Robert Patrick gets a lot of credit for how menacing he is, but not much is mentioned of how well he sells the original intent of the first part of the movie. It's extremely clear that Cameron's idea was for it to seem that the Terminator is still the bad guy and Robert Patrick is another soldier sent back as a protector. Until it got to this scene. Sadly the studio let everything loose in the trailers. Watch him in the Galleria questioning the kids. He acts perfectly human for the few seconds he speaks with people then you see that underlying cunning, machine side of him resurface as he turns away, until he gets to another person to ask and Boom, he's human again. Watch him ask the girls, turn, ask John's friend, turn. He's selling himself as both a human AND a machine right under our noses. Robert Patrick did so good along with everyone else in this movie.
That's actually the beauty of this film! Robert Patrick doesn't look like the bad guy. When he kills the cop, you don't actually see the blade going through you think it's a punch. And then in this scene John is escaping from the t-1000... but the suspense music starts when he sees Arnold. Cameron is a genius! This is what the film industry is lacking today. In the first film, you know Arnold is the bad guy, but Linda Hamilton doesn't know Michael Biehn is the good guy!! This 2 films were perfectly executed.
@@tommymoore4219 But is it actually the same guy? It looks a lot like him, but in the sequel, the guy has no speaking role and thus no name credit (that I could find). So- are the two guys the same actor?
So would T1000 really stab him in front of everyone in the arcade, and make a big scene- sure, then everyone would know his identity, and he'll be in prison, he would try and entice him, into a secluded place, before stabbing him to death.
@@pauljohnson6019 T-1000 would have killed him on the spot dude. It was concerned only with his immediate death, and the cops couldn't have subdued T-1000 even if they tried. Not even the army could have.
Well technically I know it's "The Galleria" but I'm pretty sure they were called arcades informally. I could be wrong though. Being as I'm about to turn 30 maybe senility has hit me sooner than I thought!
I believe they mean the Sherman Oaks Galleria, which was, and as far as I know, still is, a shopping mall. I assume there was an arcade there in those days.
I love the subtle foreshadowing of how the T-1000 looks at the silver mannequin head with a puzzled expression. Just a few moments later we would see the T-1000 in its true silver liquid metal form.
The guy with the camera at 4:15 is William Wisher Jr, who wrote additional dialog for this movie. He also had a cameo in the original Terminator movie as the 1L19 cop. (The cop who gets his head slammed against the police car door by the Terminator)
I will _never_ forget that first time I watched this masterpiece on my screen, on the couch, at my grandmother's, with literally nobody to bother me. I don't care how many Terminator movies they make, I don't care how many sequels they make, I don't care how much they bend over backwards to retcon the story, but they won't match the first two films. You can't recapture magic like this, unless you want to fail.
The Terminator series came from someone having ideas in sequence. "What if AI takes over in the future?" "What if it mass produces robots using automation to kill us all?" "What if one guy turns the tide and they send a robot back in time to kill his mom before he's born?" Those are cool, and totally feasible science fiction concepts. There's no surface level politics. There's no obvious allegory. Just "Hey this would be cool, we're going to get people who can write cool things to make it into a feasible script, which we will then bring to the big screen using competent actors and direction." It's not a secret formula. It's not something lost to time. They just don't do it because they don't care. International box office. Subscription model. I see what now what elderly dudes complain about; everything is getting worse all the time!
Arcade machines I used to play those when I was a kid and I miss the old days when things were simple! Movies were magic back then now there is nothing!
That moment at 4:05 is amazing foreshadowing; at this moment we only saw the T1000 with metal regeneration on his chest, yet even it is confused by his doppelgänger.
Man I wish I experienced that. I remember seeing The Dark Knight in the theaters and realizing it completely blew away my massive expectations and how wild that was. I imagine this was the same feeling. Before everyone jumps all over me, I'm not actually comparing the 2 movies, only the hype surrounding both (in totally different ways) and the satisfaction of realizing something has actually surpassed that hype. Terminator 2 is probably the best action movie of all time, so I mean no disrespect haha
Few movies are perfect the way Terminator 2 is. Just above everything in it stands to the test of time, without breaking a sweat. Some of it _surpasses_ what the cinema of today, with all the bells and whistles we have collectively invented and seemingly perfected, has to offer. The way it simultaneously shows the society of the time in a manner that evokes some nostalgia and good memories, yet manages to portray fictional fantastic events that still suspend disbelief watching the movie today. Brings me hope to know one can tell a story through the cinematic medium so well, without worrying someone may cringe looking at it 30 years later.
@0:45 Nice and mostly unknown trivia: while John is playing Missile Command, his friend is playing the Aliens arcade game by Konami! 😄 Edward Furlong mentioned it during a Q&A panel (you can barely see an "A" on the side and the green second player stick), otherwise I don't think I would've ever noticed it... he said he was bummed he had to play this old Eighties game and asked Jim Cameron to play Aliens instead - of course he was missing the symbolic meaning of the scene (in Missile Command your job is stopping ballistic missiles... it ties to the nuclear war theme of T2).
From 2:36 to about 3:00, you knew John was pretty much dead. First, the T-800 approaches him with his shotgun, preparing to shoot him. Then, the T-1000 comes around from the other direction and takes aim with his gun. How would John possibly escape death here? Plot twist a second later...
actually no, it was obvious it was to fake-out the public his shotgun was aiming at the T-1000 coming around the corner, now if only the movie established 'how' he knew that would be nice!
4:06 that look at the mannequin is hilarious. Pulls off "scanning and assessing possible threat of rival T1000" really well with his facial expression alone.
3:52:T-1000" come into my shop, i insist, i'm having a sale." terminator:"well if you insist...but i can't get credit" 4:01:"no credit? out the window. bye"
