, she was thinking of him. * She says on the answering machine, "Fooled you. You're talking to a machine." She is later fooled by talking to a machine. * Kyle says John is about his height. Foreshadowing him being the father. * Kyle says the father dies before the war. * The toy semi-truck gets destroyed in the movie when the Terminator is driving. Later, a real-semi truck gets destroyed while the Terminator is driving. * In trying to prevent its destruction Skynet creates a time machine. Dramatic irony because it ensures the leader who destroys Skynet. But in a deleted scene shows it becomes the catalyst for its own creation. * T2: Robert Patrick gives a look at a silver mannequin. Something that makes little sense until later. * T2: Janene uses a knife to cut vegetables. Which is more dramatic irony with what happens later. • T2: Once Sarah was on the run from a Terminator. Later, Sarah becomes like a Terminator. Decked out in black, sunglasses and weapons. James Cameron doesn't do this as much in other movies. I think he adds these because it fits the cylical themes of time travel so well. Plus the nature if time travel movies. Things make sense when you go back and re-watch it, knowing what happens in the future. Like a future flashback. Like, in Back to te Future when the Twin Pines Mall becomes the Lone Pine Mall when Marty returns.
Actually, OJ had the roll but Arnold convinced Cameron how a Robot would act he gave Arnold the roll instead. Lots of videos here with Arnold telling the story, he wanted the roll of Reece because it had more lines.
My favourite part, and a sad fact, is when Kyle said that he always wondered what Sarah was thinking at that moment in the picture. And she was thinking in Kyle during that tape record. Lovers across time....
@@MASO204The term “shotgun “ or “riding shotgun” came from the old west where a bodyguard, usually carrying a shot gun or a rifle, would sit next to the driver of the stagecoach and keep a lookout.
He singed his eyebrows off when he ran through the flames in the alley. He DID have them at the beginning. Yes, Arnie's catchphrase was born in this movie.
Months after this movie came out, they held a special midnight showing in a lecture hall at the University of Boulder, Colorado. It was a friggin' PARTY. This movie was HUGE at the time.
Thank you, Coby. That was a very enjoyable reaction. I recommend you watch ALL the sequels, because they each continue the storyline while showing what John meant in his message to Sarah, "The future is not set." Also, here is a little food for thought. It was 1984 when Kyle told Sarah that it would be about 40 years before cyborgs could be manufactured. Well, it is now exactly 40 years later, and his estimation appears to be pretty accurate when you consider all the advancements in robotics and their military applications.
James Cameron launched a revolution on multiple levels with this film! Your reaction is fun and genuine! Your progression figuring it out is wild to watch! Thanks for sharing!
The first Terminator movie, one of Cameron's early works, was a low budget movie. But it was so successful, that Terminator 2 became the most expensive movie ever made until then, the first one to exceed a budget of 100 million dollars. That is what made James Cameron the big budget juggler he became. With T2, Titanic and Avatar he broke the record for the most expensive movie three times. Well, two of them also were the most successful movies ever made by then, Titanic being the first one to make over a billion dollars at the box offices, Avatar the first one beating 2 billion. And while Terminator 2 did not make it on top of the list, it was still one of the most successful movies made by then. And a big commercial success, despite its crazy production costs.
Coby, there are 6 Terminator movies. The first two are the best, but some of the others are worth a look at least if you're a sci-fi nut. I remember I was in the wardroom of the USS Caloosahatchee in the Indian Ocean when I first saw this movie in 1984. Hope you like 👍
The first couple of terminator movies are arguably some of the best science/fiction action adventure movies ever made... After that the quality drops significantly - even as budgets gets much larger...great reaction. Looking forward to the sequel.
Almost in the first scene with the three guys, the blue haired is Bill Paxton, a very well known actor who appeared in Titanic, Aliens or Twister, among another ones.
"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!" You cut out the best line in the film.
You rinse your mouth in the shower. Actually effective. Besides, it's a movie. They might have gotten basic supplies as they couldn't have gone without food for a really long time and you just don't show everything in the required run time. Not much of a stretch. Would be different if they were stranded on an island with no supplies.
Great reaction. And yeah, Kyle being the dad, but not knowing he was the father, it is the whole terminator paradox. And keep watching. Terminator 2 is quite possibly the best sequel ever, if not, then #2 behind Godfather 2.
Dude I’m sure everyone is thrilled for you to react to T2. I love this movie. Kyle is so great and Michael Biehn (sp?) is spectacular in the part. Obviously Arnold is perfect as the Terminator. I love that she’s thinking of her love for Kyle as that pic is taken and Kyle stares at it in the future wondering what she’s thinking…
25:25 The Terminator examines the structural integrity of the receiving window and states, flatly, "I'll be back" (once it has found a suitable amount of force to break through). A nice touch they put in.
The timeloop paradox IS the premise and it's a prominent aspect of 2 of the films and referenced in all of them. Hence, no fate but what we make. No one truly knows how the war started because of the paradox.
42:20 In one of the deleted scenes that takes place as Sarah is taken away in the ambulance the camera pulls back and it is revealed that the factory that the terminator was killed in, was, in fact, the factory in which he was built. Cyberdyne Systems.
