      The actor had actually survived having a collapsed lung which is why his performance is so realistic. From an interview: "The reason that moment happened is, he got shot, and at first [James Cameron and I] couldn't find any real way to bring importance to his death," Morton said. "I told James I had been in a [car] accident a few years before where my lung collapsed, and showed him what the result of that was, and once I showed him that, that's what he decided to put in the movie, and it really did work. It was pretty special."

    The smirk when he picks up the minigun is a "replica" of John's.
    Also all the scenes of duplicates were shot with twins.
    The cast also dedicated themselves. The T1000 actor trained at running with his mouth closed and almost caught the dirt bike in the parkade. "Sarah" did workout to become the boss she was in this movie, etc.
    Also notice that the dialog helps explain the events. For example, John asking Arnie "Your not here to kill me..." and Arnie explains to John AND us that he was reprogrammed.

    They did indeed blow up that building. But more than it could be restored. It's basically just a big gasoline explosion, wit5h not much of a boom. Building still stands to this day.
    They actually used a lot less CGI, than many people think. For example, the "naked" terminators in the beginning were all animatronics - controlled by people. CGI was still in its infancy, when the movie was made. So a lot of practical effects and miniatures.

    I was 20 years old when T2 came out and I am so glad I saw it in the theaters. Prior to filming, Linda Hamilton spent three months in intense physical training with a former Israeli Special Forces commando; she could take apart and put back together a gun blindfolded. Robert Patrick, the actor who played the T-1000, went through the same physical training. For the blowing up of Cyberdyne, that was a real building. When this movie came out, a book was published about the making of T2. For Cyberdyne, they found a two-story building and built the facade of a third floor over the second and that is what they blew up in the movie.

      Agree for the most part, with the exception of one bit of the soundtrack, the off kilter strange time signature rendition of the Terminator theme in the first movie is genuinely unsettling to the human ear, the cleaned up orchestral version used from this movie on (whilst quite beautiful in it's own right) really doesn't compare to the almost alien quality of the clanking cacophony from T1 which really just lets you know you are in for something strange and different. Eddy Furlong dirt biking while blasting Guns N Roses kind of makes up for it though lol

