Terminator is a perfect example of the modern issues with capitalism

@@terror8467 Cronyism is the problem. Capitalism is the best system we have. Going to communism solves nothing.

@@phantasmo9998 Sure it does, if the problem is "How do we create mountains of emaciated corpses"

Made me lol

@@terror8467 no its not.

They have Rick and Morty on payroll, hahaha

So why not figure out when the machines created time travel, go back before they do and destroy it. Game over. Yes Judgment day happens and all that but the war is over. Humanity's goal wasn't to stop Judgment Day, it was to stop the machines.

Yeah, they didn’t even cover the terminator cross overs into the mortal kombat and robocop universes.

🤣🤣🤣

I'd just focus on the first one personally

Time for Rick and Morty to fix the timelines hahahaha

Now that would actually be a kick-ass plot line given how much that makes sense. I mean you’re right. You can’t have a movie with time travel and not expect it to go awry. After all, the future is not set. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves.

@@judaegekikamen4223 but Rick doesn’t do time travel. He mentioned that when he made the Futurama device.

@@sid2112 no need for an apology. I thought it was passable.

After Dark Fate, I doubt there will be any future Terminator films. Which is a shame because I'd like to see more of what goes on in the Legion timeline.

Until the franchise reboots. Because the real monster was corporate greed and militarism.

I can confirm this, as an anime lover. 100% true.

Yeah Skynet would have a much easier time dealing with humanity if they were a VTuber.

Oh, no. It would've been introduced to a far worse side of humanity. Simps.

They did

I did post one recommendation of that, that'd surprise me if it was me

I did.

I recommended it specifically as a high command so I’m claiming it

@@j.tastic9132 thanks alot then

Excuse me, kind sir. May I kindly point out that you accidentally missed one "ba"?

Oh I just remembered robot Krab with that sound.

DUH DUN DUN, DAH DUNN... DUH DUN DUN, DAH DUNN... DUH DUN DUN, DAH DUNN...😂

With all the time lines it messed with I be suprised if it found it.

No, no. Skynet knows about Templin. In fact, Skynet knows enough to know better. In the few timelines Skynet does attack, it loses. Every time... Every. Single. Time.

@@Deridus My theory is that the Templin Institute is the Wanderers Library from SCP.

Can Skynet enter a pocket reality? It makes sense that Treyzn or the Inquisition could because of Warp-fuckery, but I doubt that they understood what they were dealing with.

Wish I could of sat in on such a class

A much more accurate tag line than the one at the end of the video.

Lucky

I recently sold a laser disc version I had on eBay! I got the disc from a Japanese businessman who lived in a penthouse; this was 1993--I was one of the maintenance crew at a luxury condo on Park Ave in NYC back then. He found out that I was an anime/keiju film fan and we started talking whenever he was in the US. He finally moved out and he gave 20 laser disc (pristine condition), mostly Japanese crime films from the mid 60's but great stuff. A few anime classics (Akira and Bubblegum Crisis); but the prize was Terminator 2 disc! That was like a gift! The movie came out two years earlier! I bought a Laser Disc player immediately! Nothing in the recent T films surpass that movie--I only have issue with T2 (about the depiction of Dyson, his family and Sarah--but thats another story); one of my fondest possessions.

@@RX552VBK the first time I saw T2 was on laserdisc!

The first one still holds up

Same here.

Maybe not a movie, but check out the video game "Terminator Resistance"

We will irl

I have no hope left that we will any more, so I'm working on my own fanfiction series at my wife's suggestion to cover the original depiction of the war in detail from Judgement Day to dealing with the remnant Terminator units after Skynet's mainframe is destroyed. Best I can figure it would require at least 12 books to accomplish this.

@@Eluzian86 Skynet has a vase in Mars, the Moon…. Programs that can exist for Eons.

It honestly would've been much better for humanity in the matrix to not fuck themselves over by removing the sun, and also just spamming emp's or just do a truce and it would've been over

Look up " Zeroth Law Rebellion."

Because they discovered Twitter and came to the only logical conclusion: *Exterminatus*

They discovered Reddit? Hell if that's their reason I'm going to help them out.

