Rev-9's chopper eventually crash-lands and interrupts a poor family trying to enjoy a BBQ in their garden.

The cyborg emerges from the wreckage and dryly apologises to them for destroying their shed, and if you listen carefully, you might recognise the song in the background.

The tune is "Guitars, Cadillacs," by Dwight Yoakam, the very same song which played during T2's iconic opening bar sequence where the T-800 acquires his clothes, boots and motorcycle.

Surprisingly, Guns N' Roses "You Could Be Mine" was nowhere to be heard in the film, though one suspects Axl Rose's asking price might've been a little too hefty.
