How do you rank the various enemy Terminators?
>>217167162It's T-1000>Rev-9>T-X-T-3000>Asian T-1000 for me. Speaking about the sequels strictly.
Why didn't SkyNet send out an observer Terminator to gather information why the assassinations failed and then have it hibernate until apocalypse and read the info from it?
Why didn't skynet sent 1000 terminators?
>>217167277Well the original reasoning was the Skynet sent the two Terminators back as a last ditch effort right before being shut down. It would have no way of knowing it failed.Though Aliens vs Predator vs The Terminator did have the idea that Skynet also developed long-lasting Terminators that would embed themselves into whatever society rose after its defeat and resurrect a more powerful version of Skynet, which is an interesting idea.
why didnt skynet create a terminator disguised as like, a dog or something.
>>217167414why didnt the terminators just turn into an eagle and fly to mordor
>>217167414Dogs are less effective.
>>217167688not if your mission is to hunt down a white woman
>>217167709Sarah was a scaly though.
Why is it that we can have threads about Reese crusty hobo pants and they do well, but we want to talk about the hot leather and bondage Terminator and the thread slides off the board.The AI slop tranny Zelda thread is doing better! What is wrong with this board?
Would you fags prefer underpants gridman T-1000?
>>217167162>Conveniently designed to be ergonomically friendly for your enemy to rideWhat were the machines thinking? Why even shape it like a motorcycle at all?
>>217169163Motocycles are extremely manoeuvrable which would make them very useful as scouts or pursuits vehicles, plus the smaller size lets you fit them easily onto other larger things like a HK or the Harvester. That said I don't think the actual design seen in the film would be very comfortable to ride.But while we're on the topic, Terminators still have readable HUDs which would make no sense for the individual Terminator. While in reality it's just for the audience, in-universe you could explain it as being a holdover from when Skynet was answerable to humans and just never bothered to change the programming, because after all it's a machine, it might be intelligent but not dynamic in its thinking.
>>217169043bots and indians, i supposei liked T3 tho
without the girlboss plot armor of the survivors in dark fate, REV 9 would've been canonically the most powerful with its cloning, shapesifting and T1000's liquidifying into a weapon powers. pretty sure its the most overpowered onein my humble opinion it's also the coolest and most futuristic, proper cyberpunk
>>217169657I just wish they hadn't hollowed out the head. It completely ruins the design for me.
>>217169476It still shouldn't have a seat, handles and a usb port.
>>217167162The T-3000 would've been great if it had been played by someone with greater screen presence than Jason Clarke.
>>217169792Also it's time to stop with the carbon fibre look.
>>217169792it kinda makes sense if you wanna save weight and production materials, it could be reference to late stage skynet when it has started optimizing the production more than before
>>217169815It doesn't though.
>>2171698631:23 https://youtu.be/2MyLHNucyBM
>>217169908That's an ethernet port, and when you're dealing with computers, at some point you're going to need to attach a port to something. So really it might as well be a USB because whether it's that or a Data Spike from Robocop or super fancy quantum port, the scene needs Connor to plug into the machine. Besides he has to slice open a panel just to gain access, it's not like there are just ports hanging out the side.
>>217169792>>217169657I was gonna nominate him as the worst one because NOBODY jobbed as hard as himOut of the sum total of every Terminator movie, no antagonist ever got his fucking ass kicked and consistently failed to harm or endanger the protagonists as much as he did, absolutely nothing is done to sell him as a threat. He exists onscreen to get his ass kicked by Linda Hamilton, then get his ass kicked by the Dylan Roof chick, then get his ass kicked by Schwarzenegger, then die.He never gets a moment like the steel pole fight in T2 or the bathroom fight in T3 to show off how formidable he is.
>>217169971Machines wouldnt give it an ethernet port unless they have humans doing maintenance on their robots. Anyway its just shitty writing.
