Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show, I’m your host Deffinition and you’re now locked into the channel where we break down all the latest movies, big game releases, tv shows and comic books.

This episode we’re gonna be going over why a big aspect of the opening of Terminator Dark Fate ruined the entire franchise, didn’t make sense and was one of the worst things to happen in the entirety of human history

Why John Connor’s Death Ruined Everything

Anyway you’re probably also thinking, this guy loves the smell of his own farts…which may be true but also, I have a lot of love for the Terminator franchise. I’ve bought T2 on VHS, DVD, Blu Ray, Then The Blu Ray Ultimate Cut then the 4k transfer that makes everyone look like playdoe.

Everything about that film is amazing, the effects still hold up, the action is none stop and the ending doesn’t leave a dry eye in the house. So, naturally when I heard that Terminator Dark Fate was going to be a direct sequel to Terminator 2 I was pretty stoked. This was a chance to write the wrongs of the past and finally get the franchise back to being one of the best as like Alien, Predator and others, it had fallen by the wayside a bit due to middling to poor sequels.

Here was me, wide eyed going into the cinema, about to receive the biggest slap in the face since the doctor mistook it for my arse when I was born and within five minutes of the movie, the love that I’d had for the franchise my entire life. The anticipation that I’d had since 1991 was gone, replaced with a gut punch that felt pointless, unceremonious and universe ruining.

Let me set the scene, John Connor, the saviour of mankind and his mother have finally defeated Skynet. The evil robots from the future that have hunted them for what seems like an eternity, they are finally relaxing and then out of nowhere, out the blue, a 400 pound machine walks up, shoots John and then doddles off to go and get a girlfriend for some reason.

I was pretty shocked, but not in a good way and I think my major problem with the film is that in this opening, not only does it make the prior two entries completely pointless, but it also replaces these characters with a rebranded skynet and people that we don’t care about.

So, let’s get this straight, if John Connor is dead then the first two films are now complete wastes of time. Now I have seen some people say ‘well they weren’t because they still managed to stop Skynet.’ Ok, well that’s cool but then Legion still rose up anyway so that was completely pointless and humanity are just doomed to a Dark Fate and thus yeah, waste of time.

The entire message behind the first two films is that there was no fate but it seems like whatever way you slice it this war will always happen one way or another and thus there’s now no need to get invested in the storyline as even if the saviour of humanity manages to stop the machines, they will just rebrand, change their name to something else and pop up in ten years time.

Basically what this movie does in it’s opening five minutes is render T1 and T2 completely pointless and it also ruins the character arcs going forward for the forseeable future. If the saviour of mankind can be killed and another one can just take their place then there is no reason at all to get invested in Dani Ramos, who, from what I saw of her didn’t do that much anyway other than create the real life version of a whatsapp group.

If John died then there is no true, quote unquote saviour and there is no need to protect Dani as if she dies then who cares, someone else will be in the future and they can do the work.
