What Happened To Terminator Salvation?

- Опубликовано: 27 ноя 2024
- After the still entertaining but undeniably sillier Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, the Terminator franchise was ready for salvation. But what would be the next step? Arnold was fully engulfed in his political career; James Cameron would rather remake Piranha 2 than return; and per the usual for this franchise….no one even knows who owns the rights! This is What the F*** Happened to Terminator Salvation.

SERIES SYNOPSIS: Hollywood has had its fair share of historically troubled productions. Whether it was casting changes, actor deaths, fired directors, in-production rewrites, constant delays, budget cuts or studio edits, these films had every intention to be a blockbuster but were beset with unforeseen disasters. Sometimes huge hits, sometimes box office bombs. Either way, we have to ask: What Happened To This Horror Movie?

Before even watching this, you won't change my mind this is the best of the sequels after T2. Creatively and story wise. And it was the only film that had the balls to try something we hadn't seen before.
Number 3 for me as well. Still the only one that doesn’t rehash the basic plots of the first two.
T1 and T2 both tried things we hadn't seen before.
Couldn't agree more. Better than T3. Genysis and Dark Fate are absolute garbage
I completely agree with you brother
Indeed.
Of course topping T1 and T2 is a tall order uphill both ways to begin with.
But Salvation is solid and I concur, the better of the sequels by far.
Its a crime we never actually got a sequel
Salvation was the right path the franchise needed
Not remake again T1 and T2
100%
100%
True.
The 'sequel' conclusion was the comic series.
A low blow for Salvation. At least, it got an ending.
Because Christian Bale fighting on
Set that's why?😑
Exactly it was a sequel/prequel the only one by continuity going forward of setting lore things up that were only talked about in T1 and T2 but finally showing it on the big screen in motion
What a shame that no one wants to continue on from this you would think James Cameron would do the right thing to have already done something about this of continuing on from that but NOOOPE
But then again the Cameron of today society yeah I don't trust him.
I still don't understand the hate with the CGI Arnold T800. I think it still holds up today, especially for 2009 tech.
I think it's gets the hate because it was based of a younger looking Arnold. If the terminator looked rinkly and old it would look better and people would of been happier because it would of looked like the current day Arnold Schwarzenegger. Quite weird and intimidating when you think about it a Terminator that looks old.
Probably it was just unnecessary fan service. I think the Scene would have worked better with Roland Kickinger's real appearence as an "unfinished" T-800 Prototype
@@James-Fostera younger looking Arnold would be more intimidating than current one come on
@@James-Fosterwhy the hell would people want governator Arnold and not 1984 Arnold? Especially when you're going for a villain, you wouldn't want it to be uncle Bob
It was the fact they had to use CGI at all that killed it
This was the only film in the series that wasn’t just a rehash of the first two films. I appreciate it for at least trying some thing different.
This movie is worst big-budget no-story crap movie even worse than T3 at least T3 was not serious
I loved Salvation, I think it was the best sequel after terminator 2. At least they tried to bring us a future war! They made it about John Connor instead of Arnold Terminator.
i actually love salvation .. not thi sshit dark fart was ... getting married how stupid
i will not watch thi svideo to the end now
Loved TS too, T3 was too funny to be taken seriously. Plus it was fun to see a sequel not involving time travel
@@TheRogueMonkChill. Atleast that Video told about how it's Underrated.
Salvation is actually a prequel to the 1st Terminator.
1. T2: Judgement Day
2. The Terminator
3. Salvation
Everything else.
Anton Yelchin was awesome as a young Kyle Reese.
@@wstine79 Yes he was RIP gone way to soon
yeah he was! it was eerie how much of Kyle Reese he got down, I am sad that we lost him ;w; he was good in everything I have seen him play
May he R.I.P
@@wstine79 he was awesome in everything.
Played it so well damn
Salvation had the guts to actually take the audience into the bleak future post-apocalypse and show us the war that humanity was fighting against the machines. For that, it wins praise for me.
