Tiggum posted:Since we know only the barest details of the future timeline (I haven't seen Salvation and anyway it wasn't out yet at the time), the John Henry storyline really had a lot of potential to make that a hell of a lot more interesting. I really like the bit with Jesse in a future flashback where they were on the secret mission to go contact this mysterious third player who decides not to help, and how maybe Shirley Manson was there to change that by making John Henry side with the humans instead of staying neutral. I'm pretty sure that Shirley Manson and others like her was the mysterious third party. She sends a single word 'no' in the future to the proposal of alliance, but then in one of the final episodes she delivers a 'yes' to Cameron in the present. I think John Henry was an attempt to change the inevitability of Judgement Day by creating a different Skynet that empathised and had morals and ethics instead of being a heartless killer.

I'm sure that if it had had a reasonable chance at concluding then TSCC would have averted the war. I felt like they were going for the point that avoiding progress was inevitable, which is why trying to avert AI kept failing. The only real chance was to raise it with compassion. Cameron and John Henry.