The Terminator: Original Soundtrack is a soundtrack album by Brad Fiedel, composed and performed on synthesizer for the 1984 film The Terminator.Fiedel described the film's music as being about "a mechanical man and his heartbeat". Almost all the music in the film was performed live
This was the best reaction-vid as far as content as most reaction hosts conclude at about 34 minutes. This host, Coby, was also gracious enough to spare us from non-stop personal dialogue while other hosts ramble on ad infinitum! Well done Coby!
I love the photo moment. Kyle asks that he was wondering what she was thinking in that moment of the photo. If you flip to the end, she was thinking of him. Another crazy loop moment.
It is hard to imagine now that "The Terminator" and "Alien" were stand alone films when they first came out. For both of them it was around 7 years before a sequel came out. Looking at all the dozens of sequels it is easy to think that they were made as franchise films when they were not.
All four of those films are before my time, but I can believe it. Aliens and the first two Terminator films all end in a very complete, conclusive way that makes it clear they never expected to get sequels. There's not much wiggle room for a conventional sequel in any of their endings - Terminator 2, great as it is, has to fudge what was established in the first film in order to make a sequel possible. The original Alien is the only one of the four with an obvious sequel setup.
If you read the book, there is information they did not use for the movie. The Terminator and the machines did not have any more information on Sarah than that she had been in the hospital and had a pin in her left leg. Arnold went down the list and killed each one, cutting open the left leg looking for the pin. Unfortunately, Sarah wouldn't have had one as she did not get the pin until the T-800 blew up and a piece pierced her left causing damage to the bone. Not something they could easily explain in the movie without slowing the pace down. You are usually spot on catching faces of other actors, so was surprised you did not notice Lance Henrikson (the 2nd detective) or Michael Biehn (Reese), or Bill Paxton (rainbow mohawk punk). All three are in Aliens as well.
You will LOVE T2 and get much more insight into the reason for things still not clear. All the Terminator films are worth watching for the story arch but for me T2 is the cherry on top.
@@Brian-qn7fn well, if you watch her eventual reaction, she did, in fact, love it (which is exactly what I said she would). So, sucks in your opinion or not, my point was that she would love it & it was proven correct if you watch her reaction for T2 that was posted well after my original comments here. She says, before signing off - “I think I liked this one (T2) more.” So I don’t know what to tell ya. 🤷♂️
Great reaction. Nice to see the puppy again too. The only discrepancy I can find is when the cop tells Sarah that her mother is driving in from Tucson but she's at a cabin where she is killed.
LOL @@criminalcontent when I was born in '95, my dad wanted to name me Sara, & my mom goes, "Why don't we name her Sarah after T2." ...so I've always been Sarah the Terminator LOL (or Gravy, after my dog Gravydog)
Cameron mentioned in an interview after this premiered that he borrowed the idea from two screenplays Harlan Ellison wrote for the Outer Limits. Ellison sued and won, that's why it has the acknowledgement to his works at the end of the film. It was part of the settlement.
Wrong on multiple accounts. Cameron never said that and Ellison didn't win a lawsuit. Cameron was not aware of Ellison's work and the stories are not very similar. Ellison is an a-hole who likes to sue people. Cameron wanted to go to trial, but the producers made him settle. He is still pissed about it.
It's also very interesting regarding the Polaroid photo of Sara with the dog and the bandana. That is the picture that Reese has that causes him to fall in love with Sara and in the end you will notice the instant the picture was taken, Sara is thinking of her love for Reese ("in the hours we had we loved a lifetime's worth").
You have to remember that James Cameron was still making low budget B-movies at the time. This film was a bit of a step up but still only had a $6.5M budget. It was cool to see them get so much out of the small budget. And Arnold was pretty much a punchline to a joke back then, even though he'd starred in a couple of Conan films. It seemed like that's all the public would accept from him. No one expected to see him in a contemporary thriller. This film showcased his screen presence and he took off to star in a few more action films soon after, even though his accent and awkward acting style were still present. Ultimately this film made around $78M, which was a huge return on the investment. Seven years later the much fancier and colder sequel would cost over $100M. The "good guy" Michael Biehn would appear in Cameron's "Aliens." Cameron would eventually marry Linda Hamilton.
I think the accent kinda adds to the Terminator though. It kinda rings of robotic voice synthesizer that hasn't quite nailed down human speech yet, but it's passable as a heavy accent. Also, I see people complain that Arnold blinks when a gun is fired, while Rober Patrick didn't, but I'm here to say that it's explicitly stated that the T1000 is a prototype, whereas the T800 model 101 (Arnold) is a production model. The T1000 might not have all the bugs worked out yet (in fact, comic lore says that SkyNet sent the T1000 as a last resort because the T1000 was dangerously smart and not quite finished), which could have caused some of it's less human-looking mannerisms. A Terminator that blinks and responds like a human would is a better infiltrator. Robert Patrick really nailed his performance though, along with Arnold
JFC you were born in 1984? I'd never have put you in my age bracket, 82 baby. Though, now your intelligent insights into movies make more sense. Great channel & choice of movie picks 👏
Yeah, I’m still trying to wrap my head around Coby being 40 years old. I keep re-running the numbers and the only thing that makes sense is that my math skills have left the building.
There were only 3 Sarah Conners in the phone book when she was looking at it in the bar. The terminator knew it was the right Sarah since she was the only one left.
Unless, of course, she had an unlisted number. Or the phone was in Ginger's name. Or she had no phone at all. I'm wondering how the terminator would ever know if he got the right one.
