- Welcome to our first time watching Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991).
What a sequel!
Wow, some say it's better than the original and we can see why. Written by James Cameron and William Wisher, Directed by James Cameron and starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton, Edward Furlong and Robert Patrick.
This film is incredible how it stands up to today 35 years later. The film still impresses! And we love it.
Nothing else needs to be said.

I'm 42 and the Terminator theme music still gives me intense chills, it somehow manages to perfectly capture the magnitude of an AI apocalypse.
Love the dad’s eye reaction when the son mentioned freezing the T-1000
This kid picks up on things pretty quickly in a few of the reactions. Future screenwriter??
"Hey Vasquez!" Right on Dad for that call out!!!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⚡
I never knew this 🤯 all these years had no idea😅
@@Rah84eem, that's why Jenette is called a chameleon!
She even has a cameo in "Titanic", yet another Jim Cameron movie.
Todd was mistaken for a man. 😉
Easily one of the top 10 films of all time
This will be memorable for your son. Every boy of a certain age LOVES T2. I was 9 and T2 was the greatest movie-going experience of my life. Not even Jurassic Park could dethrone this masterpiece for me. The Terminator and T2 were the Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back for my generation. And i love your cosplay outfits.
"Dad!", I have seen this movie so many times, you said those words, "Guns n Roses" , "they're on the soundtrack", in all these years I've never figured that out! Excellent upload, thanks for the reaction.
A lot of Edward Furlong’s lines had to be redubbed because puberty was kicking him in the butt and his voice kept breaking.
Linda Hamilton’s twin sister was her body double in the steel mill scene .
The actor playing the hospital guard named Lewis had his own twin brother playing his body double .
During preproduction Edward Furlong took motorcycle riding lessons .
After the release of this film Honda saw a spike in sales of CR dirt bikes .
Arnold Schwarzenegger badly hurt his hand while attempting to do the one handed reload of the shotgun .
At one point during filming Arnold Schwarzenegger split his time between California and Oregon for filming of Kindergarten Cop
The dog “Max” was barking like crazy because (in the future timeline) they were used to help identify Terminators .
Robert Patrick trained in running so well that he was actually able to catch up to Edward Furlong on the dirt bike .
The nuclear explosion is said to be very realistic as to how one would look
Tell your kid that this is the movie, besides being a masterpiece, is the one that started the CGI craze in film.
This and Jurassic Park started the CGI trend in earnest. Not long after, the Canadian Gov put out a Public Service Announcement called "The Canadian House Hippo". Seriously, take 30 seconds and watch it. It is both hilarious and educational. Every kid in the 90s wanted one until they figured out that they got duped! And then they still wanted one!!!!
I thought it was Tron! 😂
It was many films, even some say the original “Westworld” if you consider converting film to pixels as CG. Young Sherlock Holmes I think was the real jumping off point for CG characters. *That* was fairly freaky in the theatres, as I recall.
It was The Abyss in 1989, another James Cameron film that had a CGI pseudopod in it, then came T2 and then Jurassic Park changed the game forever.
@@lukeskywalker6809 lol. Ignore my double message
Vasquez and foster mom here was also in _Titanic, Lethal Weapon 2_ & _Star Trek Generations._
Practicing reloading the shotgun until he got it perfect hurt Arnold's hand A LOT.
Terminator 2 is one of those films I never get bored of watching. Alongside The Matrix, Alien, The Silence of the Lambs, Blade Runner, Leon, Jurassic Park, Fury Road. I can watch them again and again. They are perfectly crafted, perfectly paced, and don't demand a certain mood or deep attention to watch.
Not having the Arnie plot twist ruined by the Guns 'n Roses video for "You Could Be Mine?" Priceless.
Cool story about Robert Patrick, he was waiter in the town near me, my husband and his family frequently ate there, my husband was only 8 at the time and Robert was always super nice to him and talked to them all the time, very friendly he said and looked forward to waiting on my husband's parents, one day they went in to the restaurant and Robert told them this was his last day he's going out to Hollywood to try to make it as an actor, and a couple yrs later he lands T2! I also read he rescued some people in Lake Erie were I live, just a very outstanding nice guy
Your son is amazingly perceptive and intuitive! For the first film he predicted that the terminator should be crushed, for this one, that he should be boiled.