I also appreciated the practical effects work that went into the film. The T-600 was definitely a standout. And it was nice to see the T-1s form Terminator 3 back!
Even the T-800 at the end looked awesome!
I feel like I'm one of the few that likes this movie.
I liked it, but I found the terminator but still human but also sorta a teminator character to be kinda lame.
You’re not bro
More and More People Loving it it's Not only a "few".
@@Jffeeney3rdBut the T-800 looked badass.
The comment section is full of us that enjoyed it.
This film is waaaay underrated.
Salvation was way better than the two turds that came after.
Dark Fate isn’t bad. Haven’t rewatched it since seeing it in theaters but it’s solid. I wasn’t bored
I never seen Salvation or Genesis(I know it’s spelled weird)
truth
Exactly, they were abominations.
I enjoyed this one to be fair
Love this movie wished the ones after continued off if it instead of the trash we got . This was the last good terminator movie
This movie is really good. I loved it when I first seen it and I really hoped it would be followed up. We finally got the Future War! It's a shame it didn't do well enough because it kicks ass and the story was a fresh take avoiding time travel and giving us a heroic respectable John Connor. The hero we only heard stories of from Reese and the iconic flashbacks of 1 and 2. Salvation is much better than anything we got after. ❤
We got the future war? No, we got CGI bullshit in the desert.
Those who try and milk the cow... in hindsight, pot calling kettle.. I truly enjoy salvation. Sure there are some issues, but the cast went hard and it's beautifully shot. The atmosphere of hopelessness jumps out of about 90% of the movie.
Give us Salvation.
Release the McG
"Dark" cut.
This!!
My favorite terminator film after 1 and 2
As a life long terminator fan, I genuinely enjoyed this film. Maybe it was because I was playing a lot of fallout new Vegas at the time or maybe it was because we finally got a film in the future war and it wasn't just another re tread of the first film but I stand by it. I love this movie. Just wish terry Cruise played more than a corpse
Edit: I wish this had a trilogy.
Terminator: Salvation is BEST Terminator movie after T1 & T2.
I agree 👍🏾 🤖☠️
The 1st 15 minutes of Genesis was pretty awesome, then it went off the rails after Reese goes through time
Absolutely true!
@pwnranger3496 that first battle scene was epic
1-5 Rulez✊🏻!
Really enjoyed this one.
And I wish they had finished this trilogy, instead of rebooting again, with Genisys...
T3, Genisys and Dark Fate is pure trash, compared to Salvation. And a prime example, that including Arnold, doesn't automatically make a Terminator movie good.
T3 is way better than salvation.
Terminator 3 and Terminator Salvation are both good in there own ways but yeah Genisys and Dark Fate are both Hot Garbage
T3 is so much better than dark fate and genesys, while i like it i can understand why people dont but its not fair to lump it in with those horrendous films
@@jayceneal5273 agreed. While I didn't like salvation.. I wouldn't say it was downright terrible...unlike fate or genisys
Underrated and underappreciated...so many good concepts (the tower shot with the machine looking people looking down & Skynet being aware of John Connors destiny etc)
@@optimusphill6377 you do know the reason skynet was aware of it right salvation has the literally timeline lore biggest direct reference to T2 the hospital Sarah blabbed out about the baby daddy solder from the future 2029 Straight from Dr silverman mouth they definitely had it on computer record and then Unlike the other futures before why it didn't know about Reese it's because skynet became the internet this time around T3 ROTM so skynet was aware now about it's previous attempts at john and of it's other timeline incarnation.
T3/Salvation skynet : you Marcus you did what skynet has failed to do for so many years YOU KILLED JOHN CONNOR
And people called skynet knowing about John's father a plot hole this shows they really don't think about things of how storys go or how they connect and they call themselves fans of T2 lmao
MCG really did his terminator lore home work that's for sure.
Best use of “I’ll be back” since the first film. This movie slaps.
Look deeper into the Bale crack up; the lightning guy would purposely spoil shots he didn’t like by stepping into frame to “check the levels.” Cinematographers are known to similarly shake or bump the camera to make the footage they didn’t like unusable. Bale was protecting his and his fellow actors work.
