Put on your best leather jacket and dark sunglasses, sit in front of the TV and turn on Terminator 2 on Netflix, a guaranteed evening of good movies, Arnold Schwarzenegger at the height of his “coolness” and classics. Science fiction!
In 1991, seven years after the first part, James Cameron returned to the Terminator world with a new opus, which he called “Judgment Day”. Beginning in 1984 and still brilliant, the director went further with Aliens, The Return (1986) and Abyss (1989). Alongside the latter shoot, The Terminator is almost a holiday for Cameron, who once again shows that he has no equal in action cinema.
“Come to me if you want to live”
This time, the Terminator is still looking for Sarah Connor, but to protect his teenage son Johnny from the T-1000, a new cyborg sent by the artificial intelligence Skynet. An incredible friendship will form between the Terminator and young John, and Sarah will do everything to save her son.
Also, whatever happened to Edward Furlong who played young John Connor?
Terminator 2: Judgment Day still beats many recent films and their digital special effects thanks to its powerful visuals and tangible settings. Released in France in 1991, “T2” has visually aged more than the films released in the 2010s. Everything (well, most of what you see) is real.
Edward Furlong and “Schwarz”
The relationship between the characters, in particular between John and the T-800, further elevates the mythology of the Terminator universe by examining the human-machine relationship and questioning the potential for humans to develop feelings between so-called artificial beings. 1990s classics and sci-fi classics.