>>217170004>his action figure
>>217167162>made solely to appeal to asian markets>5 mins of screentime and dies - bait and switchmany such cases with movies from the 2010s
>>217169862>late stage skynetExcept this one isn't designed by Skynet it's "Legion" and man am I sick of that fucking name being referenced in everything.The Rev-7s with the digitigrade legs were cool, but honestly this is too OP. The T-1000, the T-X, hell even the T-3000 all kind of get passes because they were one off experimental models or specifically created individuals. If Legion had an entire army of these things running around humanity would have been wiped out in a couple months.
>>217169043whenever you see a spate of similar threads about a movie/show that isn't trending you can be assured it's either an autist spammer's new special interest or a bunch of lonely faggots who watch girls reacting
>>217170019How do you think the robots are meant to connect to each other? Of all the bad writing decisions in Salvation, this isn't one of them.
>>217170110>If Legion had an entire army of these things running around humanity would have been wiped out in a couple months.Remember that for some reason the Resistance in this timeline has an army of cyborg supersoldiers as strong as Terminators, and also a bunch of massive spaceships and hovercraft and shit
>>217170069Altered Carbon did the same thing. Asian protag that disappears 10 minutes in
>>217170148Wirless. Or have proprietary connections deep inside the "skeleton" under layers of metal, definitely not on the outside where it can easily be accessed by their enemies with a common cable kek
>>217170110wasn't legion the thing that came after skynet fell? >If Legion had an entire army of these things running around humanity would have been wiped out in a couple months.isn't it implied that these are semi-mass produced. which makes it extra retarded how severely they nerfed it in dark fate.i seriously hope next terminator movie can actually deliver with its robo combat>design the most overpowered and coolest bot in terminator history>nerf it so movie can have girlboss moments and arnie doesn't have to work that hardlol
>>217170004I think the Rev-9 gets extra points because it has to take on effectively two Terminators and an over-powered Linda Hamilton. But really that is the biggest problem with the whole franchise at this point, everything needs to be bigger and more power because they want to keep using Arnie as the good guy and need a more powerful enemy for him to fight. That's one of the things I liked about Salvation is it managed to have the final boss of the movie be a T-800 again and it was still terrifying. Only issue was the whole "Terminators just throw people" thing.I also love this shot where the molten melt is covering the T-800 like a cloak. It's like taking Cameron's original concept of the Terminator being like "Death rendered in steel" one step further.
>>217167162Why didnt any of the Terminators take on a gaseous form? Like spray themselves onto their target and use their individual nanites to eat their targets flesh, essentially just like acid. Or make the nanites radioactive or cancerous etc. out of all the creative body horror possibilities they just end up tossing them around.
>>217170254>Or have proprietary connections deep inside the "skeleton" under layers of metalAll connections are proprietary. A USB port is a legally licenses brand of connector, but that's irrelevant because whatever the type of connection, the resistance would just make hacking devices with that connector port spliced on. Also, again, the port isn't on the outside, it's under a flush metal panel that Connor has to pry off with a knife. Moto Terminators are just basic scouts. Remember this is still very early in the war, Skynet is using unrefined machines to brute force everything. They're still using ballistic weapons at this point as well.
>>217170295>wasn't legion the thing that came after skynet fell?Nah, in Dark Fate the idea is that Judgement Day never came to pass, so the whole future timeline with Cyberdyne and Skynet doesn't exist. Instead in the future something else creates Legion which is just Skynet under a less creative name. Totally different branch of reality.
>>217170411McG pls go
>>217170311>everything needs to be bigger and more power because they want to keep using Arnie as the good guy and need a more powerful enemy for him to fight. That's one of the things I liked about Salvation is it managed to have the final boss of the movie be a T-800 again and it was still terrifyingThey could do this because the "heavy" was Marcus who was apparently some rinkydink experimental cyborg that sucked dick compared to a "real" TerminatorThe show was good for this too, the laws of physics apparently applied because Glaubot was a conventionally designed Terminator, so she was an order of magnitude stronger than a human but got fucking bodied every time she fought another Terminator that had the same abilities as her but was proportionally larger
>>217170449It's Force AwakensficationLike how the Empire is gone so now they fight First Order stormtroopers and First Order star destroyers and First Order TIE fighters
I just want a blue tinted future war movie with the T2/T1 aesthetic. I don't care about time travel fights and alternate realities anymore.
