Transcript

All right, and welcome back to see you at the Body ricta uh. For this episode, we'll be going through the summary of Arnold's twenty nineteen vehicle Terminator Dark Fate. I am Joseph bet Castro, and I am joined by two very happy gentlemencas This movie takes place in their home country. We have Aaron frescas Ola and Christopher Chaman. What else choice that means good nachos? Yes, all not chows are good, well, except that when they got

blacks on it. Whatever. You can't even taste the olives. You can if you fucking hate olives. Plus, why would you put olives on not white people? Exactly? You go get some nachos and white people are like, oh, we put all those on it because we're white. I fucking hate that white people. I'm looking at you. It was white people. There's there's no way there was anything. But who really enjoys olives? White people? Yeah? Yeah, Greek I guess Italians. I don't know they

want there on there? Okay, are starting off so racist? I don't know. Even on my birthday was not part of this ignorant but not racist. Even on my birthday, my mom made enchiladas. She knows I hated all of us, and she put them on there anyways, so you can pick them off, like mom on your birthday too. Wow, that's fucked. And she made special vegetarian ones for my brother but couldn't even not put olives on mine. She was like, this is how I wanted to tell

you that I wish that Jeff was an only child. Uh yeah, well success mom. Yeah. Oh, we don't have a guest today. By the way, it's it's knowing because really, yeah, it's just it's just us more. Yeah, we're doing a Terminator movie and if we added an additional person who has their like only own opinions on it, on like the franchise and mythology, this episode would have him taken like five hours. Yeah. Yes, So enough dicking around. Why don't we go ahead and get

into the summery you take it away, Chris, Oh, fantastic. So we begin our movie with the surveillance footage of Sarah Connor, the same therapy session that we saw in a Terminator two, where she's talking to the therapist and telling him about her like apocalyptic nightmare. And just to start off, watching Linda Hamilton's performance go from like sobbing to frothing at the mouth. Makes me have like just a tad more sympathy for that psychiatrist dude, Like that

guy was a dickbag. But also it's like I love that guy. Yeah he's I guess he's what dead tight? Well? But tied with Linda Hamilton as the oh yeah most because he was in three. Yeah yeah, Hamilton has been in three besides, aren't okay? Yeah? Yeah, okay, it's true. See me, I don't have anything for that. Okay, go ahead, all right, h Next week cut to a beautiful black sanded beach as we watched the tide slowly sleep away this shit? Am I gonna

not gonna be able to talk tonight? Fuck? What'd you do some some totally sober, just dumb tonight? Oh man, Joe, did I tell you about that? What Chris was blazing? Uh? Tell him that that We're okay? Cool? Uh? So when we recorded that, have you listened to Justice Peinigue podcast at all? No? I haven't seen the movie. Okay, cool, that's probably for the best, Like I'm sure I've already said, but uh, but I want to watch the movie so I

can listen to the podcast. Well if you if you listen to that the first episode, he kept struggling through it, and I was like, I didn't. I was like, are you okay? I don't know if it was you okay? And he's like shit, shit, like like uh like, mother fucker shit, I'm like, what is wrong with you? Are you okay? He's like, like, you do want to admit a person? He's like, well, in an edible, Like, it's not that I didn't want to admit it. I didn't realize what was happening at first.

You eat it like three hours ago. No, I was just stupid. I just like, so, I've I've done edibles before that, and it was a small amount of edibles. I'm a I'm pretty lightweight, but basically it was a new kind of edible, and so I that I had never tried before. I ate what was presumably too much. Yeah, and it was. It was forty five minutes or an hour before we recorded, But I just like, yeah, exactly, I didn't. I didn't think about it. I was trying to take just a little bit and I took

too much, and I just didn't realize it was happening. And then it just kept getting harder and harder and harder for me to organize my thoughts, and I was like, what the fuck? And I when I'm the reason I don't do weed that often is because I get really angry when I can't like control my mental faculties. So I get really pissed off myself. I get like, fuck, mother fuck what is you? Man? Like, we are you okay? Because I was freaking I was having a good time.

He's like I hate this. I'm like, okay, well it's it's fine. I can help you through it. And so, like the first episode, there's a lot of meat like interjecting yeah, we like it ended up editing together, all right, so like yeah, so it's just like me like, oh yeah, and then this happens and you're like yep, and then he keeps going with it and it's a lot of me helping out. God, if you heard the raw, it's fucking terrible. It's like

it's so terrible. Yeah, but anyway, anyway, so next we cut to a beautiful, black sanded beach as we watch the tide slowly sweep away the sand to reveal a human skull. And I just really like this opening shot, like not a joke. Like this opening shot is really really good to me. It's just like it's kind of symbolic of like the sort of inevitable tide of time and it kind of washes away the sand to reveal the skull, and it's like, all this shit is inevitable no matter what we

do, and we're always going to fucking blow ourselves up. I don't know, I just think that's a really good opening shot. Damn, man, you're way better at this than us. Yeah, like I might be go ahead, you might be better than the filmmakers because I don't know if that was intentional, but I'm pretty sure that was intentional that that was not my

okay, so go ahead. So then the shot pans over the beach to show us an army of killer robots storming the beach as Sarah Connor's voiceover tells us about the desolate future that she helped to prevent, and then she kind of snaps out of her nightmare. My second note, I have a lot of notes up front. My second note is like I'm kind of tired of the robots stepping on the skulls thing like they open Like, yeah, I feel like they open at least half of these movies with that shot, and

it's I'm just kind of over it at this point. It's called I like, I like how Chris is. I like how Chris has got the like, well, the tide coming over whatever is means this and this, And my comment is, dude, how much better would Saving Private Ryan have been if it had been terminators on d date instead of like people in the beginning

scene. That would have been fucking awesome, Because that's exactly what my first thought when I watched this, So it was like, holy shit, Like I wish we knew video editing or we actually had fans, because I really want someone to insert Tom Hanks like the character into the scene, but like not Tom Hanks character, like the Tom Hanks character from like a lieg of their own. No, not that Saving Private Ryan and everything, Yeah exactly,

and then yeah, yeah, anyway. The only other thing I wanted to mention is like, I feel like the CGI and this kind of diminishes how scary the terminators look. I feel like they're moving way too smoothly and they're too shiny. It just doesn't look right with the modern CGI. Oh yeah, I mean I think that's the problem with his entire movie. Yeah, well okay, so I'm sorry, I'm watching it right now. Yeah, it is, it is. I didn't notice that, you guys.

It's just like so smooth, like there's no weight to the robots. Yeah, but anyway, Oh go ahead, I mean, okay, I can't killing the c G isn't terrible. They look real. I'm not trying to say that the CGI looks bad in like a you know, I mean Mummy, the Mummy returns way, I'm saying, no, there's aspects of it. Yeah, but like, uh, this would be how they would walk if they had to, like like once they get covered with skin, they

walk normally. So that kind of makes sense kind of, but I geel what you're saying, because the robotic like, yeah, when it's a practical effect, you can actually see all the parts moving and they've got weight to them. It just don't. Yeah, and it's actually looks like a robot. Like this is one time where like clunky CGI would be good because you

want it like walking around like RoboCup. You know, you don't exactly like sometimes you see especially in like video games and some other less good like CGI. You see, everything looks kind of robatic and stuff. I don't know how to put that. People just like walk funny, but this one they just walk like humans, and it's like, man, yeah, yeah, they need the funny walk in here. I don't know if I'll defend it because I would say that's how they're supposed to walk, because but then that's

not how they walk in the other movie. So that does some makes sense anyway, But like, so like I have that to say about the CGA. But then on the other hand, in this very next scene, I was like, holy shit, it's nineteen ninety two. Linda Hamilton like, okay, yeah, go ahead, because I note about that too. So so after she kind of wakes up from her nightmare, we find out it's

