The "Terminator" series currently has 5 movies, 1 TV series, and countless fan works. This series can be said to have grown up watching me. Filming started before I was born, and it will still be in theaters 30 years later. No matter how the quality of the sequel drops, I will not hesitate to go to the cinema and spend 2 hours paying for my feelings.
The highest quality of the entire series is recognized as "Terminator 2" in 1991, which is rare in movie history, and the quality of the sequel is better than the case of the first edition. Of course, the first "Terminator" in 1984 is not weak at all, and its quality is quite different from the other three.
The so-called T1 and T2 in the film critics actually refer to the first and second parts of the Terminator. But you will rarely hear what T3, T4, T5. Because only the classics reach a certain level, can they be qualified to use the simplest alphanumeric group cooperation abbreviation, and will not be mistaken for the aircraft terminal.
In my cognition, T1 and T2 have always been the backbone of the "Terminator" series, and other sequels, TV series, or fans, are all supplements or derivatives of the main plot of T1 and T2.
Therefore, I will start with T1 and T2, where the plots can be organically combined, and Cameron personally writes the scripts and mirrors.
When Cameron was a slash youth who was a truck driver and screenwriter, he occasionally had a terrible nightmare. In the dream, there is a cruel killer covered in metal bones, tirelessly trying to put himself to death, no matter how hard Cameron makes, he can't stop the machine killer from taking his life. When Cameron woke up from the nightmare, he immediately smeared the image of the killer remaining in his mind on the drawing board. And wrote this terrifying and terrifying killer story.
So the Terminator series was born in this way.
In the not-too-distant future, the artificial intelligence robot Skynet will be awakened, treating all humans as aliens, and wanting to kill all of them. In 1997, Skynet prompted the outbreak of a nuclear war, and the lives of 3 billion people on the planet were wiped out. This day is called "Judgment Day".
At this point, the world has fallen into the domination of robots. The only remaining humans formed a resistance army to resist the suppression of robots.
After an arduous confrontation, the Rebels were finally about to disintegrate the robot's rule under the leadership of John Connor, but Skynet launched its ultimate weapon, the "Space-time Replacement Machine", and sent the killing machine codenamed Terminator back to the past in 2029. , An attempt to assassinate key figures in the human resistance army, thereby rewriting the outcome of being overturned by humans.
In 1984, T1 kicked off, Skynet sent the latest model T800 Terminator back to one night of the year. The twisted time and space shredded the tranquil air, and the star lightning instantly came to this defenseless human habitat. On the blue planet. The naked, majestic Arnold got up and the first action was to shoot the dying world with sharp eyes. He had only one goal-John Connor, the leader of the future human resistance army, and his mother Sarah. Connor's life. Ruin the last hope of mankind.
Surrounded by strong muscles, it is a robot that cannot negotiate with you, cannot reason with you, and will not feel any emotions such as sympathy, regret or fear. He will never stop until he achieves his goal, and will never stop.
The leader of the rebellion in the future, John Connor, also sent back a protector-Kyle Liss. He was equally brave and decisive, but he was the offspring of humans from the wasteland of the future, full of emotions and desires just like us. His task is to do his best to protect Sarah.
Both sides set off at the same starting line, searching for a human target in an unfamiliar past who knows nothing about the future.
Terminator Arnold is Skynet's newest combat robot T800, which has been given the same appearance as humans, and can even bleed and sweat like humans. What he is good at is to dive into human society and then end his goal. The Terminator not only possesses super power that humans cannot match, but also possesses the wisdom that can compete with humans. In the T800's program settings, it will first search for any tools that can hide your true identity, and will not let your exposed body become a constraint that threatens the execution of the task.
Then, he quickly targeted several women named Sarah Connor in the phone book. Indiscriminately destroy the flowers one by one regardless of the indiscriminate nature.
In addition to knowing Sarah Connor's name, the human warrior Kyle Liss also saw Sarah when she was young in an old photo presented by John Connor. Even though she has never met, Sarah always keeps Kyle in her dreams. Not only is this woman a legend who can foresee the future, but also the mother of John Connor, who brought the dawn to mankind. It was even more troublesome in Kyle's heart because of an indescribable sentiment. Although experiencing the turbulence of time and space travel, he still remembers this old photo still fresh, remembering every line and every wrinkle in the photo. In the dark, his mission of returning to the past seemed to be not so simple to protect Sarah. Kyle himself couldn't explain why he couldn't help falling in love with someone he had never met before.
