The "Anything Goes" thread

They should have ended at T2. I'm a huge fan of Terminator, after T2 the movies just got crap. And yeah, Bale is awesome as batman, not so much John Connor.

My issue with the Terminator movies is they fall apart when viewed through the eyes of scientists, physicists, and those of us that manufacture time travel devices.

How could the terminator exist? We know from the second movie, the technology developed by CyberDyne came to be because they found a damaged chip and part of an arm. So in order to build the terminator, we needed terminator components which could not exist without terminators which could not exist without terminator parts that could not exist without terminators.

Kinda like effects preceding causes, or something like that.

And how could Connor exist without that one dude coming around and knocking up JC's mom? Effects preceding causes.

And in the last iteration, why would John Connor announce his location via radio, where terminators could triangulate his position? Seems rather illogical to me.

No sir . . . terminator is flawed and I'll have nothing to do with it and I refuse to discuss it.

Thank god he didn't do it. Can't quite imagine him in the role.

Sent from my one and only original iPad using iPF

Also, the actor who played Kyle Reese was originally supposed to be the Terminator because T was meant to be an average Joe who could blend in a crowd and kill Sarah easily but they changed their mind when they seen how terrifying Arnie was

Hey Scottish Warlord . . . Don't make me get a fifth job, make an appointment to have a photo taken for a passport, get a passport, save my money, buy a ticket on a tramp steamer to Scotland, track you down and kick you under your sissyfied kilt.

Smiley.

Are you even Scottish? And are you really a warlord or just a saber rattling pretender? We Vikings eat wanna-be warlords for breakfast. We prefer them because we hate Haggis. We do like your single-malt.

Smiley.

Birth records say I am part Viking. Many Vikings setteled Utah, so yes, indeed we do come from Utah. In fact, in 1835, we fought the Mormons over water rights here in the Western Desert areas. It was in all the papers. Yes, it was messy, but it had to be done.

Of course. Arch enemy of the Vikings, the bloody Mormons.
