I've never even watched the films.

Absolutely unacceptable.

- We need an O'Terminator to hunt down this woman and make her watch them.

  Regular Terminator: AFFIRMATIVE.
  
  New, improved, Irish O'Terminator: TOP OF THE MORNING, LADS.

- The only terminator movies worth watching were made before she was born.

  Luckily we have this nifty technology that allows you to watch movies that came out years ago. It's called "time travel".

  Imagine how cool would be if there was a way to see movies after they were released on cinemas.

  There are only two terminator movies worth watching.

- no shit, at least the first 2. my kids 9 and we've seen them all and watch 2 regularly. looks like it was filmed last year it's so good.

- Wouldn’t her knowing what she needs to do damage the timeline?

- Tbf, I would not watch a movie retelling my traumatic experience.

- Only half of the first film?

Sarah O'Connor's inbox after tweeting this:

Did a robot kill a worker, or did someone improperly bypass a safety system and get themselves killed? If it has the name "robot" the human interactions should be limited and strictly defined.

- Robots don’t kill people, people kill people.
  
  Also you forgot the more likely scenario of, someone in charge made someone below them do something unsafe and got them killed.

  Gotta cut those corners to maximize value for the shareholders! Employee death is just the cost of doing business.

- That's just my 136-axis electrical hammer, officer!

What human being has never watched Terminator? I'm guessing Sarah O'Connor is probably a Skynet ambassador who was bragging about their first confirmed kill.

- Nobody's exposed to everything. I've never watched A Christmas Story and I don't care to. I've never watched Back to the Future either, though it's been on TV while I wasn't paying attention. I'd watch those three though if I had someone to watch them with. I did however finally watch It's a Wonderful Life for the first time last Christmas. Except for some of the angel stuff, it's held up really well, and it had a really positive impact on me.

  It's a Wonderful Life is an amazing movie. I still watch it every few years at Christmas time.
  
  Back to the Future is fun. The whole series is fun. Idk how well it has held up since I haven't seen it in a long time, but as a kid they were a hoot. Watch them with a kid if you have any kids in your life.

- I haven't watched it 😛

  Sure thing T_100.

- Most people who were of movie going age when the third one came out. Would you go back and watch the first two if your first exposure to the series was Rise of the Machines?

  That's actually exactly what happened to me lmao.
  
  First terminator I watched was 3 and it made me want to watch the rest because I like it so much.

  I'd say 3 was the tipping point where it still managed to grab some new fans, despite being the worst of the first 3.
  
  The films that followed though, I get why no one was getting hooked in

- gen z and alpha

- While I believe I have seen terminator 2, dunno about 1, but there are a ton of movies people think everyone has seen or should see that I have not. Some I even own (like Iron Giant).

- I haven't

- I’ve never watched Terminator. I like sci-fi generally (The Fifth Element is one of my favourite films) but I don’t know… it just never appealed to me. A lot of shooting and chasing and emoting I’m guessing? And Arnie. Not my cup of tea.

  Arnold only has like 5 lines in the entire movie, but he's still an iconic, imposing, character.

I had an idea for a parody where the Terminator is sent to kill the dude who will become the leader of human resistance, with the twist that Arnie is sent by the humans because turns out the guy sucks as a leader.

- I think you might like the show "Future Man." It's sorta like that.

  That was a pretty fun show.

I don't get it, because I don't watch films either

- Sarah Connor is the lead protagonist in the first Terminator movie. The terminator is a robot sent back to the past to kill Sarah, as she will lead the rebellion against the robots in the future.

  Hate (love) to be that guy, but the terminator hunts her because she will give birth to her son, who is the rebel leader in the future. With the father being the time traveler soldier sent to protect her from the terminator.

- You should watch Terminator 2. The first movie is optional. The second is one of several reasons James Cameron gets to do whatever the hell he wants.
  
  3
  
  I much prefer the first. I'd say watch the first, any other are optional.
  
  4
  
  The first movie is hella better as it is a cyberhorror movie at its core. The second movie is not as good in any capacity.

This is an old meme but it still checks out.

I find that unlikely.