The Terminator quickly found the real Sarah, and Kyle had waited for the rabbit to be ready to welcome the Terminator. The two sides met in a noisy bar. Unsuspecting Sarah hadn't had time to know the ins and outs of the matter, and Yinggeyanwu's bar had become a slaughterhouse for killing machines. When Kyle stretched out a helping hand to the panicked Sha, and said the simple but classic line "If you want to live, follow me". The switch of historical reincarnation was turned on.
Kyle brought Sarah's idea to try to avoid the endless pursuit of the Terminator. Cameron's dream became a nightmare for countless audiences in the movie. Arnold's angular facial lines and impeccable bodybuilding, coupled with the cold and solemn eyes, is the embryo of a killing machine. It creates an aura of despair all the time, making viewers always nervous and unable to relax the fate of the master.
In addition to the suffocating pursuit, the Terminator self-repairing scene is also my childhood nightmare. In the mottled video of the video, Arnold uses a scalpel to cut his arm open, revealing the bloody mechanical skeleton, and then buckle it seriously. The broken bionic eyeball is shown by a mechanical eye shining red light. If such a lens wants to introduce China's big screen, it is absolutely impossible to hide from the chopper of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. Although it seems that the plastic model is full of sense now, it is too inconsistent, but the special effects technology of makeup is far behind the 80s now, this kind of picture has enough persuasiveness, and fully meets the conditions of becoming a childhood shadow.
After removing his left eye, in order to continue to hide his identity and perform tasks, Arnold's classic sunglasses shape was officially unveiled on the big screen for the first time.
T800 came to the police station where Sarah and Kyle were and asked the front desk to let them go. Arnold, who has a strong Austrian accent and seldom speaks his lines. After failing to communicate with the front desk, he simply uttered the old slogan that has lasted for decades-"I WILL BE BACK"
When he came back, he drove into the police station without thinking. The safest refuge in people's hearts, the sense of security disappeared instantly. The Terminator skillfully used the looted human weapons to bloodbath the entire police station.
Of course, Kyle still tried his best to protect Sarah's safety. The escaped two chose an affordable motel with a kitchen. Kyle settled the bill with a handful of banknotes that were obviously no longer needed in his time. Then he expressed his admiration for Sarah. A pair of men and women on the road to the end of the world, holding the attitude of why not to try when the end is coming, they naturally took off their clothes to interpret the standard sex scenes of an R-rated movie. , The composer is also very advanced in the art of music, adapting the background sound of a passionate drama with the main melody full of terminator metal rust, and matching the expression of the hero and heroine.
The cunning T800 still managed to find the address of the motel, resolutely carrying out the task of hunting down. After a bombardment of special effects, Kyle and Sarah witnessed the death of T800 in flames. If you don't pay attention to the progress bar of the movie, you will think that you can finally wake up from the nightmare. Because no creature can survive such a raging fire.
But how can T800 be in the pool? After the skin and flesh and blood wrapped in the metal skeleton were burned, the true face of the Terminator finally surfaced. The hideous T800 crawled out of the fire. The purely mechanical T800 was no different from a skeleton except for the metallic color. Although the explosion affected his power system, it would not change the instructions to end Sarah in his program. The desperate sense of oppression hits again. If you were having nightmares before, now it is like a ghost pressing bed, clearly awake, but can't get up.
An old mechanical processing factory has become the last refuge for the desperate mandarin ducks. Kyle used his own life to truly interpret the once-popular joke on Douyin, "Did you ever work hard for others in your life". Kyle took out the last detonator he made, and detonated it at a very close distance to kill him with the Terminator. Under the violent explosion, the mortal body of the flesh naturally cannot escape the ending of Xiang Xiaoyu's death. Although Kyle is the most serious male character in the movie, the protagonist Halo has also lost his immunity under the terminator's lust.
As for T800, although his legs were blown off, he was battered into a hemiplegia. But still carrying out the final instruction as before. Without Kyle's protection, Sarah can only face the aggressive mechanical killer alone. Her only means of renewing her life is to use the hydraulic equipment in the processing plant to deal with the machines. This also seems to indicate Sarah's inherent nature to fight against the machine to the end. From this day on, she will transform towards the legend of saving the destiny of mankind in the future world.