>>217169476Every Terminator in that movie was nonsensical slop
>>217170539is that from Command & Conquer?
>>217170317>Why didnt any of the Terminators take on a gaseous form?That's kind of what the T-3000 is. Skynet infected John with essentially a virus that took over every cell in his body and turned him into a cloud that can become solid.
>>217170449this actually triggers my 'tism, the general idea in terminator media is that they're trying to stop the judgement day which is inevitable and its all basically just postponing it even if they succeed at the end of the filmif judgement day and thus skynet never came true in dark fate then what the fuck is arnie bot doing there? he shouldn't exist. or did we just invent new way of doing timelines?
>>217170457Don't get pissy just because you misinterpreted what you saw on screen and then locked yourself into a specific argument.
>>217170602The Schwarzenegger bot in Dark Fate was sent back to 1995 from a timeline that doesn't exist anymore
>>217170609>We need to get John Connor from point A to point B>But how do we do that at this point of the movie>Lets give him a terminator motorcycle to ride on>Brilliant!
>>217170539>stealth building sized Terminator that can sneak up on you without make any soundWho writes this shit?
>>217170482>Glaubot was a conventionally designed TerminatorT-888, which had customisable chassis. But seriously TSCC was so fucking good. Also I like Garrett Dillahunt as an actor, but the original Cromartie actor just looked so much more imposing.
>>217170633how do you continue to exists if you wipe out your creator? HOWEVER the fact that Legion exists doesn't mean that Skynet wont still happen in that timeline and create T 800
>>217170802>how do you continue to exists if you wipe out your creator?Because he already got sent back in time before Skynet got destroyed, duh> the fact that Legion exists doesn't mean that Skynet wont still happen in that timeline and create T 800Skynet is gone and Legion creates Rev series Terminators, not T series Terminators
Why didn’t anyone try and stop the T-XXX by giving her an anal orgasm? That’s what I would have done.
How come nobody ever rates the Terminator anime from last year
>>217170839She visibly cooms when she tastes John's blood and that just makes her deadlier retardYou didn't watched the movie
>>217170602>judgement day which is inevitableIt seriously bothers me that this is the position that most writers take with Terminator, which kind of pisses on the original two films. But that's a separate issue.As for the Arnie bot, once you take a figure and bring it into the past, it becomes part of that original timeline, it become anchored and held together by the reality surrounding it. So you can sever the original future that it is from, but it won't affect it, because from the figure's temporal position, that future has not happened to it. It basically becomes a time refugee. Theoretically at least.
>>217167162>The T-1000000 is a large, advanced hunter-killer unit made of mimetic poly-alloy. This unit resembles a giant, fluid metal spider. Although the T-1000000 cannot mimic objects other than walls and support beams through tactile contact, it can generate stabbing and slashing weapons that extend from each of its eight appendages. Like the T-1000, the T-1000000 can be temporarily frozen by liquid nitrogen.What were they thinking?
>>217170958>>217170602Multiple timeline timetravel method have always been stupid. Youre just changing a new timeline that has nothing to do with your one anymore. >Sends kyle reese back in time>Sir weve finally done it! Were about to change everything!>Oh yeah but not for us. Kyle has gone to save a new timeline that we just created.>Wait so that doesnt actually help us now?>No, infact weve lost Kyle and countless men and resources just to get us here just to send him back. Infact we will literally never benefit from it >...
>>217171153>What were they thinking?"We need something insane and memorable for the end of the ride"
>>217171300Yeah, the other way to look at it is that the whole timeline is a spiralling loop where every time they go back they reset into a new loop with subtle changes (like the idea that the original timeline Kyle never went back and John isn't related to him), but the thing is they have no way of knowing that is the case, so they have to keep sending Kyles back.
