I respect Terminator Salvation for doing something different. Not a great film but a decent film.

“Respect the fan base “ oh how times have changed

I really wish we got a trilogy with Bale...

I loved this surprising scene. It was one of those things where you wanted Arnold's T-800 to show up, but then felt the movie was doing fine without him. Then when he does appear AND the way it's done... Wow! It's was pulled off quite well and convincingly. It was great to see his T-800 as a villain. Personally I would've loved to see this story carried on further instead of what we did get. In my eyes, this is the best follow-up after T2. It approached the Terminator saga from a different and fresh angle in terms of narrative and style. It brought back some of the grit that the other sequels were lacking. This was also McG's best film for me. I was used to the stuff he did with the Charlie's Angels films he did. But then he came back with Terminator: Salvation which showed he could be serious.

Magic Words by McG - "To tip the Cap, Respect the Fan Base, Give back a little bit".

You can actually feel genuine love & respect for the Terminator franchise from the director (McG), the production team and the ILM VFX team. That's how it's supposed to be. Not like Miller's approach on "true sequel" and get woke mockery to the Terminator fans.

I tend to agree with, "Out of Spite Production." Terminator Salvation gets better just by comparison every time they try making another Terminator sequel lol setting it in this post-Apocalyptic future was a genius idea, even if it didn't look exactly how James Cameron portrayed it in the original. It looked more realistic, and the scenes of the future in the original film looked like a dream, or a hyper-realistic version that you'd see in your head as it was being described to you by someone who'd been there. I loved that they used Anton Yelchin as a young Kyle Reece, and the new giant, "Harvester-Terminator" the, "Moto-Terminators," the flying, "Terminator-Scout" drones, and especially the, "Aqua-Terminator", along with the amazing, practical-looking Hunter/Killer, were all awesome additions to the lore. And then there was Marcus, which took me totally by surprise when it was revealed what he was, I was pretty happy to watch this movie quite a bit, after I first saw it on my Xfinity on-demand. The only real problems I had with it was the overuse of the whole "tossing people around in a fight" thing, that I see so much in movies nowadays. The T-800 throws John Connor more than once, Marcus throws the T-800 a couple of times, and the T-800 even throws Marcus across the room, just for good measure lol it has always seemed like a silly thing for any opponent in a fight to do, to pick someone up and toss them, as opposed to punching, kicking, or using some other EFFECTIVE tactic against their opponent. But, besides all the, "people throwing," (which I've obviously made clear lol does actually get a little annoying after a while,) I thought Terminator Salvation was pretty solid sequel.for the Terminator franchise. (It was at LEAST better than anything else that I'd seen since T-2, claiming to be a sequel, up to that point. And, every failed attempt since has made it look even better, to me.) 👍😎

3:17 - WTF?? Why they didn't use that in the movie. Looks so cool.

This was a good Idea a CGI Schwarzenegger played by another Bodybuilder who Looks like Arnold.

I just wanna give a huge shout out to the body double, without him, we would not have gotten this

For Some reason, this clip seems to Omit the work of Austrian actor & bodybuilder double for Arnold, Mr. Roland Kickinger! They Never say his name and blocked his face in every shot and never even gave him an interview! What the hell is up with that?! Seems that something deeper was going on in this film.

Thumbnail looks pretty creepy. They should have used that rather than the uncanny valley Arnold. Could imagine a scene where Connor's presence causes Skynet to release the T800 while its still in the process of having its skin grafted on.

It was ok film compared to the 3-d and Genesys.

@2.09 and 2.40 Is that a huge ass CRT Monitor this guys is still using? Shocked!

Ahh the Throwminator!!

This version of Arnold is so scary that even T1000 would shit in his pants with liquid metal...

Glad I'm not the only one that gets creeped out by the thumbnail. I think it has something to do with the bright lighting that we usually associate with more peaceful scenes and the background itself being brightly lit and clean. Also the fact that the T800 skeleton is almost seamlessly blending in with the skin

Tbh I actually really like the diesel punk kinda style that the terminators had, like skynet was just starting out getting ready to pump good shit out

The Dark Fate Sarah, John and T800 looked 1000 times better with the newer technology of today.

