>You missed watching the best kino on screen anon
well, YOU did
Those cement flood control channels have always been a kino location for filming. Every film shot in LA should find an excuse to use them.
I watched it on the big screen in Dubuque Iowa :]
sup fellow oldgay.
;))
Did the know Arnold was the good terminator before you went in?
I watched it on a re-release for the 25 anniversary.
Saw it at the drive in with my mom in 1991
Did you get head?
...
Answer my question.
Kys
Okay, headless ass homie.
I watched it for the first time on tv and i cried when the terminator died. My parents waked up and grounded me for watching so late in the night
sounds like a good memory
Nice, did you finger her?
I have a ton of memories seeing movies at the drive-in in 1989 with my mom and siblings
Honey I Shrunk the Kids
Batman
Ghostbusters 2
The Little Mermaid
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
Back to the Future Part 2
I only missed it because my father wouldn't take me to see it.
Instead he'd come home and brag about how good the movie had been! >:(
>playing PS2 at buddy's house
>start going through his parent's DVD collection
>T1/T2 boxset
>bud said there's boobies
>lets watch
>T1 was fricking awesome but fricking terrified me
>let's watch T2 now
>I'm kinda scared but okay...
>don't worry bro he's a good guy now
>movie blew me away
>gave me an arnie boner
>20+ years later
>sitting on Cinemaphile
My buddy was an butthole, could you imagine if I never knew that arnie turned good in T2?
its the most spoiled twist in the history of cinema, literally what were they even thinking
It was never a twist, was it? I remember all the marketing and trailers showed him as a good guy and we knew the T1000 was the new bad guy.
By 1991 no one seriously believed Arnold was going to be the bad guy in an action film.
The issue is that if you just see T2 blind you'd think that the gimmick for T2 is just that there's two terminators going after John, not that Arnold is a good guy. So in the actual movie, its a twist but in reality its spoiled by the marketing and wider context like you said.
However they could've easily marketed the movie with the double terminator gimmick and made it look like he only turns into a good guy later in the movie by having Sarah do robosurgery on him after they've managed to disable him somehow with the help of Miles Dyson. It could've been a fantastic twist where the entire audience is on the edge of their seats wondering how John is going to get out being cornered in a hallway by two terminator and the entire thing slows down as John realizes he's completely fricked, only for one to reveal that he's a good guy and always was. That's when the entire packed opening night room realizes they've been bamboozled by the marketing and the hype goes off the charts and the two terminators start fighting each other and you realize that there's not going to be an single climatic terminator vs terminator fight at the end after they've managed to turn Arnie good, the entire movie is that.
No need to change anything in the movie other than keep the scene where they dig around in Arnie's head for the theatrical cut.
>is on the edge of their seats wondering how John is going to get out being cornered in a hallway by two terminator and the entire thing slows down as John realizes he's completely fricked, only for one to reveal that he's a good guy and always was
But thats what happen in the movie moron. Connor runs at the beggining he is ambushed by both Terminators, and Arnold takes the gun out to shoot Connor but instead shoots the t1000.
Only that Cameron isnt a hack and did that by showing instead of telling in a single 30 seconds scene. And saved himself 45 minutes of exposition.
I wonder if the twist wasn't handled poory and ruined beforehand.
>doesn't kill anyone in the bar
>Bad To The Bone starts playing
>steals sunglasses
>T-1000 has no music
>Doesn't emote, looks menacing
In hindsight, it's easy, but I think you would've felt something was off without knowing about the twist.
that might have more to do with the fact that Arnold was one of the biggest stars at his peak, while Robert Patrick was a literal who
A bit unrelated, but as a young kid I remember hearing about the Star Wars movies, the Jedi and how one of the movies was called Return of the Jedi. Just from hearing it, I thought the Jedi was something like Jed-eye and imagined the movie having some giant magic eye.
Well according to your story he only had to tell you because you were a pussy, so don't blame him
this led to a lot of shitty action movies
however, at least there was a real strong real masculine character
Unfortunately the masculine character was Linda Hamilton
must've been cool to be unspoiled about the fact that arnold's character is actually the good one this time
>must've been cool to be unspoiled about the fact that arnold's character is actually the good one this time
you'd have to have been living under a rock, we were flooded with ads showing it and the liquid metal effects, both of which would have been cool surprises
it was in all the trailers my dude
T1 is better
I still listen to Tahnee Cain and the Tryanglz.
YOU GOT ME BURNIN
where do I get a jacket like that
a biker bar didn't you watch the movie
just watched this the other day for the Nth time
it holds up so goddamn well
it was definitely a perfect period piece
>arcades
>pay phones
>california's aqueduct before it was dismantled/destroyed due to time
>classic cars and bikes
>lingo
>smoking
>old crt tvs
>etc
T2 is a shitty family friendly remake of T1, the true kino. It seems YOU the one who missed the best kino on screen.
