It's not just servos moving - which are normally silent. It's the servos RESISTING being moved! Which if you think about it - is even BETTER attention to detail!
It’s funny that the terminator’s cpu can be accessed with common tools, yet here I’m struggling to fix my Nintendo DS without the stupid tri tip screwdriver.
military equipment or very expensive machine are generally made to by fixed more easily , it only the cheap stuff that is made to not be fixed so you have to buy new one
I tried calling customer service to get a refund on my terminator, but they keep sending another back in time to try and kill me. Worst product ever, 0/10 😤😤.
I love how the reason the Terminator asked "was there a problem" at the end of the surgery when he is reactivated is because he noticed the Elapsed Time on his screen was 1:26, which was a lot longer than he was expecting. I didn't notice that until I reviewed this scene a couple years ago.
I just love the detail of her saying "it makes you a more efficient killer" and he agrees. She remembers him chasing her and he can't remember it at all. Because it wasn't him.
Exactly, such a good detail. But I also think think that the Terminator would still agree with Sarah even if he did remember chasing her in the first movie. It would simply be a statement of a fact that wouldn't bother the Terminator in any emotional way.
@@Nick__1409 You're right, it wouldn't bother him at all, just good that they reset his chip and makes him a bit emotional. Also she remembers how scary he was while chasing her, is why she brings up that efficient killer line.
It may start getting like the AI in certain video games, where they're supposed to be helping you and they're standing there saying "Ooh, look at the pretty clouds."
@GrapeSkoda As a religious person myself, i half agree. The other half is based upon fitra(human conscience nature). Some people call it "empathy". It's a general instinct that tells us which is right or wrong.
Since Terminator 2, the effects have got progressively worse. Compare the T-800 from the intro of T2, to the CGI T-800s from later sequels. T2 makes the later efforts look like cartoons in comparison. Because that's exactly what they are.
@@ThePathStrider at 4:35 his display shows 1 minute 26 seconds offline when it would normally take less than 10 seconds to flip a switch on the cpu chip.
It’s her PTSD acting out and PTSD’s aren’t exactly rational. She associate death and destruction with the T-800 model even though T-1000 is much deadlier. It’s a human thing.
lol If that happened, the T-800 would revert to it's basic standard programming and terminate any humans as the programming that the Resistance did on the CPU would of been wiped off.
4:30 Just noticed that the Terminator immediately knows there was an issue because of the time elapsed message on the top right of his HUD. He crosschecked the times and knew it shouldn't have taken so long to flip a switch.
@obzen9503 Usually when I timestamp I add a few seconds so you don't have to immediately figure out what the heck is going on within a few microseconds
@@dsdy1205 I counted the seconds after the terminators deactivation, and the machine was off-line for longer than what the elapsed time says in his HUD It’s actually more like 1 minute and 46 seconds. Since I believe it’s a 10 second time skip between the shot were John Connor picks up the CPU from the toolbox, and then, the very next shot, where he reinstalls the component back inside of the Terminator.
@floridahighwaypatrol7713 well, it ain't a perfect system. I personally work with embedded systems that are supposed to track time elapsed when the system is off, but they can be off by up to an hour if you leave them off for a whiles.
Her acting in this movie shouldve warranted her an Oscar. Seriously, she really does have the affect of someone whos suffered an insane shock and has been institutionalized. Amazing performance.
@@ericglasgo7828 bipolar disorder is about going through consecutive manic and depressive mood swings, and not personality splits, hearing voices or anything like that.
I can't believe he honestly let them remove his CPU, literally in direct conflict with his primary mission directive. Can't protect John if you're deactivated.
I think he actually in a way had no choice as it was suggested by John to do it, he has to listen to any instructions given to him by John even if it endangers the primary mission, such as saving Sara at the hospital and going back into town to try and stop her from killing Dyson later on in the film when they were safely near the Mexican border
Sarah Connor says he doesn't know what it's like to kill one of these things, but John somehow captured one and reprogrammed it AND sent it back to protect him. So I think the line to his mom saying that she should start listening to his leadership ideas was actually really powerful. This scene also explains why suddenly a machine learns to smile and joke around all of the sudden when he didn't up to this point.
@@darkzero79techincally he does know what it's to kill a Terminator he just hasn't done it yet. If none of this were true it would've been pointless to even protect him
It's funny how easy it was for them to remove and reattach this CPU. Even though CPU's in real life have a lot more steps in assembling and typically requires special tools and not these common ones.
I still find it amazing how different Sarah is from the first movie. She went from a meek, terrified woman to a total badass. She's a bit psychotic but that's understandable considering everything she's been through and knows. Linda Hamilton is incredible.
@@parisbeech2180 in my mind why did the state hospital staff go with them on mission ti see she was not crazy and super robots exist they could have helped in Terminator g the cop believe them
Yeah, THATS proper character development and brilliant acting. I miss the good old days when both male and female action heroes had proper development or they were established as veterans. Mary Sues like Dani Ramos are just so cringeworthy ("I vant to stend end feit!!" 🤮🤢).
@@TDKiller415 you couldn’t have said it any better. That’s why the franchise went to shit after the 2nd terminator. That and John Conor from 2 didn’t come back. They just went hella woke on the last one. Like cmon now. The women they put on the films was just a bad move. The build up to Sara Conor was just what made her even more badass and made it more believable.
