Terminator Genisys: 10 Iconic Moments It Must Revisit
6. Mimetic Poly-Alloy Ahoy
When Sarah Connor crashes a truck through the front of the department store and flips expectations by being the one to utter the familiar words, come with me if you want to live, it looks like she helps Reese escape the long arm of the law. A good thing too, because said-long arm of the law can, if its owner so desires, be elongated to a sharp metal point, chopped off by the other arm and used as a spear. Which is the first taste of at least one of the threats Kyle and Sarah will face (Matt Smith, who has been pushed as featuring prominently in the film, is conspicuous by his absence). Byung-hun Lee is on bad guy duties here, and he bears more than a passing resemblance to a familiar foe, even suffering a bullet to the eye. Yep, thats definitely mimetic polly-alloy on display right there, even if this time it isnt Robert Patrick playing cop. Whether or not this is a T-1000 or a slightly updated model remains to be seen, but the liquid metal pools that quickly shrink to nothing will make a welcome return. The special effects used to render the T-1000 in Terminator 2 earned an Academy Award, and the groundbreaking CGI used to depict Robert Patricks wounds healing in a matter of seconds created some of the films most memorable visual moments.
I watch movies and I watch sport. I also watch movies about sport, and if there were a sport about movies I'd watch that too. The internet was the closest thing I could find.