2:40 to 3:00 John's really in trouble now. Make that double-trouble. Who's going to save him now? 3:01 "Get down!" The moment everything changed. I saw the first Terminator movie before I saw this one and automatically assumed that the T-800 was out to kill John. But, there was something about the T-1000 that I didn't trust, either. I was wondering what "protector" was sent back to save him since it seemed that both Terminators were on the same mission. I had *NO* idea that John's protector would turn out to be the same T-800 who was originally trying to kill his mother, Sarah, in the first film. I don't mean exactly the same T-800, but one that looks identical to it.
Hollywood turned Robert Patrick into a real life machine. Dude can outrun dirt bikes, shoot a 9mm like a automatic uzi and run effortlessly without facial change
Robert Patrick had to learn how to run basically holding his breath so as to not look like he was panting like a real person would while exerting energy.
At 0:40 a Honda VTR250 is visible; maybe not noteworthy to most but something about those 90’s colors screams nostalgic seeing it now. What a time life was back then
I’ve always wanted to ask some who was in the theater when T2 originally came out in 1991, was the scene where the Terminator and the T-1000 meet played up as a twist for the audience and was it a shock to see the villain from the first become the protector in the second?
When John sees the T-1000 looking for him at the arcade I bet John probably thinks that the police found out about him stealing that $300 using the ATM and now they've come to arrest him for it. If that were the case it wouldn't be the first time as when the T-1000 looks John up on the police car's computer it shows that John has an arrest record. John's already been arrested for trespassing, shoplifting, disturbing the peace and vandalism. John has been behaving like this because he's been acting out ever since Sarah was committed and being told by the authorities that everything Sarah lead him to believe was all a lie.
Reminds me of the episode of Seinfeld where there was a serial killer who got lose from the cop car and they kept saying on the news how he was a "very good tipper". It's like T-1000 here. He's a stone cold killing machine, but he's "very polite".
You could never convince me the T-1000 wasn’t a real person. Robert Patrick was so convincing I forgot he was a machine when he spoke to everyone about looking for Jhon
Nikki Cox who's one of the girls that Robert Patrick is talking to in the car and said he was going to the galleria is supposed to be Kate Brewster who's played by Claire Danes in T3 and Bryce Dallas Howard in TS.
The movie takes place in 1995, so my theory always was that the police and public arent fully noticing Terminator and T-1000 wrecking havoc all over LA because everyone is fixated on the OJ trial on TV that is currently taking place at that point in time.
Of course it wasn’t going to happen, but Jesus this robot nearly shot a kid around a bunch of other kids in an arcade This movie is a great action flick but I don’t think the initial suspense gets enough credit… this movie was terrifying in its first viewing
This whole chase could have been avoided if Tim would have mislead the T1000 from the get go as soon as he showed him the pic. By saying he didnt know him the t100 kept looking in the arcade.
0:49 What's with the Atari 2600 style graphics? This movie was released in 1991, the year the Super Nintendo was released. And even the Sega Genesis had already been out for like 2 years by this point. Plus the movie's set in 1995, which was the year the original PlayStation was released. That arcade couldn't have games with updated graphics?
I just hope there was someone in the theater who had not seen the trailer and was thinking "I sure hope that dude from the future who beat the cop up and stole his clothes gets to John before Schwarzenegger does!"
I believe people thought when they first saw this movie, Arnold was going to be the bad Terminator again. Then, he said, get down and it was a different story.
John's friend gets points for having his back, but I would have been like "yeah he left about 5 minutes ago. Said he's going to the park" or something lol
The T1000 would be able to detect his increased heartrate, sweating, and nervous tics. Basically, the longer he drew out the convo, the more the T1000 would be able to see through his lies. Short and sweet was good enough.
Back in the day I know previews didn't give too much away. So can anyone tell me if this was a big reveal when it turned out the T800 was protecting John? Or did the audience already expect it?
Hello. If you still want to know, it was all revealed in the movies theatrical trailers which you can see here on CZcams. So most people did know. Sad. A big twist was what Cameron wanted.
in 1991, all the previews, interviews, arcade video games and pop culture pretty much revealed that Arnold was the good guy. Maybe not outright said it, but everyone seemed to already know it for some reason. T2 was the big movie of the summer and a pop culture phenom, so you couldnt escape it.
I know this comment is a year old, but the trend with spoilers went the other way. In the 70s, they'd tell you the entire plot including the ending, and now you don't even know what the movie is about half the time. So anyway, everyone knew the liquid metal terminator was the bad guy and Arnold played the good guy before they saw the movie.
At 2:18 you can hear like a splat sound - is that a sound indicating the redhead was killed? I think in the original you don't hear that. So in this sound mix it has been implied he may have been killed?
No, just knocked out, it looked like a girl actually, he pushed her gently, onto the arcade machine, even T1000 isn't ruthless or blood lusty enough, to stab a child through the head with his metal arm.
Robert Patrick gets a lot of credit for how menacing he is, but not much is mentioned of how well he sells the original intent of the first part of the movie.
It's extremely clear that Cameron's idea was for it to seem that the Terminator is still the bad guy and Robert Patrick is another soldier sent back as a protector. Until it got to this scene.
Sadly the studio let everything loose in the trailers.
Watch him in the Galleria questioning the kids. He acts perfectly human for the few seconds he speaks with people then you see that underlying cunning, machine side of him resurface as he turns away, until he gets to another person to ask and Boom, he's human again. Watch him ask the girls, turn, ask John's friend, turn. He's selling himself as both a human AND a machine right under our noses.
Robert Patrick did so good along with everyone else in this movie.
Yeah it was a great buildup too.
Word
He did an awesome job considering how many lines he had in this movie
Had me fooled since I was 6 watching this. Both Terminators scared the hell out of me
That's actually the beauty of this film! Robert Patrick doesn't look like the bad guy. When he kills the cop, you don't actually see the blade going through you think it's a punch.