In the end, Kyle did not give his life in vain. Sarah fulfilled her mission and completed the final blow to the Terminator and became the Terminator's Terminator.
At this moment, Sarah was already the last prophet who could predict the fate of mankind before the machine ruled the world. This responsibility made her dare not slacken. Let her completely refresh the trajectory of her life, from being an indisputable restaurant waiter into a conveyer of human hope. At the same time, the life crystallization of her and Kyle has slowly bred in the mother's womb. The future human warriors are not only first-class military literacy, but also good at men and women. Today there is "one shot one kill" and ancient times "one shot one birth". Kyle grasped the only night and completed the real mission of this time travel.
At the end of the movie, Sarah drives a jeep across the border to prepare carefully for a cruel future. A child from a foreign country secretly took a photo of her with a firm but slightly sad expression. She collected this photo, but she never thought that this photo will be the source of Kyle's thoughts about herself in the future. She continued to speed on the remote road, like an independent fighter, stroking herself and Kyle's child across her belly, and gave him a meaningful name-John Connor.
The story of T1 came to an end. This small production, which only drew $6.5 million in sponsorship, eventually won more than $70 million in the box office. The story of the movie is actually not particularly intriguing, but in science fiction, action, horror and other types of movies, there has been a dark horse with a high ranking since then. At this point in time in 1984, T1 is a milestone no matter from any perspective. Not to mention Cameron's super money saving ability. No one would have imagined that a truck driver could manage such limited resources and squeeze out an excellent movie that can match the words "went out". And T1 is even more commendable, because it has deeply explored the possibility of Arnold becoming a professional actor after giving up his status as a bodybuilder. This film IP, which spanned more than 30 years, has since been firmly tied to Arnold.
In the following years, Cameron naturally did not have time to take care of his truck driver's old business and devoted himself to the film industry. He was definitely not a prolific film director. In the following 7 years, he only created 3 film works. It was not because there was no olive branch of a film company, but he was not following the line of a traditional commercial film director. Zen heart polishing works is one of the biggest differences between Kashen and other commercial film directors. The Terminator series has only ushered in its sequel since T1 was released in the 7th year, but Cameron wanted by no means a stubborn dog, but a climax again.
In 1991, T2 came. The budget was raised to 100 million, and almost all of the original crew continued to perform. The style of Terminator has been well continued. And in the special effects technology and movie theme, there has been a qualitative leap.
With the preparation of T1, the story of T2's crossing is more convincing, but how to use this old bottle to pack new wine has become a challenge that Cameron has never encountered.
But God of Cards is God of Cards after all, he used the same routine to tell a more exciting story.
The opening of T2 can be said to be exactly the same as T1. Skynet once again turned on the machine of time-space replacement and transmitted the Terminator to the past, in 1997.
Arnold appeared naked again, still showing off in the frightening T800 image. Arnold's worth is no longer what it used to be. I believe this nude must have cost Cameron a lot of silver.
As usual, T800 finds a suitable dress as a disguise. The method is still to give the owner of the clothes an old punch.
This time, Arnold is no longer a fledgling boy 7 years ago. The stylist dare not neglect, so when the well-dressed T800 puts on sunglasses, this cool terminator image can be handsome. You have a nosebleed. Not to mention the mechanical Harley motorcycle as his mount. At that time, the degree of imitation of this shape was definitely not worse than that of the current Lu Han and Wu Kris.
On the other end, a little warrior as strong and sturdy as Kyle Lis has also completed time travel and arrived in 1997. With cold eyes and vigorous skills, he brought down a policeman who didn't know the truth in two or two, put on his clothes, and hijacked his police car.
At this time, the plot began to imitate the traditional routine of T1, and both sides began to pursue the same goal, but this time, it was no longer John Connor's mother, but directly pointed to John himself.
The reason is very simple. Even though Kyle fragrantly died that night in 1984, the spring night was worth a lot of money. He didn't even know that he had completed the most difficult task. Under the pursuit of the Terminator, in the shortest possible time, capture the hearts of legends and help John Connor get the top spot among hundreds of millions of competitors. It was an impossible task, but Kyle did it. He thought he was an insignificant little person, but in fact he was the turning point in the destiny of mankind.