nineteen ninety eight. It's nineteen ninety eight, but nineteen ninety two. Linda Hamilton is chilling ont a Guatemalan beach with nineteen ninety two Edward Furlong, and then suddenly nineteen ninety two Arnold walks up and kills John Connor with a shotgun and goes on his merry way. Okay, so what do we think of this? The d aging in this I thought it looks good, right, I think it looks really good. I just think it doesn't make sense to

me because what T two is supposed to take place in ninety five? Yes, and it also came out in ninety one. Oh is it ninety one? Yeah? Okay, but it takes place in ninety five, right, correct? And so it's been three years and John Connor, who was in the middle of puberty, looks exactly the same, Okay, exactly, so I've known about that. First of all, you said the the aging looks it looks good, right, Like, I think it looks pretty good. I don't think no one ever, like, does anyone ever else ever do

it as well as like the Marvel movies do it? I think they're clearly the top. And then this is probably the best I've seen underneath that, yeah, because the only one I ever, the only other one I really remember is Tron Legacy, which is like, well that no, well like the one for the Mandalorian. Well, it looks okay, It's not terrible, but it's it's certainly not as good as Marvel, I don't think. Yeah, And then I'm curious, like, uh, so, did you

say what happened to Mrini that that he? Yeah? So the Arnold Terminator walks up and shoots him with the shotgun and kills Okay. Cool. So I'm curious if like the people that were like, like there were people that were like, yes, like when he got shot, because like, didn't a bunch of people hate this character when it came like when T two came out. I don't know about when it came out. I've certainly heard people

say that, like Edward Furlong's portrayal was annoying in that movie. Yeah, well they're wrong, well exactly like kids exactly, Like I didn't feel like that, but uh, Edward for long, like yeah, they were saying like he was wasn't a good actor. It was just kind of like a braddy. But I don't know he was exactly he was supposed to be. He was the coolest like when I was. I watched this when I was

eight years old, So like that cool older kid. He rode a dirt bike, he hung out with a cyborg kid, was living my eight year old dream. Yeah, listen the guns and roses exactly probably still my dream but still my mom dad. I love that line. Also, I wonder if those are those models, those like terminator models. What is it a eight hundred? Are those just super cheap to produce? Because like they did, they just keep sending them back, sending them back, like the same

Schwarzenegger model. Like maybe they just couldn't afford to send in a back. No, the t one on one right on, No, he's the cyberdie. It's a model and a model one on one the eight hundred. So that's like what the skin looks like, right, yeah? So yeah, so you can you know, you can have like, uh, a Honda Accord, but it could be like the s class or whatever the fuck that conventions. I don't know. We looked blast them, that's whatever. Yeah, so like the one on one is the skeleton. Oh okay, got

right, Yeah, I know we looked back. I'm like nine umbercentury. I think so, no, because it's like one of the you know when somebody you meet somebody and you're like, oh, I can't remember their name is like Ann or Anna, and then those two things are stuck in your head and no matter how many times you meet them, you're always like, fuck, I can never remember if it's Ann or Anna's like it's fucking Andrew asshole. Yeah, So no, I'm pretty sure the one on one is

the the was it making make them the model? There's a model and there's a something else. I don't know anyway, Uh yeah, so uh they couldn't have just like afforded to send another two one thousand, Like maybe they're expensive to produce. Maybe. Well, I mean with this movie, they're sending a lot of terminators back in time, Like obviously they sent this one and the one from T one, you know, at different times in the

timeline. So like, uh yeah, to be honest, it's probably a good idea to send like different models out there, so it's just not the same guy. Yeah, So well that way, Also, if there's a problem with one model, you're not fucked. If that's all you sent back, well I can see you don't work in finance, because that shit it's expensive exactly, That's what I'm saying. Another one thousand. They're like not

you know much that cost. Yeah. Also, like I'm pretty sure that Copstone drive for raris you know, like yeah, they can go fast, but you know, I'm like pretty sure that ever ever fur Long came back to film for this movie. So then, like Chris said, he's has he not grown any tall than he was when he's thirteen, because I don't get what like he would be doing as far as filming, Like why why did he need to come back to film this? Yeah? I thought you

were joking at first. Are you serious? No, I'm like, actually, I'm like nine percent sure it likes serious because I think it's in the Triviua. WHOA, No, I don't think he came back to film at no. He I'm like, I'm pretty sure. Have a quote from him that said he came back to film like a little party. Why the fuck would you? Because in the credits it's it's like the likeness. Oh does it say that for long? Yeah? And they got some other kid who

looks like like the same body type or whatever. Yeah. Like when you see John Lang dead on the ground, you're like, that doesn't I don't look like him? But sitting there inspecting dead kids on the ground, Yeah, that's not John. That goes my boner anyway, that's the peel I didn't like him, not me. Also, that's totally not Arnold's back when he's walking away. Oh so I'm pretty sure. Uh so. Also, I like when I was writing this, I was like, oh, I

got it. Holy, Like the greatest thought came to mind, like how amazing would it have been if he did, like come back and film it? If like for this scene, they d aged both Arnold Anley to Hamilton, but then ran out of money so he couldn't do John, so they

just had present day like forty five year old Edward Furlong playim instead. Oh my god, he doesn't even like shavy, just got like that dirtback style facial hair that only human joke and grow no, like if you keep it that short though, right, because he's got the he's got the short one, and I like, I wanted to see what he looked like, so I typed in Edward for long twin in a Google and uh, don't get me wrong, I love Edward Furlong, like good good for him, but

uh, he looks like a version of Norman Readis that the ghost of Christmas future would show to a younger Norman Redis to scare him in a flying straight like yeah, did you look it up right now? Yeah? He does. He looks like I'm like, holy shit, he looks like Norman Readis, but like like like if Norman Red just like just lost his way, I haven't looked him up because I don't want to be sad. So alright, in the Google Edward for Long twenty twenty two, the one that's people

also ask is Edward Furlong broken? What what? Yeah? Click on it? Well, it just gives a story about, uh, do they maybe mean broke or do they literally mean like? Well, the answer the answer comes like he's admitted publicly in court that he's completely broke. The question is one broken, So well, I'm sad now. So from here we cut to Mexico City twenty two years later. It suddenly gets very chilly on a freeway overpass as a time portal appears and drops a naked lady to her death.

Uh and my only thought on this one was, man, I wish the terminators were the worst thing we had to deal with in twenty twenty. So we see under the bridge, a young couple getting busy under the soft glow of the time portal notices the fallen lady and goes to help, and as they're carrying her back to the car, the cops pull up to make everything worse. They all, like you said, they picked a shitty spot for it to drop off, because that was a good one. Hundred feet

off the ground. Yeah. Also it was literally in the middle of the bridge. Yeah, but like that that could make to the just because like if they're like that bridge isn't there anymore and they constructed the time portal there, then that's where she appear. But because or is that how it works? Because didn't they transport from Okay Genesis? Yeah, that's true. There's there's only one time portal, and I don't think they built it in the

place where they sent them to, right or did they? No, like they used in Terminator one, they used the same time portal and they go back in time in two different places, and in fact they didn't. Yeah, yeah, they definitely use the same time portal. Man, I don't even remember that. Yeah, so that means that they purposely put her in the air. No, no, because even Reese like fell out of the air into oh just not just not fucking a mile above the ground, Like

yeah, well it's just I don't know's it's random. The earth spins around and like it's floating in space and ship this is not like you don't have like GPS coordinates and ship You're like, all right, well let me put them here, can you imagine how many resistance fighters they lost because they transported them into space. I was just like a she's on a lot of five because that was kyled Reese. That first movie would have been over like a

half hour after he dies from falling and breaking his neck. You don't know the elevation of like certain situations, you know what if you like do it and they're just they just skid birth into the middle of the mountain. Yeah yeah, or just like inside a building, but the buildings filled with like uh raby dogs grabbing dogs, you know, like yehs next semestamens yep, snipped if your sky net because I guess they have detailed files because all their

terminators just kind of detailed files go in like a perfect place. So humans are dumb, definitely. Uh So, anyway, the cops show up and just like small Gripe, this scene is way too dark and this will happen a few times in the movie. And oh yes, I didn't notice that until I was watching an iPad, Like it's finely pater but the computer like it goes way up. But yeah, on an iPad it's super dark.

