No apology needed. I think you explained yourself fine.

I too thought that the explanation of Skynet being software across the internet was cool, and I do realize that it was skynet that was responsible for Judgment day and not the Terminators seeing as that they were just the army. The problem is that in T3 they do say that there was no stopping Judgment day. Even in the epilogue voice-over by Nick Stahl, he says "We were never meant to stop Judgment day..." Huh? Since when? What was the point of fighting all this time if we couldn't stop it?

The other thing that bothered me was the lame death they gave to Sarah Conner. They go from having hope at the end of Terminator 2 to her being dead and making provisions for John for when Judgment day came, i.e. leaving weapons in her grave.

There are just so many things that are confusing...if old John Conner is killed in the future, then what purpose is there for another Terminator to go back in time and try to kill him then? Apparently the beginning shot of Nick as old John Conner was before he was killed, and the shot shows human victory. I don't know if this victory is a small one, or the ultimate. If humanity has finally won in that scene, what does John's death mean for the human race?

fanboy - I think for your edit that it is important to include at least part of the Sgt. Candy deleted scene. In the beginning it explains that the government bought or acquired this technology from Cyberdine somehow. I remember watching the movie wondering how we went from Cyberdine being the creator of Skynet to this government program. That scene explains. So, please include this scene.

That's all for now.