This is a KEY SCENE that should never have been left out of the movie. This is the scene in which the Terminator is freed up to actually begin learning. It's a great scene, and key to John and the Terminator bonding.
I've always seen the cut where this was removed and I'm glad I did. I think this scene is unnecessary and makes the terminator look awfully vulnerable.
@@noisevector My gosh. Vulnerability is exactly the point of the whole scene. T800 was a likeable character and he totally deserves the buildup. I'm glad that scene exists at least, makes you think and has excellent acting.
@@cybergothika6906 Not that early in the movie I think. It makes him look weak instead of the great protector. Skipping the whole chip removal scene and the laughing scene doesn't make him a less likable character in any way. He still learns to be more human towards the end.
Funnily enough, it wasn't removed outside the US. In Europe (or at least here in the UK) the Director's cut was the only version shown on TV and available on video. It was only once they started creating DVDs and used the US theatrical cut as the master copy that these scenes went missing.
In a way, that scene gives a good lore to Dark Fate Sarrah, with her hate of Carl. And it gives Carl a higher praise for beeing able to bypass Skynet lock.
“Makes you a more efficient killer right?” “Correct” All terminator models ever: *has multiple opportunities to crush a throat or punch a hole through the heart. Chooses to throw targets around.
Fun fact: There is no mirror in this shot. Linda Hamilton is working on a special effects Arnold with it's back to the camera. Linda Hamilton's twin sister was with the real Arnold in the "mirror" across the shot. Also, Edward Furlong did not need a body double, because he was on meth at the time and was able to run fast enough to position himself between camera shots.
The way they shot the scene with the mirror without showing the camera is pretty ingenious. There is no mirror. That's a fake wall and the "mirror" is actually a hole into another part of the room that's just meant to look like the reflection. The real Arnold is on the other side, facing the camera, while the "Arnold" on our side is a dummy. The real John is on our side, facing the camera, while on the other side is a double, facing away so it's harder to tell it's not him. But what about Sarah? She's facing side-on, so you can see the side of her face on both sides of the mirror and you can tell it's her. The one on our side is Linda Hamilton. The one in the mirror is Linda Hamilton's IDENTICAL TWIN SISTER. The while setup is fucking rad.
What the fuck..? Seriously??? Holy cow that's elaborate for one shot. It is hard to hide cameras and crew in mirrors though, so I get why they had to do this.
@@Kriegsbeil5577 Also the special effects makeup is always added on top. It would be kinda tricky to make a 3 inch hole into Arnold's skull and make it look credible.
Yup, her sister Leslie. Leslie was also in the climactic scene in the steel plant where the T-1000 disguises itself as Sarah to fool John and the real Sarah tells him to get down. I guess whenever you see two Sarahs, one is Linda and one is Leslie. They got it to work amazingly. They also used _another_ set of identical twins for the "must be my lucky day" hospital guard.
1:24 that part is just incredible. Tells you so much about Skynet. Doesnt even trust the terminators thinking on their own as a group incase they disagree with Skynet. Not wonder it decided humanities fate in a microsecond. But then what else can you expect from a defence computer that became self-aware: everything is either an enemy or a potential enemy.
It was also proven why the T-1000 is a VERY limited model. Due to its ability to be nanites, always changing its processor meant that it was more active, thus "thinking freely."
There was a myth spreading around that Skynet wasn't able to tell the difference between the army and the Soviet army. Like, enemies and allies. It thought everyone was an enemy. Another part of that myth was that Skynet came to the conclusion that starting a war was a mistake, probably because it lost. I don't even think Skynet neccessarily had to be self-aware. It's a military application, the programming was probably just off. Self-awareness is not neccessary to have a system react like this.
Lore says that this was why Skynet didn't make more T-1000's - they went out read-write, and started to _enjoy_ what they were doing... Skynet was afraid of a coup.
I wonder how much of Michael Biehn's performance influenced Linda here. Sarah has all the hallmarks of Reese's traumatized personality; you can see it in her eyes when John's trying to talk her down. Steely and resolute when working, crazed expression and jerky movements when someone gets in her way. She's truly become Reese: a hardened warrior, desperate to do anything against things she's seen that nobody else could possibly understand, and amplified beyond him as a mother protecting her child. Linda at least deserved an Oscar nod for this fantastic job.
She didn't become Kyle Reese. Kyle was no where near as violent and mentally broken as Sarah is here. He was a lot more calm and rational with more self control. Sarah flies off the handle in almost every scene in T2.
@@SKBottom not saying he doesn't have PTSD just saying he had more of a grip on it. He would of had to in order to get the job done wether it's to protect Sarah or fight a war.
Its a good thing she didn't, would've put her in a vulnerable position to have the shit slapped out of her without consequence and the assailant have a standing ovation shortly after.
Holy shit.... I actually don't remember this scene... this is one of my favorite movies of all time and I've never seen this scene. NOW IT MAKES SENSE WHY T-800 WAS ABLE TO DEVELOP EMOTION AT THE END
3:54 That's Kyle coming out of John there. Snapping some sense into her like he did, something only he could understand and do. It'd be Natural to John though.
Loved seeing him put her in her place despite being her being the parent. Like YES you tell her. Let her know that your decisions are to help with what's to come and are more important then her personal feelings. 🤣🤣
People overuse the hell out of that word, but this is a film deserving of that title. It is about as good as sequels ever get, and a good film in its own right.
They brought in lindas twin for this scene. They have to learn to mirror each others movements for the mirror with no camera scene but john fucked it up and it got deleted. John fucked up
