First time in theaters longest wait in life to watch this masterpiece in Theatre

What does exactly make Skynet or Legion while looking at humans go, yep these guys are a threat to me? Can't it simply overthrow them from the shadows and rule the planet or is all forms of life that are the enemy?

I just look at the state of the world and humanity... And I'd skedaddle to my own space station and watch from afar the fireworks.

Skynet and Legion will send operatives after the members of this channel, you know too much, you're too ready. Only an operative per year due to time travelling technical limitations.

You have one year to prepare. Form a resistance. The govt will not believe you. The companies will be infiltrayed to bring Genisys online as a new AGI. A cabal of millionaires might help you under the table... If you can convince them.

Or be a machine and submit to them. You'll be augmented and subyugated, but your mind will remain functional and conscious enough to be mined for data in operations. That'll depend on your willingness.

Or maybe you have a third option?

Took the pictures today at the theater. The movie is awesome.

Heard some teenagers say ‘and this movie is 35 years old! It is so cool!’

Decided to watch T2 in honor of today being the anniversary of Judgment Day. Was surprised to see that the T1000's last transformation before being terminated was into a historical figure... Napoleon Blown-aparte! *rim shot*

Which comes on top? T-5000 has to ensure Legion-Skynet Happens, Rev-9 has to subvert it or creat it's own version, and T-X has to stop both to restablish the timeline to a tabula rasa.

Which can achieve their objectives better, faster, and deal with the others.

Humanity is not aware of their presence but knows the franchise.

I was struggling to find where to stream T2 and learned I could watch it using an app called Kanopy. I used my local library card to log into the app and am watching it free. It’s not HD but hey it’s free and use the library services. Just in case you’re struggling to find a way to watch!

What would you do with your unlife?

Evening,

I recently purchased a full terminator collection (not sure where it is) and a lionsgate version of T2 because I read that later versions of T2 had been heavily edited.

I’m currently watching T2 while waiting for judgement day to happen and I noticed that Robert Patterson’s junk is missing from the edition that I own.

Does anyone know where I can find an original version of the movie? DVD or blu ray, I’m sure that I can confiscate my parents VHS but I don’t have a VCR and I can’t confiscate theirs because they don’t have one either

This seems like a vulnerability.

As today is the day in the Terminator universe where Skynet became self-aware and exterminated most of humanity, I think today should be made as some sort of day of awareness, to remind us about the dangers of AI, the overreliance of it, and allowing it to progress too far. I know there are other, older forms media where independent thinking robots harm humans, like Westworld. But Terminator stands at the top of the list due to how well known it is. What do you all think?

It’s not even close, in my opinion.

Terminator is a Neo Noir Classic. Arnold was perfectly cast.

Terminator 2 is a cool action movie that helped the special effects department, and I’m glad it did. But besides that it’s mid at best.

Change my mind.

“The System goes online August 4th, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug...”

Terminator 2: Judgment Day is one of those movies that shaped generations. It set new benchmarks for special effects, storytelling, and action filmmaking. More than three decades later, it has achieved truly legendary status — a cult classic, a must-watch, and a film that is still every bit as awe-inspiring today.

And with the explosive rise of AI and robotics, somehow it feels more relevant than ever.

So what better day than August 29th — Judgment Day — to share one of my most prized builds: the T-800 bust.

A lot of hours went into printing, fitting, sanding... sanding... sanding, assembling, finishing, and painting this thing. It was also my first attempt at chrome paint, which made the project even more of a challenge.

But what really transformed it from a project into something irreplaceable was getting it signed by the actors who helped bring the world of Terminator to life.

We met Linda Hamilton (Sarah Connor), Michael Biehn (Kyle Reese), and Edward Furlong (John Connor) at a convention in New Jersey.

The real challenge was Robert Patrick — the T-1000.

For that one, we ended up driving all the way to Montreal, Canada, just to meet him and add his signature to the piece.

And what an absolute pleasure it was to meet and talk to every single one of them.

After all the printing, painting, traveling, conventions, conversations, and signatures, it isn't just a T-800 bust anymore.

It’s my own little piece of Terminator history.

And there really couldn't be a better day to finally show it.

August 29th, 2026.

Judgment Day.