1L19 at 4:15 thinking to himself "HEY THAT'S THE GUY THAT ASSAULTED ME OUTSIDE OF TECH NOIR AND STOLE MY COP CAR BACK IN 84!!!"
Can you fit it to a beat?
I do believe that you're right!. Looks a lot like him anyway!
I just looked that up. All these years I never knew that. That explains the look of shock on his face. Nice easter egg. :D
@@tommymoore4219 But is it actually the same guy? It looks a lot like him, but in the sequel, the guy has no speaking role and thus no name credit (that I could find). So- are the two guys the same actor?
Yes he was a writer on both films and had cameos. William Wisher
It's funny to consider that if John wasn't a troublemaker, he wouldn't have even run from the "cop" T-1000.
Oh yeah. Good eye.
He also got at video games because he’s been trained his whole life to fight machines
So would T1000 really stab him in front of everyone in the arcade, and make a big scene- sure, then everyone would know his identity, and he'll be in prison, he would try and entice him, into a secluded place, before stabbing him to death.
He wouldn't have even been the leader of the resistance either.
@@pauljohnson6019 T-1000 would have killed him on the spot dude. It was concerned only with his immediate death, and the cops couldn't have subdued T-1000 even if they tried. Not even the army could have.
Shit back in the day when you could still leave your kids alone in an arcade
"Arcade?"
Well technically I know it's "The Galleria" but I'm pretty sure they were called arcades informally. I could be wrong though. Being as I'm about to turn 30 maybe senility has hit me sooner than I thought!
David Curry lol yes. I'm 41 and back in the 1980s-early 90s, we called them arcades.
Troll-o-rama yup spot on different day today miss the 80s and 90s
I believe they mean the Sherman Oaks Galleria, which was, and as far as I know, still is, a shopping mall. I assume there was an arcade there in those days.
Decades later and tons of terminator movies and we are still just trying to get back to how awesome this movie was.
fr bro
A masterpiece

