Terminator the film

[$eye]

i don't think michael connor was the guy who died in terminator 1

i think he was that guy's son, the little boy in terminator 2

for ages i thought that they were the same person, until i realised that this would make him his own father, which would obviously cause some rather nasty inbreeding.

which creates a strange timetravel loop.

normal guy goes back in time and has sex with his mum, thus becoming his own father.
OK, maybe he's not that normal. but he looks it.
then he dies.
then he is born, but he's a bit deformed because he is his own father and his genes are a bit mashed up.
he goes back in time, has sex with his mum etc
then he dies.
then he is born, but he is even more deformed this time.
and so on, each time he goes through the loop his deformities are amplified until he has three heads and seven arms. At which point Sarah Connor would probably refuse to sleep with him, and the earth is enslaved by the robots.

those pesky time travel paradox!!!

[penciLneck]

Weird thats exactly what I thought was going on.

[decadnids]

he is def. not his father, his father was a collegue of his in the future, who was sent back to make sure he was born as he was the one who caused the uprising against the machines (connor).
but it is weird that his father (the one who was sent back in the first one) was born after him in the future.

thanx dude! i couldn't be bothered to explain. lol

Dunno, I think that was just a cover story for some dodgy timehopping incest. And if it continues iteritively - like $eye outlines here, the mutant offspring end up taking over the world. Perhaps in fact that was the plan in the first place, oops may be giving the filmmakers too much credit. hasta'lavista.

[marcel]

ill be back

[tsr_fredrik]

well in Futurama, there is Fry his own grandfather. because he went back in time and killed the guy that he always thought was his grandfather (by accident). then his grandmother was sad and they boinged.

[marcel]

really?havent seen this episode yet

[lowtide]

they been trying to make terminator 3 for years but without james cameron.. maybe arnold finally needs the cash

[marcel]

no, he wants to become governor of california. he hopes to get more votes, because hes making this film in hollywood. not much films are made today completely in hollywood, its to expensive.

god i'm full with senseless knowledge...

A paradox is not seen in The Terminator, but pre-ordained time travel is -- that is, the known future could not exist without alterations of the past. An assassin robot is sent back in time to kill the mother of a future rebel leader, and a rebel soldier (Reese) is sent back to prevent this from happening. Reese meets up with the woman, and causes her a great deal of confusion by using the past tense when speaking of events from her life that have not yet happened. We see flash-forwards rather than flashbacks, as Reese is remembering the future. He impregnates the woman, becoming the father of the future leader. Although this was not planned by the rebels, the future could not have happened the way it did without this intervention in the past.

hey si,

are you using the willy wonka music i got of you in a track? i

[KaOz]

iam the terminator. fuck the rest. fakes :)

[Yer_Maw]

i wrote a letter to william hill (betting company) a couple of years ago looking for odds on arnie becoming a govener and or president within 20 years. they never wrote back. i know he is not american and cant be president but you never know :)

[Sheridan]

actually yer maw he is an american citizen now. other wise he wouldn't be able to run for any governmental job.

[Yer_Maw]

yeah but do you not have to be born in america to be the president?

[Sheridan]

yes I do believe that you do have to be an american born citizen to run for president.
you would think I would know this type of stuff but I skipped a lot in my senior year governemt class.:)

[Yer_Maw]

fair enough :) i dont think i would have went either.
