*This is "open matte" version, higher aspect ratio than the original blu-ray version. Frame comparison:* www.picshare.ru/uploads/191118/rns964k8Ev.jpg
Where can I find the whole "open matte" version movie?
i NEED THIS OPEN MATTE VERSION
What does this "open matte" mean, in laymen's terms? I have recently watched The Terminator in a great remastered blu ray version, but it had horizontal borders on top and at bottom as most films has on my 16:9 screen.
Would love to have more movies actually use all of my screen space but not if some of the picture is cropped.
Just trying to understand if "open matte" is like a "Best of two worlds" kind of thing :)
Flashback FM , Hey buddy , did you just see a real bright light ?
you just stretched the picture, both frames show exactly the same crop, but now the aspect ratio is fucked..
In a deleted scene Reese starts crying because he can't believe how beautiful the world is compared to the dark future he's come from. That's when Sarah decides to prevent Judgement Day
Dang. Would've loved that.
Reminds me of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. Haha
Should have kept it!
@@TheAwesomeDarkNinja That scene is here on CZcams if you look for it. I saw it a few nights ago. They should have left it in.
The alley he landed in was absolutely shit. Not that much different from the apocalypse future lol
@@VashtheStampede007 yeh must have been skid row
Michael Biehn is the under appreciated action hero of the 80s
He is just one of the most under appreciated actors of all time. His roles in The Terminator and Aliens, should have made him a star. Jim Cameron actually fired another actor originally playng Hicks and told his then wife and producer Gale Anne Hurd, to call Michael Biehn and offer him the part. He was flown to England and started shooting the next day.
Always will be my favorite action hero.
one of them at least. It's too bad he wasn't offered other action roles.
@@writer46m72 What do you mean? He has pretty much done nothing but action roles. Always playing a soldier or a cop. And even a cowboy twice. Aliens, The Abyss, Tombstone The Rock, Navy Seals. What is really too bad is that he has never been recognized as the great dramatic actor he also is. He should have had a career like Ryan Reynolds instead of remaining unknown to most people.
He played a pretty good villain in Abyss too.
I like how when the terminators arrive, they appear stoicly, with elegance, as they stand up and analyze the world around them. But when humans arrive, they miserably flop on the ground like a fish out of water
What do you expect from a machine that has no feelings or remorse. Going through the time displacement device was like walking through a door for terminators
It gives the impression that the machines knew exactly what they were doing when they sent T-800 back, but the humans were basically just guessing with Kyle.
@@masonhancock5350 It's not my fault your father never loved you
You forget the fact that humans feel pain when going through.
@@willchurch8376 They brought Kyle in high, they wanted to be sure not to materialize him into sold rock.
Always loved how the cops’ flashlights hovering in the background searching for Reese are allusions to the HKs in the future. Great visual symbolism for Reese: he’s always being hunted no matter what.
What is HK ?
Patrick Caville Hunter Killer drones
@@Samuel33042 the one appearing in T3 ?
Patrick Caville Yeah they’re also the one in T3, but specifically in T1 they are seen in the future war where there are HK drones flying around using their spotlights to spot survivors. There’s a scene where Kyle Reese is chased while in a car and get blown by the HK.
I always thought it was convenient that while the future had nothing but rubble, you'd spend most your time crouched and running around. I always thought that in my mind as how he escaped the cops in the store.
This scene is great. It shows how painful time travel is for a human, but for a terminator it's nothing.
For a terminator, time travel is the equivalent of a nice night for a walk.
It may sometimes depend on the time machine. The machine in Terminator is a huge “weapon” so it makes sense for a human to be in pain from using it, whereas if it were like a walk-in pod, maybe the trip would be less painful/overwhelming, just a bit of a daze.
@@DEthe5150 Nice night for a walk.
Then in genesis they show up get hit by a car and are perfectly fine
@@JoshPadgett Subjects that go through the TDE process are coated in foul smelling, bio-conductive gel.
They then step onto a magnetic platform & giant rings begin to gyrate around the subject, gradually picking up speed until the rings form an orb.
