Hey Shirleytemple85
Calling out Millsey72
Fk this pile of trash!
What a stupid fucking movie
This movie sucks..
The only thing that I hate about this movie now..
Time to reflect if my opinion on this movie changed over the years.
How can anyone enjoy these constant cancer infected films?

You're really reaching for straws with this topic. Switching spots in a swat van would require them to stop the van otherwise it's more dangerous and they could easily lose control of it. They could close the door but then what? Wait for the T-1000 to just keep shooting the vehicle until it eventually would be damaged far too much to drive, or just slam the brakes and wait for it to crash into the vehicle? It's simply an action scene and I commented on this already; slamming the brakes and close the door would be a pretty boring scene, any movie throws some logic out the window for the sake of entertaining the audience. So trying to nitpick this is pretty pointless and no a swat van door is not fully bullet proof. Depends on the rounds maybe a .22 or 9mm wouldn't penetrate much but any other caliber could.
It's not exactly making bad decisions. The terminator was the only one capable of stealing the swat van, once they escaped the Terminator wanted to gain as much distance from there as possible. It's not like they had time to stop and switch spots. The T-1000 was on them, at that point why stop the van and be a sitting duck for the T-1000. They didn't exactly have the time on their side with everything going on.
In response to Metatron: You can't read any topic on here without him tainting every thread stating how Geneysis is better than the classic Terminator films. I don't care if it's his "opinion" he screams troll or needs to stop huffing paint fumes everyday. I don't really care what you think.

Kyle acquiring the shotgun is more of a stretch than getting money. He had all night when he first arrived to get money who knows what he did. Rob someone? Not that far fetched he's already wanted by law at this point.
I seriously hope millsey is just a troll. Anyone that can like the newer sequels over the classic ones doesn't have the elevator ride all the way upstairs. Hell it doesn't even leave the goddamn lobby.
I will have to re watch Robocop and check out the scene with ED-209 fighting it, I remember it fired a missile and hit one of the walls but even if Robo was hit by one, we are talking about one hit correct? And it was already damaged by that hit alone, we can't assume the cobra cannon was less powerful or more since they were fake weapons and whatever explosive rounds they had don't really exist. In any event I'm sure if the terminator took a few hits from the ED-209's guns, or missiles it would still keep going. This is assuming the T-800 still has it's skin over the skeleton to absorb some of the damage, but I didn't try to turn this into a Terminator vs Robocop topic so we can agree to disagree or not that Robo and T-800 are equals lol
As to the original question why couldn't Reese deal with the Terminator? Is it not obvious? He doesn't have access to military weaponry, and the Terminator can easily kill him if it's armed up the teeth with weapons of it's own.
Since when was ED armed with .50 caliber rounds? If that was the case Kinney would've been splattered in pieces by the amount of shots he took. I doubt they were 9mm but .50 caliber is a long stretch. When was Robo hit by the cobra cannon I must've missed that. They missed him with every shot from what I saw. Also let's not compare the later Terminator sequels to the same rules as Robocop, cause the first two real terminator films would be the true terminator franchise. I don't count any of the later ones and I doubt the T-800's head would blow off from a .50 caliber in the true terminator films, but lets go with that logic. If that was the case how did Mr. Kinney take 200 shots from .50 caliber and not have his body splattered in pieces. Just saying what I have observed. It's obvious to me ED was not armed with .50 cal.
This is a joke. Robocop was nearly defeated by the swat force, had it took one hit from the cobra assault cannon it would've been good night. Considering the terminator can function with half it's body blown in half, survive a tanker truck explosion. I doubt robocop would have survived that, sure if the terminator was unarmed in Robo's world enough hoodlums could take it down but so would Robocop as evidenced when it couldn't return fire against the swat team. I like both franchises equal but robocop loses if it goes up against a T-800.
I wouldn't consider this a plot hole. The inside of the ship was more warmer than outside, granted they eventually went outside to try to find a lifeboat at that point they would be freezing being soaked from water, but when adrenaline and surviving instincts kicks in you'd be surprised what the body can fight.