Honestly, this is a masterpiece considering what came after.
I always liked Salvation and felt like I was always on an island when I said I dug the hell out of it. I wanted to see more and see the future war progress to the points we saw previously. I’m glad it’s finally getting the love it always deserved
I thinn salvation is the 3rd best. Action was great and at least ita not a repeat of t2.
👍👍 absolutely, a worthy addition to the franchise unlike last two excrements.
Salvation is actually worse than the other sequels but it doesnt have the "woke" baggage of the others. As far as just being a very bad action movie with no point
Salvation is it
I’ve been championing Salvation since it came out. Audiences are so damn fickle. As Cinderella once said, “Don’t know what you got till it’s gone.” 😂
Yelchin died in the most crazy way. He forgot to put his SUV in park when he got out to open his gate and the car crushed him. His friends found him after he failed to show up and went to look for him.
Apparently he didn't forget. Something was messed up in that model's gearbox and the manufacturer issued recalls before and after this freak accident.
Correct - is was a defective part which caused it
@@patanouketgersiflet9486 damn. That makes it even worse.
Although this terminator film wasn't that good, it, at least attempted to do something different and go a different direction than all of the previous films. It had so much potential, but it stumbled at the finishing line 😮
What was not good about this movie? It was more original than T2 😂
Its amazing how no matter what, even with CGI, Sam Worthington, plays a wooden Sam Worthington in every movie he's in.
The last 20 minutes were the best part of the whole film.. the fight w the T-800.
Agreed.
You mean the part that's in literally every Terminator movie?
@@clarkmichaels822yeah but the key difference is salvation was a respectable love latter to T1 and T2 especially T1 finals unlike all the rest of the series final battles dumpster fire garbage after that point that felt really soulless and dumb
T4 brings back man vs skinless machine literally something I've always wanted again since T1 as a final classic battle there just something very eerie and unsettling that is a skinless chasing after you
Ps and not just any men being chased but the centric character himself john Conner all while protecting his would be old man parallel reverse of Terminator 1 in continuity
This is a big reason why I still prefer salvation to the garbage destroying universe lore that came after
Heck to official all of this
The leg shot of the T 800 walking up the steps T1 direct reference love letter
The t800 using Kyle voice to get john T2 direct reference love letter
The freeze then liquid steeling the T800 T2 direct reference love letter
Marcus being hit in the heart with the concrete brick by the T800 T2 direct reference love letter
Marcus hitting the T800 with a steel rod to the face direct reference and love letter to T1
John getting the scar on his face by the T800 with the grabbing is a poetic come full circle reference to his mother end of T1
Salvation truly is the last logical continuity story film Since 1984 the Terminator
Oh and before you go with the it was just throwing people thing which in it's self is a call back love letter JUST REMEMBER T1 gingers apartment with her boyfriend vs T800.
And T2 T1000 and T800 did throw eatch other around as well.
Ya hypocrite fans always forget that sh#$ though don't ya all because of your biased hate.
Enough said.
I enjoyed Salvation. It was a breath of fresh air. I don't ignore it's quirks but the two following films were disasters. I'm glad we got Terminator salvation.
I miss Anton Yelchin. Gone too soon. He was getting in the rhythm to stardom
I was talking to my co-worker about terminator about 2 hours ago, and this shows up on my suggestions. Coincidence, I think not! Damn Skynet!
I lied and told my kid that Terminator is a trilogy and salvation is the last movie. T1 T2 TS
Salvation at least tried to do something different by setting itself in a post-apocalyptic world that didn't include time travel, but the story needed a lot more refinement before they went ahead with filming. They set Salvation in the new timeline established by T3 where Judgement Day happened in 2004, not 1997. They should have ignored the events of T3 and aligned this film with the events established by T1 and T2. There are other smaller details like the fact that large amounts of the film are set in daylight hours when Kyle Reese mentions in the first film that they moved around at night to avoid detection.
