The Salvation Updates.............







So here it is....more Salvation updates from the TerminatorFiles .....the lineup of machines have been more or less confirmed and seem impressive, though some aspects of it still don't make sense.

A Termicycle???! I wonder how that one's gonna work...a quad or even a trike would make sense, but how the heck is this gonna balance itself should it stop moving? Balance is dependant on motion for a two-wheeler, and whether its AI powered or not, I don't think the laws of Physics are gonna dictate otherwise. Regardless, I hope they crank up the juice a li'l on this one with some shit-blowing firepower.

And we are back on this page with more updates on the T-600. Everyone's anticipating this one, but should the released footage be right and McG be taken seriously, we are looking at an 8-feet tall walking Panzer-tank wannabe behemoth, hardly an infiltrator. How can u possibly pass something of that kinda size off for human?? And I don't see the need for having rubber skins over that endo, since noone in the Resistance would buy that shit anyway. Just stick to the endos McG and it'll be realistic. I wonder how those dudes in the Resistance would react anyway if one of these comes up against them. I'd piss in my pants for sure. Not forgetting the mini-gun that it wields around 24/7. Recall Columbu in T1 and the near-annihiliation of one Resistance Camp. The 600 was relentless and unstoppable in that one scene and novelization of that scene dictates that it was never stopped at all! Freaky mo-fo. If you don't recall the first movie well, just check out the scene I've uploaded below. Scenes like this really differentiated the first and second instalments..the first being extremely dark, on par with a psycho-thriller/horror flick and the 2nd being kiddo-friendly a la TMNT style.

I am on the hunt for better footage on the HKs and aerostats. Will put these up as soon as I acquire them.

And so whats the scoop on Kickinger? Thats been subject to plenty of debates as well, Well, for the record, I guess there is a universal consensus amongst the Terminator fandom that Kickinger will be essaying the 800, though opinions are divided as to whether it was the very same machine that tracked Sarah in T1 or just another one off the assembly line (college room-mate as Uncle Bob would have it in T2 3D). We might have another revival of the Ah-nuld days with Kickinger. Lets not forget that Ah-nuld was a nobody till he played the 800 in the first movie. Kickinger's career is bound to take off with this one.

More updates as and when I get them :)

*peace*