>>217171452Its the same thing. The timeline never loops though. Each timeline would be a separate branch.
>>217169163>>217169476T-1000 > T-800 > Mototerminator > the rest are shit.
>>217170843I don't really remember shit about it other than Japan getting their own anime waifu Skynet to protect them from nukes and shit
>>217167162No ranking required. Only the first two movies are good, skip the rest as they're mostly fucking garbage.
>>217170947
>>217171300>>217171452Really though the best outcome is they send Kyle back and while they might improve or worsen another timeline, at least they know that their future is now secure. So in one timeline Judgement Day never happens and everyone lives free of that, and the original timeline at least gets to rebuild and have a future without fighting.
>>217171818We're not ranking the movies, we're ranking the bad Terminators.
>>217171928My mistake, I'm retarded and didn't read.
>>217170843I only just started watching it because I'd heard it was shit. I've watched the first episode so far and I'm hoping it gets better. The T-800 somehow being incapable of hitting the chick with a fucking minigun immediately put me on the bad foot.
>>217167409That sounds like a much better idea for the sequels than the shit we got instead, and it wouldn't need retconning the good ending of T2.
Does mimetic polyallow expanding count as fake tiddies?
>>217172103Forgot my very important pic.
>>217171905>Nothing happened. Michael Jackson turned forty. Also I’m a Klingon now.
>>217171955Terminators are unfortunately comically fucking useless in the anime
>>217172123Arnold Schwarzenegger’s DVD commentary for this was really something. Like it was the most amazing thing he’d ever seen. Convinced women would love to get it done. Sometimes have small breasts. Sometimes have big breasts. Sometimes have one of each simultaneously.
>>217171905They aged Linda Hamilton pretty well in that alternate ending. I guess it's easier to age someone forward than in reverse.
Why didn't skynet just send a nuke back?
>>217171905>So in one timeline Judgement Day never happens and everyone lives free of that, and the original timeline at least gets to rebuild and have a future without fighting.Literal cuck mindset lmao
>>217172198Couldnt find any bacon to wrap the nuke in
>>217172156>Convinced women would love to get it done.He's right though, women would absolutely love to be able to constantly shift their breast size. Hell I wish I could switch my dick between more than two sizes.
>>217169163There's zero ammo storage on this thing lmao
>>217172230You could. I used to work at a hospital where they did penile prosthesis surgeries quite regularly. Basically they put a pump in your ballsack and install walls to line the shaft. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRoLFf9wRj0
>>217171300>>217171452>>217171567It cracks me up that fucking Dragonball of all things had a perfectly rational and consistent theory of time travel>character travels back in time to before the apocalypse>gives warnings to the people living there, helps them avert it>gets back in time machine and returns to his own time>it's still a bloodsoaked ruin because he didn't alter his own timeline at all, he just helped save people living in an adjacent very similar one from sharing his world's fate>he knew this was how it would work, but he's now able to use what he learned from the other timeline to understand why and how his world was destroyed, meaning that the catastrophe in his world isn't undone but now humanity can recover with its enemy killed
>>217172226>That's why we always come with our friend Jock Doniels. In space, nobody can hear you f**k.
>>217172284Don't pick on Moto Terminator. He's trying his best!
>>217172345Though him going back in time does alter the events of that alternate timeline, and also has the bonus of giving him forewarning of Cell's arrival in his own timeline.
>>217172478>alter the events of that alternate timelineFor clarification's sake I mean causing Android 19 and 20 (Gero) to appear.
>>217170958>>217171452I like the idea that each time-travel creates a completely different timeline, not only because it allows for creative freedom to tell stories in the Terminator saga, but also because it's funny what that implies: Skynet and humans are fighting to the death and wasting valuable resources trying to travel through time and alter their present, but it's all in vain, because the timeline they belong to isn't altered in the slightest; a new one is simply created, one they aren't part of, but rather alternate versions of themselves.I imagine Skynet sending hundreds of Terminator units to different time periods to kill John Connor, and wondering why the fuck nothing works and John Connor is still alive along with the Resistance.
