Guss williams 1961-2017
Happy post humous birthday to Guss Williams (the guy on the left) who was born May 20th, 1961 in Alexandria, Louisiana, USA.
He was an actor and producer, known for Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991), Battleship (2012) and Predator 2 (1990). He died on September 26, 2017 in Covington, Georgia, USA.
I didn't know the T-1000 was used in Hellraiser, The Hellinator
What would you want from a new terminator movie?
It kind of sucks for me to see the current state of the terminator franchise. Terminator zero to me was great but it got canceled. James cameron wants to do a remake but im not sure if that could be successfully pulled off since he wants to make it entirely different. Im glad to see the fan base is still strong so ill ask what would any of you want from a new terminator film? For me I would want a future war setting that captures the intense action scenes as well as the despair and horror that is shown in the first 3 movies.

Does anyone else think Edward Furlong (Cast of John Connor) could've been the next leading male actor just like DiCaprio?
Terminator: The Musical?
I would very much like to see a Terminator-based musical. Kyle Reese & Sarah's meet-cute serenade... "Come With Me If You Want to Live, Laugh, Love"?
Or ..
"Under Pressure" a final farewell from the T800 as the hydraulic press descends...?
Yes please.
Was Kyle's sacrifice unneccessary?
Near the end of the movie, we see him and Sarah running and hiding from terminator in that factory, when he manages to find them. At first, they seem to be cornered, but they are still able to go up some stairs and there is even some walkway, when you climb up, that leads somewhere.
Surely, Kyle wanted to distract terminator a bit by hitting him with that pipe, to buy Sarah some time, but after terminator bitch-slapped him, I don't think it was neccessary for him to blow him up, thus killing himself in the process.
Terminator was already slow and badly damaged, they could've just run as far as possible from him. I get that this was all done "for the movie to happen", but I am curious about what others think about this?
What shoes do Reese wear and where can I get them?
These shoes look absolutely amazing does anyone know where to get these and if hey are sold anymore? Thanks and drop any links if you do
He promised not to kill anyone else, and he kept his word.
Terminator 2
T2 Special Edition (Extended) on Sale for $4.99
FYI I just saw this on Amazon Prime Video: the HD version of the “Extended” Special Edition of Terminator 2 is on sale for $4.99. (I didn’t see a 4K version available)
I already own the theatrical cut, but for five bucks I figured what the hell ;)
Imagine the future of humanity hinged on John Connor NOT having Chipotle
I really enjoyed Dark Fate... Let the haters tears flow
If the t800 thought of a more clever name when at the police station
Hello, my name is Mr Burns. I'm here to see Sarah Connor
Terminator Salvation ranks as the third best film in the franchise.
Question about young Kyle Reese
UPDATE: thanks for the responses and link to the video clip. That's a great fucking scene, but it's not the one I think I remember. It occurs to me it might not have been Reese, but some other survivor or character. It had a more "Road Warrior" vibe, out on a highway, where some Resistance Fighters were blowing a scout or surveillance robot. YouTube not turning it up (but I enjoyed watching all the other scenes looking for it lol).
Again, this could all be a false memory, but appreciate any further thoughts. If I am totally wrong about it, please let me know.
Original post:
I think I remember a scene from one of the films in which Kyle Reese destroys some sort of scout robot when he is still a teenager. They then scavenge some of the parts.
I've been trying to find the clip, but can't. Any ideas?
Oh one last thing: this was years ago, so any or all of this may be wrong.
Thank you