How did Cameron get away with making a beat for beat remake of the first film?
Was T2 the Terminator movie he wanted to make but didn't have the budget for?
he wrote them back to back, i think his original vision was a trilogy with the final movie being the future war movie we always wanted and never got, with the climax being the resistance smashing skynet and the final scene being the t800 going back in time and kyle reese following. i remember reading he wanted reese to feature heavily in the 2nd movie as well, but i can't remember the details there

cameron knows how to take scifi horror/thriller and turn it into action kino
I did. And the crowd waiting for the next showing was huge. it was a weekend night and a party atmosphere. It was the first time in my entire life I'd ever seen police hanging around inside as security. It was at this huge theater complex where all the movies were upstairs and downstairs was the arcade and I think gift shops and even a restaurant.
I saw fellowship in the theaters. It was very party like, nerds were all dressed up. We drove for an hour just to go see it in Lincoln City Oregon
It was awesome
my dad took my brothers and i, i was 12. peak movie for that age, nothing's ever come close to seeing the trilogy back to back to back at 12, 13, 14. read the books for the first time during the theatrical run, too. all that + shit like the return of the king game and battle for middle earth, what a time to be a young nerd
Saw it in theaters
I saw it in the theater in 1991
I also had Arnold sign a poster for me years later in LA.
You can suck it with your troony movies, I'm rewatching 80's & 90's kino.
I found a kinoplex that reruns old movies. They're playing Heat next week
Grimehouses are back?
Yeah I thought I saw some new things like that in my downtown recently.
They're not as pornographic though.
few and far between, I'm afraid. If I'd had a small theater playing old stuff all the time and charging like $7 per ticket I'd be there all the time
I have softened in my elderly 20s on Aliens and respect it for its pacing and compelling character work with Ripley.
I haven't had a similar turn for T2. Idk, it just doesn't stand out to me as an adult. At least T1 has grungy urban atmosphere, which is really uncommon now.
No, I got to see Iron Giant and Treasure Planet in cinemas when no one else but me an Nan were at the cinemas.
I had no idea how unique those films were at the time though, so I was pretty disappointed with most other cartoon films in comparison when I saw other films in cinemas after that.
did you get head?
From Nan?
I dunno, I have her urn here so it's not too late for me.
Oh I saw it in 1991 and it was glorious. No one acted like an idiot. No cell phones. No bullshit.
I saw it on opening day when I was 13 and it's still my favorite theatrical experience followed by.....
Batman 89
Return of the Jedi
A Nightmare On Elm Street 4
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
!!!FACT!!!
It's a very good action flick, however the Kinoseurs will not neglect to point out it's
a) pussyfied
b) goyslopified
compared to Terminator 1, Cameron's actual masterpeiece
>rreeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrr
>*distantly* reeerrrrrrr
>chug chug chug chug chug chug
>*dun dun*
those original colors are so refreshing
modern grading is fricking criminal
Why does this look like someone added bad film effects on this?
you're jaded I guess by the apps that have filters
>all that flickery shit
do boomers really? LMFAO my phone takes better quality video
the film would get gradually degraded after hundreds of plays through projectors and then shipped around to various theaters, taken apart, and respliced together
This is obviously a scan of an old well-used film after it's played the dollar theaters for a year or 2
and yeah I get nostalgic for it. Keep your too dark digital flat ugly shit that's downloaded to the projector nowadays.
I'd be pretty disappointed, I mean, this looks like garbage. You'd need a lot of faith to think this would turn out well. Then again, Cameron had already earned his stripes.
I watched it in 1992 at my friends house. His mom made us kool-aid, but she barely put any sugar in and it was bitter as hell.
>american
>calls literal sugar water "bitter"
Dwayne Johnson is the new Steven Seagal.
Imagine the first thing you see in the movie is perceived to be 8 feet tall, but its really a 12 inch miniature.
trying to think of a good penis joke for you
i have a small penis
>infiltrators
>8 feet tall
>"The Galleria?"
>good terminator arnie
no thanks
What's amazing is point break was released a week beforehand, another amazing movie by the same Chad director.
>same Chad director.
what are you trying to say?
>mfw noone talks about the Pescadero break out sequence as one of the greatest action thriller set pieces in history
I like when he puts his hand on that woman's face and throws her
>never watch this movie
>see references to it constantly across my life
>Friend puts it on
>Jokingly say we have all seen it too much
>We actually sit and watch it all
>I watch it for the first time even with full knowledge of almost every plot beat
>still charmed
>love the little scenes of Arnold and the kid just talking
>legit tear up when he says he has to go at the end
WTF, how does Cameron speak to the human soul so effortlessly?