John Connor, this fashion is a teenage boy with yellow hair. He dismissed the salvation philosophy that his mother had instilled in him day and night, and lived a life of scumbag at his adoptive parents' home.
And Sarah was put in a mental hospital for her remarks about the end of the world.
If the Terminator does not appear again, the lives of the mother and son will fall into the abyss. Obviously, the appearance of the Terminator will be a kind of salvation for them in a sense.
One day, John and his Hupengou friends used black technology to steal hundreds of dollars in cash from ATMs to go to the game hall to be cool. What they didn't know was that the two men and horses had already slain, and the target was John.
Although T800 wears human leather clothing and leather pants, his 190 is tall, and his bodybuilder's burly posture is still eye-catching. If you carry a 1887-type lever burst shotgun, it may cause it before you start. Yelled. So the robot also played an apocalyptic romance, hiding the shotgun in the rose gift box and strolling in the mall.
And another future soldier, dressed as a policeman, was also inquiring about John Connor's whereabouts in the mall, trying to find John first.
Just like T1, the Terminator and the Protector once again encounter the target. Both sides fired almost at the same time and hit each other at the same time. T800 grabbed John and put him in his arms.
It turns out that this time the task of T800 is no longer to end human hope, but to protect the fire of human hope. Because one day in the future, humans successfully captured a T800 Terminator and rewrote his program. It was personally commanded by the leader of the Human Resistance Army, John Connor, and sent back to 1997 to perform the task of protecting itself.
The minions of Skynet are the little future warriors played by Patrick-the T1000, which is more advanced than the T800.
So where is the advanced T1000?
Regardless of his small size, he can actually change his appearance. It is a technological alloy with the ability to imitate, or liquid metal for short. Becoming a big guy like Arnold is just a matter of whether he wants or not, and imitating human voices like T800 is even a piece of cake for him. So T1000 is undoubtedly a better stealth killer.
At the same time, he also has as much mechanical power as the T800. When the two teams are facing each other, anyone can easily fly the opponent out like a discus.
In terms of anti-attack ability, the T800's bionic skin is obviously breakable with a finger, but the inner metal skeleton is almost invulnerable, and ordinary ammunition has nothing to do with it. And T1000, the hardness is far less than T800 alloy, but the bullet will only pass through him, but it will not cause substantial damage to him, because he is a liquid metal physique, and the temporary deformation will eventually recover slowly. In contrast, although T800 has higher hardness, the damage is permanent.
At the level of intelligence, the T1000's tactical strategy is more cunning and changeable. It can do whatever it takes to perform the assassination mission, but both sides have the other's information in their memory, and they can understand each other's behavioral logic and advantages and disadvantages.
So now the situation has gradually become clear. T1 is a combination of male and female pure meat against killer robots, and T2 is a combination of human and machine against liquid metal robots. Humans will always send weaker protectors back to perform tasks, so that the story will be more ups and downs and more thrilling. Of course, this is also the story of the shocking reversal that the audience has been waiting for.
With T800's personal protection, Little John is no longer worried about his life. But the scheming T1000 has a way. He starts with John's adoptive parents and pretends to be his adoptive mother to answer John's phone calls and collect messages. But the identity of T1000 was sold by a dog named Marx. The best way to identify a human being or a terminator is to let a loyal friend of mankind come and smell it.
If nothing can be done, the T1000 and T800 have launched Zhuge's heart attack against Sima. No adoptive mother, there is a biological mother. Inside the bars of the mental hospital, John's mother, Sarah is still being held. This place can lock the mentally ill who can't take care of themselves, but it can't stop the future warrior terminator with great magical powers. The encounter in the mental hospital seems inevitable.
When Sarah finally got down to a psychiatric hospital nurse and watched as she was about to "fly over the lunatic asylum", she saw Arnold dressed as Wang Feng at the Bird's Nest concert, and suddenly fell to the ground with her legs unwilling to do so. The nightmare of 1984 was about to repeat itself again. The murderer who took the life of the child and his father appeared in front of him again, and Sarah had only one dog club in his hand, which was not enough to fight back. Little John simply showed up in time to tell her mother what happened, and only temporarily eased her emotions, but it is impossible for Sarah to trust the robot wearing sunglasses immediately.
