Topic: Terminator HexologyPosted By: Icarium
Subject: Terminator Hexology
Date Posted: November 17 2021 at 13:24
One of the greatest (popular) sci-fi series classics in the history of mankind. The most beloved work by James Cameron, an epic discovery of human and machine relationships. Of the dawn of the human race and the rize of the machine. I have seen 4 and a halv of these only the first three can I view without pause. But one time i will attempt to have a Terminator binge marathon. I love this franchize as uncritticaly as i love Pirates of the Carribean franchize - I am invested in the lore so to speak.

Defiantly between 1 & 2. I went with the first one because it blew my mind the first time I saw it.

The first two were great but everything after was unnecessary crap.

Only seen the first two. Until recently I would have voted for T2, but having watched them both again it's the first.
Would like to see the latest.....

The first one.
In terms of our understanding of the way time works, the end of T2 rendered the first one impossible to have happened.
Just saying.

Oh, I thought I already participated in this one, but it must have been in my dreams... The first two are still the best in my eyes, but I personally prefer T2 (despite the fallacy pointed out by Laz above, which I don't care about when we take them individually...).

The first two movies are classics. The rest of the films is pretty dispensable.

There had been created some "The Terminator" polls, but this hexology is/can be the first.

Wasn't it already impossible for what'shisname to have fathered (young oik) what'shisname, in the first one?....

For me the last one is just awful. Its attempts to be politically correct and "woke" (not that there's anything inherently wrong with those things) seemed to take precedent over the story and it really just becomes a rambling mess. A shame considering it featured the return of Linda Hamilton.
It is the only one of the series that I have only watched once and I don't have any desire to revisit it any time in the future, unless a terminator comes back and forces me to.

Time travel hey? What a minefield of paradox.

No film will ever match or recreate the cruelly raw vision of the first. It was the flick that gave sci-fi to unwashed derelicts everywhere. No small achievement.

The 1st one, where the concept is fresh. The 2nd adds to the paradoxical aspect of time travel, I like that. All of them entertained me to a variable (always decreasing) degree, but please don't ask for consistency!

While the original was an excellent first effort, especially considering the limited budget, the follow up was a masterpiece with Linda Hamilton just rockin' the Sarah Connor role.

I think when "Why do you cry?" was uttered by a once-homicidal robot it lost all the punk credibility that the first one had. By comparison T2 is a Hollywood clip-job.
