AI-Enhanced on February 8, 2025. It looks sharper, but the wavy, prismatic lines won’t go away. They are due to recording this show over something else I recorded at the time (way back in 1984). I was using a Sony portable VCR. 40 years ago…
I noticed someone had extracted the Terminator portion of the review from the show and placed it on YouTube. So, I decided to see if I could work some magic!
Gene was completely out of touch in his Terminator review. Kyle Reese and The Terminator being from another planet? Did he even watch the movie? Because it was made perfectly clear that these characters were from the future. And Gene was completely ignorant when he said the film wasn’t well made, because this film shows that James Cameron was really evolving as a filmmaker and storyteller. Total snobbery.
So Siskel gave both Predator and Terminator thumbs down?
