Terminator 2 ended perfectly, they should have left it alone instead of milking it.

I disagree, as if one followed time as linear, the destruction of the t1000 and cyberdyne, therefore preventing the birth of the ai called skynet, would then also then result in there being no time displacement equipment, thus restoring everyone killed in the first terminator by a terminator, not to mention kyle would not have gone back in time to get sarah connor pregnant.

Best case scenario, they would be stuck in a time loop.

Never thought about it that way!

 

I need to rewatch T1 and T2.

A sad part on the use of my free time, I tried to study temperal physics

Failed miserably, but the example given was following time as a linear event

it's never to late.

 

My mum graduated from business admin at 46 an uncle I had at 48 from diploamtic something.

It could encompass parallel time lines [i.e. key decisions you make create a separate time line] punching through and intersecting with one another

New trailer for the movie. FAIR WARNING: IT GIVES A LOT AWAY. There are certain things it shows I would consider major spoilers but I admit I haven't been paying a lot of attention to this movie so they might be common knowledge. These things haven't been shown in other trailers as far as I know. I wish I had not watched it.

Not sure why it's not embedding properly but that works out because the thumbnail for the video is a spoiler too.

Her hand is backward on the skull because she's facing toward the sun in the picture which means her hand is facing toward to you.  Look at the fingers carefully. 

 

Maybe her arm got twisted in the movie... who knows.

 

 

:huh:

 

It looks to me like her thumb is on the right next to her leg. It still looks awkward though.

Gotta laugh at the top YT comment there...

 

"Remember when Arnold got that mini gun and Shot at the police from the Cyberdyne systems building and after then Miles Dyson dies that awesome death. That was good times not this time travel ****."

 

That's clearly a guy who never understood the first films then :p

I will see it, because I have this horrible streak that says "Maybe this one will be good, maybe they won't fudge up a story that really should be able to write itself".  Same with Superman and other franchises - I fail to see how so many people can write bad films, when there's such a wealth of great material to work from.

 

I personally loved SOME PARTS of Salvation and Sarah Connor Chronicles - heck, the last 5 minutes of Rise Of The Machines was epic to my mind.  Sure, they were flawed, but some of the ideas - it made that hopeful side of me think "Someone somewhere pitched a great idea, and then Hollywood overthought it and messed it up".

    • I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
    • Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.
    • This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