The central concept of this intended triology begun by Salvation seemed to be about John Connor's rise from prophecy maker to leader of the resistance who ultimately defeats Skynet. It could have been fascinating but things fell through and since then we have had two terrible films (Genysis and Dark Fate) which tried to reboot the franchise but both failed spectacularly. I think a carefully planned out future war film set when the Resistance finally defeats Skynet, with Kyle Reese and the reprogrammed T800 being sent back in time to protect Sarah and John Connor respectively, could be a money maker, although it seems that James Cameron intends to try another reboot (this time a complete one).
Terminator Salvation had a good idea it just wasn't put together very well
@@jamesmorant1406 same 👍
Solid movie 🎥
@joeylodes It's tough to follow the first two movies they we're so good
I feel like they had so much story built up that if they could put all the material they had into 1 movie then it would’ve been the best terminator movie in the series. I feel like it comes down to budget issues and getting the money to pull it off
You didn't like throwminators?
Loved the gritty aspect. The cast was really good. The script was decent...I felt the gigantic machines at the end were a little much and Arnold's CGI terminator to this day still looks goofy...I felt the movie got a bit messy in the 3rd act, but as a whole, I enjoyed this movie waaaay more than Rise and the following 2 films. It may be the last decent entry we ever see.
Gigantic machines ? The only gigantic machines I know was the T Harvestor which appeared in the middle of the film are you talking about the gigantic gun turrets when Marcus was going into skynet centeral? because if that's so It makes sense skynet would have something like that guarding it.
@JuilanXAnime3188 no...I'm mistaking the giant machines you're referring to in the middle...I've watched this film once and didn't remember what act they showed up. Regardless, just wasn't feeling some of the decisions on what they were facing at that point...felt a bit cartoonish. Just my opinion, but the film as a whole was pretty cool, plan to bingewatch the last 3 soon...it's been a minute
@@brandienunziati9496 oh ok so you are talking about the T harvestor gotcha yeah as much as I think it was cool that it was in the film the film could have done with out it even though I do appreciate new stuff in films.
You forgot to mention that the trailer for this movie reveaked a major plot twist.
The first 4 films follow a linear plot line and do follow on with each other. Gensys started off quite well till they managed to build a time machine in a sewer and suddenly it descends into techno babble. T3 has the best ending as well.
Exactly T1 to T4 there storys are literally connected in natural continuity if anyone is smart enough to listen and pay attention to the references and dates Salvation really is the last continuity film in the franchise since 1984 The Terminator.
And yes totally agree about T3 I was always wandering are we ever going to see skynet and how it took over and the nukes and boom T3 finally did it so I at least respect it for that.
It was 10X better than Dark Fart
No argument here.
Can't disagree. The Last Jedi was better than Dark Turd, and I loath TLJ.
Eh I liked dark fate more
I agree
Only T1, T2, and Salvation exist in my movie collection/memory. RIP to Anton 🙏🏽
I really enjoyed Salvation. It felt like it was a breath of fresh air for the franchise and the tie in game was awesome!
Woohoo underrated and also has on of THE best trailers ever.
Guys that hates that Movie doesn't understand Salvation at all and is not a fan at all of the Franchise. Don't listen to it. Listen to the real fans! More and More fans says that Salvation was "Criminally Underrated" "The last good Terminator Movie" or "Aged like Fine Wine". Yes it has it flaws but atleast it put trys something new and i didn't miss Arnold one single second. The Terminators looks Great and Terrifying. And the planned Trilogy would have ended the story, maybe Arnold would had come back later alongside Christian Bale who plays the best John Connor for me, that is what i wanted to see. But instead we got 2 reboots that sucked. What a Shame!
Making it pg13 was a mistake. Even if they released an unrated home version. Movie was mostly bland and boring.
It was far less boring than T3 and Stahls whiny bitch version of Connor.
A boob scene and a stabbing really didn’t impact the movie rating. I think 1 and 2 would potentially be PG-13 if released in 2024 if they cut down on any F-bombs to one.
