Prequels are very hard to do right. Terminator is a special case, because time travel limits the interesting time span for the story if you don't keep erasing the previous movies plot. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ampersandrew@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 child) Even Terminator 2 changed the time travel rules established in the first movie, but at least it felt like its ideas were still original. And I didn't even mind Terminator 3. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Nibodhika@lemmy.world 1 point 2 months ago THANK YOU, I always feel I'm the only one who acknowledges that. Don't get me wrong, I like T2, but it completely broke what was established in T1. I do understand why, you can only do that twist once, after the audience knows time is a loop you can't add meaningful stories because there are no stakes. But it's still annoying, that they undid one of the major things of the first movie. permalink fedilink source parent