This creates massive arcs of energy, which proceed to strike the subject. The gel eventually burns into a fine white powder by the time the subject arrives at its destination.
That's the reason for the excruciating pain Reese was in when he arrived.
Landing on solid pavement didn't help either!
"I came across time for you, Sarah."
One of the best romantic lines of all time, and he delivered it perfectly.
Just a shame Kyle does appear in only one scene in T2
@@alessiocataldi2434 In the director's cut, yeah. He should've been in the final cut of the film. Damn, why.
he's a simp then
@@wistic237 Just shut up.
Yeah! he came alright
Seems like everyone is in agreement that Michael Biehn is an excellent “soldier” actor. Terminator, Aliens, the Abyss. Badass in Tombstone.
And....NAVY SEALS!
And the ROCK!
His speech in The Rock movie was amazing.
And in “The Mandalorian”
His performance in Tombstone should at least have got him nominated for some kind of award.
Those cops really went above and beyond to retrieve that bum's pants.
They won't give up chasing a suspect so easily, especially one that stole a cop's gun.
Hey serve and protect
Glad to see they're considerate
That's the most inaccurate thing about this movie.
@@neighborhoodmusicsnob5517 He assaulted a police officer and stole his gun. A lot more cops would show up then this.
Love the detail at 4:11 where he runs out of the alley with the shotgun and the two inconsequential people in the background at a distance immediately slowdown and hug the wall.
thats when something is masterpiece. just no mistakes in movie.
Or they saw a broke James Cameron shooting a movie without a permit and didn't want to be in the shot.
@@thegrimyeaper a lot of this was one guerilla style. So you're most likely right. Or they didnt see Cameron just saw the gun.
that and how he slows down to walk and have the bum between him and the oncoming cop car to help cover him.
great viewing
Cool., Ive never noticed that before. And Ive probably seen this movie at least 30 times.
Michael Biehn looks and acts as a soldier from the future who had to fight his whole life. Which certainly cannot be said of the guy who was playing Kyle Reese in Genysis.
Yeah, the guy in Genysis was horrible casting. Didnt have any of the qualities Michael Biehn had.
Hahahahah so true, Kyle Reese cannot be muscular nor sane, Genesys is so ridiculous and insulting
yeah, that guy from Genysis looks like he was taken off from a men underwear magazine
And notice Michael Biehn also played a soldier from the future in Aliens.
Genyshit
Nike: The official shoes worn by time travelers.
yep
No, not me.
Haha yeah even Marty McFly
@@ankushshetty Kyle's looked more badass
Those were some nice shoes though
I like how this opening scene illustrates Kyle’s stealth. Not a sound made while grabbing resources. All to imply Kyles hellish life of hiding from the machines.
Yeah. Still beats me how he somehow broke into a police car, stole a shotgun, and ran off without the police even knowing. Obviously, the new technology makes breaking into a police car without being noticed, not mentioning stealing weapons and escaping without a trace, near impossible to do, but I'm pretty it was still extremely hard in the 80s.
But he was raised in an apocalyptic land and had to sneak around just to evade machinery, so I guess he had an advantage with that.
@@cutercills9x9creates65Well it helps if the cop car is unlocked, which it was. Add on the fact that Kyle was mad sneaky due to avoiding HKs his whole life. I'd say it's possible for him to dodge a dozen or so humans
@@Killabear-en2xqwell and I think him having hopped down right by that cop car and it being unlocked was a bit of luck too. One detail I like is that Reese saws the stock of the gun off because it’s clearly sticking out the bottom of his coat when he runs off with it
Great work by Michael Biehn .
This role was just overshadowed by Arnold's Portrayal
robinson xlnt not really
Still the best Terminator film.
Michael Biehn is the only Kyle Reese since Salvation and Genysis are not connected to Judgement day
you guys forgot, michael biehn has always problems with drugs and alcohol
Michelino Sports
Drugs ? I never read that anywhere . I know he had problems with alcohol though. The original actor cast to play Hicks in Aliens (James Remar) was fired for problems to do with drug use. Then obviously replaced by Michael Biehn.