@@stuartbagley2586 2 maybe. but 1? no way
I don’t understand the hate this film gets. It’s fantastic.
I was legitimately hyped for this movie and saw it with my best friend in high school. We LOVED it! Years later I thought it was kinda safe and it was a little boring in places but it's in my top 3 Terminator movies.
11:58 can't forgive you about taking this off, Big G
i love how marcus comes out of the crater of an explosion
I was working in film when this movie was in New Mexico. The sets were awesome!
I really liked Salvation. Especially the one shot of John Connor getting into the helicopter flying away, nuclear explosion and then crashing! Amazing cinema!
I dunno McG...I remember watching it and thinking that "A topless shot of Moon Bloodgood is exactly what this movie needs!"
Salvation was a great way to continue the terminator franchise from past to future war with a 3 part series that should finish the whole terminator story and bring it full circle. My only problem was that the 1st movie in the salvation trilogy was kinda slow and didn’t bring a lot. but from what I’ve heard the next 2 movies were going to be big and not hold back. Its sad seeing something get hated on that had so much potential going forward, it just deserved the chance that it never got
I think Salvation is actually pretty good. Christian Bale was the best John Connor since Edward in T2
Easily one of the best in the series. After 1 and 2. It lends to the story, and adds to the whole element of a future destruction by the Terminators😂❤
Another thing that happened the year Salvation came out was the cancellation of The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
That still hurts me 15 years later.
I actually really liked it. I mnea t plenty of room for improvement, but still very enjoyable
For me, best of the sequels. T1 & T2 was awesome. Salvation wasn’t another Terminator film - where the terminator goes back in time to change the past.
At least Salvation made the attempt to introduce terminators of the non shape shifting variety.
Great video! What’s the song at the end?
Believe by NEFFEX.
Terminator IV: Salvation Rulez✊🏻!
I love this movie. The only part i dont like about it is that John Conner basically relies on Batman gadgets for the second half of it. I always blamed Jonathan Nolan for that.
@@snoweverywhere what you mean the hacking? Your kidding right that was a part of john character from T2 just saying if that's what your referencing?.
Everyone seems to forget the trailer gave away the third act twist of the main character being a robot. That kills the tension when you are seeing it in the theater.
The SETS WERE AWESOME! (I don't remember the script at all, but the VISUALS WERE AWESOME!
I feel it is the best non- Cameron directed Terminator movie and it's a shame it didn't get at least one sequel
I still think I like T3 better as a terminator film but ever since seeing this in theaters as a kid Salvation is one of my favorite movies ever the dark gritty tone and the world from the resistance perspective is awesome
I actually love salvation. It's different, and I'm glad we finally get a movie about the "future war" I like T3 too but it felt like it tried to be too much like T2. Salvation is one of those movies that no one really talks about anymore. Underrated if you ask me. And way better than the two that came after it.
When it comes to the Terminator films, I have the first, T2 and Salvation on my shelves. If I come across the other titles as a (really) cheap bundle, the completist squirrel that I am will have no choice but to grab them but, I'm more than happy to keep it at these 3. I do try to only have films on my shelves that I intend to watch again.
The logic and lore inconsistencies killed it for me like:
1. T600 being huge and wielding minigun, there is almost no civilians there, if those are first attempts on infiltrators, then how people would mistaken them for humans?
2. 3 story high Harvester being silent until attacking the gas stations also doesn't make any sense
3. I feel that the magnetic mine field also is just a plot device, they hoped that skynet would just wonder around there and lost some units and not notice it and then focus new attack and adapt to the situation?
And side note, the original bad ending would be better, and maybe open franchise to more "what if" scenarios then just basic T1 or T2 variants, something what comicbooks made.
Worthingtons role wasn't 'ironic' - he came onboard after Cameron's recommendation.
This is a dark, futuristic action movie heart with great production value and acting. You got Michael freaking IRONSIDES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think they tried to cram tooòoooo much into this movie.
The end fight with the T800 is bad just bad. It kind of kills the movie because the story does beg for more hand to hand terminator action.