And I kind of get it in this first scene because they're trying to edit around the fact that she's like they're trying to not not you know, show everything, but like later on, but later on, there will be several other scenes that are in the dark that just are dark for no reason.

Anyway, as the as the officers start to harass the young couple, one of the cops tries to lift up Lady no Pants, who responds by turning him into a human shield before stealing his baton and taking out the rest of his squad in like under five seconds, making it very apparent that she is not entirely human. After she beats all those dudes up, she steals the

dude's clothes and his car and drives away. Okay, so quick bit of trivia that I wanted to read because it's pertinent to the scene and I'll forget to mention it later, but so okay, So Sarah Sarah mentions that the sky nit sent a bunch of terminators back too much. She said, there was several terminators sent back. Yeahs before it got like, you know, taken down. But anyway, one of them kill John blah blah blah blah.

Uh. She started to receive coordinates from Arnold later Anyways, so one of the coordinates led her to the okay, wait, hold on okay. So basically, basically, sorry, like I said, it didn't get time to go back. Okay. So basically, according to director Tim Miller, what was left out of the movie is that Sarah also receives coordinates from Grace's arrival. So during even say that I think, I said, I think they even say that in the movie, do you They don't. Yeah,

but they don't get It's not like they show Sarah or anything. I think she said, yeah, she got to Yeah, she got two text messages about two portals opening Mexico. Okay. But during that scene, Sarah's truck can be seen almost crashing into Grace's time bubble. Oh is that her truck? So it left out of the movie. But I went back and looked, and I'm appreciate you can see that red jeep in there, like it almost crashes into that time bubble. So I was like, holy shit,

like that's something like yeah, which I read that thing. And then when I was watching this last time, I was like, oh, okay, interesting, that is interesting. Yeah, I mean, fuck, it might as well bring it up. Now, why would she get coordinates for non Skynet terminator type things. That's never explained. Oh, yes, it is it. Yeah what wait, Carl, we'll get there. But Carl the robot explains that what does he saying. He says that he gets he can

feel it every time a time portal opens up. Oh okay, that's it, like it has nothing to do with Skynet. It's not because it's not because he knows when the other terminators was set back to. It's literally because he says, every time a time portal opens up, it sends a shock. It sends like a temporal shockwave through that he can feel. So he he he knows about the all of them before they're going to happen, So how could she get to all of them in time? He fills them right

before they come. That's true, got him there, got got him there right before they come. I usually fill stuff right before I come. Sorry, he said, yeah, he did. That's my fault, God to watch all my words around you guys. I'm sorry mom, all right. Anyway. The next morning, we meet Danny, a young woman living with her father and brother in Mexico City. We see her go home and make her dad breakfast and get her brother out of bed so that the two of

them can go to work at the local auto plant. After they leave, another time, portal opens up in the air above their apartment complex and outfalls yet another naked person, but this time it's a very polite man who doesn't steal anyone's close. Yeah. Also, also, the dog that they have a dog in this name is Taco, and Taco's a good name for dog.

That's my only not for that n Yeah, And I just I really laughed at this scene because the terminator shows up, lands on the ground, immediately speaks Spanish to the woman in front of him and like says good morning, and then like copies the shirt that she's holding. But I just think it's really funny sky that Skynette has gotten more agressive and realized that maybe they shouldn't send a giant white dude with a thick Austrian accent down to infiltrate.

Yeah, exactly. Skynet was one thing, But this is Legion, that's true. It is much smarter. It's Legion's woke bro. Yeah. Well this movie was set in twenty twenty two, right, so twenty twenty are you sure about that? Yeah? It's twenty two years after nineteen ninety eight. Okay, Okay, well that's why I made that twenty twenty comment earlier. Yeah, well I thought you're wrong, but real fast. Yeah,

but also so therefore Legion came out after twenty twenty. So yeah, they're they're like, oh, it's more inclusive, not just a bunch of white dudes, which I still hold. My point true of Skynet was dumb because they're like, oh, let's make some infiltration units. All right, let's make this guy six to two super jacked in a very thick accent. He'll

fit right in. No one will fucking suspect that guy. You know, it's like, where were you getting all this like protein and shit, bro, Like he will just get gigantic and uh, there's nothing suspecially about you at all. When he felt when that rednine falls out of the sky, I was just thinking it maybe the future is just one hundred feet higher for some reason. I don't know. It's like fu trauma. Everything's just built

on top of everything else. Uh So anyway, I mean, yeah, they wouldn't have the we already discuss this, but if it was like a one to one, they wouldn't have like the time machine, just on ground level, probably in a building. That's true, very true. End up on a platform, and yeah, it just keeps getting higher and higher.

Yeah. Uh. As Danny and her brother take the bus to work back at the apartments, the very polite man visits Danny's dad to find her and manages to smile the whole time, even though Danny's dad is kind of rude and the family dog will not shut the fuck up. Dog's racist as fuck, doesn't like Mexican, Yes exactly, he's just barking all the time because it's the terminator. Yes, thank you, Joe. All right, well

I didn't know if you guys knew that. Sorry, okay, uh, you're all like, I don't know the lure and like this is dumb, and then I gotta explain it to you. And then you joke about a dog bark Well you know that's because that's the thing. You're like, Oh, we know, your fucking moron, Get the why even on this podcast, idiot, you're stupid and ugly. I mean, like the ugly part was a little overboard. I mean I agree in the stupid, but the ugly part, oh, I thought I mean, I can't help that.

I'm dumb and ugly. I was born this way. Yeah, that's not very fucking woke of you, guys, is it. You need to learn some ship from Legion where my minority is. We don't need to be woke. Come on, that's true. Also true, that's true ship. Anyway, Danny and her brother arrive at work to find that her brother's job has been automated, so Danny gets pissed and goes to talk to the man, even though stealing his job is not even close to the worst thing the robots

will do to him today. I like it. Do you think I was gonna say, like, do you think this is all of a sudden? Like they probably give warning about that, but maybe not. Maybe there's dicks like that. Yeah, there's a robot now it seems like the kind of diggischh thing a factory would do. Plus it's clear they don't like him, Like it's clear the manager doesn't like Oh yeah, true. Do they install that robotic arm in the middle of the night just to be a shit?

He's gone, all right, get in here, guys, and like construction clearly works. What would be better if it was the only automated section in the entire factory floor, and it did a bad job. So about this time, Danny's dad shows up to their work to bring them their sack lunches, And we also see Lady Stolen Pants sneaking into the plant disguised as a

security guard with a very poorly concealed gun. She's got like a jacket hanging over her right shoulder and the gun in her hand, which is a big like shotgun, and it is just there's fully like half a foot or a foot of it sticking out of the bottom of the jacket. But whatever. Yep. Well, see in Terminator one, Kyle Reese had that same thing, but he saw off the shotgun and kept it under his trench coat. What what is sawing it off to so you can keep it under your trench

coat? It's bigger spread, right, Oh, I thought that would be great if we just take Yeah, yep, it is. You cant sorry, I have no idea, that's what I was asking, But that makes sense. Bigger spread. What about so you can't use the slug with that? Then you lost me. Slug slug with shotguns, it's usually uh yeah, but can you not use a slug with it. You can. I don't know if they make they possible you I don't know. I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty sure you can you can because I'm like, I played a

lot of video games and slug is one of the AMMO shotgun. Okay, all right, so now we see Danny arguing with the manager over her brother's job and the job of potentially everyone on the factory floor. And I think the scene is just there to show that she's kind of like a leader and willing to fight for what she believes in. Yeah, yes, yeah, I like this movie. But and they do a pretty decent job with all the characters that for hers for in my opinion, But I'll get that later.