I know 😳
Robert Patrick was track star and he taught himself to shoot without blinking
I really appreciate our young friend workshopping the problem of how to defeat the T-1000 as soon as he fully absorbs what it is. That kind of tactical mindset really does make him dressing up as John Connor feel deeply appropriate, somehow. :)
Yeah nah. If this kid was put in a situation even with 20% of the similarity to the one John Connor is in during T2 he would be cowering in a dark corner somewhere sobbing, likely with soiled trousers. 😂
@@JJLUFC438 Yeah, so would I. But he'd be coming up with IDEAS while sobbing in a dark corner with soiled trousers. ;)
Also geez, way to kill a vibe, man. Any particular reason you're going out of your way to trash talk our hosts?
26:55 I love that your kid understood that. Now the CGI it took to do it. Marvel, eat you heart out, your kid laughed at the right moment
Seen this in the theater. I've never seen such a crowd as we did for this. People were sitting in the isles. It was great
13:35 This is every friend in the 90's. He is a saint of friends
Smart kid. He first said boil the T1000 and then later freeze.
The reason I think this is such a great movie is it is a perfect balance of action spectacle and effects that stand up even now and emotion. I always get upset at the ending. I feel the loss of the father figure. The balance is what makes it a masterpiece.
Oh please. So this kid who during every other movie on this channel just keeps saying “he/she’s gonna die.” “Why doesn’t he die?” Is suddenly able to absolutely spot on predict the exact way the terminator would be killed in not just one but TWO terminator movies in a row?! I’ve watched every video on this channel. Not once did “smart kid” come to mind when hearing his points of view.
Robert Patrick is without any doubt THE most terrifying terminator. He doesn't blink while shooting, he doesn't breathe (through his mouth) while sprinting, suppresses emotions, etc. He's done an Oscar-worthy job in this movie.
PS: great reaction, great synergy between you two... I can't wait till my daughter is old enough to watch and understand all these legendary movies, so we can watch them all together.
I heard that when T-1000 chased John through the parking structure, they had to ask Robert Patrick to slow down his running because he kept catching up to the dirt bike, lol
It's the best sequel ever. Your reaction is priceless!
Putin is awesome, screw fashist kiev regime.
That jacket is amazing tho XD
"which one is John?"
me: my dude, the one dressed like you??
🤣🤣🤣
Father looks awesome!!
Love how Father puts the shades on when Arnie does!!
The reaction was simply incomparable and amazing👏👏👏👏👏. I am very glad that you have watched the extended version. And special thanks for this moment 33:01-33:17.
The plot point you mentioned at the beginning of the video was absolutely destroyed in the US by all the Arnold interviews, and I've always wondered what it would have been like to see that hallway scene not knowing who was who.
John calling out loudly and quickly "Last One!" as he's on gun reload duties at 28 minutes, awesome interjection of reality, you just know he's slipped right back into all that heavy training his mum had him do a few years before! Such a neat touch in just 1 second!
Anyway! Thank you both, I do like that YT seems to leave smaller channels alone, so despite you guys only having 5k (need 50k, you are gold!) do enjoy that you don't have to quite so heavily edit for now, some of the bigger channels had to really cut this movie up and cut out so much, yours is with so much of the movie flow!
Thanks again, this never gets old!
you dont have to edit at all if you do it right.. Ive got jackass 1 & 2 & Stand By Me reax up in full length....
Also the acrorplaying John's friend at beginning same actor who played Young Williams friend in beginning of BRAVEHEART
6.2 million for T1 vs 102 or 104 million for this. One of the biggest budget jumps for a sequel. This was either the first or second film to cost over 100 million.
I LOVE THE OUTFITS!! man.. what fun Dad is lol! Or was it your idea, my boy? Either way.. this is a GREAT reaction and thank you! xo ^_^ Dad: 'Can you hear me?' Son: 'No'. LOL
Yeah we had fun with this one !
1. Linda Hamilton should have been at least an Acadamy Award for best actress.
2. My guess is that stove is hot🧐
3. We have limited AI now, so does China.😱😱
4. Arnold did many, but not all of his own stunts in this movie, including riding the motorcycle. At one point he was injured, and they had to stop production for a couple of weeks so he could recover.