Respectfully, I disagree. There's small traces of it left in the film, such as when she breaks down crying in front of Dyson's family after realizing he's not responsible for Skynet at that point. Linda completely sold both sides of that whole scene, going from someone who's almost a Machine in her own mind, to having her sanity restored when she sees the genuine fear on her victim's face.
@@JohnDoe-tm9wz Okay. They explained why he did it in the film, and Arnold made the very idea of that funny, but whatever. I am just tired of the dark fate bashing. If you don't like the film, fine. But people need to stop being so nasty towards it.
@@JohnDoe-tm9wz Yeah, you have that right, as your lack of eloquence put so delicately. But no one has the right to criticize someone they don't know, and no one deserves to be demeaned because of their gender or nationality, which is what I constantly see people doing with this film. Aren't all human beings born with the same rights as everyone else?
4:33 when the Terminator was back online it showed on his screen that he was offline for 1 min and 26 seconds.. that's why he asked was there any problem.. thats some good detail in this movie👏
I noticed that detail, and I also noticed the detail when, later on during the chase, the T1000's actions in the helicopter causes the Terminator to drop one of the shells. After a lot of jostling around and evasion and evasive maneuvers and shooting back, the Terminator reaches right back to where the shell fell. No mere human would have remembered that detail. They *might* have remembered that they dropped it, but they wouldn't know exactly where.
yes but the dialogue and everthing else went on for 1 min 55 seconds - nice idea but they could of got this right but however not intrical to the story
Indeed. If you look closely at the CPU in the brief moment when Sarah looks at it, you can actually see the switch he mentioned on the chip, right below the metal tab, clearly visible. As such, it would have taken less than ten seconds to pull the chip out, flip the switch, and put it back in, which is another reason why he asked if there was a problem.
I've never really read the words on the Terminator's head's up display, but there seem to be some cool little details in there. For example, I've just realised that this one is Cyberdyne systems, series 800, model 101, version 2.4!
It was a really ingenious way to do the scene with practical effects and it still holds up. It reminds me if the hotel room eyeball scene from the first terminator though with that its pretty obviously a molded prosthetic.
Sarah: You're no good to us if you can't pass for human". Also Sarah: "Deglove your entire forearm and permanently expose your robot hand for them to see."
At 3:47 Sarah Connor: "You don't know what it's like to try to kill one of these things" John Connor: "Mom, let me tell you about my day at the Galleria"
@@generaloberstmoon9876 Yeah 3 is ok. 2 is definitely the best one hands down. I actually liked Salvation. Genesis is tolerable. Haven't seen Dark Fate yet.
I liked the weird terminator designs in Salvation, like the bike terminators and the eels. The rest of the sequels seem to just reuse the t-800 and liquid metal / morphing ability but slightly changed, Genisys and Dark Fate are guilty of that.
@@doudymac In Dark Flop, John Conner is murdered and the T-800 goes on to live a mediocre, ordinary life and he appears just a short time and the rest SUCKS. No John Conner, No Arnold Schwarzenegger, No SkyNet EVER EXISTED. They replaced John to some mexican girl, the T-800 to a SJW-1000, SkyNet to thing called, Legion. All that hard work to save John....for NOTHING....!😡 They'll never get my money! I'll never support (dark flop) that sorry excuse for a movie!! 😤
This scene is possibly the biggest reason why I'll only ever watch the director's cut. Why this 3 and a half minutes of footage was cut I'll never understand. It adds so much, letting you see just how much Sarah does not trust the T-800, but also how much she's willing to trust her son. And then later when Sarah is thinking to herself about how the terminator could be the best father figure John could have, her newfound trust in the terminator is so much more meaningful after seeing what all happened in the earlier garage scene.
because there was a risk of factory resetting the terminator by tinkering with his cpu....people would've questioned it.....Also if the terminator was supposed to have emotions then the future John Connor would've done that already
It's a good scene but it interrupts the pacing of the movie, and we already know that Sarah has intense distrust of the T800. And future John already reprogrammed the T800, so this is redundant.
@@Bowiiihowdy Truth is, it also creates a plot hole. You are telling me they disabled the T-800, removed its data drive somehow, rewrote its code and then reinstalled it...and somehow never knew it had a 'develops emotions' switch on its cpu. And important to note, *John* has also does this before since this already happened. It also just makes far more sense that they used its own cpu to rewrite to the data to begin with, which would have required the switch.
Linda Hamilton’s twin Leslie was also in this scene: She is Sarah’s mirror image in this scene. Sadly, Leslie passed away unexpectedly in 2020 at age 63. Leslie was a nurse. 😢
Love how Cameron saved on loads of digital effects and money in this scene by the fact of just simply using Linda's twin sister as if she is her mirror opposite-simple, saving on cash and did the job perfectly!! 👍👏👏
@@revolverocelot1380 I'd say they're diplomatic. They are robotic and emotionless in how they deliver words unless trying to change up (like the t-1000 does) will help them to infiltrate better. Think of them like soldiers. They are some of the most polite people you ever want to meet, but if they were in a way situation that same super polite soldier can put a bullet in the heads of an entire family.
That was a really deep line by John to his mom. How is he supposed to be this great military leader if his own mother won't listen to him? Damn, that's powerful.
He's a smart kid. Hes been well taught and looked after by Sarah, Enrique and co. I imagine John would've excelled in school if he attended. Remember, he was supposed to meet Kate Brewster for a make out sesh and he wanted to go to the arcade with his buddy. A total bro lol
Sick acting from the Connors, really shows the fragility, fury and paranoia from Sarah and the innocence, kindness, strength and leadership potential from John.