@@TheChapelGroveAs a machine, he would logically start with the phone book, because it’s the most accessible form of information and eliminate in ascending order until all known resources were exhausted. Not to mention, he could’ve done a simple search on her in the police cruiser computer near the beginning.
Well a second clue that he now had the right Sarah was that someone was protecting her. She must be important. Also the terminator may also know who kyle is.......
He didn't actually have to know. He would just kill the third one then start looking for other possible Sarah Connors that aren't easy to find. Why dig for unlisted numbers when you can just start with the listed ones first? Also, if The Terminator knew that Reese was from the future, then he would know he had the correct Sarah Connor.
I was 18 when I saw this in the theater. It blew me away. We never seen anything like this before. The stop motion and practical effects are amazing! T2 is even better! 🤞✌
"I'll Be Back" is arguably the single most parodied line in history.... Right up there with "No, I am your Father" "Go ahead, make my Day" "It's Alive! IT'S ALIVE" "I'll make him an offer he can't refuse"
Ah man I love it when Coby gets grossed out and makes funny faces and noises and goes all daggy (she knows what that means)!! Another great reaction vid! And yeah, time paradox city!
Fun fact: The guy whose voice you hear Sarah play on her answering machine, the guy with the Porche who blew her off, cancelling their date....was actually James Cameron. 😉
But there is also a great TV show, that sadly was canceled way to early : "Terminator : The Sarah Connor Chronicles" with Lena Headey and Summer Glau. Also the other Game of Thrones collab with Khaleesi is really underrated imho. Of course not comparable to 1 and 2, but its still a quite good movie.
Hi Coby, cool it's awesome you've seen this sci-fi classic :) it's one of Arnie's best. Please react to Terminator 2 soon, it's the GOAT sequel! And, spoiler alert, Arnie is back! You're one of my favourite Popcorn Roulette reactors.
What I always loved was how Kyle wondered what Sarah was thinking of in that polaroid of her. He'd never find out that she was thinking of him in that photo this whole time. I LOVED THIS video! You have to cover Terminator 2: Judgement Day. It's one of the greatest movies / sequels of all time. And check out Terminator 3 and Terminator Salvation -- they provide some interesting takes in the franchise.. but you can def skip Genisys and Dark Fate lmao.
The Terminator and Back to the Future made me love time travel films, but this one really opened the door to the concept of AI in sci-fi films. Great reaction from Coby, I'm sure we will all agree for her to watch Terminator 2. It was the long awaited sequel that really pays off.
I mean, AI had appeared in sci-fi films many times beforehand, maybe most famously (by 1984) in "2001: A Space Odyssey". Killer robots/androids appeared in "Westworld" in 1973. Killer AI from "Colossus: The Forbin Project" (1970), "Demon Seed" (1977) etc. years previously. Hell even "War Games" was before this (albeit only by a year). _Maybe_ this made it a more _mainstream_ idea but the door was already wide open IMO.
@@anonymes2884 My point was that this film opened 'MY' eyes to the concept of AI, and because of my age this film resonated with me at the time. I wasn't old enough to appreciate some of those other films or had seen them at the time this film caught my attention.
I don't usually watch someone's Terminator reaction until their Terminator 2 reaction goes up... Because to me they are together a single story. A great story.
Right, it’s the 2nd Street tunnel, which they enter on the Hill Street end. Diagonally across the block and almost due south is the Bradbury Building at 3rd and Broadway.
So many react channels are thrown by the sudden lack of eyebrows on Arnie. Can't blame them all; the movie doesn't do enough to link the fireball to his change in appearance. Showing the fire on his face, or even a clearer view of his face when he's about to punch the windshield, would have helped.
Sweet baby Jesus... have you seen Tropic Thunder? There's a line in there meant for you. After Arnold comes through the flames and jumps on the hood, they clearly show his face, with smoke coming off of it. And you can clearly see his eyebrows are gone. I swear, the younger people are the more they need an explanation that water is wet...
Okay, you definitely deserve a prize. I've seen at least 8 or 10 reactions to this movie, and I have NEVER seen anyone predict so many details - both large and small - beforehand. Which made it that much more satisfying when you were finally surprised by something: 41:08 "He's not even blown up enough!!" 😂😂😂 You weren't wrong. I'll add my comment to, I assume, every single other commenter on here when I say that you absolutely have to see Terminator 2. Every other sequel to this is completely optional, but T2 is great stuff. It's this movie, but with a big budget. I look forward to your reaction to it.

Perhaps it's already been watched and therefore not a first view opportunity? But if Coby has seen Tombstone, then she didn't recognize Michael Bien as Ringo. Such a great character and he played it marvelously. Kilmer is great, but Biehn pulled off being great opposite of Kilmer.
Don’t forget cherry falls that was a good one
Tombstone

@daveygivens735 - true, as I don't think his first movie was that great, "Piranha II: The Spawning" ;)
@@richardb6260 - let's not forget the "Battle Beyond the Stars" in 1980 (art director in that movie), and that he was also carrying out the special effect for "Escape from New York" in 1981 (the one done by Carpenter), and worked on few more other movies in that time. The guy was already a pretty good at his craft way beyond the "Aliens" (1986). The Terminator (1984) was just a proof of that, and his craft, and professional approach. And it all escalated from that point :)
@@tannhauser5399 He says he was taken off the movie and it was finished by the producers. He had no say in the final cut. He got really sick while making the film and in one of the dreams he had while he was running a fever was the chrome skeleton that became the Terminator.