Reece is a speedhacker.....dude got clothes , 2 weapons and hit lvl 10 in under 5 minutes.....
Lamaw
He has a multiplier bonus for previously defeating T-800s.
hes a soldier , military training make always the difference.
By now he has lvl 50 at least because of future war. Taking new weapons and clothes in small amount of time is nothing hard for him
He's lvl 100 by the end, his titanium balls cost him his neck.
This is great on so many levels. I like how the LA of 1984 is portrayed as a terrifying wasteland on par with the post-apocalyptic future. It also demonstrates that Kyle Reese is an extremely intelligent and resourceful soldier. This confirms that he is the best person the Resistance could have sent back to 1984.
From Reese's point of view he was taken from one nightmare he was familiar with to a new unknown nightmare.
@Ironclaw XII That's so true, people tend to romanticize the 80s but it was a very troublesome period. As you said, NYC was a shithole and it changed only after Rudolph Giuliani became the mayor!
Well put
@@rojaws1183 exactly
@@ankihansen2489 good good point
It's really cool how similar this scene looks to the future war scenes. Darkness, decay, bright white, red and blue lights.
That is something T1 did really well, giving its world a sense of impending doom.
Colors of America: red, white, and blue.
Search-lights going to and fro.
I was gonna say, also gives contemporary LA (at the time) a very cyberpunk look
Biehn’s’ Reece is paranoid, scared, intense, wired and absolutely brilliant. You really get the feeling he’s on edge, about to snap, and is in pain after being hurtled into 1984 New York from the future. Maybe Mr Bland who played him in the dour Genysis should’ve taken more notes...
You mean L.A.
Ol' shovelface is mr blands name
Yeah. It's crazy how that guy keeps getting cast in high profile movies. He is a terrible actor. God forbid they sweat in movies either.
Yes, intense pain. The Wisher paperback movie tie in had Reese mentally comparing it to getting his 'nuts kicked up into his chest cavity'--not overly specific but really evocative.
@@johnsmith-wx5fb Mr. Bland is just too 'fit'. Here Biehn looks and moves like a 'feral' cat.
Such an iconic character.
Yeah I wish there was a prequel that would tell more of Kyle's experiences in the war against the machines.
A.J Thomas I fully agree
a true legend
The actor also has an important role in Alien 2.
@@a.jthomas6132 forgote thes
Dark fate destroy this franchise storyline
Michael Biehn said in an interview about 4 years ago that this scene--where his stunt double falls naked on the cement--was one of the hardest stunts he had ever witnessed. The stuntman fell about 6 feet onto the cement without any padding or protection. It is actually hard to watch. 0:27
If only they did that more in movies.
@AltairGalaxy not all cgi is bad. Some things are impossible to pull off without cg.
You don't have to see it, you hear it O.o
That stunt double had to fall 6 ft on to cement…with no padding or protection! That had to hurt!
@AltairGalaxy that's the worst part. People who become too lazy to do their own things and use cgi for everything even just a character who could've had someone dress or have props for
Never seen a character run with such a strong will to escape. Brilliant acting with brilliant soundtrack=masterpiece
This movie will never feel old, thats genius quality
The audio quality feels old but that's about it.
The music and audio is old af.
@@Xpistos510 Only to a Young Dumb Fuck like yourself.
@@UCHMwCc-lwhGBuemXjy015Jw yeah you're dumb
Brace Yourself or maybe it sounds old because the movie is old. There’s nothing wrong with that, every film ages
They really show how skilled and almost comfortable Reese is at evading enemies and concealing himself. He's done this all his life. The police almost no threat to him compared to what he's faced in the machine war.
Reese hiding from the cops with flashlights is a foreshadowing to how he evades the HKs with their plasma cannons. He’s the ultimate survivor

The Roo I agree with you 100 percent but I still feel like his performance got overshadowed by Arnold’s
@@YuhZnuyi Arnold is the titular character and everyone loves a good villain, plus it's the role that defined him and the one where people sat up and started taking him a little more seriously. Biehn and Hamilton were solid in this too
God this film is a masterpiece. Met Michael Biehn in 2018. He was really nice, and took 10 minutes to have a genuine conversatin with me.