Yeah, this is basically the only time in the movie that actually show any sort of leadership things from they Yeah, well, I mean I guess no like but but then like all of a sudden, it's crammed into like one scene and it's exactly that. But that scene really bothers me. There's

no there's no anyway. So uh, Danny's dad finds her brother as Danny is walking back from the meeting, and as soon as he sees her, the sack lunch turns into a gun, which he points at Danny, and then he uh forgets that he can do it for the rest of the movie. Yep, that's true, that he can turn his hands into guns. Very true. He prefers the blade. Yeah, I'm trying to think of a somebody that's like. But when it's the fail of the steal, I

don't know. I'm sure it's from something anyway. I don't know. See, I thought maybe he had the gun, like he reads into the gun. She's like, what are you talking about? Like she she was like, Erica was like, what are you talking about? His hand? He fucking turned his hand again. Why does he keep using it? I'm like, no, he didn't. So we went back and looked at it and I was like, oh, yeah, it kind of does, all right.

He definitely does fair enough. Before he can shoot, though, Lady Stolen Valor blasts him with a shotgun about ten times, revealing that he's actually a terminator. Danny and her brother freak out as they are dragged to safety by Lady no Chill. She also she also says the classic terminator line come with me or You're dead. In thirty seconds earlier, she also said smung as along the lines of like when she needs a close roum, you know,

she says that classic terminator line, don't think me yet? Is that? Is that a terminator line? No, she's just say you're clothes give them to me. Oh yeah, yeah, I was waiting for that too. Yeah. They keep like, no, man, I think they're cute

enough with all the callbacks. I don't think we need like no, no, that's fine, But like, I just like to think that the writer that added that line argued with like the rest of the writers, just like super adamant that that was the original line in the movie, like no, no, I'm pretty sure it's come with me, you're dead in the next thirty seconds. Yeah, James Camer's over there, like, dude, I fucking wrote and directed that movie, Bro, I know what it says.

No, no, fuck you? Yeah, shit all right, arguing with them like come with me if you want to live. He's like, yeah, I've read all the Extended Universe wikis, so I think I would know a thing or two. I haven't seen the movie in fifteen years, but I'm pretty sure he says come with me in the next thirty seconds. He was hear that or come with me if you want some ribs. But then if we do that, we have put Danny and our brother working at the

chili's, and you know you don't want to that. Nobody wants to work at a chili exactly. So now the very polite terminator gets up and chases them down, forcing Lady Hammerley to show them how she got the name Lady Hamerley. She hits them with the hammer. Yeah, she gets sleep. I've really like these fights. Like the fights, yes, at the beginning

of the movie at least, are pretty sweet. The especially the sledgehammer move where she's pounding his head in like multiple times and then the last time his liquid metal shit like grabs the hammer and pulls himself back up with it. Yeah. I thought that shit was cool. Yeah, except for instead of just robo blade arming her, he just pushes her to the side and then

walks away. It's like, dude, just fucking she's right there, just fucking robo blader bro real quick, he's it's the same fucking movement and then you know, go after your target. I know, but like, your life would have been a lot easier if you would have just fucking like stabbed it. Right there called it to day boom, You're done? Why you gotta like make this whole thing about it. If there's one thing Terminators are

about, its laziness. Yeah. Yeah, Like hers said, like one very big plus for this movie is that the action scenes are prett damn good.

And I'm is that like a mixture of Cameron and Miller. Maybe I think it's Tim Miller because if you go back and watch the first dead Pool, the action scenes are very similar, Okay, and he is a visual effects guy, and so I think he he's pretty damn good and better than a lot of modern addition directors at knowing how to use CG in a way that's going to make it look a little more realistic, and how to mix it with the practical stuff. So I'm assuming that's why Cameron probably like was

like kind of like chosen basically, Yeah, I would think so. And also Deadpool was like a huge hit. So oh. So the fight ends when the Terminator is eventually pinned down and Danny's brother drops a huge engine on top of him, and we find out Lady Hammersley, Lady Hammerley's name is actually Grace. Grace warns that the robots still ain't dead, and they go escape in a car. Ah. Man, I just realized didn't make any Grace in her fire jokes. God damn it. That's an entire podcast of

wasted opportunities. God. All right, so thank you for listening to the show. We are going to stop this recording. We're going to go back and re record everything, so exactly we're gonna start over. I don't know how you're listening to this, but whatever. Oh man, Brett Butler would have loved that. I don't know when she's firing something anyway. Yeah, I'll get in there somewhere. Yeah, different, Brett Butler. I don't know. We got we got a lot of stuff to work with, but

we have. I mean, clearly this is a deep well, but we haven't hammered out the details unlike Grace did when she was under fire from the terminator. Oh shit. Uh So, as Grace explains who she is and why she's there, uh, the terminator busts through the wall of the plant

in a huge bulldozer to chase them onto the highway. He uh so, before that, you see them, you see the red like the Rev nine chasing them right just through the factor like so yeah, absolutely, they chased them through the factory, that's all before the hammer ste and I love how they they always have all the unning terminators do a very specific run with their

hands like completely flat. Because Robert Patrick did that during A two. It makes me curious if that's how Robert Patrick actually runs or if he like started running, and then James Cameron was like, Robert, what the fuck are you doing? A terminator would not run like a regular person. He would run with his hands flat. Do it again, like treat them like he's stupid, even though he didn't tell him how to do it. He's like,

why would you think that a robot would run like that? Then like makes the rest of the crew laugh at him because that seems like something that James Cameron would do. I don't know, there's there's another good, uh way to filter out terminators. All right, we're doing wind sprans and somebody's just like hands fat, like, all right, terminator, get them. I would like you to casually jog please, oh fuck, oh fuck, So I'm sorry real quick. This scene is funny to me, and there's

probably a better joke in there somewhere. But so this movie set in twenty twenty Legion comes in the future. It spilt by nerds and millennials and zoomers where the fuck you're called? Uh, But somehow they were able to like program in how to drive a clutch. Uh, because he's definitely driving a clutch with his bulldozer, and I just don't think that's possible. Oh shit, you got a guide joke in there, all right, it's more of

a uh that's boomer humor ship. That's like a fucking Union joke. There's no fucking way that this guy knows that to drive a clutch, am I right, guys, no fucking what I mean? Do you know how to drive a clutch? Yes? Oh yeah he does. I know you do, because you manuel. Yeah he is like not a truck, like not a fucking oh yeah he does, a real truck. But I know how to drive a manual. Yeah, I know how to drive a stick ship. Damn you welt we could him like some oh but like in an Italian

accent. Apparently this whole episode is just gonna be racist racist fuck Okay, so let's see. Oh so they're getting chased down the highway. Eventually, Grace has to get out of the cab to try to stop the terminator, which she does by pitting him to a seat with some of Zeus's lightning bolts. However, it's revealed that this terminator is actually a two for one, as the liquid metal skin separates from the metal skeleton to go fight Grace.

