I think part of the reason why Total Recall and all those 80s/90s movies are pure legend... Is actually the Music. The Music was awesome and at times, it was as if the music was playing in the background, while the actors delivered their lines - they fit so perfectly together. Modern movies just have some throwaway, same old same old, music that seems added as an afterthought to the movie.

In that time, a movie could be especially interesting because of groundbraking new effects. Today, basically anything is possible. Whatever you may not be able to shoot, just produce it in CGI. I am not saying it's a simple task to do perfectly convincing photorealistic 3D, but with the right artists, it is possible, and so anything can be done. The last time we saw groundbraking technology was in Avatar in 2008. Since then, movies get overflown with CGI, often where practical effects would have been more interesting.

Arnirs biggest talent was choosing directors who knew how to make a good film with him.
So many reasons to love this movie but for me the sound track perfects it!
+Nicky Lyons I love the "Mutants Dancing". But the main theme opening is too Conan-ish... :)
ok
1980-1990 an amazing decade for movies....and soundtracks. Feel privileged to have grown up and watched these movies when they were released.
Paul Verhoeven is an undisputed science fiction genius.
Which is exactly why Showgirls should have had robots in it
indeed....his 'starship troopers' is brilliant too
James Cameron
16:50 Dog pops a squat mid take. Priceless... :D
When you gotta go, you gotta go. lol
@@Beslan_Myths_And_Facts Whenever I see this in making of documentaries I can never unsee it. 😳 😜
This is the only movie that when finished watchin I can watch it right from the beginning again. The films a masterpiece, has SO MANY memorable moment with such a great story especially for its time and I think its one of the best films ever made.
The best Sci-fi/Action Movie in the 90's. This is a real Classic already and it still out number alot of todays sci-fi/action Movies. When it comes to Movies and Music Nothing beats the great 80's and the 90's. This Era was the Golden Era from Hollywood in my Eyes.
So much better than the remake too. Movies these days are missing the psychological effect and storylines, it's all about special effects.
'Action packed' today means Michael Bay explosion films. Back then 'action packed' meant a good riveting story with some special effects to assist it.
You also need to add that Science Fiction movies now mean Lens Flare Abrams.
DarkLordDiablos I fucking HATE his Star Trek films.
So f true!
Totally agree with you, movies are just not good nowadays !
@@TheHelado36 To quote someone else, movies are made dumber so it can be marketed to different cultures. A good well written complex story to English westerners won't sell to China, just like their movies seem weird to us. Movies = dumber/broader audience.
ok Im late but I grew up on these movies. there will never be movies like this again.
As a 13 year old, I went to the theater with four friends to see this. The live audience was roaring during this movie. It was wild.
This was one of my fav movies of my childhood. The 1990s, best years to grow up as a kid.
“Ha ha ha ha, you think this is the real Quaid...it is!”
Goddamn i miss practical fx - Rob Bottin is the man!!
Total Recall, The Thing , Howling etc
Yeah man me too
Couldn't agree more with you
i love paul verhoeven...he's full of life and likes to pursue his dreams...his films are awesome...i wish we had more "adult" themed films today. the violence in this and Robocop are top notch...they shock but have context...
I agree with you but these movies need publicity. Studios and theaters always are afraid of movies with R ratings because they are afraid kids will not go see them. They need publicity from people. Best examples for me is Deadpool.
Goldsmith should have won an oscar for this score...
Dances with Wolves came out the same year ,maybe if TR came out some other year
Thanks to Arnold for buying the rights to this, to this day still one of my fav movies of all time.
Hard to believe that this movie we take so much for granted these days, was so close to never being made at all.
Indeed at the time it was one of the most expensive films ever made. So glad it didn't bomb.
Though the studio did go bankrupt with Cut Throat Island a few years later .
Makes you wonder how many amazing movies are out there that didn't get made for one reason or another. So many projects that could have been great, but fell through because of lack of budget, or getting shot down by a studio executive, or they couldn't find a director to agree to make it... Ah, if only we could reach into alternate worlds and grab a copy of their classic books, films, music and video games.
One of my top faves of all time.
No remakes are necessary for this masterpiece.
Well, even in my dreams, The remake is only an illusion.
One of the best soundtracks, ever.
I make sure to watch this movie at least once every two weeks.
Get your ass to mars. Get your ass to mars. Get your ass to mars. Get your ass to mars.
