but instead it keeps throwing him around. Silly Terminator.

It is? I thought it was real life!
shareYes, we know.
Honestly, idiots say that.
We are in a DISCUSSION forum for DISCUSSING. Why come here at all if you're just going to say that?
It's just a movie.
They really missed the mark what a Terminator really is. In T1, the T-800 would kill off its victims the first chance it got, in this one it more or less "played" around with its victim. The T-800 was utterly useless in Salvation.
o/~ Farewell and adiou to you fair Spanish ladies, farewell and adiou to you ladies of Spain o/~
Yet in T1 the T-800 didn't kill off either of its targets and it had many chances. KR essentially committed suicide to protect SC so you can't say it killed him directly; it didn't terminate SC either, instead she terminated it!
A "little ol' girl", terminated the T-800 in T1! I guess "getting killed by a girl" is much more useful than the one in TS, eh?
Fact is both of them can be considered "useless" in terms of actually accomplishing their missions or even meeting any mission goals. Neither of them did, unless we consider getting blown up and crushed in the Cyberdyne plant and thereby causing the existence of Skynet in the first place accomplishment (which it may well be).
Both T-800s took heavy amounts of punishment before being terminated, both dealt a lot of damage and destruction, both ended up being terminated by its targets. It's just the T-800 in TS did all this in a much shorter time frame. That doesn't make it any more or less useless than the T-800 in T1.
^this. I went back and watched The Terminator. Terminators have been toying with their victims in every movie. The scene where it does nothing while Reese hits it the head is kind of stupid.
Get on the scale son! Get off the scale.

Yep - a dumb movie indeed
shareIn every terminator movie when the T800 doesn't have a weapon it throws people around. In the first movie he throws around Sarah's friends boyfriend, in the second movie he throws around those couple of bikers and when he fights other terminators unarmed they seem to throw each other around into stuff

I expected the Arnold T 800 to use the weapon after he ripped the other terminator in half. He's done that in other scenes.
shareAlways that dumbass argument.
The Terminator in T1 could easily come behind and snap Sarah Connor's neck in the club.

"I'm going to place him in an easily escapable situation involving an overly elaborate and exotic death."
shareWe all know (as do you) the T800's throwing around battle is just a device to keep John alive so he can revive Marcus, then we can see him battle the T800.
I would have felt cheated if that fight never happened.
You need to remember the rules.
Before you kill your target, you need cloth, boots, and a motorcycle. ;)
