AVP 1 was actually okay in a funny dumb way but AVP2 ehhhhh.

Skynet would have defeated humanity if they had never built the time machine because John Connor would never have been born. Then again, skynet would not have existed in the first place because Dyson would not have had access to the future tech he used to design it. Basically, the terminator universe is one in which everything is preordained and fate is absolute.

I don't get why it has to be John Connor anyway. The first movie set him up as this ridiculously awesome military leader who was instrumental in humanity's survival, and then after T3, he's just this guy who happened to get to a safe spot in time to not get blown up, and then in the last one, he's not even the military leader, he's like a lieutenant or something. We never get to see what makes him really special, so much so that Skynet will send back robot after robot specifically to kill him.

If Skynet succeeded in either The Terminator or T2, we're lead to believe all hope is lost. But why wouldn't someone else in the resistance rise to the occasion and become the "new" John Connor?

It seemed like if Sarah Conner Chronicles had gotten a third season, that's exactly what it would have been about. The Human resistance without John Conner.

Kyle teaches Sarah about the coming war with the machines and how to fight them and Sarah teaches John. Another reason skynet would have won if it hadn't bothered with time travel.

I am just re-reading the post T-2 books that came out maybe 14-15 years ago and drat that would have been a great movie follow up. John and Sarah hide out in South America and happen to bump into the real guy who the Arnie terminator is based on. He is a retired counter terrorist operative and is kinda like Arnie in Predator. Skynet sends a human/terminator hybrid that builds a squad of t-101s and plays the long game by making sure Skynet gets built. The really cool thing is that the plot is set around 8 years after T-2 so the ages all kinda match up with the actors ages. It's basically a post T-2 fan fic and nothing to do with T-3. First one is called "infiltrator" written by S. Stirling. It's not great, but its worth a look if you are a fan. I think The Sarah Connor Chronicles was kind of based on it a bit. But as cheesy as the books and the tv show are, this new re-boot sounds like loving garbage. It's all about tone and that's the thing the later movies didn't get. Even the tv show had some great dark moments with it's characters. This film will probably try too hard to be gritty and serious and add in loads of filters and references and completely miss the point.

theres 2 ways of doing time travel
-the back to the future way where there is 1 timeline and the universe itself changes aspects of itself to maintain continuity (ie martys family photo losing members, him physically disappearing) which is why a complete paradox that cannot be resolved in any way threatens the existence of the universes continued existence
-the terminator way where you create a new timeline branch every time something is sent back but also following from all the consecutive earliest time travels down the branching path
so if someone was sent back to 1950 and in that new timeline someone was sent back to 1960 and in that timeline someone was sent back to 1955 then the person sent back to 1955 would exist in the normal -> 1950 -> 1955 timeline which would not interact moving forward or be reachable anymore from the timeline that sent something back to 1960 because that timeline has been overwritten from the perspective of the traveller to 1955
it is not clear if these earlier timelines continue to exist at all when they send something back and create a new branch which would have the effect that any branch at all would be able to overwrite/make unreachable/irrelevant all other branches by going back to an earlier date than any other time traveller

this is evident from how the terminator series addresses the concept of paradox but also briefly directly and explicitly addressed in the sarah connor chronicles in an event where a time traveller goes back to meet someone who had also gone back but due to how branching works this other time traveller was not the same one they went back to see which works out without paradox in the terminator-style time travel

skynet sends a terminator back because it was about to lose
the assassin & protector getting sent back event is potentially cyclical and we dont know how many 1 or more times it may have occurred but there is a definite beginning and an end if in any iteration skynet is defeated before developing time travel or succeeds in time travel soon enough that the terminator sent back isnt immediately followed in the same field connecting the timelines as a protector
in the original timeline skynet or a skynet equivalent develops naturally and a terminator and protector are sent back in time to assassinate key resistance members
in the most recent iterations portrayed in the series of films the most recent timeline has john connor as the key member that leads the resistance to victory over the machines culminating in the final siege on the facility with the time displacement equipment

the only thing going back in time changed was the specifics of how skynet emerges who the key resistance members are and how prepared they are
skynet advancement is accelerated by recovery of t-800 parts but the same timeline changes also result in the human savior figure being more prepared