I love these reaction videos.... Coby is so beautiful, when I see her in these, I literally want to cry 😭
Me and my 8 buddies had gotten off of work at 9:00 at Costco, or back then, it was called the Price Club. There was a movie theater a couple of miles away, we all decided to go to whichever movie was playing next. It was a low-budget movie that none of us had ever heard of, it just come out, it was called The Terminator, and needless to say we were completely blown away!
I saw it opening night my senior year of high school. I didn't know much about it either. After seeing the special effects in the first scene, I didn't have high hopes. I ended up seeing it six times in the theater. I had the soundtrack on cassette.
@@dogawful Do you know/ remember who plays the music that was playing in TechNoir, the club on Pico? I have been trying to find it since the days of Napster!
@@nmt2k2"Burnin' in the Third Degree" probably.
I'm SO jealous, seeing this and Alien in 79 would have been AMAZING. I was born in 90 so I missed it 😢😅
@@lucianaromulus1408 I massage alien the night that it opened in our local theater. it basically scared the piss out of me. It had a one-week run and I saw it six more nights in a row, each night taking somebody else, a friend, or a date, just to watch them be as scared as I was!
the pace of the film , the direction from James Cameron, the tightly written script, the story and the tone of the film is unmatched, imo this is one of the most original, unique and underrated films ever made, definitely in the top 5 best sci-fi films ever made.
I agree. I belong to the minority who consider the original Terminator to be the best T-movie. Among other things, for what you wrote. It has an atmosphere that is unbeatable. I saw it on VHS in the late 80s (secretly because I was too young) and it is still one of my most defining film experiences. We loved T2 when it came out, and I still love it but in retrospect, the original Terminator is the real deal.
If Sarah hadn't accidentally bumped into the pneumatic press it wouldn't be open for the cyborg to be crushed into or learn which button not to push to close it. Tight script indeed.
It was also made with guerrilla film making techniques. At the time Cameron couldn’t get the necessary permits for certain scenes. So they went to the desired location and shot what they could before the cops arrived.
high bar with bttf trilogy and t2 taking up 4 of the slots. kind feel star wars episode 4 takes the last slot but it is close
I agree, I would say arguably 2 is the most fun and rewatchable, a typical blockbuster and its great but the 1st movie is the better movie
At the end when the attendant says " He said there's a storm coming in ", the way she looks into the distance and says " I know " literally gives me chills. Perfect ending.
My favorite bit is when he's in the apartment as the landlord is asking about the odor coming from the room. The Terminator cycles through possible responses and comes up with "Fuck you, asshole", which is a nod to the scene where the T-800 first arrives and encountered that gang of thugs led by Bill Paxton.
I've watched this movie 100x, and never noticed that
What's funny is that one of the answers is "Or what" which would have been a funny (and smart) response as well.
@@KHAOE1 Well, that /was/ one of the options given by the landlord, from a machine's perspective, it's a valid response: Yes/No, Please go away, Or what, Fuck you, Fuck you, asshole.
I never made that connection
I just bought the Last Exit to Nowhere shirt with that readout screen/the choices (which makes no sense but) - love it!
I love it when they get so caught up in the movie that they start talking to it. Never gets old.
Listen and understand, that terminator is out there it can't be bargained with, it can't reasoned with, it doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear and it absolutely will not stop ever until you are dead.
Legendary quote.
The terminator lost his eyebrows when he ran through the fire ...
as far as Reese, didn't you watch Aliens?
There are lots of these films, but the only other must see is Terminator 2 ... One of the greatest sequels ever and it ends pretty nice - no need to have ever gone further.
"I'll be back" did indeed become something Schwarzenegger says in all (?) his films. This was the first, but was a sticking point between Arnold and Cameron. Arnold was insistent that a robot wouldn't use the contraction. Cameron convinced him and it became a Hollywood touchstone.
Every reactor seems to forget that they just saw the Terminator on FIRE in the previous scene when he landed on the hood of their car. His hair is also burnt shorter too. 😆
@@Dave3Dguy in Coby's defense, eyebrows are a strangely overlooked change. My sister got alopecia, and before she got eyebrows tattoos, it was very hard to put your finger on exactly what was off. When you did, you slapped your forehead over how obvious it was.
@@Hapsard Yep. I had seen this movie a bunch of times (I even saw it's TV premiere on NBC (I think)) and never noticed his eyebrows were missing until I started watching reaction vids on RUclips. That's why I keep watching reaction videos. I love finding little bits and pieces I never noticed.

When Reese tells her about the picture he says.
"I always wondered what you where thinking."
When the picture was taken she was thinking about him.
All of James Cameron's movies are about love. If you ask me this is the ultimate love story.
@travisstump604 - No, not even close. Not sure why everybody is repeating it. Have to slightly disagree with it ;)
Especially, considering the size of her pregnancy in the car (at the end of the movie), which most likely was several months after the events, and also she didn't know that particular photo was the one that Kyle was refering to. She has never seen that photo that Kyle was refering to. She had no frame of reference. Just some kid took her photo at that point, at the end of the movie.