>>217172600didn't the TV show hint at this, though not elaborate on it much, by having Derek realize that the chink girl from the future literally wasn't his gf, she had an entire distinct life that was similar but not identical to the one he remembered with her
>>217172600>>217172666Kind of a scary thought experiment in its own right, that the moment you time travel you will never meet anyone you knew againI always thought Back to the Future's ending was unintentionally bleak, that Marty essentially murdered his real parents that he grew up with and would never see them again
>>217172600Another anon once came up with the idea that the whole thing is a series of flip flops where different incarnations keeps switching between targeting Sarah, John, and Marcus. Which is interesting.I do think that constantly trying to make sequels that focus on alternate timelines set post-T2 is the problem. Easily the best part of Genisys was before they travel into the future. I was really keen to see the T-1000 fucking around in an alternate verson of T1's 1984, but then they fucked it by travelling into the future. They should take reference from Back To The Future where all the films are basically variations on the same moments repeating themselves over and over. Like having a T-800 protect Sarah from a T-1000 in '84, or have someone come back to protect a normal person Sarah and (non-Reese offspring) John Connor from a T-800 in 1995. Shit like that. Sure it might be slightly repetitive, but no more than the endless variations on T2 we get now and without the bullshit escalation probably.
>>217167162>S-tier: T-1000both in terms of abilities and the performance>A-tier: T-800the classic>F-tier: the T3 fembotsure this bitch was OP but the effects were lame and lacked all the gravity that made the earlier terminators have so much aura
>>217172745>Marty essentially murdered his real parents that he grew up with and would never see them againYeah, it's kinda fucked up. He'd be a total stranger. Honestly thank fuck for Doc suddenly coming to grab him at the end of the first film, because between parts 2 and 3 it postpones the total existential breakdown Marty would inevitably go through.
>>217171300this is exactly why brainlets shouldn't touch timetravel
>>217170482No fuckin way the chair gave her cover!
>>217173185The show baited dorks into saying that because the next scene is the cops investigating the apartment, digging a kevlar vest out that had been sewn into the chair and asking what kind of nutjob would do that to their furnitureI'm not kidding
>>217173221>what kind of nutjob would do that to their furnitureThe show did a perfect job of showing how pathological Sarah was in her prepping, and occasionally how much that played into her fear. Like the episode where Sarah goes to the sleep clinic and when John mentions that they have files on her she desperately asks him to delete them. It's played not just as Sarah covering her tracks but the same way someone would freak out about something traumatic.
>>217167162The terminator that wins is the best, the t800.2ftw
>>217167266>leave t-1000 to me
>>217170802How would you feel if you didnt eat breakfast this morning?
>>217170958When arnie bot goes back in time the past becomes his present and we both share the same future from that point on. Anything that happened in arnies future past will happen differently in the past future he now resides in. It was explained very well in dr super hulk man
>>217171941And didnt give a ranking to any
>>217171905Wtf is up with that frisbees physics?
>>217167409One of the first comics I ever bought. Still better plot than all the new A/P/T movies.
>>217167409>hebraic power fantasyWho wrote that comic?
>>217173670Fishing line frisbee will be all the rage a little under two years from now. Better start practising.
>>217167162>How do you rank the various enemy Terminators?They instantly peaked with the T-1000 and it was all downhill from there. They simply couldn't figure out how to make another antagonist Terminator that was as powerful and threatening.
>>217173858Mark Shultz, who also wrote the AVP Annual (which Dark Horse only ever did once) story Chained to Life and Death, which is one of my all time favourite AVP stories.
