Topic	Why do they keep making Terminator movies?

Hey now, seeing terminators trying to kill George Washington and Ben Franklin would be pretty cool. Especially when Franklin saves the day by getting one struck by lightning with his kite. Though to be honest, it makes sense why Skynet doesn't send more terminators back even farther in time. If you're trying to alter the future, you have to be careful to not retcon yourself out of existence. Skynet is basically trying to kill the resistance while simultaneously not changing the past so much that it's never invented in the first place. Though the fact that the series doesn't seem to be able to decide whether or not it wants it to be possible to legitimately change the future or if fate is inevitable kind of shits all over whatever story you want to do regardless. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:952593985] in Why do the...
