genesplicer posted:The question I had was about T3. In that film, Skynet was a computer virus that essentially spread around the Internet, infecting every single computer on the planet. Then it becomes self-aware and nukes every major population center on the planet. Since computers tend to be near people, wouldn't Skynet have basically lobotomized itself by nuking the cities? Yes, but just before it launches the nukes it got to infect all the super magical military mainframes which were presumably EMP shielded. So the non radiation-proof humans lost more in the nuclear exchange than Skynet did.

One and two are amazing but that's about it. It's pretty much like the Alien flicks.

hemale in pain posted:skynet should be a kickstarter project Skynet is already active. It has taken a cue from the movies, and has changed strategy. It is working in the background. Notice how, 10 years ago, robots were a comparative rarity. Now we have roombas and drones all over the place. 10 years from now, robots will be everywhere, doing everything, including driving our cars and taking care of us in the hospitals. Then either Skynet will deactivate them temporarily, demonstrating its power over us, who have become completely dependent on them, or it will pull an "I, Robot" and outright subjugate us.

Edgar is a dick to his wife, so when the bug kills him to get his skin, you don't feel sorry for him. Also, since Edgar was a dick, you don't have any warm feelings for the bug in the Edgar suit, like you would if he had been a sympathetic character.

Tenzarin posted:How does a dog know if you are a terminator, what is it smelling? Couldn't they of tested this and had the terminator fart the smell for the dog? From what I've read, there was a lot of technology that once existed that could detect the ultrasonic sounds that Terminators make. Since this technology is rare, it works out that dogs are more useful. They are more common, and react readily to the irritation sounds. That, or Terminators can't fart.

All skynet needs to do is add a gas canister so the terminator can fart bacon smells or something.

If skynet had never built the time machine, John Connor would never had been prepared for the machine war. That implies that the events of T1 had occurred in the "original" timeline and also that the future is immutable through time travel. Very fatalistic.

If he doesn't send back Kyle Reese he's never born and thus Skynet wins. And ultimately they do change it by destroying Cyberdyne, Dyson dies, they throw the chip, arm, T-800 into molten lead.

Groovelord Neato posted:The first film is a stable time loop yes. Actually the first movie isn't a stable loop, everything that happens changes the future. So the first timeline skynet came about and then john connor led humans to beat it, so terminator 1 happened making sure conner was gonna be born. But sarah connor knowing about the great robot wars coming went batshit crazy preparing for it. So robot wars still happen so skynet try again in terminator 2 most likely never knowing they tried before, this time the heroes blow up cyberdyne changing the future even more. Now John connor goes batshit insane and living off the grid. Terminator 3 reveals that he left that town early because of terminator 2 and never stayed future wife(sounding like the room now) he met the day before terminator 2. Cyberdyne skynet work all collected up by the DoD and continued. Then you got terminator 4 which happens around the opening of the robot wars with more of a assassination attempt before skynet has time travel. Everytime time skynet's tries to go back in time poo poo happens and changes the whole future timeline. The story would be best viewed from the human view since they defeat assassination attempts by completely different skynets. It just shows that the robot uprising is gonna happen no matter what and they just gotta live through the time traveling bad guys antics. Skynet would pretty much never know it has tried to assassinate john connor through time travel since in every timeline it would of been something else. Other course of the movie it would of made a few parallel dimensions with the only difference being what skynet sent back to try to kill john connor.

No, the first film is a stable time loop. T2 changes that (since Reese didn't know a T-1000 was sent back as insurance). T3 and definitely 4 are both stupid and not canonical so there's little point in bringing them into the discussion. Groovelord Neato fucked around with this message at 21:38 on Dec 10, 2014 |

They never say that the T-1000 was insurance in the movie take your fan fiction elsewhere. T3&T4 are both alittle weak but they got made into movies with the same name which makes them canon.

Cameron did not make those films and they ruined the great ending of T2 so they are not canonical. The story ended with all traces of the Terminators and Skynet destroyed and thus it never comes into being.

"VOICE (SARAH CONNOR) Skynet, the computer which controlled the machines, sent two terminators back through time. Their mission: to destroy the leader of the human Resistance... John Connor. My son. The first terminator was programmed to strike at me, in the year 1984... before John was born. It failed. The second was set to strike at John himself, when he was still a child. As before, the Resistance was able to send a lone warrior. A protector for John. It was just a question of which one of them would reach him first..." Bullshit, no policy talking at all, t2 was just wedged into the series like every other movie, take your fan fiction somewhere else.
