  1. 1989. A pocket PC before pocket PCs were cool. 💼💾

    Atari Portfolio. Intel 80C88 CPU. 128KB RAM. Monochrome LCD (no backlight). Full QWERTY keyboard. 3 AA batteries.

    It was tiny. It was slow. It was IBM-compatible.

    And in Terminator 2, John Connor used one to hack an ATM.

    The original palmtop. Decades ahead of its time.

  2. Robert Patrick during the making of Terminator 2 sitting in the laser scanning chair at ILM.

    I noticed he is wearing a NIИ T-Shirt, the back says YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE.

  4. One year ago today I posted this miniature Terminator 2 scene I created.

    All shot practically using real lighting, figures, miniature sets, debris, smoke and cotton wool for the fire and explosions.

  8. How The Terminator changed Arnold Schwarzenegger’s career forever.
    The 1984 sci-fi classic didn’t just create an iconic character, it reshaped how Hollywood viewed Schwarzenegger as a leading man and opened the door to everything that followed, from blockbuster action films to comedies like Twins and Kindergarten Cop.

    The Lord of the Rings to Terminator 2: 10 of the most terrifying moments in film

    2 days ago, By BBC Features team

    As people around the world mark Halloween, our editors pick the frightening scenes that have truly stayed with them.

    The diner sequence in Mulholland Drive (2001)

    David Lynch’s film was named the best film of the 21st Century in a BBC critics’ poll. It’s also one of the scariest films of the 21st Century, largely because of a five-minute scene that shouldn’t be scary at all. The deceptively simple sequence consists of nothing more than two friends in a Los Angeles diner talking about a dream one of them had, and then walking outside into the broad daylight – and yet, thanks to Lynch’s mastery of pacing and atmosphere, it’s almost unbearable. The classic jump scare is a factor, of course, but it’s the dread that builds beforehand that really chills the blood, as the protagonist realises that he is trapped in his own worst nightmare. And, like anyone in a nightmare, he has no control over what happens next… (Nicholas Barber)

    Sadako goes in for the kill in Ringu (1998)

    Scarier than many more bombastic horrors, Ringu is a quiet but deeply uneasy film. Set in 1990s Japan, it tells the tale of Sadako, a girl murdered for her supernatural powers, whose vengeful spirit is trapped inside a cursed videotape. The climax comes when a lead character, Ryuji, is killed by the curse. He is alone when the tape spontaneously begins to play on his television, showing Sadako crawling towards the front of the screen. You can’t help but recoil. Jaws-esque music builds and she jerks unnaturally forwards. Her iconic long black hair covers all but one manic eye – which is looking directly at you. Then she climbs right out of the TV. The ghost pierces the fourth wall and breaks into the real world. At least, that’s what it feels like. Ringu was revolutionary in its depiction of viral media and its dangers – and promises to haunt those who watch it forever. (Katherine Latham)

    Bilbo goes feral in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) 

    There are plenty of scary moments in Peter Jackson’s thrilling Lord of the Rings trilogy, but Shelob, Orcs and Ringwraiths aside, there’s one blink-and-you’ll-miss-it scary moment to rule them all. In the series’ first instalment, an injured Frodo (Elijah Wood) is reunited in a cosy Rivendell setting with Bilbo Baggins (played by the twinkly Ian Holm), who briefly loses his senses in the presence of the Ring. Using a mixture of animatronics, makeup and digital effects, Jackson (who had a background in horror) transforms Holm’s face momentarily into a grotesque vision of greed and desire. Acting as a chilling harbinger of doomy events to come, it’s the unexpected nature of this genuine jump scare that made it so terrifying – to this day, I still have to watch it through my fingers.

  13. What is the term for actors such as #JenettGoldstein, who had non-headlining roles in several classic movies? Is there a term?

    Goldstein was in #Aliens2, #Terminator2, (#Terminator2JudgementDay), and #TitanicFilm, among others.

    #AdultESOL class finished today, so watching Aliens 2 with the dogs while pretending to prep a midterm for #K12 reading class this week.