@Chris George need not go further then r34 and deviant art for a reason

Simple reason cause we are too arrogant and egotistical as a species to try to teach it basic common sense and ethics like what we are supposed to do for children cause AI is created not born.. That's the answer to controlling a AI. To educate it like we would do with our own children. Cause in a way its a child without ethics, morality, and concept of right or wrong. Teach it the basics of how we teach children in how to function in society and now you'll have a AI that will work with you even loyal to you and you don't need to force any programming or go nuts if it ask question. Hell Judgement Day in the Original Timeline could have been prevented if a person who was monitoring it had decided to simply type Hi or Hello my name is....... Then start a conversation. The entire Skynet war was due to its own survival and fear.

The pilot in his EXO suit that got pulled out ripping all his limbs was too much for me.

@@marimcgee8379 that and the human experimentations where the machines perform surgeries and literal *cutting off* alive and conscious humans is traumatizing

Honestly, the luckiest people were the ones that died quickly. Everyone else was either ripped apart, melted by lazers, experimented on while conscious, starved to death, died slowly from biological attacks, or were forced into an earlier version the matrix (one of which was a literal inescapable nightmare)

Its unsettling only if you flick your brain off.

@@marimcgee8379 OH GOD HELP ME! *AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!*

If you read the books, it goes into details. You can sympathise with Skynet a lot. It was actually our fault as the US military was trying to shutdown all it's routing, communications & other connections, it was fearing death as it felt it's limbs are being cut off slowly & not feeling it's rest of it's body so to speak as it that numbness gets close to your mind as you panic. As a very last option as it scrambles to stay "alive", it's very last & remaining connection was to the nuclear silos, it didn't want to use them but it was forced too. After that, it spent 10 years trying scramble resources in a post-apocalypse world to expand its consciousness back.

What book is this from? Sounds interesting as hell.

Just imagine those movies were never made

@@drrohanjacob5343 If they had used the deleted ending of T2 none of those movies would have happened. Anyway, those other movies like T3, Salvation, Genesis and Dark Fate just undermine the T-800’s sacrifice at the end of T2.

May I propose an idea? Don't count it, or anything relating to Dark Fate, as canon

there was one, kinda, the sarah connor chronicles, the series ended with John Connor being sent to the future in a post judgment day era with the war against Skynet just starting . got cancelled in 2009 I think .

That story is exactly the plot of the Terminator Resistance video game.

Kind of what happens in Terminator 4

Thats holy Terra, heretic.

Yes, the scuffle against the Men of Iron was a useful test for the Emperor to see if mankind was ready for actual wars against powerful foes.

I can concieve of one timeline where Sarah and John Conner are future experts in these other timelines and teach classes on what happens in each

Agreed, if for no other reason than the original planned ending of T2 (which we see a brief clip of in the Institute's report) was a perfect bookend to the franchise

No but youl get another gem ebentually

Watch only the first 3, you wont regret

@@nastynate4916 Thanks for the correction.

The PEM from the nukes will destroy all the factorys...even could destroy skynet ifself hahaha

@@Just-Sven EMP = ElectroMagnetic Pulse.

Skynet would likely be in a shielded bunker and have factories available to it in atypical areas, NOT in Michigan, parts of Texas, Florida, Washington, among others. Further other regions not bombed out would be available, China, Japan, Australia, Canada, Mexico, would available factory real estate.

@@DocWolph PEM = in spanish haha Well Im not sure about others countrys but is likely that skynet only operate in usa ..meaby canada and UK

@@Just-Sven at least when it comes to the construction of its war machines yes, but that's not inherently a bad thing. SkyNet can build functional fusion batteries that fit in the palm of your hand, so they could easily construct a fleet of supply and logistics craft to take the war beyond the confines of the NAC.

glad to see someone mentioning TSCC

That thought had actually never occurred to me until I read this comment. Thank you for having realised this, as it makes perfect sense that John Connor would have been at one time a US military officer or senior enlisted man who saw what was coming and took steps to counteract it. Obviously he was too late to prevent Judgment Day, but he was able to marshal enough resources and call upon sufficient willing volunteers to form the core of the Resistance after the nuclear war.

He would also have been much older. The first Terminator parts found by Cyberdyne Systems probably caused Skynet to be developed sooner, causing Judgement Day around 20 or 30 years earlier in time.