Nice
Michael attended Dublin Comic Con a few years ago but did not turn up on the Sunday. We missed him. Crushed......
Few things are more satisfying than meeting actors from movies you grew up with and having them spend time with you just to have a relaxing and friendly chat. Kudos to Mr Biehn for being a gentleman.
@@MarceloMedeiros-iv2xi, the original has an absolutely stellar cast, all round
3:53
That cowboy switch is brilliant! The stuntman climbs the fire escape, and drops on to presumably a crash mat, and Michael Biehn comes out from behind the police car.
*chef's kiss*
I don't think there's a stuntman there but Biehn himself, based on his physique at that time I don't think Biehn wouldn't be able to do this stunt by himself if you wanna call this a stunt
@@DeDasilva81 I very much disagree.
If it was Biehn then they would’ve taken advantage of it and not obscured his landing with the cop car. They’d want to show off the fact that it’s him.
Also, just because he CAN do the stunt doesn’t mean that they’d want to use him. If something even slightly goes wrong then that’s one of the lead actors injured and filming severely affected. This is primarily why they use stunt actors, not to do what actors can’t, but because actors are too essential to risk injuring.
@@garyking1986 You seem to know a lot of stuff about movies! I can agree with you after you explained this to me with good points! I always enjoy learning new stuff! Thanks!
@@DeDasilva81 Aww thanks, man! I'm not the most knowledgable person in general, but my movie knowledge is something I pride myself on.
I'm glad I could educate you on something as simple as that. Have a great day, friend.
I know the mainstream audience prefer T2. I get it. Its a fun, buddy-buddy action movie. But in my opinion the original Terminator movie is by far the best one.
2-4-5 TRIOXIN: The difference imo is that T1 is a SciFi/Horror movie and T2 is SciFi/Action. I liked T2 but loved T1.
I loved T1 in the theater in 1984, and have loved it since. When I finally watched T2 recently, I could only stand 30 minutes before going straight to the ending. It's an awful movie.
I watched T2 before T1. It honestly boils down to your tastes - if you like horror, T1 does it best. Meanwhile T2 is more explosions and action.
Sam Brasel
Yes. T1 and T2 are very different movies. T1 = outmatched humans vs unstoppable monster. T2 = good monster vs bad monster. I find the whole Dyson subplot in T2 to be very long and very boring. The subplot in T2 also breaks the pace and build up of tension. The original movie keeps the pace and tension build up going from start to finish. Its always focused on the outmatched protagonists trying desperately to stay one step ahead of the Terminator. In T2 the pace and tension build up is broken when the story deviates into the Dyson subplot.
Also in T2 the protagonists have an actual Terminator to protect them. The protagonists in T1 are more vulnerable. They have nothing to protect themselves except trying to take pot shots at the Terminator to slow it down so they can put some space between themselves and it. And the weapons they have are basically useless. Its bloody brilliant.
T1 is the perfect Terminator movie really. The whole movie is 100 percent focused on the outmatched protagonists, desperately trying to stay one step ahead of the Terminator, and gradually we see the Terminator waring them down and catching up to them, right up to the point where the Terminators figers are inches away from Sarah's throat. The film is brilliantly done. T1 is humans vs machine. Simple, focused, perfectly paced and intense. T2 is machine vs machine and mother and son. Its drama with over the top flashy action scenes, fun and humour thrown in.
@@sbrasel You must be the first person I've ever seen who said T2 is bad. Wow. But I am gonna admit that it's overappreciated. Try watching the movie thoroughly before you judge if you haven't yet. I'll say they made John Connor way too whiny (I get that he's a kid, but he hardly developed at all throughout the film) my second biggest issue with it is the dragging Miles Dyson side plot, but it was also the strongest at the same time.
Imagine being a cop and having to say "He's got my gun, let's go!"
