Hooray! Another legit good Terminator sequel! Nutso revenue requirements. Linda Hamilton and Arnold physique maintenance. Arnold appreciation as always.
\n\n Opener \n\nNo spoilers but wow what a way to begin. CG face replacements. Terminator battle plans. More alternate timelines.
\n\n Human upgrades \n\nGrace. Imposing! \u201cDesign\u201d considerations. Relying on human tissues. Comparing and contrasting with the Terminator Salvation\u2019s Sam Worthingtonbot. Bio-aumentation. More than muscle! Nervous system response shortcuts.
\n\n Robots taking our jobs \n\nRobot literally taking the guy\u2019s job this time. Learning to work with the robots. Extended robot anxieties throughout the history of the Terminator franchise. Robots surveilling and monitoring our jobs and making it easy for Terminators to find us.
\n\n Terminators, revisited \n\nNew Terminator! The Rev-9 taking the best bits of previous no-longer-canon sequels. Infiltrating and cracking wise.
\n\n Legion \n\nSynet rebranded. AI built on human data and maybe no matter which platform becomes sentient it will come to similar conclusions and methods. Cyberwarfare platforms.
\n\n Humanity \n\nBecoming human. Understanding humanity. What happens to a Terminator after their mission is complete? Post-mission Terminators getting creative.
\n\n\nSupport the show!
