“It’s in your nature to destroy yourselves.” -T-800, Terminator 2 So I recently rewatched a few of the Terminator movies and the Sarah Connor Chronicles and I have reached one inescapable conclusion… Terminator 3 got it right… At the end of the movie, John Connor comes to the conclusion that it wasn’t humanity’s job to prevent judgement day, just simply to survive it so … Read More Can Skynet Truly Be Stopped?