And T1000 came here without any difference. The iron gate of the mental hospital can be changed and passed through at will. Only the gun in his hand needs to be turned sideways to pass it.
Although Sarah has long transformed from a waiter in a restaurant to a warrior, her strength training day and night has left a distinctive mark on her bulging biceps. But it would be naive to want to fight the T1000, which is more advanced than the T800, through one's own flesh and blood. Her only hope now can only be pinned on her son's new bodyguard, Arnold. In the first battle in the mental hospital, and the strength of the three, they finally barely escaped the pursuit of T1000.
Finding a chance to take a breath, mother Sarah took another look at the robotic bodyguard who was playing a clapping game with John.
"The Terminator never stops running, never leaves him, never hurts him, never yells at him, beats him drunk, or is too busy to be with him, it will always be with him By his side, he will be protected to death. Throughout all the years that have come and gone, in this crazy world, on who is qualified to be John Connor’s father, this machine is the only one that meets the standards."
John also doesn't seem to be at odds with the machine as his father Kyle predicted. But he and Arnold are inseparable, fighting side by side and learning from each other. John’s mantra quickly became the mantra of T800. If you don’t understand, ask why Arnold is gradually becoming smoother and easier to integrate into human society, but don’t let him show a smile, that embarrassing but terrifying smile Once they appear, they will immediately sell their identity as a terminator.
For 13 years, Sarah has been preparing for the advent of Judgment Day. She mined with the uncertain arms dealer on the remote border. Built a large arsenal for John. Now, the human-computer trio has the capital to rewrite history. Sarah has always been tortured by the same nightmare over the years, and the moment when 3 billion people were wiped out on Judgment Day has always been lingering in her mind.
After taking a nap, Sarah was awakened by the same nightmare again, and she unknowingly engraved a few words on the table-NO FATE.
She doesn't believe that this is destiny, she believes that destiny should be created by herself. So the third old stalk of the Terminator series was born-No fate but we make. I control my own life.
Half-dreaming and half-awake Sarah has an immature idea. She wants to kill Dyson, the engineer who created the Skynet prototype. Don't worry, it's not the vacuum cleaner. It's Dyson of Cybertron. Don't worry, Cybertron is not the Cybertron in the hometown of Transformers.
The reason why Skynet was developed is not the result of mankind's concerted efforts in the field of artificial intelligence, overcoming difficulties and hard work, but because of a smart chip that was not completely damaged in the wreckage of the 1984 T800 Terminator. Smart as humans have plagiarized on this basis, no, reverse research and development, and developed the prototype of Skynet-a weapon of war similar to the TMD automatic missile defense system. Since then, human wars can be represented by computers, because they are more efficient strategic experts than humans. More and more information authorization has been given to Skynet, making Skynet omniscient and extremely smart, but what humans don't know is that Skynet has secretly made a decision for the destiny of mankind-extinction. Skynet has completed its self-awakening from quantitative change to qualitative change in continuous learning, and realizes that there is only one path between artificial intelligence and human beings. When humans reacted and wanted to unplug Skynet, it was too late.
In order to prevent the fall of human destiny, Sarah decided to unplug Skynet in advance, that is, to kill the engineer who developed Skynet, leaving Skynet dead. But Sarah hesitated when she saw the horrified eyes of Dyson's wife and his children. Is it worth sacrificing one life for the lives of 3 billion people? value. But this is inconsistent with Sarah's moral values and values.
Is there any other way not to kill the engineer? Of course there is. Do you think the screenwriters in the 90s are as stupid as the screenwriters now? When Little John arrived at the scene with the T800, Arnold cut off his arm, lifted the flesh, and showed Dyson the metal skeleton inside. This scene stunned the Dyson family. They gradually believed that Skynet would rule the earth in the future. Intend to cooperate fully to intercept Skynet. Whatever promotion and salary increase, the idea of becoming a general manager and becoming a CEO is all forgotten, making concessions for a better tomorrow for mankind.
Their plan is to destroy all Cybertron data that may lead to the successful development of Skynet. Bringing enough weapons and ammunition, they marched toward Cybertron with arrogance. It seems that Sarah’s 7-year military reserve is to wait for this day.
