    He played it off too. Then he tried to stall T-1000 when he eventually spotted John by saying “hey I think I saw that kid you were looking for.” That’s a homie right there

      Tells the cop he doesn’t know the person they’re looking for…then immediately walks directly to his friend and points directly at the cop

        He’s a homie not James fucking Bond.

    Instinctively? No. This is LA, it was learned behaviour. Learned for a reason.

    I just rewatched this a couple months ago. Now I want to watch it again. T2 is one of the all-time greats of cinema history. Arny is awesome in the role, the story is excellent, the directing is perfect. Edward will forever be John Connor with every other actor doing their best to fit his character, because that’s John.

      Also Robert Patrick did so well in the role for the T-1000. He nailed like uncanny valley of the machine being so close to human and then completely inhuman at a moments notice, and his practice on sprinting and firing a weapon without blinking, and only breathing through his nose is something that you don’t notice because it’s what you’d expect a machine to do, and then only looking back do you realize that yeah, he’s sprinting full speed at a car with his mouth closed without blinking.

        Yes! Both terminators were so weirdly inhuman without being inhuman. And it was the 1980s and they just kind of nailed that with total realism that had no reason for being as good as it was.

        It was like a new chapter of sci-fi really leaning into the realistic expectations of the future instead of the fantastical versions. It’s the same reason why Bladerunner was so good and stood the test of time. No bullshit interpretation. Just, “Everyone calm down about your ideas of the future. What would actually happen? How would this thing actually be if it really happened?”

        As Patrick explained in the Empire interview, the first time they filmed the run at the mall, before the semi-truck sequence, he closed the gap on Furlong entirely. His own words, included in the viral clip: “That’s me. First time I did the run, I caught the kid.

        James Cameron confirms:

        I’d say he doesn’t get the credit he deserves, but he does. He absolutely does. He put in the work to gift us the T-1000. And we should all be thankful.

        He runs so fucking fast it’s scary in its own 😰😮

      I work with a John Connor and I always reference him as the saviour of the human race. He’s a pretty good sport about it.

      I like T1 more and don’t even see a reason to make T2. The 1st movie had nice enough ending.

      • ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip ⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        I love T1, more than T2 even, but let’s not kid ourselves. T2 is legitimately better on nearly every front

        I don’t disagree

        I really like looking at the Terminator and 12 Monkeys in relation to La Jetée. Both are very different interpretations of the original concept but somehow keep that sense of existential dread. T2 is a great movie, but it’s a straight forward action / redemption film.

      • im_fine_sandy@nord.pub ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Yeah I don’t see a reason to make T2 either. I mean there’s already T1. If they hasn’t made T2 then T1 could’ve just been T.

      It ain’t that kid’s first time lying to the cops. He’s done it enough to be confident this will be fine. I mean, even if he gets caught, what are they going to do?

        Yeah, Bobby Budnick knows how to tell a convincing lie. He learned it at summer camp.

      Moisture sensors have chemicals, moving parts - it doesn’t work that way.

    NEVER talk to the cops.

      If you have a problem and call the cops, now you have two problems.

    • BlackPenguins@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Right, don’t lie to a cop. Talk is the key word here. Lying to a cop could get you charged with obstruction because you lead them down a wild goose chase. Saying I don’t know or no comment is using your constitutional right.

    It’s gotta be absolute mind fuck for John when he eventually meets his best friend in the future and realizes he has to send his buddy back in time to fuck his mom so he can be conceived.

      I know this was a popular myth I liked to discuss when I was 15, but in one of the later movies John selects someone else to fuck his mum instead.

        Folks don’t like folks who talk about other terminator movies 'round these parts.

    I haven’t watched it in probably 20 years. Past time for a rewatch, which is good, because there’s nothing on TV ATM.

      Holds up but it’s eeriely unpopulated by today’s standards.

      The mall is the only scene that really has extras.

      Most of the film has like 4 people in frame, max. After awhile it becomes a little distracting.
