Ash VS Terminator

well, Ash is in a shed again but this time the Terminator is coming after him instead of deadites. Terminator is not armed with any weapons but its trying to kill Ash with its barehands (it can rip apart humans without trying). Ash spends most of the time running around like an idiot but eventually gets to the shed where the weapons are. now its "groovy" time! can Ash do it. all weapons as of the ED2 movie.

Nothing in Ashs' tool shed will be able to harm the Terminator. Ash would have to concoct a super volatile explosive and then after clearing all of the flesh away from the Terminator he would have to insert the explosive in the same sweet spot that Reese did in the first terminator. Ash, simply wouldn't have enough time to do that though and even if he did. He would probably end up dying as well. As soon as the Terminator grasps Ash, it's all over.

What if he is possessed by the necronomicon at the time..?

he can slice him with the chainsaw though. and didn't Sarah drop Cromartie with a shotgun to the head?

He could slice off the biological parts; the chainsaw wouldn't go through the terminator's skeletal frame though, at least not fast enough before it grabbed and killed Ash in the process.

The TV show isn't true to the movies, the machines in that show suffer damage they shouldn't.

In Cromartie's case, I think that was a grenade round or something.

Yes, please don't even bring up that sorry excuse for a television show.

There is no way that a chainsaw is going to cut through any part of the Terminators exoskeleton. The Chainsaw would stall or the chain would snap. If for some reason the saw didn't stall or the chain didn't snap, the teeth would break off or dullen. There is no way that a Chainsaw is going to cut through Steel, especially Ash's Chainsaw.

It should be well accepted that a Shotgun is not going to affect a T-800.

Absolutely. We see shotguns hitting him in the other movies and like you say, it had no effect beyond knocking the guy over...

But this was some explosive round thats why Im even half willing to accept it/give it the benefit of the doubt for the show's sake.
But even so...it does cheapen the T-800 a little imho.

yeah, to be fair, the Terminators durability is somewhat inconsistent in the movie's as well. In one scene they face a massive explosion and walk away unharmed. In another scene, a puny homemade pipebomb shreds them in half 😂

I try to read that like Reese knew where a weak spot'd be where the explosive leverage would have been maximized...
Akin to the Armaggedeon thing about the 'firecracker in the palm of an open hand vs a firecracker in a clenched fist' thing.*

......Something im trying also throw in a little on the Cromartie thing too.

* Strange though, that it should so thoroughly destroy the rest of it though. Like the legs and everything. While the torso remains relatively intact.