You need to stop you're killing me both your comment on your picture
This was my go to movie back in the day
“Consider this as a divorce”
Hahahahahaha
Only a talented guy like Verhoeven could make this work
+apologyisnothepolicy fukin a.... robocop.... total recall... starship troopers... A GENIUS!
basic instinct!
He and Arnold are a match made in movie heaven
"GIVE THESE PEOPLE AIRRRRRRRR!"
Classic movie! Way ahead of its time. Even better than the remake!
Well that's not really a compliment is it. Of course it's better than the fucking remake. You dont 'remake' a Paul verhoven film.
The 2012 version is not a remake anyway it doesn’t matter the first total recall is the best
Why remake good movies? Choose movies that didn't quite make it, which no one knows about, and make it 10x better.
SEE YOU AT THE PARTY RICHTER!
I always enjoy Michael Ironside, I enjoyed his voice as darkseid in Superman the animated series. still the best method actor. Makes me feel if I’m an actor and work with this guy, I have to understand that when he is in his method actor mode, I better be careful not to mess with him or question his methods
OK, see you there! :P
With no arms
the dome will crack!! RIP Michael Champion great character actor
And bring you're own f**king beer
Total Recall, Terminator 2 and True Lies are the holy trinity in Arnold"s Movies in my opinion. i still have my copy of total recall on VHS and i watchet it so many times as T2, excelent plot, amazing visual effects and outstanding soundtrack, is a masterpiece movie, no doubt.
The soundtrack was amazing.
Total recall and the fifth element, it doesn't get much better than those two movies for sci-fi action flicks
Most important line in the movie: "That's a new one...'Blue Sky On Mars'".
holy fuck, Sharon was gorgeous back then
One of the most loved movie of my childhood. Btw the remake is a perfect example what is wrong with todays movies, especially hollywood production.
I love how this movie keeps you guessing. Just when you think you have it figured out, it send your mind another direction. Truely one of the greatest sci-fi action flicks of all time. That;s it, I am watching it tonight!
Spielberg and Verhoeven were the directors of my childhood!
8:00 I love Arnold's impression of Paul.
Absolute masterpiece! Jerry: the theme is not only there - I just cannot forget it after all those years!
"HAHAHAHAHA....you think this is the real Quaid?"...it is!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Rob Botin! What a genius!! This film is beautiful!! See you at the party!!
I remember the first time I noticed this movie in Fangoria. They had images of that eye popping scene, and Benny's mutated arm. I was like "this is the only movie I need to watch".
Said the same thing when I saw the T2 issue on Fangoria, bought it in a heartbeat!
For me it was the short scene I saw on tv of the fat lady tripping and then the head expanding showing it was Arnold. Took me years before I finally found the movie
The music is very good.
One of my favorite movies, now that I think about it after watching this great making of video that I've never seen before. What an awesome movie and THE MUSIC!
16:50 lol the dog takes an xray shit. haha!
Lmao dog was totally gonna shit.
Yes, Verhoeven even planned to put this scene to the movie, but finally, it was cut off because could attract more attention than needed
That opening with those spectacular credits and jerry goldsmith music...so good it's become a classic. Great story, lines, arnold in his prime, verhoeven in his prime, sharon stone one of the hottest chicks ever seen on screen, if not the hottest...to this day people still talk about the final. I'll never get rid of the DVD
🥰Such a great movie! Action, drama, romance wrapped up in science fiction… The greatest genre because it allows all others to join in! Thanks to Paul Verhoeven, Sharon Stone, Rachel Ticotin, Ronnie Cox, Michael Ironside and of course, Arnold Schwarzenegger!😘👍👍 🤩👍👍 😎👍👍 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Music in this classic always induces nostalgic goosebumps of the highest order.
Love to see the uncut version of the movie
I remember several years ago I had the 1990 total recall promo t-shirt ,I wish I can have it again and make homage to this epic movie
YOU BLEW MY COVERRRRRR!!! 🤣
It was a perfect meeting of director, screenplay, cast and era. The mid 80s to early 90s have that lovely 'modern aged' look to them
CONSIDER DAT A DEEVORCE
Oh that accent, it kills me.
It was more like a divowerce
Original Total Recall IS the best! Violent and great! Great made even this day!
Way better than the cold, dead and flat new version. The new Total Recall: awesome special effects and photography, no soul, no personality, couldn't even finish watching it, fell asleep 2 quarters into it.