In order to buy time for Sarah and the others to install bombs, Arnold carried the mini Gatling machine gun alone, facing the densely packed policemen with guns outside the window. Before leaving, don't forget to chant "I'll be back", the enduring old stalk of the Terminator series. After a scandal, it turned out that Arnold was safe and sound, and the police were also safe. Because Arnold had promised John never to kill.
The plan was successful, and Cybertron was blown to shreds under the crowd of police. It was the father of Skynet, engineer Dyson, who stayed to detonate the bomb last. Putting the hard work of many years of research on fire, but also taking his own life. I have to say that Dyson is a very enlightened person. It's a pity that he won't get any rewards for his sacrifice, and he will even encounter countless criticisms. No one would understand his actions similar to terrorism, and no one would believe in a future that did not happen, because this future has been wiped out with Dyson.
However, if you think that the future has been rewritten and the Terminator should clear up the past with humans, then you are very wrong. The Terminators who are still in 1997 will not stop because of this. T800 will not, and T1000 will not.
The top priority in the T1000 processor is always the life of John Connor. He hijacked the human police helicopter and continued his final mission.
Obviously, there is no complete data on how to end T1000 in T800's memory bank. At most, it will be a tie with him but it will never take advantage.
By chance, T800 detonated a truck full of liquid nitrogen. T1000 slowly became difficult in the rapidly vaporized nitrogen. Metal will also lose its activity in the extreme cold. This is especially true for liquid metal. When the T1000 was completely frozen at low temperatures, Arnold used a sentence to steal his teacher from John’s and come to Spanish hasta la vista baby to send the T1000 on the road. One shot beat him to powder.
But as I just said, T800 does not have complete data for destroying T1000.
Although the T1000 is smashed to pieces, although it is visually enjoyable, when the temperature rises, the liquid metal can still be reshaped and restore combat effectiveness.
Therefore, the protagonist and his group are handsome and embarked on the road of escape again in just a minute. In the final battle, Cameron chose the boiler factory, which was particularly in line with his truck driver's blue-collar temperament aesthetics. The hot temperature became a panacea for the resurrection of liquid metal.
The more advanced T1000 obviously has all the key data of the T800. After a few rounds of confrontation between the two robots, the T800 showed fatigue. The T1000 perfectly interprets the terms of softness over the strong on the big screen. .
After the machine killer took Arnold away, he was only one step away from the final goal. The Connor mother and son, who were driven to a dead end, were only one step away from the hot molten steel.
At the critical moment, the backup power supply in the T800 plays a decisive role. The power bank is a life-saving straw for mankind, and the same is true for the Terminator. Arnold's extinguished electronic eyes lit up red again. It's time to tell the audience who is the highest paid man in this movie.
The last grid battery, the last weapon, the last howitzer, and the last progress bar. Hit the bullseye for the last time, and a series of finals paved the way for the last moment when the T1000 fell into the hot molten steel. Although T1000 has dominated almost the entire movie, the male second is the male second after all. It will always take advantage of the right time and place, but in the end it will still be defeated. When the liquid metal got out of control and could not be shaped in the boiling red liquid, and slowly returned to calm, the pressure that plagued the audience finally disappeared.
There is no technical data for researching Skynet, and there is no T1000 that is being pursued. Has Connor's mother and son successfully rewritten history?
Arnold believes that it does not.
There is also a Terminator in the world, and a smart chip enough to brew Skynet. Arnold tapped his head lightly with his fingertips, and then stood on the lifter on the steel water. Only by destroying all the future technologies in the world can it prevent the birth of Skynet and the advent of Judgment Day.
Little John in the rebellious period finally found a substitute for his father who would make him obedient, but he was about to say goodbye. John didn't give up. After so much, he knew that Arnold was right. Sarah didn't trust the machine anymore, and she reached out her hand to express her respect. The Terminator no longer has feelings, and in the end he understands why humans cry. After leaving the thumb gesture that John taught him to this human world, he was cut off from molten steel.
Some people say that the end of T2 goes against science, the personification of the robot is too serious, and the original program of T800 must obey all the orders of John Connor. But when Little John ordered him not to end himself, the Terminator said "I'm sorry". Does such a behavior violate human instructions? Is it the proper performance of a mature robot?
