The Terminator as 100% possible, logically and physics wise

Time displacement is possible, although it doesn't affect that future. So there in lies the single conundrum of the film, logic. Why would Skynet create another reality that has no effect on this one, it's illogical. NOT SO, Skynet may not have sent a Terminator, that would require energy on the Planck length...perhaps what it did was recreate the big bang and the cosmos as we know it, a computerized universe simulation of the cosmos about 60 years in the past, and placed a Terminator and a human there, to gather intell on the resistance and how they operate, to learn more about human nature to better combat these humans whom they underestimated.

The affected past would be simulated war games, for Skynet to work out. It is an operable past that it can alter and base strategies off of.

LoL @ Planck length.

That is what it takes to create an Einstein Rosen bridge.

With that kind of energy The Resistance is done for without time travel.

Terminator as 100% logical would include sending back a nuke to John Connor's hometown instead of a destructible Ahnold-bot. What are you smoking?

Or a nuclear Ahnold-bot. He'd be glowing with sexy.

You're not getting what I'm saying - Skynet recreates the exact conditions of how the resistance formed by generating a simulation of the cosmos as we know it, then it fast forwards time within this simulation to see the resistance's next move before it happens.

Of course the simulation may not reproduce perfectly because of the unpredictability of the synaptic activity within the human mind (humans have a strength that can't be measured [choice]), so here and there Skynet has to alter the simulation to create the conditions, ergo; adding a terminator and a Kyle Reese to a slightly different 1980s. It's not the same as time travel.

This simulation is to help Skynet better predict the resistance's every move by scrutinizing human tactics in an almost identical war to expedite human extermination. The Terminator Chronology in the franchise we know and love is nothing but a virtual simulation that is indistinguishable from the real universe. As simulated skynet creates more simulations complexity stacks, and eventually within that chaos of nearly infinite potential outcomes Skynet finds just the right move that results in its universe's version of human extinction.

That sounds worse than the original plot. And convoluted. Why would they do such a stupid thing when they can send back a nuke?

What I always wondered is: how did the T-1000 and T-X get sent back? They weren't covered with real skin. They could mimic the appearance of it, but still, it wasn't living tissue. They didn't create living skin.

Also, in the original film, why didn't they cover some advanced hand weapon with living tissue, which the Terminator could then just rip off once it was back in our time?

Lastly, I suspect Pyramid Head was a Terminator that got lost between dimensions and get messed up real bad in the process.

Then Skynet uses this information to enslave the human race and turn them into batteries. 😎

Time displacement is not possible.. humans want proof of things... because of ideas.. nature shows you there is no proof there is just IS

That wasn't even a sentence. Do you just string random words together?

i dnt need a sentence to tell you time displacement isnt possible

now are we talking tv or going back in time playa ?

That's what "time displacement" is. Time dilation is something else entirely.

well i dnt understand the title then

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that there's not much that you do understand.

that goes for all of us

So knowing that, do you think you're in a tenable position to preach what others really do or do not know?
