Terminator 2...

[deygos]

this is bugging me...

there's a bit at the start when sarah connor is doing her narration vo thing & captain john connor (the old scarred one) is scanning the battlefield with binoculars -

you dont even have to watch this bit carefully its so obvious - he moves exactly like a terminator cyborg type would. question is does anyone know y?

lmfao its the story that makes t2 better than all the other action shit.

T2 was a rehash of T1 which ripped off a story from the Twilight Zone series, T2 just had better special effects, which if I remember correctly was its major selling point at the time.


People went for them, not the storyline

Although the philosophy of it was nice, not original, but nice

I always found T1 a lot better.
far darker and moodier then T2, which was just a special effect fest

t2 would have to rehash elements of t1 - its a sequel. whether it's a rip off of another story is irrelevant, its the way its told is more important.

t2's effects still stand up face to face with the cgi infestation we're seeing right now & aye the effects were so uber for that time that it was a big enuff selling point to go see the movie

aye T1 has an edge to it - particularly the music which is a lot darker but t2 aint just a sfx fest


anyway all this shit dont matter lol, i just wanna know if anyone can explain why j.connor behaves like a terminator in t2 @ the start. in-joke by cameron mb???

 

[Spinky]

I don't think he does to be honest, he just wouldn't be the slack kid he used to be since he's now a hardened soldier, and the leader of humanity no less (essentially).

Nothing to laugh about, and at the time that the voiceover's going on, he's stood there watching his men die and looks to be deep in thought, thinking about another strategy perhaps?

 

[Munkey-]

probably wondering why his plots failed as a child

 

[deygos]

hmmm i dunno watch it again. seriously the scanning movement is very very deliberate, every movement is broken down - its not fluid

i reckon its just cameron takin the piss a bit. either that or connor has been "upgraded" , its just buggin me lol that's all. even when i saw t2 first time i noticed it & thot it was a setup for t3

 

[-yoda-]

i wanna see terminator 3 ) hopefully it be out soon