Soundtrack is a masterpiece, really is.
this movie predicted über future
This is one of the most cherished movies from my childhood.
How did I not know that Robert Bottin did these effects? *pops in The Thing*
*"You went to Rekall?? Hauser, don't fuck wit your brain-it ain't worth it!"*
One of my all time favourite films! So glad it got made how it did and with Arnold as the lead
I loved this movie the first time I saw it and love it even more today. Like a good wine, it gets better with age.
One of the perfect movies ever made
Good Movie, One you can watch over and over, and still see something new.
The short segment with Jerry Goldsmith discussing the score starts at 20:57. Really a phenomenal effort and one of the all-time great action scores.
What a great score for this fantastic movie , thanks Jerry Goldmith
i miss that way of making movies... good script, hard working crew, good music... i miss all that
great sci-fi movie. movies of today are just not as memorable as they were back then, I'm just glad I was just a little kid when these types of movies came out
I'm so happy my father let me go watch this movie, in Switzerland it was forbidden to under 12 years old, I was 11 but very tall so they let me in even though I was alone. One of my favourite movies ever, top twenty for sure!
Didn't need a remake.
*WHAT* remake? ;)
TOTAL FREAKING RECALL!!
What you talking about?
@@Lee-radford Total Recall was remade a few years ago. Completely different movie but based on same movie, it's a retelling/remake w/o arnold.
Remake should've had a different name and it would've done just fine. Kind of like how I feel of the sequel to "The Shining".
one of the best flicks ever made.Give these people air.
"one of the criticisms was there was no theme" No theme my ASS. The second he said that, I was already humming the opening title score, which was a wonderful theme. And of course the more mysterious Martian theme, which was a bit more subdued, but it was definitely there and instantly recognizable.
This was Arnolds best work as an actor. He managed to bring vulnerability to his character despite still being a behemouth. And Verhoven was at the top of his game here. Just a fantastic movie overall.
What a classic masterpiece!
Jerry Goldsmith master score.
HAHA yes the dog dropping heat at 16:53!! classic!!
I love it, when you really can call it making of. Not just 5 Minutes of the movie and 2min on set footage.
The opening music has a Conan The Barbarian feel to it. Love it!
I don know about others but whenever I think about Total recall it flashes Mars scenes along with the amazing music in my mind...Such is the impact of this movie on me.....Kudos to the creators for creating this master piece 👍👍👍
30 years ago. Just...holy f*ck.
God i loved growing up with this movie, still scary as hell and awesome to ponder
I watched this when it came out, amazing movie and special effects! I still have the VCR tape.
Fantastic movie, great actors, no need for a remake.
Ron's impression of Dino is so chaotic and Italian! Can't stop laughing!
See you at the party Richter!
I'm even amazed that my mom let my siblings and me watch this movie and we were still in grade school lol.
That was such a great movie. Arnold at his best. "Benny da fuck did-I-dooooooo?!
17:20 That level of sarcasm is amazing.
For many years after watching this, randomly me & my bro would just start saying; 'toooo weaks, toooh weeeeeks' with twisted faces. When a hotel receptionist asked how long would we'd be staying, my answer just had to be.
It was just a dream. It has every element of the Secret Agent package he chose.
It's definitely comedy gold.😂
I cant be the only one who got nightmares from the scenes of there eyes popping out as a kid
17:05 holy SHIT! Motion Capture in the 1980s!? I had no idea they ever conceived such a thing so long ago!!!
it's not 80s it's already 90s.
Well the film came out in 1990 but they were shooting it in the 80s, technically. But who cares. Still looks amazing!
YES IT IS THE FIRSt CGI motion capture ON MOVIE
Pedro Poma actually CGI's been on films since the early 70s.
One of my all time favorites and one of my favorite scores as well.
Kuato Lives!
Perfection!! Thank you for sharing! This is a classic movie! One of my first ever... Just LOVE it!!! Thank you!!
In that time, a movie could be especially interesting because of groundbraking new effects. Today, basically anything is possible. Whatever you may not be able to shoot, just produce it in CGI. I am not saying it's a simple task to do perfectly convincing photorealistic 3D, but with the right artists, it is possible, and so anything can be done. The last time we saw groundbraking technology was in Avatar in 2008. Since then, movies get overflown with CGI, often where practical effects would have been more interesting.