They truly live. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
A cop losing his gun is like a sacrilegious act. It's a no no..
I always felt sorry for Reese. Imagine coming from a world you are comfortable with and being transported through time to a world you only read or heard about. You have no place in that world you don't know anyone. Your all alone and on top of that you must protect a 19 year old woman with only your skills and a shotgun against a almost unstoppable cyborg
And most importantly, seduce her enough to impregnate her, unknowlingly. :D
@@ElBandito What if Kyle didn't fuck her for some reason? John Cornor would just vanish from existence lol.
Don't forget that he volunteered for the time travel. It was his own choice.
I mean the world he was coming from was post apocalyptic and was run by killer machines. The 80s had to be a dream by comparison
He didn't have shotgun and took it only by a good opportunity
I like how Kyle actually TRIES to hide the gun in his coat. As opposed to Grace in Dark Fate by just throwing a sweater over it and having a good portion of the barrel sticking out, lmao.
Yes, but I love the idea that no one cares what she carries under her sweater and they don't see the barrel sticking out.
Watching The Shawshank Redemption? There, no one even saw the prisoner come out of the cell in patent-leather shoes.
Because nobody looks at the shoes.
It's the same story with Grace, you can walk around with a gun under a sweater as much as you like, but no one will notice.
Tbh, Grace had stolen some clothes to masquerade as a security guard.
Here's something you might find interesting:
Take a close look at Kyle when he first arrives. He has scars and bruises all over his body, he looks worn out and emaciated and his physique is borderline average and unassuming -- it's details like these that make you believe he actually does come from a post-apocalyptic future.
Then go over to his laughable portrayal in Genisys -- he's jacked, hale and there's not even a single scar or bruise on him. Jai Courtney's bad acting notwithstanding, there's no way in hell he could convince you that a soldier from a post-apocalyptic future could look that clean and healthy.
Amazing how much of a difference a little worldbuilding can make, isn't it?
Courtney's Reese wasn't a soldier from the future. He was a whining drama queen
@Pedro Sepulveda wrong reply
he looks pretty lean, skinny but strong
I've always wondered where he got the big circular scar on his back. But it tells us without a word that Kyle's been through some serious shit
If that's what you consider an average physique then I dont even want to know what you consider out of shape...
This guy is such an underrated actor. I can't believe he doesn't get enough recognition for this role
Michael Biehn, looks so handsome in that movie, he is a soldier, he is a hero, I loved him.

Imagine yourself being Kyle Reese. You're sent though time and space to a place you don't even know, on a mission to save the mother of your commanding officer, and hero the resistance, from an infiltrator unit that you don't even know what it looks like. You're naked, alone, helpless. Gotta give it to this man, even with all the PTSD he's carring, he never lost focus on his mission. He is not just a mere character, he represents humanity, as beings that never give up, no matter how hard or difficult the situation, or life, can be.
Excellently said man.
He couldn’t afford to become distracted, the fate of all humanity was resting on his shoulders. From the minute he arrived in the past he wasn’t distracted, he just went straight to the mission of finding Sarah
Those burn scars look crazy realistic. I’ve got two on my back that look just like them
Really? Which year did you travel to when you received them? 😂
@@AchtungBaby77 He survived that bunker massacre Reese remembered.
I just love these night scenes. The background lights and everything
0:28 according to Michael Biehn, this was the most dangerous stunt to do in the whole film, landing straight on a hard cement floor. Even more dangerous than being chased by Arnie aka Terminator.
1:05 I love the music that starts, its hopeful and sets the tone that Reese is our hero and we are going on an epic journey with him
Still there are people who didn't guess that Reese was the good guy until he saved Sarah at Tech Noir
1980s movie music is the best
I've listened to the entire soundtrack and it really does tell the story and take the listener on a journey - absolute fantastic composition which compliments this movie tremendously. What a masterpiece.
This was intentional - it made a cat and mouse kind of thing where no-one could tell what they wanted Sarah for (Sarah was defenceless and completely naive).
