Caltrops - Peter Molyneux's The Movies





	[quote name="E. L. Koba"][quote name="laudablepuss"][quote name="I need clarification"][quote name="laudablepuss"]They could have at least kept this consistent.[/quote] Why would they start now? I imagine that the set-up for T4 is that it takes place in teh post-apocalyptic future, so here's a scene I want to see: A bunch of those metal-skeleton Terminators sitting around a big council, debating how to stop John Conner: "Let's send back a Terminator to kill his mom." "Okay. Done." "Wait a minute, why don't we just send back one of these even cooler Terminators to kill him, instead? You know, the ones with magic?" "Yeah, that does sound better." "Hold on, hold on. Didn't we have one that had the magic shape-shifting stuff, but also a flame-thrower attachment?" "Ooooh! Yeah, let's send that one! And kill all his friends, too!"[/quote] So, you're saying that there might be some teensy tiny consistency problems created by the time travel plot device. I dunno, what if they use tie travel instead? [STUPID INSIDE JOKE ALERT] Anyway, it's not magic, it's "liquid metal". Big difference. I guess they're made out of mercury or something? I don't recall my thermometer ever trying to kill me, though. As if other people read this site.[/quote] Possible (slightly gay) explanation. The time machine can only send people back a set distance in time. Like 30 years or whatever. So skynet sends back the original Arnold just before the machine is captured and the humans send back Reese. Then, 10 years later when they have the T1000 they manage to build another time machine... just before that time machine is captured by the humans and they send back Arnold #2. And then 10 years later.... Or they could just say "Time travel is complicated. That's just the way it works."[/quote]
