Terminator 2: Judgment Day Imagery

Terminator 2: Judgment Day Imagery

Hell

The introductory scene is an image of peacefully moving cars along the street and children joyfully swinging, which is harshly contrasted to the image of the Hell - rusted cars with dead people inside. The contrast of two images is also conveyed by a day and night effect. The war of people and machines is depicted here: flashes of fire are seen on the horizon. The future reigned over by machines and robots is shown - a future in which there is no place for people.

The Robots

Robots in the film are depicted as high-tech figures. T-1000 is a perfect version of robot production: it is made of metal which is capable of acquiring any form. T-1000 is an image of the ideal machine for killing – a death figure.