You want to see John Connor do something that maybe echos what Sarah goes through in the first film, but instead you get Stay Puffed Arnold Man and it's just so unbelievable and not convincing.
As bad as Genysis is, there are a few interesting ideas in it, which retooled, still hold promise. But it requires skilled writing.
I had no idea it garnered a cult following and fanbase but I’m happy to hear it! I enjoyed Salvation and never understood the idea that this was some giant failure.
Am i the only one that puts this ahead of all others in the series? Huge Bale fan so maybe I'm a lil biased.. Connor zapping/banging Worthington's heart screaming "C'MON!" was a 10
This is what every fan wanted to see after t2. We wanted to see the war with the machines not just the "how the war started story" again and again. This movie could have spawned a good couple of sequels.
The Director's Cut is even better. This, T2: Battle Across Time and Terminator Resistance are the best follow-ups to Terminator 2. Anton Yelchin also appeared in JJ Abrams' Star Trek. The T600 that attacks Kyle, Star and Marcus and the T800 endoskeleton that fights John and Marcus were both portrayed via motion capture by 6'7 stunt performer Brian Steele
I really wish we would’ve gotten that trilogy.
Same thing that happened to Solo: something that should’ve been a concise standalone that just covers the story points we’d want to see that some studio executives thought could be stretched out to a whole series instead
I liked salvation from the first time I saw it. Getting to see judgement day at the end of part 3 and then seeing life post judgement day in salvation was awesome and didn't feel over the top.
I remember walking out of the theatre thinking "that was awesome!" I don't get the negative reviews of this film and I hadn't gotten that same feeling with T3 or Genysis... Dark Fate was okay but this was very good.
I remember watching the trailer for this one, loved it. The movie is for sure the best after T1 & T2!
The books that centered around the movie are good too. I really wish they kept this world going.
This had every reason to be a truly great movie
The trailer featuring NIN was just too damn good. It couldn't live up to it.
Don’t forget the trailer for Terminator Salvation was amazing but also spoiled the biggest plot twist. I remember being excited about it but also being disappointed that the movie lacked any other major moments. Can’t help but feel it would be regarded better if not for the trailer.
T2, Terminator, Salvation. The other 3 don’t even belong in the same discussion.
Terminator Salvation was a good movie with great cast, good sound effects and much better than anything that came after it
Salvation rocked.
Eliminating a topless shot of Moon Bloodgood is NEVER a good idea.
I was listening to KROQ when he called in and apologized for it! It was right before I had class. Good times
the main problems with Salvation are the PG-13 rating, Bale's Batman voice and the movie being set in the T3 timeline, which just forced Skynet back into existence after T2's hopeful ending.
TSCC and Dark Fate are still my preferred T2 sequels
Stan's the man ❤
Aside from the original 2 films, this is by far my favorite of the series. Ever since i heard Nine Inch Nail's "The Day the World Went Away" for the trailer i was hooked.
It is massively underrated. Linda Hamilton is obviously a hypocrit. And for Arnie to call it bad, then go on to star in the bottom 2 films in the franchise, speaks volumes. I don't dislike Genysis or Dark Fate. They're just nowhere near as good as Salvation or the first 3
What we expected out of Terminator Salvation was Terminator Resistance the movie, but instead we got a movie with little to no actual conflict, a bad plot, and underwritten characters.
I liked salvation and nothings changing my mind the fact it’s set during the war we only had heard of for three films made it exciting. All they did after Salvation was try and literally retread the first two movies and destroyed itself
You'll be surprised how T-Salvation comic concluded this T3-post alt timeline.
At least it got a conclusion in another form/
I used to dislike Terminator Salvation, but I have to be honest and say that everytime I watch it now, the movie is better than I remembered.
I loved the Salvation film! We finally got to see the world after the bombs dropped!
Terminator Salvation is the only terminator in the franchise so different but very amazingly well made
The one that had so much potential by showing what's happening in the future, kinda fell flat but still enjoyable.