The whole film of T2 tells how Connor's mother and son changed their destiny, how to prevent the birth of Skynet, and how to prevent Skynet's awakening. Skynet is human beings’ fear of artificial intelligence, an unknown species, and human being’s greatest fear of artificial intelligence. Do you want to open this Pandora's box? Such entanglement is the last reason for mankind at the turning point of fate.
The T800 is what humans expect for artificial intelligence. If robots can also experience human emotions and have the same values as humans, maybe the world can be better?
Rather than understanding that the "sorry" that Arnold said at the end is a kind of loss of control, I would rather understand it as the awakening of consciousness in a certain sense of the Terminator, and the awakening of consciousness in another direction.
T2 is an unattainable peak. On the horizontal axis, looking at the 64th Oscars arena, it belongs to science fiction movies. Apart from a glimpse of "Star Trek 6", it is hard to find other science fiction movies. . However, T2 has won a series of technical awards such as the best sound, the best sound editing, the best visual effects, the best makeup, the best photography, and the best movie editing. It is enough to explain the status of T2 in science fiction films that emphasize special effects.
In terms of performance, although there are no awards for actors, it is not an exaggeration to say that T2 actors are uncrowned kings.
Linda Hamilton, the heroine of T1 and T2. T1 is still a weak chicken, and T2 has transformed into a tiger mother who wants to compete with the gods. The rapid progress in acting makes Sarah Connor's role seem like two people, but there is no sense of disobedience.
Xiao Kangna's performance made people feel bright. It was heard that Edward Fron was selected from hundreds of candidates. He was discovered by the casting director while waiting in line to enter a club. His interaction with Terminator Arnold is a classic. Compared with "Terminator 3", "Planet of the Apes" is a full-fledged adult version of John Connor, the plot is much more integrated. The latter, the interaction with the governor feels like talking with the same duck, and it is completely impossible to see that John Connor once had the relationship basis with T800 in T2.
Arnold, naturally don't have to say more, hearing the three words Terminator, the look in his mind must be Arnold's unsmiling expression. Arnold is equal to the Terminator, and the terminator is equal to Arnold. Doesn't this still explain Arnold's acting skills? From T1 to T2, to say what is the biggest change for the governor, my answer is one word-handsome. Arnold in T2 is so handsome.
It is also worth mentioning that Patrick, who plays T1000, has no less sense of presence in T2 than the governor. Patrick, who is no different from ordinary people in body shape, must express the coldness of the machine purely through facial expressions and body language. It is said that in order to vividly portray a tireless robot image, Patrick really even practiced breathing repeatedly. After a long-distance attack, ordinary people naturally breathe, but Patrick still remains calm after running wild, which is really not easy.
In some aspects that cannot be quantified, T2 can also be called a miracle at the time, such as the brain hole of liquid metal, so that T2 has been talked about so far. It can be said that it has been imitated and has never been surpassed. T800's preference for sunglasses, a shotgun hidden in the rose gift box, one-handed 360-degree change of bullets, and T800's grasp of details such as learning human voices also make T2 a robot movie that does not lose temperature.
On the vertical axis, in terms of the "Terminator" series alone, T2 is the leader who does his part. Whether it is the later female Terminator TX or the Nano Terminator T3000 infected with Connor, it is difficult to give people the kind of powerless oppression that T1000 brings, only the soy sauce feeling. Outside of the series, in the history of science fiction movies, T2 is in the top 10 without controversy. In a movie about robots, it is difficult to find a reason to refute it.
I want to say that Cameronka, the father of the Terminator, is simply the propelling engine of the film industry. Every time he makes a shot, he will almost push the film production technology to a higher level. T2 not only created the deeply rooted image of the liquid metal T1000, but also promoted his motion capture technology to the industry, helping to create more vivid character images. Later, the blockbuster films "Titanic" and "Avatar" directed by Cameron also pushed the film industry into a new era.
I can tell you very responsibly that Kashen products must be high-quality products, and Kashen never shoots bad movies. You may not have imagined that Kashen has directed independently since 1984, but has only directed 8 films. The last film directed was "Avatar" in 2009, and the most recent one he participated in the production is to be released in February 2019. It is adapted from "Alita: Battle Angel" from the famous Japanese comic "Gunmen". Then you may have to ask, what did Kashen do when the movie was not being made? To this question, I will give you a few answers for your own judgement.
