Quote by: Praxius The thing I didn't like about it is how it just didn't really explain any connection to the previous two movies.... just "You can not change your fate" or whatever, therefore it was going to happen one way or another.
Could have been done a little better imo.... but was still a good movie... just the lower end of the three thus far. |
You know, that stuff was irritating but it wasn't as god awful as the entire Katherine Brewster plot. It was like "Drrr... let's add in an important plot point not referenced once by people who should know about her and act as if its completely reasonable."
Nick Stahl didn't even have to act wimpy. They already piss on John Connor's mythos by the fact that he's somehow inexplicably killed by a model 101 because it looked like the terminator from T2 when they should have encountered numerous looking Aghh-nold models by the time they send the first one back in time.

Quote by: ZNF Yeah, Praxius and Cephus have it right.
The whole point was about controlling fate.
And then T3 screwed it.
They tried to weasel out of it by saying that Kyle Reese fathering John Connor would have been a paradox if the war never happened, but they fell on their faces.
It would have been better to not do T3, do the Sarah Connor show anyway to show the time after T2, and do the new trilogy to show what led UP TO the T1 movie. |
You see, I didn't really see them pissing on the "Future is not set" concept since I took John Connor's paradoxical birth to indicate that we were dealing with a multi-verse and not a single time-line. Ala, the timelines are similar but not exactly the same, so you send someone back in time and by changing things slightly you have inadvertently created a new timeline by changing events. You don't actually change things in a preset future. However, the future of the new timeline is changed. Though it could already have different factors changing it in the first place. Such as leaving a robotic skeletal arm in a factory for instance. These things would and should have consequences. Nevermind all the people that saw the T-1000 not including any cameras etc in the mill, the mall, and the cyberdyne building.
