Two kinds of machine horror: "Terminator Gaiden" Season 1 6

This new episode has surpassed the expectations of a science fiction fan. After all, when even HERO couldn't understand it, after all, when the screenwriters were in panic. The episode left too many doubts, Reese stopped abruptly after being dragged into the basement, and everything was over when he came out. This part left a great foreshadowing. The second foreshadowing was when Reese was called to the secret room by John. What did they say and what mission did they have? And this key part is also skipped, and the next step is for them to enter the time machine. Other details are varied, showing that the screenwriter’s intentions are not only the fate of individual characters in this series, but also the ambition of explaining the entire Terminator series. In fact, you can see in the previous episodes. In this episode, the screenwriter is not just playing some effects, it is not bad to engage in robot wars, but this will surely disappoint most movie fans. In fact, many topics have been discussed in the current story, and the delicate part of the emotional relationship between the characters has also been carefully handled.

Diablo oppression

Why do so many movies depict the world of machines? The logic of the machine...they are tired of human self-destruction...they themselves want to dominate the world. There is no doubt that robots are portrayed as powerful in these movies. In addition to the huge disparity in power, people have hope and despair, all of which make human sex very fragile. The storytellers are fascinated by this. I think "Battlestar" has brought human fatigue to the extreme. The mysterious house in this episode of "Terminator Gaiden" is very similar to the two horror classics of Freddy and Jason. Both Freddy and Jason are immortal and are deadly enemies of humans. It can be seen that science fiction and Terror comes to the same end by different routes. I think the description of this paragraph is very realistic, robots will not repair their base, because aesthetics is the consciousness of talents, and what he wants is a small dilapidated house. For the audience, there is a special deterrent effect. There is no ritualized escort process and no dialogue, which is more broken and compresses people's psychological space. Just like when the reporter from Phoenix stood on the ruins of the World Trade Center, the people had been destroyed by the momentum, and they couldn't cry. Of course, this may be a continuation of the style set by Cameron in the first episode of the movie in 1984, and everyone should remember the opening few minutes.

Love is colder than death

"Battlestar" is another robot war. Even if we don't talk about it publicly, everyone in their hearts must think that this war is hopeless. Needless to say, the power of robots, the key is that their lives are not terminated, and human combatants have been downsizing. "Battlestar" explores the difference between the consciousness of humans and machines at the top of air combat, whether the robot is bored and hesitated in the alternation of aiming and shooting at the moment of determining life and death. Undoubtedly, death is the key to war, and human beings are full of loopholes. The extreme horror of death brings poetry under the shadow of this drama, pain, despair, and psychedelic mixed. At the end of the third season, BOB DYLAN’s All Along The Watchtower sounded. When everyone walked into the cabin by appointment, the captain was repaired, there was Colonel Tai, all the others...who am I? My legitimacy as an independent conscious individual has been lost. This is the beginning of endless horror.

I think "Terminator Gaiden" must refer to "World War", and "Battlestar" must also refer to the "Terminator" series. From the prototype, the robot warfare in Battlestar is similar to the "MATRIX" animation series, and most resembles the "Terminator". The word Skynet is particularly reminiscent of MATRIX, the matrix matrix. This has nothing to do with originality, it is just a cultural penetration and continuation of science fiction fans. One thing is certain, these fantasy creators of stories are obsessed with the system, building the system and overthrowing the system, obsessed with the power in it, and put people as an indicator, this power is even more ambiguous and moving.
