    For anyone wondering, that’s Sarah Connors dream from Terminator 2 right before the city gets nuked.

        For anybody not old enough to have seen that movie, go see Terminator, and then Terminator 2, and then stop.

          I also recommend the Netflix anime, Terminator Zero. It’s made by Production IG, the people behind Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and SkyDance, and does a great job of being its own thing while being respectful of the first two movies.

        To give you an idea of my age, I’m still young enough to get drafted to the US military. I watched T2 when I was a teen, like about 10 years ago, give or take. That movie is one of my favorites. It doesn’t feel that old from my PoV.

        T2 is 34 years old, I remember reading about it in a paper magazine, when James Cameron said that the molten T1000 should say “Get out” to the helicopter pilot and how the CGI artists were stumped on how to make it happen.

        There’s something like 2-5 minutes of CGI in T2 and that was unheard of back in 1991.

          The actress who played Sarah Conner had a twin in real life, and they use her as a double in some scenes.

          Notably one (that I think was cut) has her operating on Arnold’s head, and you can see her doing it in the mirror. What they actually did was make a super detailed replica of his head and used her twin sister to mirror her movements. There are videos and stuff out there about it, it’s pretty fucking cool.

              Exactly, there’s always a premium on vans. Pickups are also nice, but you really have to secure the kids really well, they get exposed to the elements, etc. A nice pickup bed cover would be a decent middle ground.