Thinking about him? Maybe, in a small way. I can see it, and agree with that small part. But just him? But I bet that lady, at that point was thinking about much larges issues: end of the world, her child, and so on. Even her expression, at the end when the kid is asking her, or telling her: "The storm is comming". At this point she was already much tougher lady than somebody who was just thinking only about "him". Just one person.
And she is responding with "I know". That is some deeper appraoch. Not just thinking about Kyle. She was beyond that at this point, especially when that event was taking place a few months after she killed Terminator, and was already knew that Kyle was the father of her child. The one that will later on, send Kyle back in time (yeah, talk about classic time travel loop).
I highly agree with you on that at least part of the way granted this is 90% action sci-fi but James Cameron knows how to put a really good love story as well especially one so amazing well written and beautiful
@@tannhauser5399 Are you crazy? She is literally talking about Kyle right before the photo was taken. I have absolutely no idea why you are bringing up so much irrelevant stuff.

People at work haven't seen the Terminator and it reminds me that I'm old now.
Your face expressions during this reaction were amazing Coby :) Great reaction.
There are several paradoxes in Temporal Mechanics. The one demonstrated in these movies is the (Predestination Paradox) - when the actions of a person traveling back in time become part of past events, and may ultimately cause the event he is trying to prevent to take place. The result is a ‘temporal causality loop’ in which Event 1 in the past influences Event 2 in the future (time travel to the past) which then causes Event 1 to occur.
that is.nt necessarily true but it is possible it would more likely cause the event 1 to happen earlier or later depending on what changed, or stop it as was intended. the future is not fated or set it can change.
I believe this an example of the Bootstrap Paradox (one of the many paradoxes when it comes to time travel)
I think the only way to prevent a bootstrap paradox is by the time travel event creating an alternate timeline, but this completely defeats the purpose of the time travel. Kind of like if you were to go back in time to give your past self the winning lotto numbers for an upcoming drawing. This would not change anything for your existing timeline. Then there is the self-fulfilling prophecy aspect of time travel, where anything and everything you do to prevent the future events is what causes them to happen.
@@ulibarriL Bootstrap paradox creates an infinite time loop. While the Predestination Paradox occurs only once. Just google bootstrap vs Predestination Paradox to see.
Killing John Conner ruined the whole franchise.
I love watching people watch this movie. It's my favorite movie. I enjoyed this.
Thank you !
‘The word “unblowupable” is tossed around a lot these days…’

thank you !!
Coby counting the explosives like an OCD detective. 😂
The fact that the count was correct in the film shows what an anal retentive that Cameron is...lol
It might have been intuitive to do so. Like Columbo.
The movie is a time travel paradox. It’s why it works so well. It forms a perfect loop. There are other franchises that have done this as well. Great reaction BTW.
The most ironic fun fact of all time: The producers of this film wanted OJ Simpson to be the terminator, but Cameron didn't think he looked like a killer.
the twists of fate !
@libertyresearch-iu4fy - plenty of more trivia there too. Also , you have to notice that one of the people who also encounter Terminator/Arnold, is played by Bill Paxton (and they both played togeter in Aliens movie later on). Bill was one of those three guys at the beginning, in front of telescope. And the other guy, right hand side on the screen, is Brian Thompson - the "famous" alien bounty hunter from X-Files series (or the "bad" guy from the "Cobra" movie with Stallone).
- Or even something simple as: "Cameron's voice is heard three times in the movie: as Sarah Connor's date on the answering machine and twice as a manager of Tiki motel, who is heard (but not seen) speaking to Sarah and then again answers the phone when The Terminator calls"
- Or that Arnold was originally sent the script to read for the part of Reese but thankfully convinced Cameron that the cyborg would be more his style.
- Or even Michael Biehn, who had to read for his part twice, because he had just been auditioning for a stage play of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" and was still in Southern mode. So his first reading was not that great. He went back, dropped the accent and got the part.
Edit: spelling/grammar
I love stuff like that. You don't make the connection until later with repeat viewings. Like:
* Kyle said he always wondered what Sarah was thinking about in the picture. Turns out, she was thinking of him.
* She says on the answering machine, "Fooled you. You're talking to a machine." She is later fooled by talking to a machine.
* Kyle says John is about his height. Foreshadowing him being the father.
* Kyle says the father dies before the war.
* The toy semi-truck gets destroyed in the movie when the Terminator is driving. Later, a real-semi truck gets destroyed while the Terminator is driving.
* In trying to prevent its destruction Skynet creates a time machine. Dramatic irony because it ensures the leader who destroys Skynet. But in a deleted scene shows it becomes the catalyst for its own creation.
* T2: Robert Patrick gives a look at a silver mannequin. Something that makes little sense until later.
* T2: Janene uses a knife to cut vegetables. Which is more dramatic irony with what happens later.
• T2: Once Sarah was on the run from a Terminator. Later, Sarah becomes like a Terminator. Decked out in black, sunglasses and weapons.
James Cameron doesn't do this as much in other movies. I think he adds these because it fits the cylical themes of time travel so well. Plus the nature if time travel movies. Things make sense when you go back and re-watch it, knowing what happens in the future. Like a future flashback. Like, in Back to te Future when the Twin Pines Mall becomes the Lone Pine Mall when Marty returns.
OJ was not a killer according to US law ...