The most official answer: Kashen has never left the film. He has been studying the real technology of the film. After all, "Avatar" has been shot for seven years, and there are rumors that it has been conceived since 1995.
The most funny answer: Kashen is busy getting married. Kashen has been married five times in total.
The first wife was a waiter in a truck-themed bar and successfully attracted Cameron, who was still a truck driver at the time.
The second wife was the producer of "Terminator 1". At that time, he bought the script of Terminator 1 for $1, but promised that Cameron could make the film exactly according to his own ideas. Later, the two of them After the divorce, they cooperated again and successfully shot "Terminator 2".
The third wife is also a director. In 2009, "Avatar" competed with "Avatar" for the best film Oscar and won the final victory of "The Hurt Locker" is the work directed by this wife of Kashen.
The fourth wife is Linda Hamilton, the heroine of T1 and T2, but their marriage only lasted 18 months. When they divorced, Hamilton shared half of Cameron's filming of "Titanic".
The last wife was an actor who played Rose's granddaughter in "Titanic", and their marriage has survived to this day.
The most true answer: Kashen has gone diving if he has time. Cameron has been obsessed with the sea since he was a child. In 1989, Cameron’s "The Abyss" described the story of meeting aliens on the sea floor. It is said that the prototype of this story is a science fiction novel written by Cameron when he was 12 years old. . . During the 12-year film window period between "Titanic" and "Avatar", Kashen went deep into the sea and made three documentaries about the sea, "Return to Bismarck", "Phantom of the Abyss" and "Alien in the Deep". In 2012, Cameron reached the deepest part of the surface-the bottom of the Mariana Trench, alone in 2 hours and 36 minutes. When he returned to the surface, he did not forget to say "I'll be back." Kashen could say that he really loves the sea. Do you want to consider "Aquaman 2" for Card God to play?
After T2, I originally thought that the Terminator series could not be re-shot, nor should it be re-shot. The plots of T1 and T2 are very complete, and any extra strokes are a bit superfluous. At the end of the second part, mankind has successfully rewritten history. Sarah No fate but we make my fate is verified by my motto. It is said that there is an unreleased ending, Judgment Day is not coming, Sarah slowly ages, and John gives birth to children. But this ending is at the bottom of the box, and the last thing people see is the open ending of the road ahead. But this does not mean that another sequel must be made. Because Cameron himself said that the Terminator is over, who can understand the Terminator better than Kashen?
It can only be said that people's expectations of the Terminator exceed Cameron's obsession with the Terminator, so there are three sequels.
Next, I will briefly introduce T1 and the three plots after T2.
"Terminator 3: The Awakening of the Machine"
In 2032, John Connor was dead. Skynet sent the female Terminator TX back to kill John Connor’s men in 2003. John’s wife sent T850 back to 2003 to help John escape the nuclear crisis. The Conner and his wife tossed for a long time, and finally they just found a refuge bunker quietly waiting for the coming of Judgment Day.
"Terminator 4" aka "Terminator 2018"
In 2018, John Connor was not the leader of the rebel army, but he succeeded in taking the position with the help of a robot who thought he was not a robot and was transformed into a robot.
"Terminator 5: Genesis"
In 2029, Skynet sent T800 back to the assassination of Sarah Connor in 1984, and the humans sent back to Kellys to protect Sarah Connor. Little did he know that someone on this timeline sent back the T800 "daddy" to protect Sarah as early as Sarah was a child. The prototype of Skynet on this timeline is no longer a military weapon, but an APP. Sarah, Kyle played a lot of crossing, and prevented the coming of Judgment Day in 2017. No, it postponed the coming of Judgment Day.
Starting from the third part, the Terminator series seems to go slanting forward, singing the main tone of fatalism, and the protagonist is caught in a reincarnation dilemma. No fate but we make has become a special language for face slaps.
In 2018, there was news that the filming of "Terminator 6" was started. Cameron will be the producer, and Arnold and Linda Hamilton will also star in all. Regardless of the quality of the final film, no matter where the final plot goes, Terminator, make a few movies, I watch a few.
