The reason why James Cameron is called "Card God" is that he can always do things that others can't.
Needless to say, the box office myths created by "Titanic" and "Avatar" are self-explanatory.
Hollywood movies in the 1980s and early 1990s were still relatively rough on the whole, and there were basically no sequels that surpassed the first film, and sequels were basically just to make money, mainly utilitarian. Even if it is Kashen, the "Alien 2" he created is not as good as Scott Ridley's first part, although Kashen has fully upgraded the scenes of the second part and is full of entertainment, but the depth of thought is far less than the first part.
However, James Cameron's own directing of "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" changed the basic appearance of the sequel that was not as good as its predecessor.
1984's "Terminator" is Kashen's Hollywood debut, trapped by financial constraints, it looks very rough at the technical level, the sci-fi setting in the film, now look at the full plastic texture, and the special effects are also five-cent special effects that want to cover up.
But the release of "The Ultimator 2: Judgment Day" in 1991 is impressive, first of all, it is good-looking, and the exciting plot deeply attracts the attention of the audience.
Moreover, "Ultimate2: Judgment Day" is a commercial production that has also won 4 Oscars, especially in terms of visual effects, which has greatly promoted the development of Hollywood film technology, which is very good.
In terms of plot, "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" did not go beyond the routine of "Terminator", but continued the setting of the first part, in the first part, in the future 2029, the Skynet system sent cyborg T800 back to 1984 to kill Sarah Connor, the mother of the leader of the human resistance, John Connor, so that she could not have children, so that the future human race would have no leader. At the same time, John Connor, who was aware of Skynet's intentions, also sent Lieutenant Officer Kyle Rees back to 1984 to protect Sarah Connor and stop the damage of the T800. At the end of the story, Kyle Reese succeeds and kills T800, and Sarah Connor is able to get pregnant and give birth to John Connor.
The second part continues the story of the first part, telling that the Skynet system failed to do anything, so a second plan was born, this time sending a more advanced liquid robot T1000 back to 1995 to kill the growing John Connor in order to prevent him from becoming the leader of the human resistance as an adult. And John Connor in 2029 sent the T800 to protect his younger self.
What's interesting here is that the T800 in both works is starring Schwarzenegger, but it's not actually the same, it's the same. are all cyborgs, and the one in the first part was sent by the Skynet system, and it was the villain. The second part sent John Connor, and this T800 turned into a good guy.
Different individuals of the same style, two T800s are not one. But for Schwarzenegger, it's all T800, so it's all played by him. The performance of the first part is very good, this one Rika God developed Schwarzenegger's acting skills and added some funny scenes for him, and the effect was very good, so that Schwarzenegger's acting skills were tempered.
The storyline is the same as the first part, the villain killer has to kill the set target at all costs, and the decent protector has to do everything possible to protect the object of protection. Hunting and counter-hunting constitute a tense and exciting plot.
For the T800, he also has a mission, which is to work with Sarah Connor and young John Connor to destroy Skynet that has not yet been built.
Do you still remember the birth of Skynet in the first part, which originated from the first T800 that died? The death of that T800, as a result, his advanced production technology and advanced chips, inspired the computer companies at that time, prompting them to develop the Skynet system, although the initial researchers never expected that Skynet would go to the opposite side of mankind and destroy all human beings.
In "Terminator 2", T800 and they found the developer of Skynet and persuaded him to destroy the prototype Skynet. Moreover, they also managed to snipe the T1000. In the end, in order to prevent itself from being used again to develop a new system, the T800 chose to commit suicide and sink into the boiling molten steel. That scene was very shocking and became a famous scene in film history.
In the year 1991, James Cameron had already contributed a footage of the liquefaction robot transforming into a form, which was breathtaking. Since then, Kashen has embarked on the road of leading technology, and later filmed "Titanic", "Avatar", "Deep Sea Alien", etc., all of which used the world's most advanced technology and made outstanding contributions to the development of films.
After many years, when I think of "Ultimate 2: Judgment Day", I will think of Schwarzenegger's leather jacket, sunglasses, motorcycle, long-barreled shotgun, and the classic line of "i will be back", and then the terrifying transfiguration of the T100, the arm can be used as any weapon, all of which make people feel uneasy.
As a standard commercial production, "Terminator 2" is difficult to have any subtle words, and it does not have too many ideological connotations, but if you can't stand it, it is good-looking, it can become a commercial classic, and it is still outdated to watch it after many years, just by virtue of this, "Terminator 2" is also worth it.
