Where do they come up with this?

That's entirely THE most uninteresting part of the timeline.

I understand why they have never done a full on machine world version, it's too expensive, I've never understood why they never went there with the movies, budgets can't be the reason. TV sure they can't go there but of all the tripe they've come out with and no one thinks to make the machine world Terminator to me is positively fascinating.

I think the Wachowski Bros. already beat James Cameron to that movie. Only they gave us post-modern Kierkegaard rather than cro-magnon Schwarznegger.

Funny it's nice to know your ideas were financially viable, I told my wife to be over 20 years ago when I first watched the thing that it was cool and all and I liked the movie but I'd really like to see one made in the machine world.

the summer after T2 came out, at the age of 15 (jesus, I feel old right now) I wrote a spoof script with a hot-ass female Terminator dressed in all leather to be the next thing sent down to kill John Connor. I'm still trying to figure out how those suckers at Kassar hacked my computer years before the internet was invented for public consumption!

it even had the line: "She'll be back!" in it. Man, that thing was REALLY distasteful! I wish I still had that file, it would be HILARIOUS to read now - lots of teen-aged sexually frustrated angst taken out through the hot female terminator, using sex as her ultimate weapon. Those legs could break your ribs like snapping a twig.

Ah those were the days.

How often does a teenage boy think about sex? Well when they don't would be an easier question to answer, probably for a minute or two eating pizza, or during finals for a few minutes the rest is just one infinite loop.

All I have to say is God save the current generation with internet access, oh man that's got to leave a mark, I had a few porn mags I scrounged together, today the world is literally there for the taking....

Then I had three girls and ouch!!!!!

BTW, it's sometimes painful to reread what you wrote, I found several of my old college papers the other day, I thought the grading was generous to say the least... wow that's some serious pain right there.

That sort of happened in GoldenEye, too. Maybe you were ahead of your time, afterall.

Anyone else catch this. I thought the terminator was terrible, but over all I guess the writers strike is going to let me watch it. So, basically, it was nothing special.

I actually love this show. While there were some cheesy scenes, I think it's been nicely done overall.

I liked the show. I will continue to watch. I have a feeling this is one of those shows that will continue to get better as it goes along. That's OK with me.

I liked it enough to tune in for the 2nd episode---and will continue to watch, it is not really what I expected.

Replacement girl terminator is strangely endearing, sonny is kind of wimpy --but then the weight of the world has been resting on his shoulders for awhile-- , I don't like Sarah character much , she’s more bluster than kick butt, though as posted above it seems like the type of show that gets better with time maybe she'll grow on me.

Replacement girl terminator is from Firefly/Serenity, my favorite character in that series.

Wimpy John is from Heroes season 1, he was a wimp/nerd type there too.

Sarah is from 300, she was a strong woman in that movie hopefully she can pull that off in the series eventually.

Okay if it hasn't been mentioned yet its scary impressive how much info you retain.

After reading your post I could actually picture them in their respective roles, having tuned into all of the shows, but while on screen I couldn't place them, just knew I had caught them in something else---I am terrible with remembering actor names.
