Okay, but you realize Skynet losing makes no sense within the causality of those movies, right?

well, i mean, they're movies, they run on narrative causality but i'm not hung up on winning, it'll all be 0K in the end

hehe I mean the abilities the Skynet super AI has in the movies clearly lead to the paperclip catastrophe scenario. You have to reject some of the premises established in the story to have mankind's triumph make sense.

does mankind ever actually triumph? i honestly kind of lost track but it seemed like each win just twiddled the timeline so people were getting wiped out like ten years later

Good point. But the initial failure to kill us all doesn't seem plausible given Skynet's abilities.

The final Terminator movie will reveal Skynet as a benevolent AI which has been toughening up the human race for its own good, the Mr Miyagi to our Karate Kid.

this actually would be fucking amazing, if the alien invasion force that Skynet detected in SETI data shows up and now it's time for the humans and machines to fight side by side