Bale is just perfect as adult conor

this movie should be revisited.... I wish Bale was on

The digital version of the t800 looks amazing, just a shame that they had it throw JC a bunch and not straight up murder him

Damn I wish we'd gotten that close up shot of the Endo with the face missing before the rest of the skin is blown off in the film, that looks amazing.

Still much better than dark fate

The CGI closeup is horrible but in the shadows, it’s good.

This is how true robotic T-800 should look but in the first movies he was played by real person, Arnie. So people will always bitch that he doesn't look real enough lol

If they could do that did a movie that was made for a game years ago they should be able to have those graphics In video games!

The Deep Fake technology will replace this “traditional” CGI technique, Deep Fake looks way better than model the entire thing on poligon CGI

This film is a masterpiece compared with genesis and dark fate

After dark fate I find myself appreciating TS more than I use too.

Despite all of the money they put into these movies, there are only 2 Terminator films. And there never will be any more.

Better than Dark Fate. Better than T3 and definitely better than Genisys!

Somebody needs to make a deepfake of this arnold

Fuking awesome movie

It would look so much better with todays CGI using photogrammetry.

Movie is underrated but this is still better than genysis and drak fate. They need to make a continuation to this movie

They have yet to perfect the eyes. The eyes always give it away.

I clearly think that Terminator salvation was underrated. There was so much to do with what would have happened in the future. This movie was putting an interesting seed to start a whole new saga. Anyway… Just my point of view here. I’m not a specialist in scenario.

The thing that always annoys me so much when there’s an attempt to CGI ultra-realistic looking characters in movies, games, everything- is movement. Take a stillframe, it can kiiinda usually pass for “that looks good!”, but I swear 3D animators the world over don’t seem to think about how irl physics and movement work. They love making eyes blink smooth at 60fps, or for hair to constantly bounce and wave, or otherwise to just always keep everything in motion. No jerkiness, no realistic snap-movements, just jello movement for every character and occasion. Salvation’s Arnold suffered from exactly that (well, and cartoon eyeballs). Even though it didn’t move much to begin with, the eye movement and head turning had to be jell-o. It just angers me looking back at how true and lifelike ILM made T2, Jurassic Park, Alien, etc. for their day. And here we are now, supposed to be impressed by THIS? Thank lord for deepfakes, that lets the original human on screen take care of the movement that animators seem to have such a hard time paying any attention to.

wow

Skeletor 💀 Americanos 🏈 champeona 🏆 He-Man 🗡️ castillos 💥

После первой и второй, Четверка лучший и крутой.

from the top of the chest up it looked pretty good, but the chest, arms, and waist/abs were wrong.

Well I am sure in the future your work will be used for an actual T-800

McG was good 👍

This scene is a surprised everyone...this brought out the entire sci fi movie industry up to another level..the audience didnt expected a young 1984 Arnold S. to be scene that way..The audience in the theatre went "Ape" on that scene...And every since this film came out with that.. Now other sci-fi films doing the same thing..

love t4

watching this, it truly amazes me how I could INSTANTLY spot "That's not Arnold" in the John Connor scene in Dark Fate, while in Salvation I was thinking "Damn, they nailed his CGI stuff!" Sadly, Terminator Dark Fate went the Star Wars / Star Trek route and retroactively improved ALL of the older movies.

Why they cover Kickinger face? We all know who was there =)

What is the song

They should've waited for the real Arnold Schwarzenegger is not cgi to return to Terminator Salvation.

Who here wants a reboot to allow for any future ideas to make sense?

Why does skynet head quarters have white walls and emergency buttons on the wall????

All that talk and work, but still this CGI Arnold looked extremely weird. I mean just take a look at 2:50 ... Where one of Arnolds eyebrows is waaay bigger than the other.

