Both out at around the same time and both far fetched with a time travel theme. My question is. If the storyline in one of these movies was to happen in real life. What one would have more chance of happening?

Iceman would probably come closest
Terminator :P
I'd rather have an intelligent enemy than a stupid friend
Terminator. A frozen living body was never found until yet because it is just impossible (on a natural way).
On the other side machines/cpus are getting better and better...and it is only a matter of time until they reach technological singularity.
technological singularity. Cmon man.

I seriously doubt that time travel into the past is possible so I'll say that Iceman is the more realistic. I also doubt that a person could be frozen and revived in non laboratory conditions but that seems the smaller hurdle.

Never go in against a Fanboy, when death is on the line! Haha hahaha, haha HA...
I'm pretty scientifically literate. I would say Terminator is more realistic.
-We don't know if time travel into the past is possible, so you can't use that argument, since in Terminator, he is from the future. (It could be that barely anyone is able to time-travel for some reason, explaining why there aren't *beep* of time-tourists right now.)
-When a body freezes to temperatures of frozen ice, cells release toxins, killing themselves and all tissue. Reviving that body would be around as impossible as time-travel. However, since we don't know "how impossible" time-travel is, I can't say which is more unlikely.
-That bald guy has some stupid pseudo-scientific lines, like "His cells are synthesizing DNA!!" which doesn't make any real sense in his context.
SMOKE WEED!!!!!!!!
We don't know if travelling "back in time" as if life's existence is like some movie being laid out that can be jumped back in to "in some other dimension" is a complete joke of reality. Sorry, just true... scientifically.
Just because a concept built in storybook belief hasn't been disproved... Well, that's a lot like the argument for religion.

Here's what a frozen, 40,000 year old baby mammoth looks like:

And here's the famous "ice man", a 5,000 year old frozen man, in excellent condition:

I hope that sobers your ideas of what frozen corpses are actually like.
So yeah, I think Terminator is more plausible, even though time travel is outside the realm of established physics.
Neither is realistic, I think. By default though, Terminator is more realistic.
The reason is simple. If there were frozen men who could be revived, we would have found one/many by now. So it's not going to happen because we've learned it's not possible.
I don't believe that time travel into the past will ever become possible either. A physicist could explain this better, but the past is something that happens, never to be returned to again. Fiction makes us imagine that it somehow might be possible to travel through time, but I really think it just can never happen.
Nevertheless, because Terminator is based on a possibility of something that could happen in the future, this means we can't say it's impossible with the same certainty as we can with Iceman.
Did any of ya'll see the movie? He ate buttercups which coated his cells throughout his body and preserved him.
So in other words....
Time travel isn't plausible. If it was we would already know it cause someone would have already visited us from the future. Also Einstein stated that a photon has a fraction of mass. If a 150 pound human was moving at 186,000 miles per second he/she would weigh more then the universe itself - Einstein. Not his exact words but pretty close. As we know it today the closer you get to the speed of light the more time slows down. So the only way I see Humans or any other advanced civilization moving at or faster then the speed of light is to shrink down to as small or smaller then a photon and then back to regular size when you meet your destination.
We now know that certain cells die quickly(skin cells) and certain cells live many years(brain neurons). Actually I think brain neurons never die unless messed with by accident or disease. So it's plausible that there could be certain chemicals on our planet that our naturally occurring and could coat or alter all cells in the body to be like brain neurons.
Both are as impossible as each other, its very logical. Time travel backwards through time is basically completely improbable. There is simply no way of traveling backwards in time. However, it is very plausible and scientifically provable, to travel forwards in time.
But Im afraid to say that even the Iceman is just as improbable as traveling onto the past. But, hey, both make for great movies! Hence way they are both classed as science "fiction"!
The straight-faced responses claiming The Terminator is more realistic make me despair for humanity.