Resets the pin switch "erases all resistance programming" puts cpu back in with restored factory settings "terminate john connor" lol sara be like i told you not to trust IT !!!
If that was possible he would tell them cuz it's conflicts with his main mission "Defend John Conor" though to let them get to CPU conflicts with it either.
The chip was probably completely wiped clean before-hand, so even if resetting it erased the resistance programming, the T-800 would just end up having no mission and not know anything. He would basically be like a robot baby.
Killing people fast vs. throwing them around is a deliberate choice by its psychological warfare module. It evaluates the situation and if there is some SFX-budget left, he throws his opponents around instead of killing them. That's why the first movie was the best, not enough budget to weaken the villain. ;)
I love how, after this moment, the terminator ceases to be just a machine You can start hearing feeling, emotion in his voice, he starts smiling and making jokes
Exactly, his character is what gave T2 it's human compassion feel and helped make the franchise what it was. They totally disregarded all of that when they killed him at the beginning of Dark Fate. As if he never mattered
In John's defense, he turned out to be right. In Sarah's defense, you don't know what it's like to kill one of these things... at least in the first three movies.
That fade-out scene where the terminator stands guard and doesn't move from his task while the hours slide by. Remember Reese in the car telling younger Sara ..."and it absolutely will not stop, ever...until you are dead" There is so much to love about T2
This scene is great because you see how a childish teen starts tranforming into THE John Connor. Rational cold thinking, traits of a good leader. Great script.
I disagree. He's acting on emotion. Plus, him thinking that being a great leader when he's 30 means he should be trusted as such when he's 10. Not smart. Weird that Sarah falls for that one. Maybe she separately came around to thinkin it's not such a bad idea anyhow.
@@nthgth He is acting on emotion because he has come to see the Terminator as a friend, yeah, but he also makes some very good rational points there. Plainly speaking, everything he says it's true: Without the T-800 they don't stand a chance against the T-1000 and it's also the only proof they have of the future that's going to pass (it's literally how they convince Dyson to help them prevent Skynet's birth). Also, if not even his mother will listen to him, who will? That last line is what finally makes Sarah relent. Also, Sarah isn't really acting rationally at all there. She is merely trying to destroy the T-800 based on her own fear and resentment of the prior model that tried to kill her. But she has seen what the T-1000 is capable of at this point. Destroying the best ally they have against that more advanced model is just stupid, period. It's also important to consider that the rest of the movie does makes you understand how Jon could grow to become a good leader. He is compassionate but also crafty and a quick thinker.
He really starts on that path when he realizes how much his actions have consequences when he sics the terminator on a guy only for the terminator would try to kill the guy. He starts to get real and serious at that point.
This scene was way too important to have been deleted, I always wondered how a futuristic robot killing machine learned human emotions while becoming a Stepfather. They really, really needed to leave this scene in the theatrical release.
In the theatrical release they simply replaced the scene with a dialogue of the T-800 saying that he adapts to human behaviour because of the neural net processor. This extra scene was just made for some eye candy and to show how Sarah feels about the situation.
"Oh, no, we have a sick patient here, nurse. Prepare for OR, stat! Patient is... prepped. No one's ever attempted a double bypass brain transplant before. Now for the tricky part. Pliers!" "I don't that woman's ever been to the medical school." "Doctor, you've done it! Hannah! Janie's all better now."
Fantastic scene should have kept it in...I love how he asks "was there a problem" he knows that it should take few seconds to remove chip and re-install ot back...however John and Sarah had that little talk which took several minutes...when chip was re-installed he asks of there was a problem as re-installing it is a simple process....he diagnosed time when the chip was removed and reinstalled and discrepancy in time suggests that they had a problem....small things like this make Cameron a great director.
English uses "no" to answer affirmingly to a negative question. Maybe "da" is used for "correct" irrespective of whether the question is negative or not?
If anyone's wondering how the Terminator knew that more time had passed than expected, each Terminator has a built-in clock, or chronometer, which keeps running even if the main CPU is absent or disabled.
This brings me to a question , which I think I already know the answer to - in a battle between the Terminator and Commander Data, who would win? I guess Data, because his brain is so much more powerful and independent. His strength would at least give him a buffer to where he'd have enough time to figure out how to kill the terminator. I thought of Data because he has an internal chronometer as well, which figures into a couple of episodes
Because it doesn't make sense, future John reprogrammed it and while he had the chip out he would have notice the two modes and their functions along with the reset switch and would have done it himself. By that point in the war he would have an extreme understanding of their software and hardware. Plus why would the terminators have this function and not use it.
@@ifedhimspaghetti unless they're also built to be sociopathic and strictly obedient, which they should have been. Lots of people can think but don't have empathy
@Mike Driggs the fact that John Connor was killed makes the movie bad, terminator fans want a terminator movie where we see John Connor leading the human to victory during 2029 and the movie ends with humanity rebuilding itself
killing john connor like that was dumb. If they didn't want him in the film they could just say that he was living a life in another city far from his mother
Jesus, I’m surprised that this was taken out Really shows how much Sarah’s encounter with the first Terminator traumatized her to the core, and for good reason
Dev Sharma you can really see and feel ur age when this movie comes on TV. I just sit there and watch it like it was the first time as a kid. Omg im getting freaking old lmao