They're driving so okay, so there Grayson, Danny and her brother are driving in Diego, Yes, Diego. Sorry, they are driving in F one fifty, and I'm pretty sure that they could Like are those big ass tractor trucks that he's driving? I feel like those are super slow? But whatever, it's a movie tho. I'm just being nick. They don't have good acceleration, but usually things with big engines like that don't. Can't they like build up a decent amount of speed? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I

don't know. That truck was kind of a beater. I wrote that note, and then then I saw that they got cut off by like a by like a bus that was pulling. Oh yeah, because that's when it catches up to them, Like that's when the that's when the writ that's when it

Yeah, anyway, but you have to make a sudden turn yea. Yeah, So I was just gonna say like a couple things here, which is that the car chase scene makes it apparent that Tim Millan knows how to put together an action sequence definitely better than probably the last couple of Terminator directors. Yes, this definitely has like a Cameron fill to it. Yeah, the

car crashes feel a little more real. I also think that they made a distinctive choice when they made the liquid terminator matt black instead of the shiny chrome, because everything nowadays in CGI looks way too shiny, and I think they recognize that. And so I mean, I don't know for a fact, I don't know why they did it, but I do think that the matte black like liquid ooz stuff looks way better than anything chrome would have. Yeah, but the best color combination is silver and black, so I can see

why they want to do sure with the terminator. Very true. And then the other thing is I just the splitting into two things is a really solid concept. Yes, that I really wish had not been spoiled in the trailer. Oh did it? I don't even well. Oh yeah, that was like the trailer, the first major trailer that came out, and it was in like every trailer they showed that scene where he separates for the first time trailers. Yeah, I really wish they hadn't spoiled that because that would have

been the coolest fucking thing to see for the first time. Yeah, but I didn't notice that on the trailer. Like I would definitely say, this is probably the coolest terminator they've made so far. And yeah, I think so this wasn't Cameron today. I'm curious whose idea it was to have him split. Yeah. Yeah, it's the best concept for a new kind of

terminator. They haven't been able to come up with anything since. Ye really, which it's weird because like it's weird because like this is basically what they hadn't Terminator three, but they didn't think to pull it apart. Yeah, exactly, because that's pretty much what it is, isn't it. She's like, yeah, she has both. I'm sure she can shape shift and she's got a skeleton. Yeah, but yeah. Uh. The liquid Terminator then throws one of the lightning bolts back at Danny, but Grace deflects it and

it goes somewhere else probably doesn't matter where. As Grace fights off the Terminator, he takes out one of their rear tires, causing then the other tire to go eventually and the car to crash. At this point, Danny finds that lost lightning bolt, but unfortunately it is inside her brother's vital ordits. I was really hoping, I was really hoping that Danny would be like Grace helped me, it's Diego. And then Grace went over be like, Diego looks more like a rod to me. See, I thought she would be

like Dieg. No, That's why I want you mention his name. I'm glad you guys mentioned his name because my only joke was that I refuse to mention his name because he dies so fast. I kept calling him Danny's brother. That's what I had until until I was like, definitely rude. So anyway, as as the sclenator frees itself from the wreckage of the truck, the liquid Terminator steals another car and drives at full speeded Danny, forcing Grace

to pull her out and basically sacrifice her brother in a fiery explosion. Okay, real quick, sorry does okay? So, is uh that that skull like that sorry skeleton thing? Is that an sorry exoskeleton? That's an endoton because it's that's what I thought. But then I was like, the exoskelet that's be mentioned in a shitload of stuff, And I was like, so,

I'm pretty sure it's not X because it's outside. But then I was like, okay, okay, just so I don't sound stupid later, got it, although I asked, I'm gonna leave that all in just so I make sure everybody knows that I am stupid. Well, after he dies, maybe da ghost all right, that one. I just came up with that one. Impressed. So Grace and Danny start to run, but they get cornered by the two Terminators, who are now on both sides of them.

Uh. Grace prepares to go down fighting and tells Danny to run when they start to kill her, when suddenly, Skeletor gets slammed by a car and out pops Sarah Connor to embarrass the terminators. Sarah Conna, Yeah, this scene. We talk about this a lot. It's the old Austin powers thing, like our Scott powers. They got her surrounded, They're just like standing

there like like we're about to kill you. Be ready. Just fucking Charger just fucking go straight at her and then kill her and then they throw some more rebar at her first, like and give her a weapon. Yeah, just fucking do your mission. Kind of cocky. They're like maybe I just like to enjoy it, Like okay, Yeah. It's like when you're like get like a like a burger you haven't had in a while, You're like,

oh man, this is gonna be good. I mean, to be fair, I'm not just calling out this movie because there's this scene a terminator one where there's a car chase and the cops chasing them and they crash and the terminator crashes and the tormado disappears because the cops are there or whatever. That scene never really makes sense, so it is near flawless movie. So it's not just this movie, but also with the throwing people, which just

happens a lot. I don't know why. They're just standing there looking at her, and there's old speech later just fucking killer dude. Come on, bro, you got like you. People are like, oh, you had one job, like when somebody didn't like stock napkins at a fucking McDonald's. Like, I'm sure the person who's stock napkins has a lot more than one job, but literally, this terminator you have one job. Do we know to do it? Sure? Though, that's true, Shit, that's very

true. I got nothing I was trying to think of. He got me on that I was thinking like maybe he was thinking about like he's like shake out of stuck those napkins too. So yeah, yeah, it's like I got to come back to this factory tomorrow and take somebody else's jobs. Yeah, instead of Schwarzinger shows up and not instead of him showing up later we see him on the line like doing Danny's job, or do Danny's job for

him anyway, So Sarah gets out of the car. She she blasts the liquid terminator with like an automatic shotgun until he falls off the overpass, and then she hits the skeleton terminator with the like a rocket launcher and blows up the hell back. She goes down to, uh make sure that the liquid terminator is dead. And I like the line here, which is she gives the I'll be back, but she gives it with a different cadence, and

I just really like the delivery. So I forgot to show a clip to you guys are in the promo stuff because like I said, the the shitload of stuff and I found it, and then I didn't remember it until I woul watched the scene. But apparently little Linda Hamilton had a hard time with the I'll be back lined, And I have one minut clip if you guys want to watch it real fast. Sure explaining it? Okay? Cool? What was it like to hear her say I'll be back I think it was

great. It was a great job. I wasn't dealing and you did it. But that was in a movie, and I was amazed that someone could say in a different way the way I say it. And then I found out that she actually worked on it to make sure that you could say it in a different way. Right, you can't say it without sounding like him. I would finish, I would. You know, it's in the at the end of a very intense action scene, and it's weapons, and it's

triple triple digit heat and you're just giving it everything. And then every time I would finish with that line, I would look at Tim and you would go, sounds like Arnold again and drop the grenade and turn around and say it. And now I go, and you go, so do you decide to say I'm just gonna say it? Tim guided me through it because it really was almost impossible to say it after three decades of hearing it in your

head with his voice. Okay, so yeah damn that, which which makes sense just because every single time we're like, I'll be I'll be bank Like, yeah, absolutely, I'm glad they worked on it because honestly, like, that was a really good delivery. Yeah, that was good delivery. It like a lot of that cutesy throwback shit I don't really like in this movie, but that one in particular, I was like, that was good.

Pointed out when you was different enough and okay, gotcha, just because yeah, I'm curious which one's anyway, but yes, that one was good. Yeah. Uh So, like I said, as Sarah is going down like off the freeway to make sure that the liquid terminator is dead, uh, she has to turn around when Grace forces Danny to steal her car and they drive away and we just get a son of a bitch out of her once again. Linda, I'm sorry, Sarah, finish your fucking job.