  • @thatpatrickguy3446
    @thatpatrickguy3446 Před 4 dny +2

    Great reaction to one of the greatest sequels of all time! This is the final chapter of the Terminator saga, and it nailed it, going out on a high note.
    Some notes:
    The man taking pictures while looked stunned in the mall is the same character (and actor) who was the police officer that Arnold took the police car from in his pursuit of Kyle and Sarah in the first movie. That's why he looks stunned: he knows who this guy is and he knows the damage and killing he was responsible for the last time he saw him. He's also the source of the current day photos the officers show Sarah in Pescadero. It's not mentioned or referred to in any editions, but it is an Easter Egg that a friend of mine showed me.
    Robert Patrick trained so hard for this role as the T-1000. Training to fire a gun without the reflexive blink. Learning to run full speed only breathing through his nose, and he was fast enough a sprinter that he actually caught the dirt bike in the mall parking garage. All while being completely deadpan in his expression. He was so amazingly good and incredibly intimidating in this movie, as much as or even more so than Arnold, and that's saying something!
    When the orderly licks Sarah in the hospital that was apparently one of the so-called catatonia tests done by unethical or sadistic orderlies according to an old friend of mine who had worked in a few psych hospitals in California back in the late 70s and early 80s. It wasn't unusual for patients to try to get an advantage by pretending to be catatonic, hoping that the staff would think that they were out of it and not pay much attention so they could try to escape, create havoc, or whatever. Licking someone's face was a mild way of testing, according to my friend. The more standard way of testing among the more brutal orderlies was what was called a cup check, basically hitting the person in the crotch as hard as they could with a broomstick or something like that (neither the tonfa, shown in the movie, or a police billyclub was standard equipment for orderlies when he was working in the field, so the evil jerks had to use other items like broomsticks, umbrellas, or knees). If they didn't react then they were catatonic. And, sometimes, the catatonic patients needed to be taken to the hospital due to the damage inflicted by whatever the orderly did causing ruptures or internal damage. Apparently one patient lost his testicles as it was several days before it was realized how badly he had been hurt. And, of course, no one ever knew how it happened. “He musta fallen, or done it to himself to try to get out of here.” My friend never missed that job. He told me that some people did things worse than that, but those stories don't need repeating.
    There are two sets of twins in this movie. One set are the brothers who played the security guard at Pescadero and the T-1000 imitating him. The other set are Linda Hamilton and her twin sister Lesley who played the other Sarah in the sequences like the nightmare where there are two of her are in the same scene. Lesley, a nurse in real life, passed away a few years ago.
    There was a scene of the T-101 learning to smile and failing miserably that was cut from the theater edition cos it doesn't add anything of value to the story, but it does lead to a point that amused me once I saw it. After the failure copying a young man's smile unsuccessfully, the Terminator begins copying John's mannerisms and his one sided half smirk smile. This is best seen in the exchange after he hefts the minigun in Sarah's arms bunker and with the "Trust me." at Cyberdyne.
    I remember learning that Cameron got a letter from a group of scientists congratulating him for the most realistic depiction of a nuclear detonation in a city in Sarah's nightmare. This horrified him since he was just trying to create the most over the top terrifying image he could, only to discover that it was accurate.
    Luckily, Sarah stepped back from Terminator mode before killing Dyson, which is good. Killing Dyson wouldn't have changed much of anything anyway. Cyberdyne still would have had the parts, all his notes, and everything they needed to complete the project. Judgment Day would have come, just on a different day other than Michael Jackson's (and my little sister's) birthday. The excellent Joe Morton, who played Dyson, had an accident that punctured one of his lungs when he was younger, so he knew firsthand how Dyson should be breathing/gasping at the end.
    And, when you get right down to it, the biggest damn hero in this movie was Miles Dyson. When faced with the reality of what his creation will be used for he changes from dispassionate scientist and loyal company man to willing participant who willingly sacrifices his life for the future. He's even more heroic in that he gives the SWAT team who have mortally wounded him the chance to escape and save their lives. Miles Dyson was the epitome of a good man.
    The extended edition had two advantages over the standard edition. Though it wasn't obvious in its performance, the continuous damage the T-1000 was taking from every shot that hit it and every impact was affecting it. It is most obvious at the scene in the smelting plant after being shattered when, as shown in the theater release, its feet tended to take on the aspect of the flooring as it walked and, in the extended edition, when it grabbed a railing its hand mimicked the paint job on the railing. Also, in the extended edition, at the final scene when Sarah is calling out for John, John looks down and sees that the fake Sarah's feet look like the ironwork that the T-1000 is standing on and he knows for sure which to trust.
    The extended edition variant ending is also superior (to me) for one more reason: it ends with older Sarah sitting on a playground bench and watching her adult son playing with her granddaughter, meaning that this Terminator movie is absolutely the end of the franchise, and all the movies that steal the name of the series after this are just lame cash grabs and can and should be avoided like the plague, in my opinion.
    And, yeah, after spending all of the first movie waiting for Arnold's Terminator to just fricking DIE already, it was a weird feeling to be hoping that he would survive. But even if he hadn't gone into the smelter he wouldn't have lasted too much longer anyway. His main power source had been destroyed, and the secondary likely wouldn't have kept him functioning for too much longer, especially after all the damage he had taken. But that last thumbs up made me choke up when I first saw it, and still does.

Cameron was so happy he gave him a small cameo on the film (he's that guy bailing out of the chopper after the iconic "GET OUT". And funny enough after bailing out you can see it's his body shape flying away from the scene lol) . Any and every major action film where there's a chopper, he's the man flying it.

    In the mall scene, when T1000 puts Arnie through the window - you can see a guy with a camera taking pictures with a shocked look on his face. Usually people attribute this shock simply to the fact that he witnessed a person being thrown through the glass. However, this guy is played by the same actor who played a cop in Part One, the one who got knocked out by evil Arnie and got his police car stolen.
    Its the same cop off duty in the mall, all these years later, and he's shocked because he recognizes Arnold.