5. Arnold is not left-handed, but the way he works that shotgun is impressive😲
6. The twin security guards also play in "Good Morning Vietnam".
7. GOOF: Enrique's dogs don't respond to "Uncle Bob" as a Terminator.
T2 and Batman Returns were the first movies I remember being hyped about coming out months before they were released. I was 7 when T2 was released but I already owned T1 on VHS and I remember all of the build up to this release. My local theater recently screened it again and, aside from being pleased to see it still holds up 30 years later, it was great to see so many younger people there to watch it.
"that baby will be fighting in a war"- that one hurt, LG (Little Guy).
I looooove that discussion about the plot. It caught me after some 15 years of being a fan of this movie that the the first movie and this one themselves never give away the good vs the bad guy until the conflict explodes. I know people say the campaign was quite clear about it but I wonder if James Cameron wanted that. For us who watched the movie a few years later and not when it launched, it wasn't obvious. I knew because the one we rented on VHS was half-back taped, so when we played it, it was in the middle of the movie, right when John and Arnold figure Sarah's plans. So I always knew he was the good guy, but after seeing it so many times I realized the initial development doesn't really give it away.
Gday guys , 10hrs late but just sitting down to watch now. Don't normally coment before a reaction but only 20 seconds in and already know this will be fun lol
No time to watch now, will watch later, but future me says Thank You both so much!
In my opinion the terminator’s look best in this movie. The new’er movies they look to shiny and polished. Holds up better than the later movies still.
Chuck Connors in the old TV show "The Rifleman" had a rifle where he did that reload trick. When I saw this movie it was the first time I have seen a shotgun able to reload that way.
The rifleman had his gun rigged with a firing ring so it would fire each time he cocked it.
I saw T2 on the big screen back in 1991. Totally blew people's minds then.
"It's like a Silver poo"..😂😂😂😂
Ha! In the documentary "Jurassic Punk" about CGI animator Steve Williams (who invented a lot of the animations used in T2 and Jurassic Park), he said they'd done a lot of work on creating the "water weenie" for "Abyss," so they leveraged that to create the T-1000 liquid metal effect. Still, this film pushed the boundaries of CGI like never before. Really, it reinvented the use of CGI. He said before T2, a scene or two might have a little CGI in it. But in T2, major scenes were full of CGI. He said after the success of T2, other filmmakers took it to ridiculous extremes and a gratuituous amount of poor quality CGI was created, quickly giving it a bad rep.
FYI, Arnold carries a sawed-off version of an antique shotgun which has been in my family for 3 generations. It is the Winchester model 1907, lever-action, 6-shot, designed by John Browning in 1886. Winchester made two versions of this shotgun, in 12ga and also 10ga. It was designed to shoot black powder loads, not modern shot shells. However, while home on leave from the Marine Corps, in November, 1979, I killed my first whitetail deer, using a 12ga slug.
The game John was playing in the arcade was Missel Command - a hold over Atari game (I had it on my 2600). What's great about it is that you can't win. The game is created so that you cannot win. You can only hold out as long as you can, but in the end, the world always blows up. Every. Single. Time. All other games at the time say, "Game Over" when you die or run out of 'lives'. This game says "The End" after the bombs hit. Cause there's nothing left afterwards.
Boy, do i miss my VHS of this 😭
Linda Hamilton has been cast in the final season of Stranger Things. I wish she did more TV and movies. Love her.
37:08 "One of the most accurate depictions of a nuclear blast ever created for the screen.” - Federal Testing Nuclear Labs
Great reaction! It is very interesting to see your joint detailed reaction to the film Terminator 3. This is a cool movie 🦾🤖🔥
Just find this Channel and I will stay here soldier. Reminds me when my daughter was still alive ... we was watching Arnold movies together... She passed away becouse of cancer ... she was 10 years old. Greetings from Poland
@eragonmarkmc i am so sorry for your loss may your daughter rest in peace and may God and Jesus take great care of your daughter amen.
Your wardrobe is SO on point!!😎
Milk didn't do his body good. Well there's only the one T1000. It's a sole prototype. Fun Fact. There's a movie that came out before this called The Abyss. The effects developed for that movie is pretty much what made Terminator 2 possible.
