Seemed fairly obvious to me, seeing the state Sarah was in at the start of the film, but if you prefer to have every little thing spelled out…
Yes, because Cameron is such a subtle and understated writer.

Much better. I can get behind this phrase now.
No, Commando still fits. Is River an Arnold, Patrick or Kristanna-type Terminator?
Looks like Arnold type.
I didn´t like the pilot. I thought it looked Cheap and was poorly directed.
And Summer Glau is waaay to small to be playing a terminator. I don´t buy it.
oh, and it felt like the pilot was trying too hard to show us it was a terminator show.
It kept making small and “subtle” references to the movies, or repeating dialogues or action scenes.
The Baddie terminator was lame as well.
We´ll see if it improves, i´ll give it a couple of episodes.
Oh and the ending of the pilot???
3 people traveling in time at the same time?
wasn´t it supposed to be only 1 person traveling ALONE ?

Actually there’s no limit to the No of people, just that no dead matter can be taken along with it.
You are correct, i just glanced through Terminator´s script and found no reference to having to travel alone.
I fact Reese mentions that they were 2 of them, and “summer didn´t make it”

Not to mention ‘River Terminator’ says Judgment Day is in April 2011, whereas T3’s is July 2004. |
I haven’t seen the pilot, but what I heard was is that in the first episode, they completely re-fuck the continuity with some more time travel bullshit.
Yeah, it’s a bit strange. What ends up happening is:
(SPOILER) Sarah, John, and the female Terminator – Cameron? – step through a time portal and end up in 2007 (the show begins in 1999). The episode ends with Sarah fortifying the apartment they’re staying in as the Terminator theme finally kicks up on the soundtrack. (END SPOILER)

Furlong is awful because he was not an actor and he has some terrible lines to say and can not pull them off.
The casting director found him playing basketball at some boys club event. Why that was criteria for him to be in T2 is beyond me.

Agreed. They should have taken a page from Timerider, the best time travel film of all time.

Well he filmed it, didn’t he? What did you think he meant?
You´ll always be a star on his book!