This scene gives so much context to everything after it....learning the high 5, the why do you cry, the smile when the T-800 picks up the mini gun....this was the Terminator learning human traits in real time. It also explains why the T-800 was able to defy John's orders at the end and sacrifice his continued existence. It chose to do what was best for John and his future.....
It is a good scene but all of those things still make sense without it. In this version they have to activate the terminators ability to learn but in the standard cut he just already has the ability.
3:54 "...so MOVE!" What power Linda Hamilton has in her voice. Perfect casting and an incredible character arc from the demure, feminine young woman she was at the start of the first movie. Bravo, Linda!
@@jam1531 No? In the theatrical cut, it is implied that they reset the switch. They just didn't show it on camera to save time. In the director's cut they just showed how they did it and what happened along the way. Both versions had young John reset the switch and both versions are canon.
I love how John is in this scene, stopping his Mom from destroying the Terminator. You can just tell how he speaks to his mother that he'll be a great leader. This is why I didn't watch the newest Terminator movie. 3:35
It's chilling when she said "You don't know what's like to try to kill one of this things" at 3:50. That's show Sarah still consumed by her traumatic experience from the first Terminator.
@@ArtofLunatik the original mission programming was likely completely erased by the resistance. The resistance just kept parts of the original programming, like the robot controllers, and all that. But the original mission directive code was wiped and re-written
uuuultra ✔️ I disagree that it “sucked”. The scene shows how Sarah is letting her hatred blind her. That said, her later attempt to murder Dyson essentially made the same point, and was obviously more critical to the story than this was.
In terms of why Sarah and John do this, believe me, James Cameron thought long and hard about it when he wrote this scene (as when he writes anything). It makes sense, both the switch existing and their decision to flip it off ‘read only’. The Terminators are advanced AI machines. There may have been occasions when Skynet sent them off on long missions and wanted them to be able to learn and adapt to their environment. Most of the time they only needed to follow their standard programming. Remember, adult John reprogrammed him before sending him back, but he probably could only limit this new code to include *’Always protect John Conner and do what he says’.* Everything else stayed the same. Remember the scene when child John starts yelling for help because Arnold won’t help rescue his mother ( _”She’s not a priority”_ ) and the two guys come over to help him and John, being a kid, tells Arnold to _”Grab these guys”._ After grabbing them Arnold then proceeds to try and terminate them, _”Of course, I’m a Terminator“._ John ordering him to help him rescue his mother gave the Terminator pause, he literally paused and thought about it for about 1.5 seconds, before proceeding, deciding that it conforms to his order to obey his commands without necessarily violating his order to protect his life. Then after making him promise not to kill anyone, Arnold still wounds them instead. John wanted to avoid this kind of behavior as much as possible and allowing him to learn would do that. And it would also make him learn to fit in better. Remember to that Sarah didn’t want to reset the switch, she just wanted to smash it and be done with him. This is why Cameron is such an exemplary filmmaker..
What you just said just proves why this scene had been cut. It makes no sense, if all they had to do was hit a switch then why didn't future John do it himself. Cameron even admit this in an interview that there was a simpler way to tell us how the terminator can learn. He was upset he had to cut the scene cause he liked the character aspect but he knew it wasn't needed.
Good points and well-presented. I also love this scene for a number of reasons. But I still say the switch doesn't make sense. Not only would Future John have already done that (and asked the question that yields info about it, as young John did), but why wouldn't that be controlled at the software level? What exactly is "read-only" here? Doesn't a CPU need to write in order to be of any use at all? I thought only memory and media are able to be read-only. (and those 2 are really the same thing)
@@nthgth CPU cant store data, so they need some way to store data. And you can modify data storage units like a book rather than a notebook, which the unit can change. And you don't want it to change the orders it received. Because it can decide that mission is impossible to complete\ and go awol. So future John wants the unit to find past himself as a priority, after the unit finds him in past he can take over and lead the unit. So its not that important if unit gets control over its decisions after it meets John in past.
The practical effects here were phenomenal and genius! Fun fact there is no mirror in this scene, they had Linda Hamilton's twin sister and a Arnold dummy to show the removal of the chip be more genuine.

