AlexGreen#20 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 If: You have no connection to the original two movies. You have developed a strong stomach for a little bit too much girl power. You have the ability to turn your brain off and not ask too many questions about why choices were made Mackenzie Davis really revs your engine. This movie is watchable 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrecking T2 to replace John Connor with a hispanic woman for no discernible reason is a move that I totally get making a ton of people mad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes it so much more enjoyable. Just watch the damn movie for the popcorn entertainment and leave everything else at the door. It'll really help with movie going experiences. Now, I'm not saying settle for any **** that comes into theaters. I'm just saying, let a movie be just that, a movie. I get people aren't capable of doing that but it really sucks.

beekay414 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 And how the hell did it wreck T2? T2 still happened and Judgment Day never occurred because of what they did. This has nothing to do with T2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the entire reason why I watch these types of movies. It's a movie about a time traveling sentient, borderline indestructible killing machine that's trying to kill someone. Yeah, I'm going to turn my brain off because there's no thinking to be done in a movie like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire purpose of T1 and T2 was keeping John Connor alive to lead the human race against the Rise of the Machines. John Connor is now dead. Why were we even here?

Time line probably isn't the right word. It happened after the events of T2 and had absolutely nothing to do with that story line. Not sure how that wrecks T2 at all.

Star Wars' warpspeed jump is the most egregious example of this, but this one also messed with things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All sci-fi type movies take liberties with realism and consistency. For example, how many times has a sci-fi story line revolved around Unobtainium? You have to take liberties with movies like this because of the lack of realism they involve. I dunno. I guess I just don't feel the need to take movies too seriously. Certain types of movies? Absolutely, I can understand it. Sci-fi movies? Nah, those are the ones that you turn your brain off and just let **** happen.
