  • "The Terminator: James Cameron's Future War"
    I made this fan video because I'm a huge fan of the two Terminator movies by James Cameron.
    The video consists of three Future War scenes from "The Terminator" and "T2: Judgment Day".
    I'm not the first person on CZcams that decided to post Future War scenes from "The Terminator" movies, but most of those videos are poor quality and badly edited,
    so I made my own video...It took some time to edit, hope you guys like it.
    I didn't include the Future War scene from "Terminator 3", because one, it wasn't made by Cameron and two, I absolutely hate it.
    The sound effects in the T3 Future War scene are all wrong and they didn't capture James Cameron's visual style at all, also, the human resistance members and John Connor look like a bunch of flag-waving hillbillies.
    In Cameron's movies, the resistance members are organized, battle hardened and their uniforms kick ass.
    Enjoy the video and buy these two movies on DVD/Bluray, they are works of art and belong in anyones movie collection...and do yourself a favor, forget about "Terminator 3", pretend it never was created.

      I love it because you can see it in his eyes and his face, how he scans left and right, observing without an ounce of emotion. He's just taking in data and formulating a plan how best to counter the enemy, he's a human terminator. I only needed one shot of his face, and his demeanor, and I instantly understood why Skynet would wager so much stake into the last ditch effort of time travel to stop him, BEFORE he was even born, before he had a chance to become what he did.

      I did like Christian Bale's John Connor for a younger version of John Connor. John was born in 1985, so by the time of Salvation, the year is 2018 where John is now 33. John wasn't the supreme leader of the Resistance until the end of Salvation, so he still had some gorwing up to do. By the time this iconic scene takes place, John is now 44, giving him that timeless badass hardened look.

    I love how the Future War sets the tone. Bleak, grim, and hopeless for humanity. It's always night time probably because the smoke and pollution from Terminator foundries have blotted out the sun with heavy smoke. Soldiers are dying left and right, starvation and famine is everywhere, people have resorted to living in underground tunnels and bunkers, it really feels like humanity is on its last legs and at the brink of extinction. This is what the sequels after Terminator 3 should have been.

      However, the destruction of Skynet wouldn't be the end of the war. Terminator Genesys had it wrong when every Terminator stopped operating when Skynet's mainframe was destroyed. It doesn't make sense, because if that is what would happen, then no Terminator could be sent back in time without becoming inoperable.
      Also, in a deleted scene from Terminator 2, it's mentioned that the Terminators have Neural Net Processor CPU's "learning computers" that is switched to "read only" when they're sent out alone. To me that would imply that infiltrating units have the learning mode switched off, but that the mass army groups could likely have them switched on, allowing them to learn. So when Skynet is destroyed, the work of wiping humans out could still be carried on, in particular, by the Terminators with active learning computers. I think the only things dependent upon Skynet directly would be resource gathering, research and development, and manufacturing...those would all cease when Skynet is destroyed. Giving humanity a chance to destroy them all before some start figuring out how to manufacture Terminators again or WMD's like nukes or chemical weapons.
      It would likely be a long mopping up process. Therefore I would view the destruction of Skynet to be more like what the battle of Gettysburg was for the Civil War.

I'd love to see this concept explored more, especially if there is a faction of machines that actually learns to value human life and agrees to fight with the Resistance in exchange for simply being allowed to co-exist.

    The shots of the backlit Terminator in the bunker, with its eyes glowing, really emphasize the nightmarish atmosphere of the future war sequences. Terminator 1 and 2 nailed the future war scenes. Humanity is starving, struggling to survive and under constant threat of being hunted by the machines.

      some of the coolest shots i ever saw. it's sad we will never know what it's going happen to that infiltrator robot (if he wear a torn out uniform , is that because the infiltrator took the clothes of a dead fighter before like the other terminator does? spooky), plus we can see he forced two persons to guide him into the bunker before doing his massacre. i get it the scene ends with the photo burning, to giving us the impression there will be no hope in the future as long the T800 still seek for John's mom in the past, but im still curious . does the infiltrator killed John and the rest of the people bunker before returning to Skynet to report his dead and then the humanity is doomed ? or there will be reinforcements called at the bunker bringing an heavy artillery in order to take down the infiltrator? so many of interpretations

      @daegnaxqelil2733 I don't understand why those two people could be 'forced' take him back to the bunker, knowing that no matter what, they're going to be killed. The only difference is if they refuse, just they die, whereas if they take him back, them and however many of their companions the Terminator is able to kill die as well.
      Another thing that makes no sense is how badly the people guarding the door dropped the ball. The dogs started barking right away before the Terminator had even revealed himself. Kyle springs into action almost instantly. Yet the terminator was able to get the drop on three separate guys who were standing guard near the door.

    in the dungeon, leading
    a meek existence, the groans of the wounded, a boy who found a rat and was terribly happy about it, people looking at a burning TV with detachment and indifference, an infiltrator bursting in, his infernal, red eyes. And in the midst of all these horrors, in the midst of these unthinkable sufferings, Kyle Reese, who preserved humanity, selflessness and the ability to love. If we add to this a warning to humanity about the potential danger of using artificial intelligence for military purposes, addressed to humanity back in 1984 and already becoming more and more real, you understand why the film of the genius James Cameron is an immortal masterpiece.

