Lil Swamp Booger Baby posted:I can't support Kyle Reese, not after he stole that hobo's pants, "That son of a bitch took my pants." the hobo wailed. I can't stand that, was like watching a dog get kicked. I understand it's serious business and the whole world is at stake, but there are lines you just don't cross. LOL Ok first, he was a bum, not a hobo. Hobos ride on trains. Second, lol. I've been thinking about those pants since the mid 80's. I mean, Kyle just came from the post apocalypse future, so he's probably fine with the pants, right?

I saw T2 opening night at a theater in Lawrence MA, right off 495. On a double date, and I was with this woman that was my everything.... Every time I drive by that theater, I think of that night, of T2. One of my most cherished movie memories. And so as I was traveling 495 the last few years I was saddened to see that theater closed. I haven't driven by in a while, it may be gone by now. I have all these Terminator memories intertwined with that place in Lawrence.

Agreed about Terminator, disagree about Aliens. The T1 v T2 debate. To be clear, I think we can ALL agree both movies are absolute classics and beloved. So what we're talking about is just nuances, points of subjectivity. Not hating. So, that said, I think T1 is the far superior movie. One of the all time great horror movies. T2 is awesome, and is a great sci fi movie, but is far more a "Summer Bombastic Box Office!" movie and it certainly succeeds at that. But when I compare the two, that ranks it lower to me than the small, tense, terrifying T1. It's a low budget indie film V the same director being given a bazillion dollars. That director still kicks rear end and makes a classic, but it's an entirely different beast.

Panic! At The Tesco posted:yeah i really liked the ending of T3 and they should have continued the franchise from there. instead it feels like they just kept trying to make a terminator 2 sequel That's EXACTLY how I feel about every movie after T3: They keep trying to make a T2 sequel.

BiggerBoat posted:To be fair, that is a low point and Furlong overall is not great. T2 also has the whole "Arnie the Terminator is good now and learning how to love arc" which is a whole thing. Compare that to any arcs in the original movie.

I absolutely love the second act in Terminator in the police station. You get that classic horror movie 2nd act "oh we're safe now, thank god!" feeling for a bit - while Reese is ranting like a madman in the background that everyone here is hosed! Then of course everyone there is hosed, the Terminator is here.

BiggerBoat posted:I agree that there's a lot of corny poo poo in T2 but none of it is really terrible enough to ruin the experience for me. I agree with many of your points but want to point out so hard that establishing these hate/love dynamics sucks so much when trying to compare two things you love. Like, I literally love T2 as a movie, it's one of my favorites of all time. BUT I think the original is even better. But when trying to discuss the differences why, can it not be helped to be a "hater"? I will watch any and all of them whenever, because they are all amazing.

steinrokkan posted:Ngl, the idea of Skynet just sending hordes of terminators to kill people all the time ruins the concept. You short-changed Skynet when she was buying Snickers at the gas station? Terminator on your granddad. You were late with the takeout to the Cyberdyne building? Your mom is terminated. Late on rent? You bet your uncle's on the termination list. Agreed. But the entire premise of the movie is built on time travel, so..... It worked well enough in the original, but as you have more and more sequels....

Man with Hat posted:Where in space though? Let's say an hour time travel, do you end up 67,000 miles into space, 514000 miles into space, 1,3 million miles into space or some other number? I'm sticking with time machines make themselves the center of the universe and everything rotates around them because it's all relative Whoever is smart enough to invent a working time machine also somehow figured out a way to plot time/space coordinates. Don't ask me how, I didn't build the drat thing!

McSpanky posted:Yeah, Man with Hat is saying that the Earth isn't the only thing moving in the universe. The Sun is orbiting the Milky Way, the Milky Way is moving relative to the neighboring galaxies in our local cluster, every galaxy in the universe is moving relative to each other and the universe itself is expanding. If relative motion is a problem for time travel it's an unimaginably enormous problem, so gently caress it, just handwave it. ITT we develop a working time machine

Lena Headey was a bad rear end Sarah Connor. I wonder if watching the show for the first time after her role in GoT will change opinions.