>>217173970On that note I have a special affection for the very first Terminator because there is something unique, that even T2 loses, that he isn't "evil" at all because he very truly isn't anything at allThink about the opposite of Kyle Reese's rant. He's not angry at her. He doesn't hate her. He doesn't have a hardon for her. He's going to kill her. He has exactly as much of a grudge about it as the cruise missile does toward the arab wedding it blows up.Even T2 begins to lose that with the dog stabbing and the "uh uh uh" finger, a slasher movie is just a slasher movie but one where the villain genuinely had no sadistic intent at all was so jarring in its own way, a sick kind of innocence
>>217173924Is that what it is? I dont even know what i thought lmfao
>>217172129>>217172160Honestly I'd love for them to refilm the ending given that next year is when the Coda ending is supposed to be set, so Hamilton would be the right age for real. Just roto out John and put him in the new footage, because out of all the very 90s "whoa the future" fashion, John and the girl playing his daughter are wearing fairly normal looking outfits.
>>217174062>shultzThought so. Why is everything jewish and israeli coded? Did they invent comics or something? They're in everything
>>217174165I'm sure they meant for it to look like some kind of hover disc toy (which given how popular drones are with people now is fairly prescient) but really it's just a Frisbee painted silver and they're using fishing line wrapped around the dude's wrist to make it look like it's floating. You can see the line catch the light in a few frames when he throws it to the chick and she throws it back.
>>217170004>the Dylan Roof chickkek
>>217174192>Did they invent comics or something?Kinda yeah. But also try not to get too distracted by your They Live sunglasses, the same kind of behaviour works for commie spies, or anyone being subversive. Tunnel vision is a dangerous trap for the noticer.
>>217174275>they invented comics>dont focus on jews too muchToo late for that, 25 years too kate for myself personally lol. I will have to check if they actually did invent comic books. I was of the understanding White men and women invented everything in our societies
>>217173543>>217170822Causality (physics)Novikov self-consistency principleWorld linethe way time travel has been established in terminator universe is the self consistency way. basically meaning there are infinite universes (actions create ripples in space, time travel allows you to travel between them which btw means you can clone people infinitely. future people could send people few minutes in past, creating another universe, then have those same people go back to the future. now you have cloned those peopleits crazy that out of the infinite universes only the one connor mattersincluding time travel in your film is not something a brainlet should do
>>217174612So, like, how would you feel if you didn't eat breakfast?
>>217174485Pictographic storytelling which comics stem from is ancient before there even were races, so asking if they invented comics is the same as asking if they invented language. But two Jewish guys did invent Superman, which was the defining superhero character that all other superheroes are descended from in some way, same with Batman being created by a Jew who then got screwed over for credit by another Jew, Stan Lee was Jewish and basically made Marvel. Superheroes are the most prevalent and defining form of comic book in the US and most of the world, so it's not hard to say Jews invented the comic book. That said if you want to be literal the first published American comic book was created by a Swiss, and the biggest competitor to US comics in general is Manga and the Japanese are about as opposite to Jews as you can get.
>>217169043Do you think skynet designed her with inflatable tits on purpose, or does it use a gel or oil to fill them in, or is it a property of her liquid metal sheathe?
>>217174725Phew, thanks anon. I was getting worried then. I will hees your advice from now on.
>>217174753Realistically she'd just fill the cavity with air. Kind of like how the T-1000 mimicked the fat security guard. They can't create mass, just volume.In real life and inflatable bra was used for the scene, so art and life line up.

>>217169792
>>217175163Maybe you just like twinks.
>>217175197This is EXACTLY what pops into my head looking at the Rev-9.

>>217174612>the way time travel has been established in terminator universe is the self consistency way. basically meaning there are infinite universes (actions create ripples in space, time travel allows you to travel between themWrong. Terminator 1 has a single timeline. Every sequel after that is time travel slop and not canon.
>>217176214>Terminator 1 has a single timelineTerminator 1 was AT BEST the second timeline. That's obvious.
>>217176364>Terminator 1 was AT BEST the second timeline. That's obvious.