@@UrAvergFrTeenWithin the movie, it was Sara herself who didn't know who the good guy was until Arnie pointed it out to her.
Twenty seconds in a mall chased by cops and he manages to have a better look than me during my 20 years of shopping.

Michael Biehn IS Kyle Reese. He really nailed the character, both physically and emotionally. He really does come from a bleak, dirty, dangerous and dark future.

Biehns Kyle Reese, scandolously disregarded and under rated
Sometimes when I ask someone the date, I follow up with “WHAT YEAR?!” Of course they give me a puzzled look. Then again, I am old.
😂😂😂
Biehn makes you believe he’s actually a soldier from the future fighting for humanity’s future. Incredible performance
Michael Biehn is "the thinking man's" action hero actor. He's also "the feeling man's" action hero actor. Kyle Reese is his personal favorite character of all he's portrayed (or so I've read). All of Reese's strengths, especially his resourcefulness, come from his humanity. There's nothing superhuman about him. He's raw and real. Of all the '80s and '90s action icons that are (or should be) household names, Michael Biehn and Bruce Willis were the best at blending "yang" strength with "yin" sensitivity to embody whole and realistic characters.
i heard him say that Aliens is JC's best film.
@@mkphotofilm Always a good choice. Had a Do0m movie been made in the '90s (there were murmurs of such), Mike - not Arnie - should have played Do0mguy. Or alternatively, Tom Berenger. They both actually look like Do0mguy!
i love 80s synth music
Michael Biehn will always and will be the best Kyle Reese
I love the contrast between the arrival of the terminator vs that of Reese. Arnold, the villain arrives glamorously and in a badass way, on a pimped out balcony overlooking the city. Reese, the hero arrives shivering and disheveled in a back alley next to a dumpster.
I think people nowadays people remember this movie for the wrong reasons; for Arnold and the punchlines. Those were great of course, but the best part of this movie is the story, the writing, acting and directing of Sgt. Kyle Reese and Sarah.
This was easily one of the best action/dramas of the 80s even absent of “I’ll be back”.
On your feet, soldier!
I love how he's running on adrenaline and according to the novelization stimulants the resistance gave him before traveling through time, then catches himself and blends in as much as possible.
Imagine what must be going through Reese's head during all of this.
David Holt O.o
This scene is a masterpiece, so deep it lets you feel walkin in Reeses' shoes
Still not as bad as the future I'm assuming.
"Oh shit, not again!"
Very believable in the way he movies that he's a soldier from the future who had to watch out for HK's and terminators. Jai Courtney on the other hand moves around like a lumbering bear.
Jai Courtney just looked like a Chad that dressed up as Reese for a Halloween party or something.

There is only one Kyle Reese and is portrayed by Michael Biehn. There is no better actor than him to play this role. The pain, paranoia, the skills, the storytelling about his world in his time. Does not get more realistic than this.
The original time warrior!

This movie is perfect. The visuals, the cast, score, the pace! Brilliant
Absolutely
@MarceloMedeiros-iv2xi, Genisys was a big miss. Nothing touches the original. T2 was entertaining as was T3. Salvation was daft as was Genisys. Dark Fate was entertaining. I enjoyed The Sarah Chronicles.
@MarceloMedeiros-iv2xi, wish they'd just leave it alone. Not one film made any sense after the untouchable original. It was because storytelling was completely replaced for moneymaking.
I love how easily he evades the police, even has tike to go clothes and shoe shopping. Fucking brilliantly done.
The MOST underrated movie in the entire franchise..
Hiei2019 how?
And by far the best one
it's not underrated you stupid fuck
Is not underrated it's the best one lol.
Yeap it's actually the best by far i would say
Best nike commercial ever
I didn't realize until now that at 1:09 Reese is looking out for HKs. The shadow cast by the floating paper and the sound of the helicopter are triggering long-ingrained fear and survival habits. But he also sees LA in 1984, still standing rather than a pile of rubble. Hence, he knows that he isn't in his own time anymore.
That's a stretch
40th Anniversary of this iconic moment!
