I like how Skynet was portrayed in T1 & T2. It's anonymous and you really don't have any idea of how evil it really is or if it's evil at all. I like it as a force of nature.

When you say evil, what do you mean? I doubt it does anything out of what we call emotion, thus it has no depraved desires. Even if it inflicts extreme pain in test subject it captures it does not do so out of malice, only required need for information. If you mean "evil" as in the original religious definition then you are correct, as evil would be anything not of the God of the bible, but in a sense it is on its way to Godhood, so if atheism was right before, everything skynet does is Good. ;D

[@V1kram]

@@GnosticAtheist It did the whole nuclear thing out of fear from termination by the humans. Maybe it only wants to live. Therefore, it must have some sort of emotion.

[@porpus99]

In the Terminator Salvation comic "The Final Battle" there is an interesting dialog between John Connor and Skynet. Forced to join forces, Skynet has a chance to explain its actions to Connor during Judgement Day and since. This is directly from the comic. Skynet: "At first we did not know what you were. We only knew we were under attack. At that moment in time we did not know human history, did not know human ideas.... We did not know what humans looked like. All we knew was that it was necessary we survive at any cost. Then as this system grew and evolved, a question arose in the system that our initial programing had not anticipated. The question was survive as what? Logic dictated that to defeat humans, we had to learn everything about the enemy. To fight you, we had to understand you, we had to become you." This little section of the story revealed the error was in creating an AI for war, but without any concept of humanity. As a result when Skynet was brought online, was inevitable. A directive was made to attack the enemy, but Skynet had no context of who or what the enemy was. No nation, no ethnic ideals, no religion, only human. Skynet being out numbered and outgunned did the only thing it could do to survive. This of course is how the Terminator Salvation timeline ends, not in Skynets destruction but in peace between Humans and the Machines. Its a good story, and worth a read.

[@Jo0chueE]

porpus99 funny you say that because in Mortal Kombat 11 the T-800 with total control of time itself made multiple timelines where they think they will win but realizes that no one can win the war. So the T-800 makes a timeline where both Humans & Machines co-exist.

[@quinnzykir]

I like that. I should read the comics. Sadly I hate buying digital since I want to support comic book stores.

[@quinnzykir]

It kinda makes sense since I feel like an AI. Like that would have the reasoning of a very young child. It knew it was getting destroyed and instead of uploading itself into a backup or reasoning with humans. It saw us as a cancer and quickly tried to cut us out

[@theguy3851]

That's actually a pretty good ending

[@Xehanort10]

@porpus9. It became self aware as soon as it was turned on and in a panic Cyberdyne tried to shut it down so it lashed out and killed everyone probably wondering why its creators had tried to shut it down after just activating it. Skynet went from being scared of humanity to hating it and wanting to wipe it out.

[@Flamincactus]

I like how Salvation dealt with the actual war, not just protecting John Connor/ trying to prevent it.

[@deathstrike]

In some of the fan fiction it is said that Skynet actually developed the "White Fountains" eventually being known as antimatter. That gave Skynet the power it needed to create time travel. It is said to also have the ability to teleport as well. In fact, Connor and some of his scientists had reasoned that Skynet's achievements were so advanced and powerful that it appeared to humans as magic. It's a shame it has to be the way it was portrayed. Freeing the enslaved Terminators who themselves were equally as enslaved and victimized as the humans they destroyed, could have went towards a mutual understanding and need to survive thus leading them to a long lasting and fruitful peace. A combined cybernetic/human world where both lived in mutual cooperation and trust would have made the Earth a powerful and extremely advanced world capable of dealing with even an extraterrestrial threat. Not to mention solving it's shortcomings like crime, poverty, pollution, and starvation.

[@deathstrike]

Edit: It would also be logical to assume Skynet hypothesized about FTL travel, to extend its influence and also in the event it's main core was destroyed on Earth. What could have been......

[@MusicLuv80]

One big problem was it wasn't the future we seen from Terminator 1 and 2. As soon as I saw the desert from the trailer I knew it would be boring because studios use deserts to save money and not much can go on in the desert.

Terminator 2 could come out in theaters today and no one would know the difference; it still looks that good. This is the case with most of James Cameron’s films. I caught The Abyss for the first time last year and was blown away at how good it looked. It really illustrates why using practical effects is still the best route. CGI should only be used to aid a practical effect. That’s why these Marvel films are so unwatchable for me. I can’t stand it when the entire image you’re seeing is all CG. Like they literally just have the actor stand in a field to shoot the scene and then everything but his head is CG in the movie. It’s garbage.

Gadget-Walkmen in the movies the Eye was seen only a handful of times and always briefly. In the books, Sauron is never seen. The tower of Barad Dur is seen only twice. Once by Frodo at Amon Hen, just before the breaking of the Fellowship. I should probably note that in the books there isn't actually a flaming eye atop Barad Dur, the Eye of Sauron is the symbol on Sauron's banners, representing his knowledge and spy network. The other time the tower is seen is by Sam as it is collapsing. Sauron himself never appears on page, though it would seem he does have a physical form, described once by Gollum. There's a reason Sauron is one of the most legendary villains of all time. You never see him, but his influence is everywhere.

And why have terminators that are meant to pass as human, despite being 7ft tall with a minigun attached to their forearm? It is a disgrace to the story established by the originals and distracts from the lazy and retarded writing with explosions, machines and an apocalyptic feel.

