I just realized how poetic it is that Miles’ son, the clearest sign of Miles’ humanity, is what saves him (twice, first with the RC car). He may have led Skynet into reality, but it wasn’t out of bad intent, or a rejection of the things that make us human. He was just a normal guy, and that’s what Sarah recognizes that makes her spare him
Man, id be ok if Mootal and Morc just covered classic films going forward. These Forge’s are great! I made my own personal list of films that I want to own. Some of them I’ve not seen yet.
4:29:00 The reason the T-1000 has the fourth arm is probably used for the helicopter collective. To pilot a helicopter you need two feet for Yaw control, one hand for roll/pitch control, and another hand for throttle control. I assume it was a driving reason behind the head tracking feature of the cobra and apache.
The Terminator was finally destroyed with a vat of molten PCP. The 2000 'Ultimate' DVD release contains the theatrical cut, the 15-minute longer Special Edition cut, and the Extended cut, which also contains the alternate ending definitively changing the future to one where Skynet never happens. It is also included in the Skynet Edition Bluray, apparently. Apparently Cameron called the Special Edition thus rather than as a Director's Cut, because he considered the theatrical definitive.
Terminator 2 is technically the first movie I ever saw. As my parents went to a drive in movie to see it when I was 9 months old. The first time I remember actually watching it though I was 6. To this day it's still my favorite movie, and it's the reason Arnie was my favorite actor to this day. I've actually never seen T1 all the way through, because I'm so used to seeing Arnie as the good guy. That my brain just goes "Nah I'm good" when I see him as a villain.
This was the first rated R movie I saw in the theater, and I'll never forget it. It's one of those movies that i look back on and am so blinded by my nostalgic love for it that I can't see anything wrong with it.... thus it was funny listening to ya'll break it down and bring up the occasional issue because the 11 year old in my head was sticking his fingers in his ears and going, "lalalalalala, I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"
PS, any dude that can sit through this and isn't a bit weepy at the thumbs up bit, we can't be friends. "I know now why you cry, but it is something I could never do" .... ... 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Whenever folks ask my me favorite film it’s always tossup between terminator 2 and Empire Strikes Back. Terminator 2 is a fantastic example of how you do a sequel. Sure, there are inconsistencies with the time travel elements and elements with the first movie. But the character work in it is so good and it’s a film that doesn’t waste your time. Every line and moment has a point. It’s a film that really showed why James Cameron at his height was a phenomenal director. And why I will forever despise the sequels. Though salvation could have been good if it was better written. All in all, far as I am concerned. Terminator is a duo-logy.
Tje Ending Marc talks about is on a bluRay that came out in Aus 2 years ago. I will will try to find what the version is called, I have it, just packed away.
I've always been unsatisfied with the deleted scene where Sarah almost smashes the 2nd Terminator's CPU. It's the primary reason I prefer the theatrical cut. Most of the other deleted scenes I like and I think they add some more color to the film that is welcome if unnecessary. 1, I find it hard to believe that future John wouldn't have set him to learn before sending him back. 2, I think the Terminator has already shown signs of learning before the switch in that scene. He definitely learns in more obvious ways after that point, but I think it's justifiable to say his learning would be slow at first and increase exponentially as he interacted with humans more. I always prefer the version of the story where he's constantly learning from the very beginning. The only other deleted scenes I'm not sure about are the ones where the T-1000 is malfunctioning significantly towards the end. I think it takes away from the anxiety at the end if he's really starting to come apart at the seams because it means if they could have just gotten away from the foundry, maybe they could have outlasted him at that point.

"I'll be terminator, too..."
I did want to become a Dinosaur after watching Jurassic Park when I was 6.

One hour in, going to watch the film once home. Thanks all for talking about good stuffs
The T-1000's highest probability of success is to take the form of PCP and wait for John to make contact.
Love these reviews!

I first saw this movie on a date. The T1000's day went better than my date. Still great film, so not a total loss.

There are many videos of people spinning a lever action and firing it for competitions the way the T-800 does it.

Arnie knew where John lived because he'd been sent by John: he was just told the rough address (at least the neighbourhood) before being sent.