Actually, OJ had the roll but Arnold convinced Cameron how a Robot would act he gave Arnold the roll instead. Lots of videos here with Arnold telling the story, he wanted the roll of Reece because it had more lines.
My favourite part, and a sad fact, is when Kyle said that he always wondered what Sarah was thinking at that moment in the picture. And she was thinking in Kyle during that tape record. Lovers across time....
oh my god the amount of fucking dweebs that sprint to the comments to be the first person to say this are so fucking cringe

He singed his eyebrows off when he ran through the flames in the alley. He DID have them at the beginning. Yes, Arnie's catchphrase was born in this movie.
Months after this movie came out, they held a special midnight showing in a lecture hall at the University of Boulder, Colorado. It was a friggin' PARTY. This movie was HUGE at the time.
Thank you, Coby. That was a very enjoyable reaction. I recommend you watch ALL the sequels, because they each continue the storyline while showing what John meant in his message to Sarah, "The future is not set." Also, here is a little food for thought. It was 1984 when Kyle told Sarah that it would be about 40 years before cyborgs could be manufactured. Well, it is now exactly 40 years later, and his estimation appears to be pretty accurate when you consider all the advancements in robotics and their military applications.
James Cameron launched a revolution on multiple levels with this film! Your reaction is fun and genuine! Your progression figuring it out is wild to watch! Thanks for sharing!
First time viewer. Instantly subbed.
Awesome, thank you!
I’m not saying a thing…. You’re gonna love it!
The first Terminator movie, one of Cameron's early works, was a low budget movie. But it was so successful, that Terminator 2 became the most expensive movie ever made until then, the first one to exceed a budget of 100 million dollars. That is what made James Cameron the big budget juggler he became. With T2, Titanic and Avatar he broke the record for the most expensive movie three times. Well, two of them also were the most successful movies ever made by then, Titanic being the first one to make over a billion dollars at the box offices, Avatar the first one beating 2 billion.
And while Terminator 2 did not make it on top of the list, it was still one of the most successful movies made by then. And a big commercial success, despite its crazy production costs.
Number 2 is a must-see. Can't wait for you to do that one. Love your reactions!
Thanks for sharing! There really needs to be a round two. You should really watch at least number two. Stay safe ❤😊🐶
Thank you !!
Coby, there are 6 Terminator movies. The first two are the best, but some of the others are worth a look at least if you're a sci-fi nut. I remember I was in the wardroom of the USS Caloosahatchee in the Indian Ocean when I first saw this movie in 1984. Hope you like 👍
acceptable answers to the question are either 2 or 3, depending on if you count dark fates
The first couple of terminator movies are arguably some of the best science/fiction action adventure movies ever made... After that the quality drops significantly - even as budgets gets much larger...great reaction. Looking forward to the sequel.
Almost in the first scene with the three guys, the blue haired is Bill Paxton, a very well known actor who appeared in Titanic, Aliens or Twister, among another ones.
He's absolutely brillaint in Edge of Tomorrow with Tom Cruise as well :D
True Lies
Apollo 13 in a smaller role, and Weird Science too. Gone too soon. RIP Bill.😢
love your reaction. as far as remember everyone of your question will be answered with time.😊 you need to watch the whole series of films
"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!" You cut out the best line in the film.
Coby at 33:35 says no one has seen a toothbrush for days… “Love ❤️ does not require a toothbrush”. 😂
You rinse your mouth in the shower. Actually effective. Besides, it's a movie. They might have gotten basic supplies as they couldn't have gone without food for a really long time and you just don't show everything in the required run time. Not much of a stretch. Would be different if they were stranded on an island with no supplies.
Reese has been wearing a homeless man's pants with no underwear for several days too
But it doesn't hurt to have one handy, lol.
They didn’t floss either, which is as or more important.
Maybe, but playing tonsil hockey does require oral hygeine 😂👅👄🦷
"I came to this watch-along for you Coby. I love you and I always have." Too much? A guy's gotta try, eh? If only movie lines worked in real life.
Great reaction. And yeah, Kyle being the dad, but not knowing he was the father, it is the whole terminator paradox. And keep watching. Terminator 2 is quite possibly the best sequel ever, if not, then #2 behind Godfather 2.
Dude I’m sure everyone is thrilled for you to react to T2. I love this movie. Kyle is so great and Michael Biehn (sp?) is spectacular in the part. Obviously Arnold is perfect as the Terminator. I love that she’s thinking of her love for Kyle as that pic is taken and Kyle stares at it in the future wondering what she’s thinking…
25:25 The Terminator examines the structural integrity of the receiving window and states, flatly, "I'll be back" (once it has found a suitable amount of force to break through). A nice touch they put in.
He knows who he's looking for now because after Sarah called Ginger he saw her photo ID at the apartment.
The timeloop paradox IS the premise and it's a prominent aspect of 2 of the films and referenced in all of them. Hence, no fate but what we make. No one truly knows how the war started because of the paradox.
42:20 In one of the deleted scenes that takes place as Sarah is taken away in the ambulance the camera pulls back and it is revealed that the factory that the terminator was killed in, was, in fact, the factory in which he was built. Cyberdyne Systems.
Exactly
Yep, this is the best one. Second one is quality, but...its not quite same and maybe slightly watered down in comparison.
