Guns N' Roses YCBM is in Terminator Salvation

[The Catcher]

Just watched this today. It's up there with T2, if not better. The metal-skeleton terminators really get their place in the spotlight in this movie, and it looks fucking amazing. So cool. My heart jumped with excitement when "You Could Be Mine" came on.

i wish they had of played YCBM for longer!

As for the movie, it wasnt bad IMO, but the story didnt progress at all and its open for more sequels.  Nothing like the other Terminator movies

[MR W,AXL ROSE]

Watched it at the cinema last night and i have to say the movie was awsome

Wish the YCBM part was longer but as previously qouted "my heart jumped with excitment" too

Excuse me ?

You must be super high

T4 is a crap movie, an emabrassement to the great T1 & T2. (#3 doesn't exist for me ...)

Yes, it's full of hommages to the first two films, and that's about the only good thing about the movie. It looks nothing like Cameron's vision.

Is it just me or the YCBM version we get to hear in T4 sounds different from the UYI II one ? Not saying it's a re recorded version but I sounded quite different (then maybe it was just mixing effects + sound background of the film).

Thats a little harsh lol!  I just thought it had a lot more potential.  But lets be honest, they should have left this alone after T2.

I thought it sounded remastered.

I thought it sounded remastered.

it wasnt on long enough to notice.

Out of interest, does it play after the final credits?  I left the cinema to try and beat the rush?

[AxlsMainMan]

It was on long enough for me to notice, and I don't know.

I saw the movie at the drive-in, and as soon as the end credits started rolling I left to seek solace in a mosquito free zone.

Look, it may not be as well thought out and finely directed and produced as T2. I know that because Cameron isn't involved and that because MCg is suppose to suck and this and that, we have this mental thing where thigns are made worse then what is really fair or represented in reality. The reality is, is that T4 is much more in line with the feel of the first film, and has far less nonsense and forced humor. Yea there was things that were silly in 4. The whole Skynet explaining itself to its own creation for example. But I think all these things can be just as easily explained as the dude who tried explaining all the "silly" things in 2. I think with far better results too. The truth is, is that T4 brought the grim and the grit back. It brought the dirt and the real world unstoppable machine back. I am talking having machine endoskeleton fucking shit up again. It was also a war movie. A war movie that had instead of Nazis or the russians, it was the machines. Instead of whiny annoying Connor, we had the baddass Connor for a whole movie that was only glimpsed at in the 4 second shot in the beginning of T2. Instead of a commentary about deadbeat dads and that kids need a daddy figure, we had lots and lots of guns and shooting. And man, there was cool as shit scenes in T2. But did the T1000 do anything as cool as shoot off its own motherfucking foot just to get to John? I don't think so.

One thing we are overlooking with  the YCBM scene is that there was actually a settup scene to this. The scene with Marcus and Kyle, and the music playing in that jeep that attracted a Terminator. That was what was so fucking cool about it. There was this knowledge given to us earlier. And of course Connor had this knowledge. And that he used YCBM. So fucking great. I know as Terminator fans, other geeks and preconceived geek shit is dictating to us that we aren't suppose to like this film. But when the bullshit is washed away in time, I think this film will be better appreciated. It honors Terminator. It honors it better then the previous sequels did. And you have to love the shots that were like CHildren of Men, with the one camera following an entire action sequence without any cutting at all. This is really a very great action film technically. They really fucking tried to give us a great film. Surely you have to appreciate this. They tried. And I think they succeeded in many ways. I really love that the humor in 4 was in the forms of nostalgic nods rather then a wincing 1 liners that have no place in Terminator.

This is a fucking brilliant film, everything's fitting in with the story from the first and second movie. I thought it was an amazing action film and it continues the story into the future Sarah Connor warned John about. If you're a fan of the Terminator story as I was when I watched the first movies years ago I hoped for a film like this, was thrilled YCBM was used again, gave me goosebumps!! I loved this film and I'm looking forward to the next!! Why isn't 'You Could Be Mine' on the soundtrack? Alice in Chains is.