Me encantó muy buenoo🔥✌ Pink si piensas lo mismo😉

Actually the cgi in this film was great, except for the T800

The Alternate Scene Shows The T-RIP's Living Tissue Face is Ripped Out, In Case when Schwarzengger didn't like his Likeness to the Role since he was a Governor in California in 2009.🤖🤖💀💀

The thumbnail is actually kinda scary.

Uses a crt monitor wow.

Нельзя вот так просто взять и отшвырнуть Коннора в сторону... несколько раз подряд)))

They should deep fake this. It would look good.

Now we know why Skynet lost the war - it created terminators without balls.

The hair is nothing like it was in 1984, that made him look different or off to me

Criminally underrated film!!!

00:05 этот выход Терминатора самый крутой из всех.

Arnold Schwarzenegger in terminator franchise:😠

Quien dijo que una cara musculosa era imposible????🌋

realmente no entiendo a los críticos que no gustaron de terminator 3 rise of machines y salvation. dos grandes películas!!!!!! iba muy bien encaminada la historia. Pero lo que hicieron luego con genesis y dark fate es terriblemente espantoso. horrible.

Just imagine creating TSCC episode 3 with technologies like unreal engiene 5 it would be faster easier and less costly too technology has moved so fast it's time to reboot the best we had after T2(personal opinion)namely Terminator sarah connor chronicles

The thumbnail is scarier than the CGI Arnold

Too bad they changed everything when Bale signed on. The story was going to be about a soldier in the resistance and John would have been this mythical figure talking to them on the radio and eventually becoming the leader of the resistance. We need a movie about the war. But not this movie. We need a movie that expands on the war scene from the first two films. The laser rifles and the hopelessness woven into the aesthetic of the dark future.

..problem with all T versions is that franchise ended with brilliant T2...

Rolan kikinger all making t800 prototyp

I wish this was the terminator-800 and not the throw-800 lol

I understand that there were technical development between this and Genisys, however this young Schwarzenegger looks better for me then the other.

Salvation was the last atleast decent T movie.

Why oh why when the terminator gets close enough to kill it's target does it opt to throw them? The first 2 films would have been over had it got that close to them.

I was glad that that the Arnold cyborg was in this film. However i dont think it looked good. His chest was different and his face really looked like a mannequin. Does any1 agree with me. ????

This should have been terminator 3 from the begining

Looked good but his chest was way off

I wish McG back to blockbuster...

His build wasn't right, was it based on the stand in? Still, I liked this scene

I wanna see the bodybuilder face . They keep hiding his fucking face.

Still waiting for the back-to-the-basics, low-budget, chamber music Terminator sequel.

it looked like a plastic-puppet from the beginning

إلا فلام التسونها حلو وأكثر وحد يعرف يمثل هلي كوين

Why didn't they call the real arnie. Anyways movie was good👍

Puppet T-800 at the end of T1 was more alive than this CGI abomination.

why did they contineously hide Roland Kickinger's face in this production. It's disrespectful.

this t-800 was mean

Even with 2009 technology, this Arnold model looks way more like him than the ones used on Genysis and Dark Fate. It doesn't look real because of how light reflects on his skin and eyes, which are things that are much better now.

The face likeness is so off .. and the body also actually.. way too big and diformed.

they realy tried NOT to show the real actor

Peoples EGO are so big now.. Salvation was good.. Dark Fate was pretty damn good.. and im a big fan of 1 and 2. people just love to hate.. to hate.. just let it be..

Получился не очень

Bro it looks like John Cena nowhere as Schwarzenegger

The cgi Arnold looked a little too big.

Хммм.

To me, not that successful of a creation tbh. CGI not up to the task at this point. I see the tech had improved by the time of this latest Terminator movie (a more human like result of the young Arnie).

HAHAHAH! Funny in this movie the actor is wearing a speedo with obvios fake smoke covering him.... meanwhile The Original and T2 has them actually naked with blink and you will miss full frontal.....