The Terminator: Original Soundtrack is a soundtrack album by Brad Fiedel, composed and performed on synthesizer for the 1984 film The Terminator.Fiedel described the film's music as being about "a mechanical man and his heartbeat". Almost all the music in the film was performed live
Get out of here! You've never seen The Terminator before? This I'm excited about!

I saw the terminator in 1984 in the theatre... I have all of the terminator movies... I loved seeing your reactions during the movie.. good stuff!
I love the photo moment. Kyle asks that he was wondering what she was thinking in that moment of the photo. If you flip to the end, she was thinking of him. Another crazy loop moment.

It is hard to imagine now that "The Terminator" and "Alien" were stand alone films when they first came out. For both of them it was around 7 years before a sequel came out. Looking at all the dozens of sequels it is easy to think that they were made as franchise films when they were not.
All four of those films are before my time, but I can believe it. Aliens and the first two Terminator films all end in a very complete, conclusive way that makes it clear they never expected to get sequels. There's not much wiggle room for a conventional sequel in any of their endings - Terminator 2, great as it is, has to fudge what was established in the first film in order to make a sequel possible. The original Alien is the only one of the four with an obvious sequel setup.
If you read the book, there is information they did not use for the movie. The Terminator and the machines did not have any more information on Sarah than that she had been in the hospital and had a pin in her left leg. Arnold went down the list and killed each one, cutting open the left leg looking for the pin. Unfortunately, Sarah wouldn't have had one as she did not get the pin until the T-800 blew up and a piece pierced her left causing damage to the bone. Not something they could easily explain in the movie without slowing the pace down. You are usually spot on catching faces of other actors, so was surprised you did not notice Lance Henrikson (the 2nd detective) or Michael Biehn (Reese), or Bill Paxton (rainbow mohawk punk). All three are in Aliens as well.
You will LOVE T2 and get much more insight into the reason for things still not clear.
All the Terminator films are worth watching for the story arch but for me T2 is the cherry on top.
T2 sucks.
@@Brian-qn7fn well, if you watch her eventual reaction, she did, in fact, love it (which is exactly what I said she would).
So, sucks in your opinion or not, my point was that she would love it & it was proven correct if you watch her reaction for T2 that was posted well after my original comments here.
She says, before signing off - “I think I liked this one (T2) more.” So I don’t know what to tell ya. 🤷♂️

Cameron mentioned in an interview after this premiered that he borrowed the idea from two screenplays Harlan Ellison wrote for the Outer Limits. Ellison sued and won, that's why it has the acknowledgement to his works at the end of the film. It was part of the settlement.
@johnkeenan1829 Demon with the glass hand! The soldier!
Wrong on multiple accounts. Cameron never said that and Ellison didn't win a lawsuit. Cameron was not aware of Ellison's work and the stories are not very similar. Ellison is an a-hole who likes to sue people. Cameron wanted to go to trial, but the producers made him settle. He is still pissed about it.
It's also very interesting regarding the Polaroid photo of Sara with the dog and the bandana. That is the picture that Reese has that causes him to fall in love with Sara and in the end you will notice the instant the picture was taken, Sara is thinking of her love for Reese ("in the hours we had we loved a lifetime's worth").
Better than Romeo and Juliet.😅😅
Yorie gonna LOVE T2! Arguably the greatest action sci-fi ever.
T2, great reaction. thinking about time paradox's can drive you crazy.
You have to remember that James Cameron was still making low budget B-movies at the time. This film was a bit of a step up but still only had a $6.5M budget. It was cool to see them get so much out of the small budget. And Arnold was pretty much a punchline to a joke back then, even though he'd starred in a couple of Conan films. It seemed like that's all the public would accept from him. No one expected to see him in a contemporary thriller. This film showcased his screen presence and he took off to star in a few more action films soon after, even though his accent and awkward acting style were still present. Ultimately this film made around $78M, which was a huge return on the investment. Seven years later the much fancier and colder sequel would cost over $100M. The "good guy" Michael Biehn would appear in Cameron's "Aliens." Cameron would eventually marry Linda Hamilton.
Lance Henriksen, was in Aliens too.
As was Bill Paxton, who played one of the punks at the beginning of the film.
I think the accent kinda adds to the Terminator though. It kinda rings of robotic voice synthesizer that hasn't quite nailed down human speech yet, but it's passable as a heavy accent. Also, I see people complain that Arnold blinks when a gun is fired, while Rober Patrick didn't, but I'm here to say that it's explicitly stated that the T1000 is a prototype, whereas the T800 model 101 (Arnold) is a production model. The T1000 might not have all the bugs worked out yet (in fact, comic lore says that SkyNet sent the T1000 as a last resort because the T1000 was dangerously smart and not quite finished), which could have caused some of it's less human-looking mannerisms. A Terminator that blinks and responds like a human would is a better infiltrator. Robert Patrick really nailed his performance though, along with Arnold

There were only 3 Sarah Conners in the phone book when she was looking at it in the bar. The terminator knew it was the right Sarah since she was the only one left.
Unless, of course, she had an unlisted number. Or the phone was in Ginger's name. Or she had no phone at all. I'm wondering how the terminator would ever know if he got the right one.
@@TheChapelGrove Reese said Skynet knew very little about Conners mother so I assume it was a gamble for them too
@@TheChapelGroveAs a machine, he would logically start with the phone book, because it’s the most accessible form of information and eliminate in ascending order until all known resources were exhausted. Not to mention, he could’ve done a simple search on her in the police cruiser computer near the beginning.