Right there with you

Back when Terminators were truly something to fear. Merciless, relentless, focused, they will not stop until they accomplish their missions.

They dont feel pity, remorse or fear and it absolutely will not stop. Ever!! Until you are DEAD!!

Mullet kid saves humanity . Solid friend
A good samulletan.
I don’t know why but the imagery of Arnold stepping on the rose is always a good directing shot I thought
Hell yes! And the fact Guns n Roses wrote and played the song in the scene at John's step parents' house and the end credits!
I liked it how John's friend lied to that T1000
Selina Maturino that’s a true friend
Of course. He’s loyal and a good friend
@@Seiko180 Who’s that?
Love the loyalty

CGI garbage
every generation says this though lol to me The Matrix is magic
The dude with the camera at 4:17, is the cop from the first terminator movie when he gets his car stolen after the nightclub shootout. Mr. 1L19. Haha
Indeed it is, William Wisher, one of the writers.
you couldn't miss it, still had the same hair style to hehe
Always wondered how the cops got those photos so fast.
Alfred Hernandez wow never realized that
Yup, he is a good friend of Cameron's who appears in a lot of his movies. He was also the weatherman in the Abyss.
I swear if you were in arcades in the 90s and knew how to play After Burner really good people looked at you like a god.
For some odd reason, I'm suddenly craving a Pepsi.
I'm okay mom, really, all I want is a Pepsi...
I think it's badass pulling the Shotgun out the roses...steppin on em!

I love this scene. I don't know how many times I watched it, it is the greatest scene in movie history. Everything was awesome.
I remember going to the theater to see this movie and being amazed. The only other movie to do that to me was Batman 89
I wish I could’ve saw this in theaters
@HereWeGo Truly a groundbreaking film.
I was 12 as well, aka precisely little Nikki’s age... hence why I make no secret of my lifelong crush on this redheaded Belle... ❤️❤️

One of the best action movie scenes of all time. The flower scene perfects it. Subtle soundtrack too.
Also, attention to detail - sound of flower crunching and the sound of that poor guy's pop can taking a bullet.
The way he looked at the mannequin 🤣and the camera guy 😁
The best of the best terminator movie in history..❤️

Such a perfect movie
It was done perfect and right. I love this sequel.
@@hectorlopez1069 greatest sequel ever still to this day it can't be touched