You've been sitting there hunting terminators for the past what twenty five years? Yeah, almost got one dead. Just go fucking kill it. Call it a day, you know how to. I mean my initial thought was like, oh, she wants to go find a car, like your car's like special or whatever, but then she finds it by tracking his cell phone. You don't just go fucking finish the fucking terminator, Like, yeah, this movie would have been like twenty five minutes long, but like, do your fucking

job. How would she have killed it that? Because that was like the two one thousand part. Though, I'm curious like what she was gonna do with that, because that that that's a good point. That's what she was gonna do. I don't know, fucking thermite or something. I don't know, but she's been killing him for I mean, those might have been Skynet terminator. I mean she went down there with the confidence that she was definitely gonna kill him. Yeah. Yes, just fucking finish it up. God,

yeah, yeah, yeah. Joe just sounds like Joe sounds like corporate America right now. I don't just do your job, like maybe you just do your fucking job. Sound like my dads. So, as Grace and Danny are driving away, Grace tries to find some water and medicine in the car as she explains that Danny's foster parents are dead. We see the Terminators

reintegrate and continue their pursuit. Wait real quick. She also says that she says that it needs physical contact to copy people and that they don't survive. Yeah, and I was trying to think of an instance if any other movies were she a copies of person, and then I remembered it copies Sarah.

So I think she's just saying, like usually, Grace is probably just being a dick kind of just like, you can't go home because your dad's probably dead and I'm not going to take a chance of you going back there. Don't they say that in another movie though, that it needs physical contact? Yes, I think they establish that in terminor two, I think, but I'm not positive. I don't think so. No, I don't remember. Well, let's see, he copied, He's copies Tad No, No,

Janelle, Janelle, the dude and the mental Institution. Yeah, he steps on him when he's like liquids throw down there. Yeah, let's see he morphs into the helicopter but doesn't take that guy's shape. He gets Sarah like and he stabs her through the the Oh, he does stab her through the shoulder. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, and he's like called to John, So yeah, I guess I don't explicively say that, but sorry,

I'm just going through the whole movie in my head right now. Take he never well, well, he did like fistfight with Arnold at some point, so why didn't double as Arnold? Maybe he's just not good at accents. He's like me, like, come on, do it now, Like, dude, that's not you, that's not hello, John, I am over here, And they're like, hold now, why you cry? Why do you come on over here? Like he's doing like a French French accident French all of a sudden, like does over here? Arnold's like, where do

you think I am from? It's because I have an accent, doesn't mean it's like any accent. I know when that want you cry me? Yeah? Wow, okay, keep going. Sorry Italians, if you're listening, First of all, thank you, Second of all, I'm sorry. Third of all, you talk funny anyway talk that's funny. Good. So Grace crashes. Oh sorry, so she's Grace and Danny are driving. She crashes from the terminator fight. Uh. So, the pair stops to rob a

pharmacy for the medicine she needs. Basically, despite Danny's protests, she tells Danny that she was built to or wait does she say this later? The scene? That scene was why you look that up? That scene was very relatable to me when Grace crashes because the exact same thing happened to me after the matter ill wore off. I was like, because she's like, oh,

Stuf's wearing off, and then she crashed. But then like the scene where they get out of the car because like before they go to the pharmacy, uh, Grace is having trouble walking and Danny gets out of the car. Yeah, and that scene is basically me when I was twenty five years old, Like Grace Yell's like, come back, I have to protect you, and Danny's like, you can't even walk. I'm going to the police.

In that exchange was the twenty five year older and leaving a bar at two am after like annoying a girl I was talking to you because I had too many laser beam shots. You know, laser don't remember those? Remember, I don't know not remember what was in those because I even looked up the recipe online and it's not the same. Because I know I had crime dement in it, but I don't remember what else was in there, but like it tasted like scope it does it, So it wasn't that bad as

far as a shot. Yeah. She's also like if you put you and a hundred coups and him, you'll have a hundred dead couffs. I'm like A, I mean yeah, But anyway, I'm pretty sure she explains it here. It's that basically she's been augmented in a way that she's she's tuned up to fight a terminator for like a few minutes, because if you don't beat a terminator in a few minutes, you're basically probably dead. So that's why she's crashing so hard, is that her body basically completely drains itself of

energy fighting like that. I mean, I'm the same way when I run. If I don't stop running within like sixty seconds, I'm like pretty much like bad so and I will also rob a pharmacy exactly like the way they break in this pharmacy, Like they run in there and she starts like chugging water and like just like crashing shit. And do you think that Like there's like an older like Mexican couple that's already there. Do you think they were

like fucking pinche white people, like the first time in Mexico? Huh? And every time I went to a pharmacy in Mexico, like they didn't ask for a doctor prescription. Was definitely that was definitely my first I didn't write it down, but I told Erica that I was like bullshit and like not the fact that she's augmented, there's a terminator chasing him, the fact that they can't buy drugs in Mexico without a prescription, maybe it changed. Yeah, this movie was set in the future. Oh yeah, yeah, so

I was just they break it to the pharmacy. She tries to get the prescription drugs. The dude won't give it to her without a prescription, like you just said, So she just basically pulls out the gun and takes the medicine that she needs. As she's leaving, she basically passes out. Danny has to grab the gun and drag her out of the pharmacy. As she's dragged out, they find Sarah waiting for them with a brand new car. Tells a pharmacy assistant assistant that's just thirsty as fuck. I'll help, I'll

help you come on. I'm like, of course you will, dude, it's got two fucking pretty girls. Oh yeah, I'm surprised I haven't made it a comment. And how hot Danny is yet, I figure that's all I would be talking about. But all this other shit keeps pissing me off. Yeah. Uh, but Sarah totally rolls up in a wood panel station wagon, which is very much like the one they drove into Mayor too.

Yeah. Does look like okay? All right? So they get into the car and head to a motel, and on the way, Sarah throws away Danny's phone. I thought that was very funny. She's like, hey, do you have a phone? She gets nice for a second, which I think should have thrown Danny out. I don't know. She was very aggressive before that. And she's like, hey, do you have a phone? Do you think maybe I could see it? And she fucking chucks it out

the window and she has full blown, like tinfoil hat. At this point, she is like all in on every conspiracy I know she was before. Yeah, she's pretty much when we saw her in the ride, like John's like on the terminal at the motel, Sarah gives grace an ice bath and some of the medication. As they wait for her to recover, she kind of is explaining all her conspiracy shit and why she keeps her cell phone in

a potato chip bag. And I like this line too because Danny is looking at the potato chip bags and she goes, yeah, but why ten bags? And then Sarah's just like, because I really like potato chips, she said ten. Yeah, there's ten bags. I thought she said ten. Oh no, she said but why ten bags? As in, do you have ten cell phones? And then she's like, no, I just really like potato chips. That makes entirely way more sense. I was like,

she just said aluminum bags, Like there's tenfoil and aluminum foil. Like what, I'm so fucking confused. Okay, so yeah, so do you guys know if that works? Anybody off the top of their head before I tell you if it does or does it? Okay? Clue, so looked it up tracking system direct dot comment. But a bunch of other things said, uh, aluminofoil is a good conductor of electricity that include induces, a phenomenon knows is known as Faraday cage, which I think is a lost thing.

I don't know is that something? Is that something? Really it's a thing I've heard of before. But yeah, also get the lost joke. Well that's yeah, are you serious or yes? I'm really like what's a Faraday cage? It's basically like, uh, something you can put something in and no kind of signal stuff can go out. It's like, uh like if you put a cell phone in a far Day cage, like you would not be able to get any signal or anything like radio waves or any other ship

in there. And there's like holes in it right, Like it's not like a completely enclosed thing. It just is the material plus it plus it like mumbles a lot. It's like here, well, yeah, lost is pretty heavy hand on the name Christian Shepherd, like lock you know russeo. Yeah, they weren't exactly what's the whatever? The opposite of ham fisted is chicken fisted. I was gonna say ham held palm. Okay, so does it work? So so it Yeah, it disrupts the reception from the GPS signal

to and from a GPS device. Uh So when aluminum foil is wrapped around his cell phone, it creates a barrier and prevents the radio waves from reaching the cell phone. Like all metals, aluminum possesses the quality of attenuation effectiveness. This gives the aluminifolio bit the aluminum foil the ability to absorb electromen electro magnetic waves such as radio signals of a GPS. So yes is even though Arnold pretty much says later it's like, no, it didn't fucking work.