Well a second clue that he now had the right Sarah was that someone was protecting her. She must be important. Also the terminator may also know who kyle is.......
He didn't actually have to know. He would just kill the third one then start looking for other possible Sarah Connors that aren't easy to find. Why dig for unlisted numbers when you can just start with the listed ones first?
Also, if The Terminator knew that Reese was from the future, then he would know he had the correct Sarah Connor.
No greenscreen no cgi no Computer Effekts. That’s the 80s
They used to do blue screens. Exactly the same principle, but for celluloid films.

But there is also a great TV show, that sadly was canceled way to early : "Terminator : The Sarah Connor Chronicles" with Lena Headey and Summer Glau.
Also the other Game of Thrones collab with Khaleesi is really underrated imho. Of course not comparable to 1 and 2, but its still a quite good movie.
Hi Coby, cool it's awesome you've seen this sci-fi classic :) it's one of Arnie's best. Please react to Terminator 2 soon, it's the GOAT sequel! And, spoiler alert, Arnie is back! You're one of my favourite Popcorn Roulette reactors.
What I always loved was how Kyle wondered what Sarah was thinking of in that polaroid of her. He'd never find out that she was thinking of him in that photo this whole time.
I LOVED THIS video! You have to cover Terminator 2: Judgement Day. It's one of the greatest movies / sequels of all time. And check out Terminator 3 and Terminator Salvation -- they provide some interesting takes in the franchise.. but you can def skip Genisys and Dark Fate lmao.
Terminator 2 is a must watch, I was 16 when it was released, amazing film
Another classic from 1984 (besides Coby 😎) 🦾
Coby was born in 1984?
@@TacShooter Yes. She posted it last month. Look at her intro here, to her reaction to The Phantom Menace.
@@JedHead77 - Plus she actually said so early in this video.
It would have been wild if she was born 12 may 1984
The Terminator and Back to the Future made me love time travel films, but this one really opened the door to the concept of AI in sci-fi films. Great reaction from Coby, I'm sure we will all agree for her to watch Terminator 2. It was the long awaited sequel that really pays off.
I mean, AI had appeared in sci-fi films many times beforehand, maybe most famously (by 1984) in "2001: A Space Odyssey". Killer robots/androids appeared in "Westworld" in 1973. Killer AI from "Colossus: The Forbin Project" (1970), "Demon Seed" (1977) etc. years previously. Hell even "War Games" was before this (albeit only by a year).
_Maybe_ this made it a more _mainstream_ idea but the door was already wide open IMO.
@@anonymes2884 My point was that this film opened 'MY' eyes to the concept of AI, and because of my age this film resonated with me at the time. I wasn't old enough to appreciate some of those other films or had seen them at the time this film caught my attention.
Great movie (2 is even better), but the most shocking thing in this video is Coby was born in '84! I would have guessed at least 10 years younger.
in June. Same month as my birthday.
srsly thought she was genz.
@@zedwpdsame here, thought she was at least 10 years younger. My birthday happens to be in June also :-)
@@krono5elnow that’s a stretch
I wouldn’t.
I don't usually watch someone's Terminator reaction until their Terminator 2 reaction goes up... Because to me they are together a single story. A great story.
Great reaction to one of the classics. It's definitely worth watching part 2, but there's a major drop in quality after that
You will love Terminator 2:Judgment Day
Tunnel is near Bradbury bldg. same one that is in Gattica.
ah thanks !
Oh and blade runner. Most every tunnel you ever see that isn’t in the hills north of LA or north of SF 😊
Right, it’s the 2nd Street tunnel, which they enter on the Hill Street end. Diagonally across the block and almost due south is the Bradbury Building at 3rd and Broadway.
16:23: *”Come with me if you want to live.”*
Remember that for the sequel. 😎
There are (real) no sequels after that.
And I'll be back.
I saw this film when it was first released while I was in college. The story blew me away!
7:39
The person working in the gun/artillery store starred in Gremlins also in 1984.
So many react channels are thrown by the sudden lack of eyebrows on Arnie. Can't blame them all; the movie doesn't do enough to link the fireball to his change in appearance. Showing the fire on his face, or even a clearer view of his face when he's about to punch the windshield, would have helped.
Sweet baby Jesus... have you seen Tropic Thunder? There's a line in there meant for you.
After Arnold comes through the flames and jumps on the hood, they clearly show his face, with smoke coming off of it. And you can clearly see his eyebrows are gone.
I swear, the younger people are the more they need an explanation that water is wet...
love coby and her reaction videos.
8:38 "He doesn't even ask questions or want anything from her. He's just trying to kill Sarah Connor."
Of course. He's a Terminator. 😄
The music. OMG, it really takes me back... 😂
Okay, you definitely deserve a prize. I've seen at least 8 or 10 reactions to this movie, and I have NEVER seen anyone predict so many details - both large and small - beforehand.
Which made it that much more satisfying when you were finally surprised by something:
41:08 "He's not even blown up enough!!" 😂😂😂 You weren't wrong.
I'll add my comment to, I assume, every single other commenter on here when I say that you absolutely have to see Terminator 2. Every other sequel to this is completely optional, but T2 is great stuff. It's this movie, but with a big budget.
I look forward to your reaction to it.
