Binge Movie Aftertaste – Terminators 1 & 2 Retrospective
Here we are again people. One year removed from its very polarizing 5th installment, I decided to go ahead and take a look at the multi career launching Terminator film series, once again going through the films and rating them one by one. But of course I couldn’t do it by myself. And with Jason either too drunk to join or deciding to sit this one out, I had to go out and grab someone to talk Arnold speak with me. Which, as you can imagine, is not an easy task.
Enter my old Adventure Amigos riding partner Matthew Goudreau. You’ll recall that last year, he joined me on the Aftertaste for an interview of film director Katt Shea. Now, I hope he realizes what he has gotten into as he begins the journey of watching the Terminator movies and rating them with me. He agreed, as long as I didn’t do the ol’ ‘hole in the popcorn’ trick, which Jason fell for time and time again. This week, we start with what is known in Terminator circles as ‘the James Cameron era.’ To some, these are two of the best films ever made. But will they be to us?
Join us as we talk about everything from Cameron’s role in starting the cinematic strong female action hero movement to just how much these two films made Arnold’s career. I also get a little too complimentary toward Edward Furlong.