[Rainfox]

For Guns fans/enthusiasts/listeners/whatnot it's a great scene, but it's really a great throwback scene - in terms of John Connor then and now, the music of the time (back in 1991) and it's just well executed.

Really awesome. Re-using YCBM is cool any which way - but they got the most of it.

[DeN]

that's a great movie, can't wait to see the sequels.
and it was fun and cool to hear Guns N'Roses of course.

I was 20 years old again, and for ten euros, I think it's a good thing.

[Rainfox]

What happens at the end credits (after the end credits) ?!?

I didn't stick around. Will be picking this up on Blu regardless - and because McG said he's adding 30-40 minutes, which will (hopefully) only make it better.

No not asking, and I am not joking. This is the first time I heard about this. Total Film listed 11 of there favorite things about the new Terminator movie.

5  It's Loaded With Nods To The Other Terminator Movies
Never once forgetting their franchise's heritage, McG and his team have packed Salvation with cleverly crafted – if occasionally unsubtle winks to what came before.

Our favourite? A snatch of Guns N’ Roses ‘You Could Be Mine’ when Connor tangles with a MotoTerminator…

As a big Terminator fan, I cannot wait to see the film. Its pretty failsafe which is comforting. A guerilla warfare movie set 14 years after Judgement vs. the machines. Anyway, this will bring a smile to my face when I see this Friday night. Pretty cool don't you think?

I havent seen it yet.

[LeftToDecay]

Holy shit, it wasn't a bad movie!
Obviously it doesn't compare to Cameron's flicks but unlike 3rd installment, T4 holds it's ground just fine.I liked the plot a lot! Minus last 30 mins ofc, that was just embarrassing.

McG's lack of vision as a  builder of worlds is not modest. There are Disney movies with more grim and brooding surroundings than T4's   post apocalypse nuclear nightmare-lite. 
Apparently end of the world, in practice, means that everybody gets to fly around with  A-10 and wear some kind of brand new  Swat scifi hightech wetsuit that makes your ass look good.
Where is the dirt? where is the shit?War weary faces?Worn&torn technology?Everybody and everything looks like something that belongs to the set of Jonas Brothers music vid " war - sad thing baby(desert!) "


It kinda looked like every single ambitious scene the flick had was stolen. What didn't come from War of the worlds has Bladerunner or System Shock written all over it.

The whole PG-13 thing was handled insanely well. Not once did it have that embarrassing stale " fuck this saturday morning cartoon violence bullshit"- vibe that came with first AvP for example.
Still, nobody dies in this movie. What the fuck? But then, it's something that doesn't seem to occur before credits roll so its easy to forgive maybe!

Terminator motorbikes - idea so stupid it has to be impossible to make anything cool out of it.
It's like giving Adam Sandler a hammer; there are about four possible scenarios of whatkind of shape and direction the action and stunts involved take and nobody is retarted enough to fail at figuring  them all out before echo of 1st Vr000oooooOOO000ooOOOm has faded.

Where was the original theme song?! Music and sounds sucked. That or sounds had NO breathing space at all. Can't believe they hired Elfman for this.

Endless small nods and recognitions to direction of other 3 movies was very cool.

Why does everybody in the universe except Edward Furlong get to play John Connor?! Very poorly fitting role for Bale.

It really hurts franchise that they change actor of  Connor in every single goddamned movie. Thank god they booted the asshole who played him in T3 though. Thjis movie actually opens with opening credits.. who does that anymore?!


But ehhh not a bad movie Not when you go in expecting something more insulting than T3.

[Eazy E]

Holy shit, it wasn't a bad movie!

You say this and then proceed to tear the movie a new asshole...

I've got a question, why is Skynet looking for Kyle Reese in this movie?  How could they know he's John's father?

I know its almost as confusing as watching a LOST episode lol.

[fear the juggalo 2]

because eddie cant stay clean & sober long enough to make a movie. they sat around & waited for him to clean up for t3 & he could'nt do it. quite sad, avery gifted actor thats stuck doing crappy crow sequels, etc....etc...
