me young when I saw T1 and what memorable to me exactly the horror element of movie.
> “Terminator allows viewers to have a legitimate sense of discovery while watching the movie, to learn crucial plot details largely as Sarah learns them, which makes for very efficient storytelling.”
feel today interesting story points would get shown in trailer.
- mattnewton 4y agoOne of the things I wished they did even more is keep it ambiguous whether the terminator is really a machine just a bit longer into the film. Everyone else thinks Sarah is hysterical, including herself ant first, and Kyle sounds just nuts after the tech noir bar scene- let the audience wonder a little more too! Did the guy just have a bullet proof vest on? Could Kyle actually be crazy? I think a lot of the psychological horror here is traded for some very cool tech shots of the future, time travel and arnold vision early - probably a worthy trade. But it would be awesome to see a cut that holds its cards even closer to the chest and let’s more of that tension build.