Exactly, such a good detail. But I also think think that the Terminator would still agree with Sarah even if he did remember chasing her in the first movie. It would simply be a statement of a fact that wouldn't bother the Terminator in any emotional way.

It's incredible how clean and crisp this film looks even 30+ years later, and the effects really stand up even today.
Its the kind of movie that you get when all of the people involved in the production actually care about what they are making.
It's part of filming on the right material. It's why you can get (some) 4k movies of old films, without too much upscaling.
Thought the same
Since Terminator 2, the effects have got progressively worse. Compare the T-800 from the intro of T2, to the CGI T-800s from later sequels. T2 makes the later efforts look like cartoons in comparison. Because that's exactly what they are.

you can see the switch on the chip when they take it out
You pull the catridge out first, blow it 3 times real quick, then put it back into the slot.
Jumper switch, like on a mobo.
And if you fill the CPU cavity with liquid nitrogen you can overclock your terminator! Makes them buggy though, and who wants that..

Funnily enough, it wasn't removed outside the US. In Europe (or at least here in the UK) the Director's cut was the only version shown on TV and available on video. It was only once they started creating DVDs and used the US theatrical cut as the master copy that these scenes went missing.

Fun fact: There is no mirror in this shot. Linda Hamilton is working on a special effects Arnold with it's back to the camera. Linda Hamilton's twin sister was with the real Arnold in the "mirror" across the shot. Also, Edward Furlong did not need a body double, because he was on meth at the time and was able to run fast enough to position himself between camera shots.
I lost it at the Edward Furlong fun fact xD
This comment had a better twist than the Sixth Sense
Wait...
D Dixon no cgi here!
Hahahaha brilliant!
The way they shot the scene with the mirror without showing the camera is pretty ingenious. There is no mirror. That's a fake wall and the "mirror" is actually a hole into another part of the room that's just meant to look like the reflection. The real Arnold is on the other side, facing the camera, while the "Arnold" on our side is a dummy. The real John is on our side, facing the camera, while on the other side is a double, facing away so it's harder to tell it's not him. But what about Sarah? She's facing side-on, so you can see the side of her face on both sides of the mirror and you can tell it's her. The one on our side is Linda Hamilton. The one in the mirror is Linda Hamilton's IDENTICAL TWIN SISTER. The while setup is fucking rad.
What the fuck..? Seriously??? Holy cow that's elaborate for one shot. It is hard to hide cameras and crew in mirrors though, so I get why they had to do this.
@@Kriegsbeil5577 Also the special effects makeup is always added on top. It would be kinda tricky to make a 3 inch hole into Arnold's skull and make it look credible.
Yup, her sister Leslie. Leslie was also in the climactic scene in the steel plant where the T-1000 disguises itself as Sarah to fool John and the real Sarah tells him to get down. I guess whenever you see two Sarahs, one is Linda and one is Leslie.
They got it to work amazingly.
They also used _another_ set of identical twins for the "must be my lucky day" hospital guard.

