Terminator 2D No fate is only a month away from release, but I wanted to step back in time to the original (and only movies?) two movies in this 2-part retrospective. I cover the origins of the movies, how James Cameron/Gale Anne Hurd, Hemdale and Orion got the first film made. It's actual impact at the time from my first hand experience of working in a video shop. The stars, make-up and special effects, production information and how the ground breaking FX were created for the pinnacle sequeal that inspired the new game, Terminator 2 Judgement Day.
Part 2 dives even deeper into the games we got at the time from 1991 to 1994 across 8/16-bit computers, consoles and arcades. You can watch that right now for a few $/£s over on my Patreon page and help support my independant work, website and influence the content. Thanks ans enjoy.