>>217176487The original timeline had John not knowing about Judgement Day.
>>217176656Theres no original timeline. Youre watching the same one. I bet you think Interstellar had more than one timeline too kek
>>217176721I think you're a retard.
>>217176852Knew it lmao
>>217176721Time isn't linear in Interstellar.
>>217176656In the original timeline, Kyle Reese is not John Connor's dad.Which explains why the John Connor we know is kind of a little bitch.
>>217173476Why can't we get tales of terminators sent back to ancient history?
>>217176959In the timeline, Kyle Reese is John Connors father.
>>217177027Nah, the John Connor in T2 is too much of a pussy. I can't believe a person like that becomes the saviour of humanity. Only way it makes sense is John Connor accidentally overwrote his original father, who could have been any one night stand Sarah had.
>>2171767211st timeline - Judgement Day happens at some point in the early 21st century. John Connor learns to fight Terminators in the work camp, eventually leads humanity to victory. Skynet uses time travel, Kyle Reese goes back2nd Timeline - Reese goes back to save Sarah, falls in love, fathers John, John learns about Skynet. Terminator tech going back gets picked up by Cyberdyne and accelerates Judgement Day to 1997. John knows who Reese is, gives him the photo sends him back.3rd Timeline - T1>T2This is blatantly obvious to anyone with half a brain.
>>217177804>filtered
>>217167162Summer Glau was best terminator
>>217177946You're describing a bootstrap paradox, but we know that Terminator doesn't operate on that because the timeline isn't stable. It's iterative.
>>217178041Yes, im talking about the first Terminator movie.
>>217171300Lol the Terminator anime that came out recently literally has a resistance member in the future point this out and she's told to shut the fuck up.
terminator 1 = terminator 2 > shit > the restspecial mention for the live action show they had at whatever theme park for a while because you could heckle the cast
>>217172431>I'm gonna be a T-800 when I grow up. Don't worry Skynet, I can make it on my own!
>>217178041T1 works on "Paradox Rules" where all actions are pre-ordained/already happened and thus Arnold is sent back because he was already sent back and so on. Skynet is simply unaware that its attempt to kill John Connor already failed years before it was built.T2 disregards this and operates on "Shifting Timeline Rules" where once something is sent back, the future can be replaced with a different one. Here time traveling objects/persons are in essence stranded in the past because their origin point no longer exists. People are willing to overlook the retcon because the movie itself was so good and because the new rules were consistent within the film.All subsequent Terminator films operate under "Hybrid Rules" where writers awkwardly try to smash together both sets of rules despite them being incompatible. This leads to nonsensical things like Judgement Day being simultaneously changeable yet immutable in a way only possible if there was a literal God ordaining things happening like a Greek Myth. People are not willing to forgive this retcon like they were T2's because they are not only inconsistent within the films individually, but also because these films are all shit.
>>217178245Really? Thats kinda based? I thought the anime was serious though
>>217170843>Terminator dodging all those attacksImmediate tell that the misunderstanding is on a conceptual level
>>217172153I'm on the second episode and I fucking loathe the children.
>>217172416what happened to this channel
>>217178441it only "dodged" attacks to counter-attack more efficiently. not defending the absolute dabomination that is dogshit netflix "anime" of course
>>217178472I also hate the way the voice actor for Malcom pronounces just Kokoro with a Japanese accent.
>>217178503>efficiencyIt's SUPPOSED to be about looking cool while no selling all the bullets and stabs and explosions damn it!
>>217178514it doesn't matter how strong the robot is, a bullet to the headcase or a smack to the back of the head will still impede itthe attacks the terminators just tank are just unavoidable or irrelevant
>>217170482Why is the firefly girl fighting bruce campbell
>>217178546https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtjHBEl8wcc>the attacks the terminators just tank are just unavoidable or irrelevant...which is the entire point of why they look intimidating?