1:24 that part is just incredible. Tells you so much about Skynet. Doesnt even trust the terminators thinking on their own as a group incase they disagree with Skynet. Not wonder it decided humanities fate in a microsecond. But then what else can you expect from a defence computer that became self-aware: everything is either an enemy or a potential enemy.
It was also proven why the T-1000 is a VERY limited model. Due to its ability to be nanites, always changing its processor meant that it was more active, thus "thinking freely."
@@ajdominguez1002 Is that in the T2 novel? Still stuck on the T1 novel.
There was a myth spreading around that Skynet wasn't able to tell the difference between the army and the Soviet army. Like, enemies and allies. It thought everyone was an enemy. Another part of that myth was that Skynet came to the conclusion that starting a war was a mistake, probably because it lost.
I don't even think Skynet neccessarily had to be self-aware. It's a military application, the programming was probably just off. Self-awareness is not neccessary to have a system react like this.

I wonder how much of Michael Biehn's performance influenced Linda here. Sarah has all the hallmarks of Reese's traumatized personality; you can see it in her eyes when John's trying to talk her down. Steely and resolute when working, crazed expression and jerky movements when someone gets in her way. She's truly become Reese: a hardened warrior, desperate to do anything against things she's seen that nobody else could possibly understand, and amplified beyond him as a mother protecting her child. Linda at least deserved an Oscar nod for this fantastic job.
In the director's cut there are like 3 scenes where kyle talks to her and Michael reprised the role. But they too were cute

Indeed. If you look closely at the CPU in the brief moment when Sarah looks at it, you can actually see the switch he mentioned on the chip, right below the metal tab, clearly visible. As such, it would have taken less than ten seconds to pull the chip out, flip the switch, and put it back in, which is another reason why he asked if there was a problem.

It adds so much, letting you see just how much Sarah does not trust the T-800, but also how much she's willing to trust her son. And then later when Sarah is thinking to herself about how the terminator could be the best father figure John could have, her newfound trust in the terminator is so much more meaningful after seeing what all happened in the earlier garage scene.
because there was a risk of factory resetting the terminator by tinkering with his cpu....people would've questioned it.....Also if the terminator was supposed to have emotions then the future John Connor would've done that already
It's a good scene but it interrupts the pacing of the movie, and we already know that Sarah has intense distrust of the T800. And future John already reprogrammed the T800, so this is redundant.

The chip was probably completely wiped clean before-hand, so even if resetting it erased the resistance programming, the T-800 would just end up having no mission and not know anything. He would basically be like a robot baby.

Killing people fast vs. throwing them around is a deliberate choice by its psychological warfare module. It evaluates the situation and if there is some SFX-budget left, he throws his opponents around instead of killing them. That's why the first movie was the best, not enough budget to weaken the villain. ;)

In John's defense, he turned out to be right. In Sarah's defense, you don't know what it's like to kill one of these things... at least in the first three movies.
His decisions are more important for the future then her personal feelings. So she definitely needed to start to let him take the lead with shit.
I’m sorry but Arnold holding that face perfectly at 3:42 shattered me lol
That fade-out scene where the terminator stands guard and doesn't move from his task while the hours slide by. Remember Reese in the car telling younger Sara ..."and it absolutely will not stop, ever...until you are dead" There is so much to love about T2
This scene is great because you see how a childish teen starts tranforming into THE John Connor.
Rational cold thinking, traits of a good leader.
Great script.
Traits of a machine.
I know now why you cry but it is something I can never do.
I disagree. He's acting on emotion. Plus, him thinking that being a great leader when he's 30 means he should be trusted as such when he's 10. Not smart.
Weird that Sarah falls for that one. Maybe she separately came around to thinkin it's not such a bad idea anyhow.
@@nthgth He is acting on emotion because he has come to see the Terminator as a friend, yeah, but he also makes some very good rational points there. Plainly speaking, everything he says it's true: Without the T-800 they don't stand a chance against the T-1000 and it's also the only proof they have of the future that's going to pass (it's literally how they convince Dyson to help them prevent Skynet's birth). Also, if not even his mother will listen to him, who will? That last line is what finally makes Sarah relent.
Also, Sarah isn't really acting rationally at all there. She is merely trying to destroy the T-800 based on her own fear and resentment of the prior model that tried to kill her. But she has seen what the T-1000 is capable of at this point. Destroying the best ally they have against that more advanced model is just stupid, period.
It's also important to consider that the rest of the movie does makes you understand how Jon could grow to become a good leader. He is compassionate but also crafty and a quick thinker.
He really starts on that path when he realizes how much his actions have consequences when he sics the terminator on a guy only for the terminator would try to kill the guy. He starts to get real and serious at that point.
This scene was way too important to have been deleted, I always wondered how a futuristic robot killing machine learned human emotions while becoming a Stepfather. They really, really needed to leave this scene in the theatrical release.
In the theatrical release they simply replaced the scene with a dialogue of the T-800 saying that he adapts to human behaviour because of the neural net processor. This extra scene was just made for some eye candy and to show how Sarah feels about the situation.
You’re *too important!*