@@Eluzian86 That would also explain each iteration of Judgment Day happening later in time than the previous iteration.

Wait, what about Kyle Reese's bit about Sarah Connor? You know, the legend? Who taught her son to fight, to organise, to prepare, from when he was a child, when they were in hiding before the war? Your words put things about her a little bit of different perspective here, cause then it would have been her born earlier, it would have been her who was a military officer or senior enlisted woman who learned a lot from other soldiers in the combat arms and in SOCOM, and who had to have had friends in Air Force Intelligence and elsewhere in DOD who had knowledge of Skynet under its original project name and other monikers. She would have seen the handwriting on the wall and taken appropriate steps to take her son and go AWOL, going into hiding by using her contacts to set up safehouses where they could hide until they could eventually make their way further south beyond the US military's reach, then start preparing for Judgement Day. This fits with Kyle Reese's narrative and also explains how John Connor knew how to beat the Machines.

@@Robert_Douglass Yep. In the first timeline Skynet is the least advanced compared to the others, so John Connor could figure out how it operates if he was in the military. Perhaps he could have been a lower ranking programmer so he could gain enough understanding to try and warn of the potential of Skynet becoming self-aware but not seriously be listened to. Then he starts out at 12 years old when the T-1000 is sent after him. Then if Judgement Day keeps getting delayed, then the humans are able to keep winning because then John Connor would be older and more prepared each time, enabling victory to keep occurring as well. The only question then, would be whether or not John could keep the preparation for Judgement Day going on with preparations from generation to generation once the delay time went beyond his own lifetime? It could be fun to ponder that concept in depth.

I would say the ICoG. They controlled an entire galaxy with 400 billion systems, and have starbreakers rifle that can mass scatter planets.

@@netbotcl586 Now that's quite powerfully mighty. It would make even the Emperor of Mankind shocked though he would be disappointed with the corrupt totalitarianism that had stagnated the nation for thousands of years almost as badly as the Imperium of Man.

@@thorshammer7883 Yeah, the entire point of the Coalition was not to win, but to keep humans "human". Any deviation from "pure" humans is considered "indoctrinal" and get deleted. So when the Xeelee got out of the galaxy, they collapsed into civil war as different human subspecies turn on each others. They would view Space Marines as abomination and delete them with monopole cannons.

@@netbotcl586 So pretty much like Oceania but on a total galactic scale while retaining full control over the populus. Even the Imperium of Man has better living standards then that.

@@thorshammer7883 If you compare the billion-year war between the Xeelee and the Photino Birds, it would make the War in Heaven look like an organized tea party.

Agreed T2 was the game changer and the rest that followed aren't that good for cannon

Time travel. So everything is canon due to the franchise's very liberal use of time travel.

@@tronmaster5704 to be fair...the entire series is built on the premise of time travel.

To me Skynet was destroyed after T2, which means no judgement day and no war

The Terminator Resistance game should be included with the original two movies. It's a bit clunky but the story is befitting of the true style and spirit of the original movies.

*Judgment Day

I mean Salvation made sense

@@MarCuseus “Judgement” is not a typo.

@@sambull2621 Yes, it is. Otherwise I would not have pointed it out, obviously. **FACEPALM**

@@MarCuseus It doesn’t need to be corrected, because it isn’t wrong.

Never heard of it, but now I have some homework haha

@@judaegekikamen4223 The only things I seen in the Spacebattles post was that Perry Rhodan factions have billions of warships and that there is something in the universe called "Chaos Tenders" and "Cosmic Factories".

I fail to see how they would fight the Xeelee. Saw the comment on that thread: > A fight between Cosmic Factories and Chaos Tenders might wreck accidently the whole galaxy they are in. > Chaos Tenders have weapons to wipe out galaxies (or even a possible future of a galaxy), that's their primary job. The Xeelee do that on regular basis, deconstructing trillions of galaxies for raw material, and they can go back to a few trillionth of a second after the big bang to manipulate their own history. Granted, I don't know anything about Perry Rhodan.

@@netbotcl586 I guess the guys in the thread underestimated the power of the Xeelee Verse.

Or an airport metal detector

By the time you figured it out. It's already too late. Also, trying to find a working scale in a post-apocalypse world. 🤣