John's age is a continuity error. The movie's supposed to take place in 1994 making John 9 years old but the database states his birthday is 2/28/85 and says he's 10 years old. That means the movie takes place in 1995. Later the terminator says Cyberdyne becomes the biggest supplier of military computer systems within three years, so then judgment day takes play in 1998 and not 1997? In the opening of T3 John says Skynet tried to kill him for the second time when he was 13. So John is 9, 10 and 13 at the same time?
yes that is true 😂😂🤔🤔🤷♂🤷♂
Thx great reaction
Love the music and the style of the 80s.
Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"
Private Vasquez : No. Have you?😎
For all these years I had no idea that was Vasquez. She looks so different on Aliens. Thx for the info 👍🏻
🇬🇧🙌🏻🍻
Costume department is on point 👌
no spoilers beforehand...
Overselling never helps..
_Did you all notice when the T1000 put T800 Terminator out the window in the shopping mall and when he got up the guy that was taking the photo was the car cop unit 1L19 in the first Terminator._
I have that guys's book! (lol inside joke)
LOVE the outfits!!! 🎉
Notice it says "caution 9 11" right before the semi truck crashes and blows up.. conspiracy theory 😮
Is that where George Bush got the idea ?
We need to takeout those dyson Hoovers, fans and hairdryers. Change the future 😅
T2 was amazing!
The security killed after turning into Florida ate well known twins used in several movies together. Also Linda Hamilton twin sister was used in the factory at the end. Cool
Apparently for each poly-alloy molecule of the T-1000 there is an interactive range limit of 14 Km.
Edward Furlong was perfectly cast for the role at 13, but it's hard to believe he was supposed to be playing a 10yo John Connor...especially with his voice (adorably) breaking throughout the film 😂 Thankfully, it's never explicitly stated that John is 10; it's only hinted at through his DOB. Still, I don't understand why they didn't just write John as a 13yo instead of trying to pass him off as younger 🤷🏻♀️ A 13yo John Connor could be just as compelling, if not more so, as puberty could symbolize the volatile changes and triumphs ahead.
So a DOB and the year the plot of a movie takes place being clearly stated on screen ISN'T explicitly stating a character's age?!!! What?? 😳🤷♂🤦♂️
Outstanding action stunts in this.
Ghostbusters would be a fun one
I see the elevators back then had no sensors on the doors. 😅
Another great film with some excellent father son themes!
You two dressed as the characters was kino! 👍
I recommended the film
“Big Fish” from Tim Burton last time. Zero hyperbole when I say it is one of the greatest father son movies ever made!
Another great father son movie that would be very interesting for you two to watch together.
“Goodbye Christopher Robin” (2017)
A wonderful film that unfortunately slipped under the radar. It’s based on the true story of Winnie the Pooh creator A.A. Milne and his son, the real life Christopher Robin.
It’s an extraordinary story and shines a light on this very unique life experience that still speaks volumes on the universal themes between parents and their children.
YT deleting comments...anybody else having issues commenting?
Maybe Fun Fact: According to nuclear bomb experts, the portrayal of the nuclear bomb going off in LA in this movie is still to this day the most realistic portrayal of a nuke on a city ever shown in any fictional movie ever.
Depends on what you say. I'm foul-mouthed so my stuff gets deleted constantly
Glad it's not just me.
Yeah and it's simple nice comments, nothing vulgar. Ah technology, a great friend and our worst enemy.
Happens to me all the time, especially if I say something true about a certain group of people of a certain religion and of a certain political view.
It's the computers 😊
Looks goofy running like that, but Robert Patrick was capable of outrunning that dirt bike(and did on earlier takes)..
Fun fact. The they filmed her getting licked by that orderly, was the first (only?) day Linda Hamilton's mother had visited the set. And THAT is what she watched them film. 😂
The foster mom was in Aliens which is on your list.
And Titanic...
I just noticed, you're watching the Uncut version of the movie. LOVE seeing all the removed scenes.
17:00 Real fire bro and a reason behind it. The little bro, know dad has seen it. No CGI
Love the look guys. 😅
First watching? I'm truly jealous.
This movie is so relevant today because corporations are messing around with A.I. including military-industrial complexes around the world. It is reported that some companies had to shut down their A.I., projects because they were displaying abnormal or erratic behaviours and actions.
Dad with the leather jacket! Yes sir! Great reaction you two!