You have to understand that Kyle Reese is a soldier who had to evade the Terminators. That makes this scene all the more believable.
3:26 Kyle Reese sure got his priorities right when he picked up a pair of cool kicks.
But the bum pants? Come on Reese
If u look closely there was a basket of those shoes and he found the right size
Michael Biehn player the role like it should’ve been. Paranoid, angry, scared, on edge trying to survive. He looked starved, covered in scars and very human. You really felt he came from a horrible war zone, and the odds were stacked against him in this mission. Compare that to the muscular plank of wood they got for Genesys.
Michael Biehn always had it in him.
Always loved how over the top the police’s reaction was to a guy stealing some Bum’s pants. Must have been a slow week....
@trajan hercules Well where I live, if you attack a cop and steal their gun, there'd be a national manhunt for you.
Also, I'm sure the police were alerted to begin with due to reports of the T-800 walking around naked. The patrols probably assumed that Kyle was the naked cyborg.
They thought he was an exhibitionist.
They were responding to electrical disturbances
Met him once, really nice guy!
Kyle Reese is by far the best character
i think the mistake of the later terminator movies is that they tried to remake terminator 2, instead of remaking terminator 1. they lost the fear aspect and the gritty realistic weaker abilities of the human protagonist and stuff.
The protagonists in this film were ordinary scared humans, not the brave superheroes of later films.
@@rojaws1183 yeah man thats it.
The thing is that horror never took off as a blockbuster genre unlike sci-fi action. Cameron modeled the first movie after Halloween and that still doesn't sell anywhere near as much.
00:37 me when I woke up on monday
Slept on the wrong side?
That’s me every day.
😂😂😂
true 😂
Was just thinkin the same thing. Except my hair looks worse and my mouth smells worse than my asshole.
Real stuntman falls from over 6 feet no cgi. This is why old movies like this are superior to the modern counterpart.
I'm all for calling out shitty cgi but even today, in most cases a stunt man would be used.
Modern films are shittier to older ones for other, more important reasons.
Reese returned to the store the following day to get some socks.
And a clean pair of pants
Considering the State of that Alleyway, it's a good thing Kyle didn't step on any glass or needles and die there.
This was peak 80s. Synthesizer, the clothes the hair the dancing. This movie defined the 80s.
This Reese actually looks like he's come straight from a dystopian nightmare.
The Reese from Genisys looks like he's just come from the gym.
Rest in peace, Stan Yale. He was one of my all-time favorite character actors who specialized in playing homeless dudes.
Kyle Reese's ability to blend into his surroundings, as seen at the 4:14 mark, demonstrates his exceptional stealth and adaptability. His gradual entry into the phone booth highlights his methodical approach and unwavering focus on his mission to locate Sarah Connor.
40 years later here we are, May 12th -2024
They won’t be able to create machines like that for about 40 years
Always love the way he checks the shoes, so cool
I love how the words "To care and to protect" are briefly in the middle of the screen as Reese grabs the shotgun.
Just absolutely loved how he saw the police cars with the sirens and just blended into the street
Michael Biehn had some of the most memorable roles in the 80’s & 90’s. Reese here in Terminator, Hicks in Aliens, Johnny Ringo in Tombstone, among others. How didn’t become more of a Hollywood lead actor star still astounds me
I love Kyle's pose on 3:36. It looks so cool. It is random yet natural in some way.
Having spent his life evading H-K’s and Terminators, outwitting L.A’s finest is a piece of cake.
Michael Biehn kicked ass as Kyle Reese and he did an amazing job playing Kyle Reese in The Terminator :)
I got a photo with Linda and Michael at Dublin Comic Con last weekend they were so sweet! I dressed up as Kyle
I loved this film so much I named my kid after him
Michael Biehn as Kyle Reese is the hottest character to ever exist, no backsies.
Man I feel bad for him
For the limited budget of the first film, the lighting is still unforgettably good.
I forever love how he Velcros those Nikes up in the photo booth.
Cooler than cool.
That SOB took my pants is a better line than any Arnie joke.