    This is why T1 and T2 are so revered. Every moment seen in the Future War feels like a desperate struggle for survival. The "sea of skulls", the people hiding under the debris, the ragged sense of desperation all of the people show, how Kyle has become detached by all the death and destruction around him, how the resistance truly feels like a ragtag group of soldiers being held together under the power of one man, said man having a look in his eyes like he's seen some serious shit, etc.

The cries of the woman off in the distance as the camera panned across the faces of children huddled together in front of that burned out t.v. is chilling. The man feeding himself scraps of something that looked inedible. It made you ponder what she was crying over, what was going through their young minds, and what it would be like to be so hungry that you would eat anything including the rat that the boy finds and holds up happily. This is what an apocalypse would look and feel like. You don't get films like this anymore, and there's a reason for it. The people who run this world don't want you to think and feel because good art does that, and it can stir people to action. The people who are in charge of cranking out the crap that we have today just want you to consume, be a mindless, happy serf, and think pleasant thoughts while they quietly compel us to usher in a future like this.

    John connor surveying the battlefield with zero emotion almost seems like a terminator scanning for targets...considering the only "male" role model he had was a T800 and he's spent years fighting a prolonged war in a nightmarish apocalyptic future...well he'd probably be more of a cold ruthless bad ass rather than a heroic symbol of hope.
    I don't see this guy giving many uplifting and inspirational speeches...it would have been cool to see an adult version of the character struggling to retain his humanity, after years of having to sacrifice his troops and make difficult almost impossible decisions to ensure the survival of the species...shit like drafts and conscriptions, suicide squads who gets fed and equipped with their limited supplies etc...
    I imagine a character who displays zero fear or hesitation with relentless conviction and determination...bolstered by the knowledge that they can and eventually do win the war against the machines...whereas to everyone else it seems hopeless and impossible...so early on when he first appears as a leader his personal actions would appear reckless and damn near suicidal to others...but gradually over time as he defeats the terminators, not only surviving but actually winning the battles time and again the survivors eventually rally behind him...as if it was fate or destiny.

      Its story is set in post-apocalyptic 2028 Los Angeles and serves as a prequel to James Cameron's Terminator franchise films The Terminator (1984) and Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991). Players will take on the role of a new character, Jacob Rivers, a soldier in the John Connor-led human resistance against Skynet's robotic killing machines. The game will have multiple possible endings.[1]
      A sixth film in the Terminator franchise, Terminator: Dark Fate, is being released shortly prior to the game's release, and the game does not appear to have any relation or connection to the sixth film's timeline or characters.[2] Like Dark Fate, however, the game appears to be ignoring all Terminatorfranchise films after Terminator 2: Judgment Day.

      Salvation was shot with the goal of gritty realism, thus didn't look at fantastical as this did, plus the colours were drained and replaced with a blue that isn't cold like Cameron's filming. It also was set in 2018, after T3, so Judgement Day wasn't so far off compared to 1997-2028 like here (thus there was less time to develop plasma tech and all the different units). Simply put, of course Salvation doesn't measure up, as it simply didn't exist in the same timeline (plus had different direction).

    Before he retired in 1980 Navy admiral Hyman Rickover, who built the U.S. nuclear Navy, appeared before a U.S. Senate hearing where one of the senators asked him if humanity would ever destroy itself in a nuclear war, to which the admiral answered: "Yes, one day there will be a global thermonuclear war. It is in our genes to destroy ourselves." I wonder, is he right?

    To me, the major distinction between what was shown in Cameron's future war compared to McG's in "Terminator: Salvation" was feelings of intensity, suspense, and horror at what has become. You can *feel* the desperation for survival, the intensity of the battles, not knowing the outcome of each soldier and survivor. Also, the *music* was paramount in building this tension as well, and Brad Fiedel did such an amazing job.

      The plasma beams coming out of the rifles is CGI. Come now, stop it. The first 2 Terminator movies could not have been done with out using some CGI. What makes them great is that they used practical effects in combination with CGI to make it more convincing.
