Correct.

Cameron isn't necessarily canon either. The correct formula is C=T1+T2. Dark Fate was an embarrassment, a failed hypothesis.

Terminator 3 is the Alien 3 of the franchise.

reply

[–] LoveCatsHateDogs (1535) 3 years ago

More like the Alien:Resurrection.

[–] Cognoscente (2463) 3 years ago

Nah, for me that would be Dark Fate whereas Genisys was Alien: Covenant - a shameless retread.

[–] Karl Aksel (1451) 2 years ago

Dark Fate wasn't a shameless retread?

[–] Cognoscente (2463) 2 years ago

At least they tried to be less obvious in how they went about it.

reply

[–] Karl Aksel (1451) 2 years ago

I thought it was the most obvious re-thread to date. At least Genisys tried something different.

Mark Kermode put it best...

T3 = A3
T4 = Alien Resurrection
T5 = Prometheus
T6 = Covenant (or if there'd been Blomkamp Alien 5)

Τ2 takes place in the fall of 1995 he was 10-11 it's a movie mistake.They mixed up Edward Furlong's real age in 1990 (13)

Yep. That said, I love T3.

[–] avigalidou (602) 2 years ago

I love it too aged well

Also they showed Sarah Connor's tomb stating she died in 1995, that would've made John only 12 at that time.

reply

[–] ADBruno1985 (3304) 2 years ago

13, which was also Furlong's age during filming

reply

[–] actionkamen (23176) 2 years ago

He was playing a 10yo character. The real age of the actor is irrelevant to the story.

reply

[–] ADBruno1985 (3304) 2 years ago

To an extent. There's a lot more difference between 10 and 13 v 30 and 33, so they would probably try to cast a bit closer

reply

[–] cbsteven (212) 2 years ago

Exactly. A strange line. Probably put in to help the 'first kiss' and hooking up that John said could've happened between them. 13 would be more believable than 10.
