James Cameron refused to make Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) until visual effects had evolved enough to bring the T-1000 to life. The gamble paid off: the film grossed over $520 million worldwide and changed blockbuster filmmaking forever.

I remember losing my mind when I saw that in the cinema it was the coolest effect I could’ve ever imagined. But then again look at how far we’ve come. You can do that shit on your phone now. 😅🤓

Wow🤩🤩🤩

Could of thrown a few quid on this

The real reason for the liquid metal is that The Abyss flopped but Cameron wanted to show off the liquid CGI so he reused it here. I always wanted an explanation how the liquid metal machine worked.

Every time I see this I think of Nemesis Prime. Hrm what if Cameron directed a Transformers movie?

It turned the Harley Fatboy into a popular model motorcycle!

One of the best movies ever made…

It was great! But, he needs to get back to doing more movies like that. This avatar is nothing more than a glorified video game. Way to much cgi.

この水路は他の映画に登場する水路と同じ場所なのでしょうか?

D’ailleurs, il avait déclaré dans le magazine Mad Movies quand Terminator 3 sortait qu’il voulait que T3 soit à T2 ce que T2 était à T1 et qu’il lui aura fallu au moins 250 millions de $ pour réaliser sa vison. Cela était impensable à la fin des années 90, début des années 2000.

waiting for the tech to catch up was exactly what made t-1000 land so hard

One of the few sequels to be so much better than the first..

Not exactly. Cameron didn’t want to work with the original studio again, but they owned the rights, so he couldn’t stop them from making T2 with someone else. (They reportedly considered hiring John McTiernan who directed Die Hard.)

I really enjoy watching this thriller, it’s fantastic.

And sequels never could match its success.

decepticon ?

Off topic on this subject punks. The T-1 Million was a massive arachnid from what I read.

I saw this in the theater

And thats $1.19 billion inflation adjusted.

and the Guns n Roses soundtrack. xx