Plot twist a second later...
"Get Down". When T-800 said that I was like "OH SHIT, the terminator is the good guy.
It's great to know at least a few people got to experience the twist like Cameron intended.
actually no, it was obvious it was to fake-out the public his shotgun was aiming at the T-1000 coming around the corner, now if only the movie established 'how' he knew that would be nice!
The “get down” and then shielding John with his body is so iconic.
David Colantuono that’s hilarious 🤣
4:06 that look at the mannequin is hilarious. Pulls off "scanning and assessing possible threat of rival T1000" really well with his facial expression alone.
2:40 was so badass I can’t get over it. It generally gives me chills💯🖤
who still here in 2019?? lol
When I'm feeling like a boss, I step through double doors like Arnold @ 2:28.
Tried that one time back in hs, ended up smacking some girl with the door.
Still a great classic scene 28 years later!

This scene is so amazing
1:22 John Connor's fight skills!
Best action movie ever.
I've watched this movie 30 times and I just now noticed that the T-1000's uniform has the nametag "Austin" from the cop he killed. Interesting.
2:42 Gun and some roses.
Mind blown!
That rose scene was so badass
This part scared the fuck out of me when I was little. The music and john being a kid and shit

John Connor's friend was Sam from Different Strokes.

robert had to do a lot of running in this film. dude was in such great shape.
Damn these kids can't just keep their mouth shut...telling on him and shit smh

Well he was acquitted in 1995 when this movie takes place
Good catch. Even though the movie came out in '91 it takes place four years after.

that was misslie command, and it was released to arcades in 1980. After Burner was released in 1987.
wow
I just hope there was someone in the theater who had not seen the trailer and was thinking "I sure hope that dude from the future who beat the cop up and stole his clothes gets to John before Schwarzenegger does!"
NO WAY would he be able to find John simply by scouting the streets. LA is 10 million people!
I believe people thought when they first saw this movie, Arnold was going to be the bad Terminator again. Then, he said, get down and it was a different story.

"You look pretty strong, would you mind sparring with me for a few minutes".
What is the name of the vintage game at 1:08?
Missile Command.
Wasn't Jon's red headed buddy in one of the Karate kid movies too? I know I've seen him in more than T2.
Simon Belmont He’s in Salute your shorts
John's friend gets points for having his back, but I would have been like "yeah he left about 5 minutes ago. Said he's going to the park" or something lol
The T1000 would be able to detect his increased heartrate, sweating, and nervous tics. Basically, the longer he drew out the convo, the more the T1000 would be able to see through his lies. Short and sweet was good enough.
Pause the Movie at 3:52 you'll see how awesome it is
Back in the day I know previews didn't give too much away. So can anyone tell me if this was a big reveal when it turned out the T800 was protecting John? Or did the audience already expect it?
Hello. If you still want to know, it was all revealed in the movies theatrical trailers which you can see here on CZcams. So most people did know. Sad. A big twist was what Cameron wanted.
in 1991, all the previews, interviews, arcade video games and pop culture pretty much revealed that Arnold was the good guy. Maybe not outright said it, but everyone seemed to already know it for some reason. T2 was the big movie of the summer and a pop culture phenom, so you couldnt escape it.
I know this comment is a year old, but the trend with spoilers went the other way. In the 70s, they'd tell you the entire plot including the ending, and now you don't even know what the movie is about half the time. So anyway, everyone knew the liquid metal terminator was the bad guy and Arnold played the good guy before they saw the movie.
I dont know if people had tvs but it was def mentioned in the trailer back in the day. something like this time its here to protect.
3:09 poor guy lol
Galleria? Cue Ferris Buellers day off.
Lol, cue Nikki coming over to my house for a day off ❤️❤️
At 2:18 you can hear like a splat sound - is that a sound indicating the redhead was killed? I think in the original you don't hear that. So in this sound mix it has been implied he may have been killed?
No, just knocked out, it looked like a girl actually, he pushed her gently, onto the arcade machine, even T1000 isn't ruthless or blood lusty enough, to stab a child through the head with his metal arm.
