New T3 Trailor

[Tiefling]

BTW - what's the music playing in the trailor? I know it; I'm even sure I have it on MP3, but I dont remember the name.

I believe it's called "Gothic Power." It was also the music for the LotR teasers. Do you really have an mp3 of decent quality?

Oh I'm sure they can think of all sorts of reasons why the machines still rise, but the question is should they?

If what you wrote is true, it invaldiates the entire 2nd movie. It might as well have never happened.

Well, the premise of the machines never rising is all based on time travel, so they can rather easily rationalize that with paradoxes, which would, in truth, crop up.

For example, it could easily be postulated that the Terminators must rise up in the movie timeline, otherwise, how could they have been sent back in the first place? By the logic of the first two movies existing, Skynet will take over, otherwise it could never have happened.

Time travel theory has so many different explanations and such that there shouldn't be a major problem for this film. The second film would then be about them trying to change the future...and ultimately failing. I think that'd come off as delightfully ironic, since the Terminators were trying that in the first movie, and they failed too, just like the heroes do in the second movie.

Kinda like 'It's a Wonderful Life Part 2: Potter's Revenge' or something. I mean, when I think of films where every single question was answered, where no business was left unfinished, T2 kinda tops the list.

Hmm. . but what would've prevented SkyNet from sending back like N "sleeper" terminators? Whose mission would be to attack Connors at year 84, 91, 94, 95, 96? I mean, that what if they sent two terminators after him in T2, one tries to kill John instantly (the one that makes the movie happen), and one that goes to a warehouse for, like, two years. Then activates (batteries last 120 years, remember) and tries to kill him / help cyberdyne / whatever.

That would make for a crappy movie, at least, but it would be possible in a sense in which anything is possible with time travel.

BTW, who designeg the original SkyNet? All of T2's Cyberdynes work was based on the microchip of T1, as Dyson admits .. oh no, I've gone cross-eyed

dunno, but I still have a crush on her ... *wolf swoons* ... it's gotta be a redhead thing

Forget Claire Danes! Gimme Heather Matarazzo any day of the week.

Gonna go see it. I have a question though: Does anybody know what the name of that song is that's playing during the trailer?

Who? ... *wolf starts thinking of Patricia Tallman [aka Lyta Alexander] in B5 *

Whoops. I thought it was one of those older classical opera ones like Mozarts Requiem or something. Shoot. Is it possible to get a possible to get a copy of Gothic Power? How long is it? IIRC from an older LOTR thread it was quite short.

Technically, nothing. There's no reason Skynet couldn't do that. The only thing that might prohibit that was, IIRC, in the first movie the rebels had just won the war. They had beaten the supercomputer, and that was why it had made that "last-ditch" effort by sending a Terminator back in time. It also explains why the rebels were able to send a man after him, since they had to have access to Skynet's time travel machinery. Given that, it might not have had time to send that many Terminators back.

Obviously, it's been able to send back at least three, and the rebels sent back one of their own men, and two reprogrammed Terminators, one after each unit Skynet sent back.

That would make for a crappy movie, at least, but it would be possible in a sense in which anything is possible with time travel.

The "crappy movie" postulate is probably why this Terminator movie will be the last one. In the realm of comics and novels though, there have already been a lot more Terminators sent back.

Skynet was, AFAIK, just another military defense program being worked on, the typical AI-style supercomputer program that the military thinks will give them an edge. Cyberdyne, again AFAIK, were the people contracted to help build/write the Skynet program/computer, and they did just a little too well...

Is it just me, or is the guy (presumably a protagonist since he appears alot) the same actor who played Dr. Bashiir on DS9?!

Siddig El Fadil aka Alexander Siddig? No.

It's Nick Stahl, who normally looks nothing like that.

I see what you're getting at. That one good look we have of him
makes them look kinda alike. Mostly because of him being really
tanned and having the same haircut as Bashir.