No. I think what he says is like, if you want to keep your phone potato chip bag, keep it in Oh okay, yes, okay, as in, every time she pulls it out, you trace it. Yeah, okay, okay. As Grace reboots, basically we get a future flashback showing the time that she almost died protecting her commander from some terminators and subsequently volunteered to become a super soldier. So the dude orders Grace to, yeah, to get uh get the command? That was That was that Danny.

I'm pretty sure it was Dance because they wereering her face so much that I think it had to be Danny, because for some reason, this movie is obsessed with not telling us who Dan, like that Danny is the commander in the future. Yeah, yeah they did that, I hate yeah, so they yeah, they definitely cover up her face, except you could tell it what I think. I'm pretty sure it was a female, but yeah,

yeah, you can kind of tell. But yeah, and this movie takes a lot from uh my favorite video game, Fallout in New Vegas. You got the cybernetic implants, you got Legion, and well, I guess that's pretty much it. So it's like desert ye, yeah, all right, Korea. Oh yeah, there you go, there you go. There's

guns. I don't know anyway, Yeah, there's human beings. So Grace wakes up to Sarah questioning her while holding a gun in her face, but pretty easily flips it around on her because she's, you know, a robot super soldier. So Grace and Sarah, Oh sorry, I forgot to mention that Sarah had locked Danny out of the room so that she could question Grace. Grace goes and lets Danny in, and then Grace and Sarah basically swap

backstories. We find out that there were actually several terminators sent to kill John, including the one that did kill him in Guatemala, and that basically Sarah has spent her at least the last few years hunting terminators. She says, Sarah says that the Terminator's carried out orders in the future that never happened, so quick question. So Okay, so I know this is basically don't question

because's impossible answer for the time travel question. So this universe basically has the same approach to like time travel stuff as like lost right, like what like basically like whatever happened happened sort of things, So like don't I think the Marvel movies might take the same approach to where it's like you can't change anything that already happened, like something that so it would just split into its own

thing exactly. It kind of splits off into a new universe. Okay, it seems like Okay, I don't know for sure, but I'm only asking that because at first I was like, well, why in determined ors just like shut down or pull Marty McFly and disappear, you know, But like I think that only is like is that exclusive to the back of the future

that it might be like one or two more things that do that. Maybe, yeah, I think there's other things that do it, but that is definitely yeah oh Looper, ok wait, yeah, definite the movie, Yeah, the PSPOS movie. Oh, oh Looper, Okay, I was thinking of it, okay anyway, okay, okay, Yeah, but yes, so when you saw that, were you like fucking biting from back the future? Yeah, okay, I was just mad he didn't play Johnny be good

fucking that's how. That's how Joseph Gordon Levitt beat just shred something and fingers are too slow now, old man. So also, she said something right here about drinking and until she blacks out, right, Yeah, good for her. Yeah, she says, I hunt terminators and I drink. I drink until I pass out. She says, she hunts. Okay, never

mind, she said, I didn't know. Okay, I was gonna say I do the same thing, but for some reason that she said, she she's like, I drink till I blackout and then cry while explaining to the dog how good of a boy is? That's my mistake. Sorry, I was like, I do the same thing. But I was also coming out of the bathroom when Erica was watching that part. So yeah, me too. But if you replace terminators with my junk and touch and we're the same

and then blackout, do you feel bad about it? So you're like, drink Now I touched my junk and then I drink till I black eyes. So yeah, yeah, I feel bad about it. You're like shame.

So uh, Sarah demands to go with Grace and Danny, correctly pointing out that Grace's lack of knowledge about the present is a pretty big weakness because basically she's like, you don't realize that cell phones basically make you super trackable, that there's fucking surveillance cameras everywhere, so like, yeah, you're not gonna

last very long. But also like throughout this movie, which I didn't notice till this last time then I watched it, Grace gives up, like not gives up, but like it's pretty quick a few times where she's like, we're about to die. You should probably run and I'll hold them off as long as you can, because it's happened. It happens at least a few times this movie. Uh, you should probably run, and I don't know. So she's very like, she's very about get just get the fuck away

from him, don't don't fight. Yeah, she absolutely, well, that's she says it pretty early in the movie. That's again when she's explaining it, you if you don't beat the terminator in the first few minutes, you're not gonna beat it. So it's like, if you don't get if it's not done immediately, she probably thinks that this mission is basically botched and that she has to just hide Danny. Yeah, but wait the first few minutes as far as what like the first few minutes of the fight so well she

recharges though, does she not? Is she out of like she does? But she's not out of superpowers, but she obviously has to keep taking that medicine just to be able to keep fighting. Like she's kind of out of it for the rest of the movie, like not completely out of it. Maybe she like, okay, okay, that makes more sense, like she's on the medication, or she's like, no, man, I don't want to do that stuff no more like the medication. She's like, oh I'm

clean. Now I'm clean, and you know, okay. So something I just something I just thought of is they tattooed the coordinates on her, But why didn't they tattoo what drugs she needed and how much that's true like a metal alert bracelet or something exactly. I mean, yeah, I mean you can't take it bracelet with you because you know, that you can tattoo that shit fuck exactly. Yeah, Why isn't she all mementoed out? This is horseship. You guys are asking them wrong questions. Why don't they just tattoo

met alert stuff on old people? Now? Why don't they ship? Well, I mean they also don't have to travel through time. But in case they like lose their bracelet or the bracelet falls off, you're like, oh wait, let's look at their ted Oh wait, near mind. Okay, this is gonna get dark, let's keep going. Instead of a thug life, it just says diabetes across their chest or their stomach neck tattoo just yeah in old English, or a cursave or something. Doubt do not resuscitate,

all right? So uh, they get back in the car. While they're on the road, Sarah reveals that she has been receiving anonymous text messages alerting her every time a terminator is going to show up, and then she goes and kills them. So hacks her phone and locates the anonymous snitch, only to find that the location matches the coordinates that were given to her by her commander as an emergency contact. The what Aaron just mentioned that they tattooed on

her before she time traveled. The coordinates are in Laredo, Texas, so they will have to cross the border to get there, and then Danny mentions that she knows somebody who can help them. She's going to take them to her uncle, who should be able to sneak them across the border into Texas. Go ye, So the three of them decide to ditch the car.

