The Abyss (1989) Special Edition Full Movie Reaction

I'm no expert on such things, but I think extreme pressure is what makes the stars shine, and beyond that creates neutron stars and even black holes.

Els

interesting. i always been fascinated by the pressure into the deep.. i mean what place could have the most pressure? the deepest? or probably pressure stabilizes at a certain level and can't go beyond... this could be explained on how much pressure is beyond that.. i mean deep down in the rock.. how lava melts and burst out.. things can go deeper... but i don't believe that the pressure can have unlimited value due to limited physics in this world

hahahaha trueee! once i visited a friend here nearby... and he had few puppies.. one of them collapsed in front of us.. we were confused.. but when i closely checked his face.. a very tiny tip of a straw could be seen inside of his nostrils... i grabbed and pulled it out.. the dog miraculously got back! i was shocked! i said ''what if i didn't do anything?'' sadly the dog died few days later.. probably the same cause....

"We should be dead. We didn't decompress." When you breathe air at high pressure, nitrogen dissolves in the blood. How much depends on how high the pressure and how long you are there. If you decrease the pressure too quickly, the nitrogen forms bubbles in the bloodstream like opening a can of soda. This condition (the "bends") is painful and can kill you. The most common situation where this might happen is a diver who spends a long time deep under water and then comes to the surface too quickly. Divers who stay in deep water for longer than just a few minutes are careful to come back up very slowly to allow the gas to escape the body gradually.

One thing I have learned from watching movies: CPR never works until you shout NOOOOO! and start wildy pounding the person's chest 😁

Els

okay good to know! ^_^

will vote for this ^_^

Yup, that whole scene of them controlling the ocean and showing Bud how destructive humans are were cut out.

Eddy

If you can react to the extended version of Terminator 2 it would be good. It’s a few more minutes but there’s a few scenes added that show some vulnerabilities to the terminator.

Eddy

oh yeah without a doubt the longer version of T2 is better..fills out the story alot better.

Dave Meehan

hahahahaha! no horror for me ^_^ just pure darkness hahaha

hahahaha! very true! well going deep is a psychological process that eats you slowly.. for me jumping scenes are the most annoying.. i mean even if a random person will scary u in the middle of the night will be scary... how much more a ghost? uuuuu i don't want to find out

i bet we wouldn't know that those Aliens almost killed everybody! good thing that we reacted to the extended version

oh i see... freaking hell we wouldn't know that those Aliens almost wiped out humanity then haha! do you think Terminator 2 longer version is better or ?

Joy's heart during the whole movie: "Son of Abyss!"

Ellie Miller

For a movie that's mostly set in deep, dark undersea water, Joy did a very good job staying calm, especially during the flooding and drowning scenes. Much better than Marian when there are ghosts or evil spirits :-D Just kidding, love all your reactions.

Mr Jordan

You were asking what was extended in this version versus the Theatrical Version? The additional 30 minutes were spread throughout the whole movie but the majority of additional footage was the ending.

Eddy

another james cameron classic.....the drowning scene was so well done and the water tentacle was one of the fist cgi images ever put to film. there a fantastic documentary on the making of the abyss and the stories about what happened while filming are unreal...the crew and cast called it "the abuse" because it was so hard to make... to answer your question about what's the difference between the 2 versions...in the normal cut the entire segment of the tidal waves was cut out and bud talking to the aliens was also cut down...so was lindsey's speech about the candles in the dark....the R.O.V'S surveying the damage to deepcore showing the dead bodies....this version you seen is the proper version....like all james cameron movies he always has a special edition so don't forget when you are gonna react to terminator 2...there's a longer version of that aswell
