    Jonathan Mostow's take on T3 felt faithful, balancing CGI with practical effects
    McG's take on Salvation felt solid, and actually tried to bring something new to the franchise
    Alan Taylor's take in Genesys felt cheap, as if he was doing only what he was paid to do
    And Tim Miller's take on Dark Fate had potential. At least he wasn't being a director for hire like Taylir. The effects felt more organic, but because of the bad script, Miller wasn't able to reach its full potential

    The closed loop "canon" timeline is:
    The Terminator
    T2: Assembly Line - teaser trailer
    T2: Judgement Day - directors cut
    Terminator 3D: Battle Across Time
    Terminator: Resistance
    Anything outside of this loop is considered an alternate timeline.

    31:25 I 100% Agree with this:
    Genysis *could* have implied it continues sometime after Salvation. John & Kyle are older, look different and now everybody has upgraded to plasma guns. It's plausable. Buuuuut, annoyingly, the *one* detail that stops Genysis from being the final installment of the meddled timeline we've been following since T1, is the fact they retconned Kyle meeting John, that was finally shown in Salvation. Instead of simply recreating teenage Kyle going up an elevator shaft and meeting John, without the need for additional context, it's reestablished, Kyle meets John at a far younger age, with the war being far more technologically advanced and under different circumstances. It's like Genysis Rebooted the timeline...Before sending Reese back to the Rebooted timeline. They could've had their cake and eaten it to, had us watch T1-Salvation and waved the declining story goodbye as we reset. Instead it reset...Then reset again ha!

      He directed a few episodes, but the show as a whole happened because of him. A lot of episodes were made by the VFX studio he built, and he knows how the VFX industry works, so much that the episodes were directed by VFX artists.
      Sonic The Hedgehog movies for instance, was directed by his friend Jeff Fowler, who wrote one of the LDR episodes
      In Dark Fate, however, the movie had as much practical effects as it had CGI, so it was a challenge for him to get every VFX shot right.

    I suggest reading the books by s.m Stirling, they continue on from the end of t2 and explain how skynet was still able to be built even after miles died, his progeams wiped and the tech from the future destroyed, how the Terminator knew where to find John when he killed him as a kid, why jhone and sarah had leave each other before the events of t3 and also how she died, it also explains more in detail about the half human half machine hybrids like the guy from salvations, why Arnold or at least the character that he played was picked as the face of the machines, and also it explains the whole skynet suddenly being rebraded as genasis or whatever it is in dark fate
    I think theres 3 or 4 books in the series and they are well worth reading as they add so much to the overall story and fill in a lot of the missing unexplained gaps/events from the movie's

    Just realised that Terminator Dark Fate didnt have to kill John to have this new AI as a threat. Considering that this is the same timeline as T2 the rise of a new AI instead of Skynet shows that that time loop is gone and John can live a normal life. This movie could have given us a new take on John Connor or heck make it so that due to the events of the Dark Fate movie(for a sequel hook) he survives because he would have died without Legion time travel shenanigans so Legion now has to worry about both John Connor and Dani as existential threats.

    Funfact about how much Dark Fate bombed:
    There is a pretty good Terminator RTS that came out this year called "Terminator: Dark Fate - Defiance" (It's not really related to the movie outside of having Legion instead of SkyNet.)
    The reason they did this is because apparently (devs are pretty open about this on their discord) it was actually cheaper to license Dark Fate's continuity for a video game instead of "mainline" Terminator and it also means they had less IP holder oversight.

    1. Terminator Rise of the Machines-Kyle Reese and John Connor meet and teaches John how to fight. The tone would be very depressing and a sense of dread and sadness
    2. Terminator Redemption- Show how John and Kyle are brothers in the war and have a few Sarah Conner mentions(the picture would be perfect) Kyle goes back in time so does a T800. Basically the beginning of Terminator Genysis
    3. Terminator Salvation- we see how advanced the machines become since a T800 was left in the 80s and we see the resistance capture a T800 to send in the 90s and the franchise can end since T2 stopped the war

    In terms of Sequels to Judgement day I recommend reading CYBERNETIC DAWN. It also delves into the idea of Skynet returning but unlike the sequel films, it elaborates more as to why. Part of Sarah’s arc in the comic is realizing that humans might’ve sealed their own fate due to their constant need for control and war which is what leads to the development of Skynet. Here’s a link to the comic