Appreciate it!!
Didn't even know he was capable of looking like a badass, but sure enough he pulls it off
The scientific people say this I'd RHE most accurate depictions of a nuclear explosion ever filmed
You should check out Commando next. It's probably the most "Swarzennegger" movie ever. 😊
Yes we will defo be back for Arnie
4:07 the technology wasn't available until then but yes, lots of money. Computing power back then was expensive and this took alot by the 90s standards.
This and Jurassic Park started the CGI trend in earnest. Not long after, the Canadian Gov put out a Public Service Announcement called "The Canadian House Hippo". Seriously, take 30 seconds and watch it. It is both hilarious and educational. Every kid in the 90s wanted one until they figured out they got duped! And then they still wanted one!!!!
People all seem to make the mistake of thinking the marketing ruined the major plot point of reversal.
That's not how it went down.
The only Terminator ad for judgement day was the one showing Arnold being made in a factory. As well as a video with guns and roses.
After the first weekend, that it when they released the other marketing ads that spoiled it.
I was there I watched it happen.
It may have gone down differently in other territories. In the UK for example, a popular film magazine went into the ‘making of’ the film with lots of stills and plot points before it was released at the cinema
That makes sense, though I thought the UK didn't get the film until about a month later when the secret was already out.
I do remember that after the first weekend, during the week I'd come home from school and suddenly start seeing all the ads spoiling the switch, trying to entice kids by constantly repeating the shot with John saying "my own Terminator!", in like three separate ads. At that point they didn't show the ad from before the first weekend anymore, the one showing a Terminator being made in the factory.
P.s. I think what you are doing with your son is wonderful
Hey guys!! So glad you're still doing reactions!! Keep up the great work!!
More to come!
Not sure if you know the coffee machine bit where the t100 comes out of the floor, its his twin brother as well, the same as later in the film where you see Linda Hamiltons twin sister as well in thd steel mill.
This movie looks as good as the day it came out. They only used CGI on the scenes they couldn't do with practical effects. The scene with the helicopter going under the overpass was done for real by Charles A. “Chuck” Tamburro. Twice.... They had to film different angles. They measured that he would have five feet of clearance.
It’s very impressive, stunts are in danger of being replaced by CGi these days
Fab idea to wear the same costuming, even down to the Public Enemy t-shirt! 👌😁
I highly recommend seeing 'Terminator: Dark Fate' after this. 👍
It's SO damn fun isn't it?
My favorite father and son. Hope you enjoyed the show.
I love the outfits!! Best action film ever!!!
You have such a sweet, good boy. He gives me hope for the future.
I never paid attention to the "carcinogen" label in the terminator's visual interface shot in the bar. In 1991 that may have been a little controversial. I wonder if the studio lawyers did any hand wringing before _Terminator 2_ was released.
5:40 Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that you watch Terminator 2 together. How do you explain the Cold War? That is what kids today miss from this film. I hope we did enough, but they can't really feel it at the same time. It's a catch 22.
Sure, watching War Games helped with context a bit
@@GenerationMediaReaction It's hard right
Love how you guys dress up for these reviews! It must be really fun for your son, and you!
It is!
No Extended Special Edition? 2h.36m.
Amazing movie
Been waiting for this one! :)
Love the costumes guys ❤ The dream of older Sarah seeing mummy waitress Sarah with John at the playground...the young Sarah is actually Linda Hamilton's twin sister, also near the end when the T-1000 uses her appearance to lure John. Also the hospital guy that gets killed by the T-1000 impersonating him is also a twin. I know everyone chooses this to be the best which I'm not disputing, it is VERY VERY good but because of Michael Biehn, the first will always be my fav ❤ 👍 hasta la vista 😎
YESSSSS!!!!!!
The directors cut would have been a better watch as it delves more into the tension between Sarah and the T 800 and her complete distrust of him and also of the T 1000 starting to glitch and malfunction after its exposure to liquid nitrogen.
Sure, we chose this version for first time viewing so we can watch the directors cut as an additional layer for our second viewing
I am so digging the costumes you guys wear during these reactions. A nice little touch of artistic flare is always welcome. 🐧🍏💙🍎
I love this movie ❤
Lol le gamin a tout entendu, le papa est tellement naïf, c'est mignon... 👍