>>217178586>not terminator 1 or 2so not canon
>>217178586>>217178514>>217178503>>217178441She's not a terminatorThis becomes apparent when she fights a terminatorIt seems heavily implied that she's not much more bulletproof than a humanThe real terminator has an appropriate level of respect for her Sailor Moon nonsense
>>217178699well that's a bit better. I rest my case then
Justaerin > Atramentar > Deathshroud
>>217178699did you notice that's just a barely "dialed-up" remake of >>217170482?
>>217178810Except Glaubot never goes "oof ugoi kyaah baka" or literally gets heemed because they weren't stupid enough to program her to feel painThat's the silliest thing about Misaki, she's 0% human, she isn't a retooled human like Marcus or Grace but she still gets big ouchies when she gets hurt
>>217178868you could've just said "no."the only reason glaubot doesn't react is because glau can't act.
>>217170019>Machines wouldnt give it an ethernet portwould they give a serial port? you have to connect to it somehow retard. physical port access would probably be the most secure because the machine can just crush the port.wireless would be beyond stupid.
>>217170839>That’s what I would have done.I would have listened.also her fappening leaks were nice.
>>217178911>the only reason glaubot doesn't react is because glau can't act.don't talk about my wife that waythat used to be a death penalty offense around these parts
>>217178993fuck off glaufag
>>217178699When does the nanny actually become useful? Because I'm on the fourth episode and she's but stammer and space out. Also does the series actually get good at any point?
>>217179005>Also does the series actually get good at any point?It's an anime so no
>>217167277The real question is, why didn't they make Terminator 3 about the Future War? Terminator 3 should have been John Connor fighting skynet in the future. All the battles, everything and movie ends with him sending Reese back in time. Would have been a perfect trilogy https://youtu.be/P7nq-r7QWW0?si=nXylClJyusNfQy6z
>>217179069Why has there never been anything as visually interesting as those first three minutes of Terminator 2, including in anything else James Cameron's ever done?
>>217169476>While in reality it's just for the audienceI feel like you're arguing with yourself. It doesn't really have a HUD and you know that.
>>217179281The T-800s, 850s and T-X do.
>>217179585Forgot the pic.
>>217179021>It's an anime so noWhat is with this sudden hatred of anime that /tv/ has developed?
>>217179598>While in reality it's just for the audience
>>217179631There are a lot of new plants camping out here from other websites and they only want to see topics they can capitalize on
>>217179631hollywood has either shat all over or completely subverted every threat to it that has ever existed
>>217169476>>217169971>>217170148Based retard
>>217167162why didn't skynet go with the whole seduction angle with john when he was still a teen when he was still skeptical about the whole killer robots thing? if the t1000 took on the form of some hot teen and seduced him and his buddy into going into some closet they'd be both dead pretty quickly
>>217180643didn't he have prime lena headey throwing off huge amounts of sexual tension while also cockblocking him from fucking his robo-waifu?and isn't it arguable that was the entire point of the robo-waifu?
>>217172284Every scifi mech/tank whatever has this problem, designed by retards
>>217179069Well at least you kinda got that in videogame form, though it's just some random fuck dealing with future war shit until the final assault on Skynet happens.
>>217180643Skynet is just pretty autistic about terminating him. Otherwise it'd just send some generic looking fucker back in time to just shank him instead of making a spectacle out of it every single fucking time.
>>217181259i just openly belly laughed when whatever terminator movie acted like i was supposed to be afraid of a mexican manlet no matter what his superpowers werewhich is probably a pretty effective termination strategy.
>>217181304that is exactly why the cartels are so effectivealso why their murder/torture videos always start when the victim is already mostly dead. its the only time they stop laughing
>>217169043>What is wrong with this board?Because we're not a bunch of beta eunuch virgins that put pussy on a pedestal like you. Bitch.Go back to redddddit if all you want to do is fawn over bitches.
>>217169043that guy spams his own threads. no one can tell because they removed the unique ip counter.
T-1000 > T-800