They hop onto a train headed north with a bunch of other migrants. At this point, we cut to some sort of data processing center where the terminator has murdered a bunch of cops and is accessing every camera in the country until he sees Danny at the train stop and then sees that the tracks end up in Laredo. And this park confuses me. Why Yeah, because I don't understand how the terminator knows they're going to Laredo because that's where the tracks end

up. Men the tracks end in tech. I don't know Laredo, Texas. That's what I'm saying is like train tracks go through places. Maybe it just goes there and back just for plot maybe, But then also they're on the train for a little bit, but then they get off to go to her uncle's house, and then he then takes them to a third location where they actually cross the border. Well, again, I don't understand how he would know they were going to Laredo. He's probably just waiting at the border

at this point. I don't know. Yeah, No, that is a very good I just like the computer really focuses in on Laredo, Texas, and I'm like, you don't know where they're going, Like you know they're on that train, great, go be on the train tracks, but like you don't know they're going to Laredo, Texas. Exactly. It could have edited a thing where like you know, the train conductors like up there in the front, like next up Laredo Texas, and he holds up a sign

that says Laredo Texas. Yeah, but they all got to get kicked off, like you're not allowed on here, just cargo and everybody hops off. Boom problem solved. Plot you go closed, or like or like Danny or like the girls who are like holding up a sign like like Hitchiker's doing old movies that says Laredo Texas. Just as who will pick him up? Exactly? Uh So that night on the train, Danny wants to hear about how the world ends, so Grace tells her about the nuclear apocalypse, endless war,

countless human deaths. You know that old chestnut judgment day. Yeah, the movie is still too dark. This is another scene that put in the dark. I can't I can't see shit. I watched it today during the day and I closed the blinds and I literally could not see anything. I'm watching it right now and it's Yes, it is very dark. And the stupid thing is that I'm nine nine percent was shot during the day. It could be, but just because of how dark it is, I don't know

just whoever was darkening their scenes. That's why it's called dark Fate. Oh okay, that makes a lot of sense. You know what complaint with Tractor? Yes? Yeah, okay, So, uh, something I never mentioned in this movie. Why did Legion want to kill humans? Like they're very specific in Terminator, They're very specific in Age of Ultron, which is just basically the age of Ultron. James Spader is just a dicky But they don't mention like literally would have took one line, like you know they saw humans

as a threat. Boomah. It's just like they uploaded AI to the data center, and now all humans are dying or something. Yes, they just decided, like Legion just decided that all humanity had to die, no real reason. I think it was supposed to assume that it was the same reason, right as a skin. It's like four words you can throw in there. Yeah, supposed to be true. We can also assume a bunch of other stuff about the terminators and all that shit that we already know from the

other movies, but true, but that I don't know. And also why Grace just doesn't tell Danny. I know they mentioned it later, like you told me the Danny of the past wouldn't understand it, but it was just said that, yeah, and it was just such a shittily set up thing exactly. So that's my note here is that the movie continues to use Sarah to try and convince you that Danny's child will be the leader of the resistance,

despite it being painfully clear what they're setting up. Like I it's it's just really pointless to me to try and hide that Danny is the new John. I don't understand why they would do that. It seems very stupid. I think what you need to start doing is drinking while you watch movies, because I didn't notice that at all until I was surprised. I was like, oh, okay, all right, but I probably wouldn't notice. That's why I watch it drunk the first time, and it's o'er the second time.

Uh so uh. They then arrive at Danny's uncle's place and pretty easily convince him to help them. Also real quick. When they're driving. Uh okay, yes, so yeah. When they're on the truck headed there, Sarah notices that Grace is watching Danny as she sleeps, and I couldn't tell. They're trying to imply, like Grace like in love with Dany or something. Do is that like a cup? Maybe a couple of times, but

it's very very very subtle. Yeah, it's hard to tell. I can't tell if it's just that she idolizes Danny or if she's actually in love with Danny, but just like that, that's that's specifically like she's just like you have Sarah watching her as she's like looking down, but she might as well be pet in her head as she's sleeping. But yeah, Chris used to watch me when I slept on your mom's couch, So that's true. Did

you pet his head? I did not, I really wanted to. Okay, I mean, but did you really love me or you just love SpongeBob like you were just mad that I was blocking? He probably loved you because he associated you with sponge exactly conditioning. Ye. So they where are we? Oh? Yeah, so Danny's uncle is going to help him, so they set out north to the border. They also before that, we see that, uh, Danny's trying to get like tell her unc what's going on

and uh like that that their machines or whatever. Yeah, she says robot, yeah, robots, and then he doesn't believe her. And then we see Grace kill a fly like cuts a flying Yeah, Like she pulls out an f cuts of fly in half, and it's her killing a fly with the knife, more or less impressive than Daniel Song catching with chopsticks? Man, I think, I legit think the chopstick thing is more impressive because the

fly is still alive. Okay, you know what I mean, Like it takes some finesse exactly, it takes some finesse to keep that shit alive. Maybe Ralph Macho is just that week though, to where he was like, you like, couldn't kill it. I don't know, I like it, You're yell just then sounded like mister miak, yeah yeah, and you. I mean, this is a con not a contrast, but you contrast to the scene of tmade or two where they proved to Miles Dyson and his wife.

But also they do kind of a good job here, where like t O is like whatever, like I don't give a shit, like yeah, I'm a fucking coote and he's like, you're my niece. I'm gonna help you. Yeah, I just I just want to make sure these people are not putting you in danger, like yeahah. Also, it would have been really great if he would have made her cut her skin off and she's like, I'm a human. He's like do it or no? Or no no. He's like, well, how can you prove it? And then Sarah's

like, you should probably cut your skin off. Yeah, Like that's that's what actually would have happened, is Sarah's like, no, why don't you shave off a few inches? Well, you know, the last person just cut their skin off, Like oh, bob, oh, that's the other thing I don't think I've mentioned so far because it annoyed me, so I don't want to talk about it. But Grace and Sarah like hate each other,

like they're very antagonistic towards each other. Yeah, it's a start it like I mean, start later, but I'm just saying like they start off very antagonistic. But she's like that with Arnold and then she drops it right away too. So well, yeah, because they both want to be the leader. That's why. Yeah, they're they're they're butting heads. They're like, it's just Simon and Garfunkle. Wait, which one Simon Sarah Connor? Okay, so which one's better? Yeah? Exactly, because I don't Paul

Simon, Yeah, sar Connor. His first name is Paul. Yeah, Paul Simon. His best work was his solo. Why was I thinking his first name was simple? Simple Simon Jesus Christ. Isn't that the thing from Tropic Thunder? I have no idea that that's Jack. Oh, that's simple Jack? Okay, Okay, but does a does Johnny Garfunkle like Art Garfunkle is taller, just like fucking just like Grace. Well, everyone's taller than Paul Simon. Yeah, he's got the pro like does he does he?

Like does he suck? Or like no, like Simon was just kind of he like wrote the songs and the music and Garfunkle kind of saying them. So did Garfunkle like start working at a Harbor store after that, like they broke up? Or I don't know. I've mainly just followed Paul Simon because he's fucking awesome. Apparently everybody did. Paul Simon's song I know is the popular one, the like the eighties one that the Chevy Chase, Oh yeah you can kill Me? Yeah, that one's great, that one is good.

But yeah, you should listen to the album Graceland and everybody out there. Julio down by the school yard, Yes, come on that. Yeah, I don't know, you don't know that song. Maybe there's no way you haven't heard that song. Maybe I don't know you did on Sesame Street. Yeah, that song is about two gay boys? Is it? Is that? What it's about? Me? Which? One? Pretty sure?

Me and Julio down by the schoolyard are they? I mean, I know they talk about like going to jail and going to hell and all that stuff, but I thought it was more about like some weird time that happened Chris's mind. What that was like the first time I found out that the singer from the Bee fifty two's was gay, I was like, what, yeah, that every time I think of that band or what were you there when I when I figured it out, No, but you told me that,

and it just fucking it makes me laugh every time. But I'm like, that guy is like the definition of eighties gay, Like he is the poster child of eighties gay. By the way, when I figured out, I was like, I was like twenty four. When I went it was someone mentioning that, oh yeah he's game, Like who wha what? What? What? And I was like shocked. I was like, no, it makes complete sense. I just how did I not figure that? Like, think about that time? It was likely yeah, yeah, yeah it was.

I was like, okay, yeah, alright. One last thing, I implore everybody did listen to Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover the song Grace Land, the song and the album right, yes, yep, okay, but like the song Grayland and that whole album is amazing, So do it do it now? I mean, don't stop listening to this true, But once it's done, it's been around for thirty years. It can wait, all right, and that's going to do for part one of Terminator Dark Fate.

As usual, we released both parts simultaneously, so Part two is available now check it out. So I guess all that's left to say is thanks for listening and will hear the party resta