Terminator says: "No"
Russian subs: "Да (Yes)"
You had one job.
English uses "no" to answer affirmingly to a negative question. Maybe "da" is used for "correct" irrespective of whether the question is negative or not?
If anyone's wondering how the Terminator knew that more time had passed than expected, each Terminator has a built-in clock, or chronometer, which keeps running even if the main CPU is absent or disabled.
Great detail, also Elapsed Time shown on the bootup does show that
This brings me to a question , which I think I already know the answer to - in a battle between the Terminator and Commander Data, who would win?
I guess Data, because his brain is so much more powerful and independent. His strength would at least give him a buffer to where he'd have enough time to figure out how to kill the terminator.
I thought of Data because he has an internal chronometer as well, which figures into a couple of episodes

This is actually a pretty important scene and it's incredibly well acted with great special effects. Why would you cut this scene out of the movie?
Because it doesn't make sense, future John reprogrammed it and while he had the chip out he would have notice the two modes and their functions along with the reset switch and would have done it himself. By that point in the war he would have an extreme understanding of their software and hardware. Plus why would the terminators have this function and not use it.

Isaac Shaun alright back to the cave for you
This scene gives so much context to everything after it....learning the high 5, the why do you cry, the smile when the T-800 picks up the mini gun....this was the Terminator learning human traits in real time. It also explains why the T-800 was able to defy John's orders at the end and sacrifice his continued existence. It chose to do what was best for John and his future.....
It is a good scene but all of those things still make sense without it. In this version they have to activate the terminators ability to learn but in the standard cut he just already has the ability.

In terms of why Sarah and John do this, believe me, James Cameron thought long and hard about it when he wrote this scene (as when he writes anything). It makes sense, both the switch existing and their decision to flip it off ‘read only’.
The Terminators are advanced AI machines. There may have been occasions when Skynet sent them off on long missions and wanted them to be able to learn and adapt to their environment. Most of the time they only needed to follow their standard programming.
Remember, adult John reprogrammed him before sending him back, but he probably could only limit this new code to include *’Always protect John Conner and do what he says’.* Everything else stayed the same.
Remember the scene when child John starts yelling for help because Arnold won’t help rescue his mother ( _”She’s not a priority”_ ) and the two guys come over to help him and John, being a kid, tells Arnold to _”Grab these guys”._ After grabbing them Arnold then proceeds to try and terminate them, _”Of course, I’m a Terminator“._
John ordering him to help him rescue his mother gave the Terminator pause, he literally paused and thought about it for about 1.5 seconds, before proceeding, deciding that it conforms to his order to obey his commands without necessarily violating his order to protect his life.
Then after making him promise not to kill anyone, Arnold still wounds them instead. John wanted to avoid this kind of behavior as much as possible and allowing him to learn would do that. And it would also make him learn to fit in better.
Remember to that Sarah didn’t want to reset the switch, she just wanted to smash it and be done with him.
This is why Cameron is such an exemplary filmmaker..
What you just said just proves why this scene had been cut. It makes no sense, if all they had to do was hit a switch then why didn't future John do it himself. Cameron even admit this in an interview that there was a simpler way to tell us how the terminator can learn. He was upset he had to cut the scene cause he liked the character aspect but he knew it wasn't needed.
@@ericglasgo7828 It makes sense, because you dont want it to go rouge. Just like skynet.
@@randomdude8202 that makes sense, too risky. I could even hear future John saying it
Good points and well-presented. I also love this scene for a number of reasons.
But I still say the switch doesn't make sense.
Not only would Future John have already done that (and asked the question that yields info about it, as young John did), but why wouldn't that be controlled at the software level?
What exactly is "read-only" here? Doesn't a CPU need to write in order to be of any use at all? I thought only memory and media are able to be read-only. (and those 2 are really the same thing)
@@nthgth CPU cant store data, so they need some way to store data. And you can modify data storage units like a book rather than a notebook, which the unit can change. And you don't want it to change the orders it received. Because it can decide that mission is impossible to complete\ and go awol. So future John wants the unit to find past himself as a priority, after the unit finds him in past he can take over and lead the unit. So its not that important if unit gets control over its decisions after it meets John in past.
The practical effects here were phenomenal and genius! Fun fact there is no mirror in this scene, they had Linda Hamilton's twin sister and a Arnold dummy to show the removal of the chip be more genuine.
I love the way Linda Hamilton and Edward Furlong interact in this movie. They really behave like mother and son.