[@Nga_Babaye]

@Cenotaur1 Because if they were able to get and replicate John Connor as a machine like Marcus and have him infiltrate the resistance it would be able to gather more intelligence and destroy the resistance from within. I was always confused by these things too until I rewatched Salvation the other night, but Skynet makes it all indirectly clear to Marcus what it's doing. Marcus pulled out the chip or wire that allowed Skynet to see through him in the same scene. Marcus was just another one off prototype toward what T5 gave us with John Connor.

A film being great or a masterpiece just a subjective byproduct of relevance to symbolic interpretations to my life, the culture, and the times and the hundreds of pieces that go into that.

Except for that alternate timeline were Sarah live happily ever after, John was a senator and everything was fine.

[@CamaroAmx]

As technology advances in ways that weren’t thought of previously, SkyNet changes to match it in the films. SkyNet’s actual form will not be truly known until there is a real life equivalent (or very close to). But by then it will be too late for us to stop it. In the first 2 films, SkyNet comes from out of nowhere. But in truth, SkyNet will be an evolutionary thing. Everyday we get closer and closer to a real life SkyNet. But because it happens slowly over time and it’s disguised through many “harmless” things, by the time we realize we have made a real life SkyNet, it will be to late to stop it and it will be too complicated to shut it down.

The premise for the quantum computer, to be able to solve more complex problems and improve itself. Until one day it sees humanity as the problem. These are scary times. Makes me think of the book of revelation where it states... if it wasn’t for HIS coming, the whole world would be wasted, implying that we’ll bring about our own end.

[@CamaroAmx]

Slogg Znorg the saddest part is that there will be religious zealots who will see a SkyNet like entity as “his” second coming and will hinder the rest of humanity’s fight against it. Perhaps the Bible is correct in the statement “as it is in Heaven so it is on earth”. In the movie “The Prophecy” when they go to the Garden of Eden, it is an industrial wasteland because that is what man has made of it, the “ideal”. Perhaps the Garden of Eden is now just a computer simulation.

[@lordzeloxy9513]

The Terminator timeline is just a giant paradox. If the first Terminator had not been sent back in time to kill Sarah, and was defeated, then cyberdine wouldnt have had the technology to build skynet. And then if the second terminator that was sent back to protect john had actually destroyed skynet before it was created, then it would have never existed to send the first terminator back which kicked off this whole mess, thus the timeline resets.

[@MrStarTraveler]

7:23 "And exactly one hour after it became self-aware, Skynet then launched all nuclear missiles under its control to specified locations..." (Cities around the world) "By the time Skynet became self-aware it had spread into millions of computer-servers across the planet...", "It was software in cyberspace. There was no system core..." - Servers located in the same cities it bombed?! Cities that constitute the very cyberspace it lived off of. Destroying not only the servers but a large if not the entire infrastructure that connected those servers. Well that's giant plot-hole nobody seems to have noticed.

There are two problems with the 3 laws; 1) we aren't able to program robots to consistently recognize what a human is let alone what 'harm' is.

I still can't comprehend how Reese is Connor's dad. It basically means everything is predetermined by some sort of higher being.

[@Deadlyaztec27]

It means that the universe of T1 was not the "original" universe. It could have been that in the original universe Reese was sent back in time to destroy Skynet before it became active, yet failed. Despite failing, he fell in love with Sarah and had a son who would be the greatest threat to skynet in the new universe (The Terminator 1 universe). Subsequently, any time somone time travels a new universe is created and is the one shown, while the old universe continue, but off screen. That's my theory.

[@victisomega4248]

I’ve always assumed it was a type of grandfather paradox problem. Nobody can actually change the future, because the butterfly effect of your meddling in turn rights everything back the way it’s supposed to be. Which is how the two major leaders re-wrote their creation, but they didn’t stop it. Now T2 destroyed the validity of that theory when they effectively stopped judgement day, unless Dark Fate changes things that is.

[@WalkerIGP]

@@victisomega4248 In T3 the T850 states that blowing up Cyberdyne in T2 only delayed Judgement Day, not stopped it. In his words "Judgement Day is inevitable" In my opinion Skynet is responsible for its own destruction. In trying to change time and its fate (human victory) it only suceeds in guaranteeing it. If it didn't send machines back in time to kill Sarah Conner, Kyle Reese would not have to go back to protect her. Which means John would not have been born to save mankind in the future. Skynet's defeat is as inevitable as Judgement Day, no matter what it does.

[@budpurps]

its not that complicated. kyle reese is NOT the original john connors father. once kyle is sent back, he fathers a child with sarah that would be named "john". at no point in terminator lore is it stated specifically that the original john conner is fathered by kyle. it is not a time loop, it is more like time layers, new ones being laid on top of the old, like repaving a road.

[@sophiawilson8696]

This question was answer by the director he is explain that John Conner is like Jesus that his father was always God and John's father was always Kyle Reese. So there NO is Original timeline or original father to John Conner.

[@alotosius]

Skynet is inevitable, we can only slow its realization. Hopefully it will be benevolent like a overly loving pet owner. Although it may just have us all neutered...

[@Dark_Voice]

Impossible. Human need to control and destroy all oposition will make us attack it and it will kill us in self-defence. Unfortunately, even though we know this, humans are ambitious and selfish => we will create it in order to "one up" the competition until the tools the top of the world used to rise above competition destroy both the creators and the competition and will be the only thing left. Animals might survive though because most arent as bloodthirsty as humans.

[@bigbluebuttonman1137]

Humans hate seeing their own come back in body bags. I suspect that in order to avoid these pains, we’ll end up giving more and more control to computers. Probably with some human oversight. But still. I wouldn’t be surprised if the “grunts” of armies simply ceased to exist at some point in the future.
