      It's super cool, but I don't understand how someone's father could be alive in a time when his son was leading him, then die in the past? How did his dad exist in the future if he died? Maybe I just suck at understanding time travel.

      @@WhiteOutify Time travel is quite difficult to understand especially depending on the rules a certain movie uses. But the way I understand it is it's a chicken and the egg situation. Kyle being the chicken and the egg. It's like in the flash comics. Eobard Thawne (the reverse flash) is from the future and he idolizes the flash on an obsessive level. He wanted to be the flash so badly that he replicated the event that created the flash and gave him speed. When he travels to the past to tell the flash that he'll carry on his legacy he accidentally discovers in the flash museum that not only is he destined to become the reverse flash and be the flash's greatest enemy, but that he's the only one the flash had to kill in order to stop. So if I understand it right, it's what's called a "predestination paradox". A time loop. By John sending Kyle back, John is responsible for his own existence. And there's never a timeline where this doesn't happen which makes it a fixed point in time. Most of my time travel knowledge is from flash media so I may have some things wrong but it seems like the terminator more or less follow the same rules.

    Fun fact: When pitching the film to producers, Lance Henriksen was sent to show them what the terminator would be like, so he dressed up as the Terminator, walked into the producer's office, sat down and just stared at the producer, before leaving. He was trying to give off a threatening presence. Later when James Cameron recommended Lance for the role the producer said "anyone but him". Also, Lance later realized this plan could've went way worse after learning the producer was a champion boxer.

    The scene of the Terminator in the police station is truly striking because it's the best scene depicting how unstoppable he is. Sarah and Kyle are for the most part two unarmed people just running from the Terminator. But then it seems like they are safe in a station filled with dozens of guys armed with pistols, shotguns, and even automatic rifles, in any other slasher film they'd be safe, but the Terminator literally just walks in and effortlessly mows them all down without even takaing noticeable damage.
    Combine that with the music and it's truyl a chilling scene.

    I love that in the behind the scenes when Arnold was doing his fire arms training he spoke at length to his teacher about how a machine would handle each weapon. It really shows in police station massacre when he is effortlessly duel wielding two guns that should require you to two hand and shoulder press them. Add this to his movements throughout the movie and he sells the calculated, unstoppable killing machine that he’s playing.
    Also fun fact the sound design gets messed up during that massacre as when the terminator clearly fires the pump action spaz shotgun the sound used is for his assault rifle firing off a burst shot.

      At least the the second one. I don't give a crap about the others but Judgment Day is my favorite. Sarah O'Connor finally becomes the iconic badass we all know her as instead of this whiney brat that "can't even balance my checkbook". Sure it's more action with the damn mini gun, and sure John limits the kills. But, still a TON of horror elements. The t2 murders John's step family including the dog (which is always horror unless it's John Wick 😂) and "scream" style impersonating the voices just like this one. The creepy orderly in the insane asylum, the vision of the future, all the cat and mouse at the end and I LOVED how the melting T2 turned into the screaming faces of everyone he had "been". It's at LEAST as horror adjacent as Aliens 2 which is also more action than the original thriller.

      The beginning of the movie starts out like a slasher movie then it becomes an action movie by the middle and end. I would still classify it as horror-adjacent though would like to see a kill count one day just so we can see James talk about Stallone

    The behind the scenes of these early Cameron projects really reinforces the idea of movie magic. The use of miniatures and camera tricks and whatnot is just astounding. I rewound one of the early shots with a power loader in Aliens over and over again because it looks TOO real. Incredible stuff.

    • @colinbaldwin313
      @colinbaldwin313 5 месяцев назад

      The special effects were just as good in Cameron's days of more limited resources as they are in the present day, when he has unlimited resources, uses them to craft elaborate worlds, and doesn't have any mental resources left over for an interesting, engaging story.

  • @JerichoMPH
    @JerichoMPH 6 месяцев назад +11

    I'm impressed with all the information about the movie. One interesting fact I found out about was that The Terminator was "inspired" by several works of the late sci-fi author Harlan Ellison, namely the Outer Limits episodes "Soldier" and "Demon With the Glass Hand" . There's a massive controversy about it but if memory serves correctly, it was settled out of court in turn for some pay and acknowledgment in future prints which is why he's mentioned at the credits in later prints of the film. Cameron went to admit that having to give in to the lawsuit instead of fight it was one of his biggest regrets but was forced to do it since he wasn't a big name at the time and Orion Pictures said that if he had fought the suit and lost, the payment that Ellison wanted was going to come out of Cameron's own pocket.

    • @devilmikey00
      @devilmikey00 6 месяцев назад

      I will say, having seen Soldier before, there are some striking similarities to some scenes. The interrogation scene in the police station especially. While it's pretty clear Cameron borrowed some stuff from those episodes, he changed more than enough and mixed up those elements into a very different thing. Like Demon With The Glass Hand is about a robot from the future fighting in the past but besides that? It seems to have little to do with the Terminator judging by the plot synopsis. I suppose if you smushed those two together and REALLY squinted you MIGHT have an argument but it's pretty damn weak.
      It reminds me of when people say Tarantino ripped off a Hong Kong movie called City on Fire. Which sounds true if you just read it on paper but if you actually watch City on Fire? The only thing similar to Reservoir Dogs is the last 10 minutes. RD takes the last 10 minutes and blows up the basic concept into a full movie. Besides the broad strokes of those last 10 minutes, the movies aren't really similar at all.
      I can see why Cameron was sad about not fighting seeing as any reasonable judge would have laughed Ellison out of the room.

    There aren't words to explain how impactful this movie was or how much it caused me to get into horror. It started with apocalypse movies that aren't 100% horror and slowly it moved into slashers and campy horror. I absolutely love these movies. Terminator: Dark Fate wasn't great but it gave us more Linda Hamilton as Sarah Connor, and that's 1000% okay with me
