Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines | comment |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003) is the third film in the Terminator franchise. It is the first film in the series to be directed by someone other than James Cameron, director Jonathan Mostow.In the aftermath of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, the Connors appear to have prevented SkyNet's takeover: the date Reese cited for Judgment Day has come and gone, and an adult John Connor lives off the grid to make sure no one (including Terminators) can track him down. But out of the blue, another shapeshifting Terminator, a T-X Model with a female appearance, shows up to carry out a specific mission: kill John Connor and as many of his future Resistance lieutenants as possible. A T-850 Model Terminator (functionally similar to the T-800, but with a few minor upgrades), reprogrammed to protect John Connor, also shows up.John, who resents everything about what his late mother Sarah told him about the future and raised him to become, eventually returns to the fight alongside his reluctant ally Kate Brewster and the T-850, to once again stop Judgment Day and save the human race.The film was followed by Terminator Salvation. | |

Stop, or I Shoot Myself!: John Connor tries this against the Terminator sent to protect him. The Terminator deduces from his vitals and body language that he's probably bluffing. Before either side has to reveal their hand, Kate gets the Terminator to comply. | |

All There in the Manual | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: In the novelisation: John can disassemble, clean, repair, reassemble, and fire more than 12 dozen different types of weapons, explosives and even light antitank weapons and the Stinger surface-to-air missile. He can also calculate the blast radius damage for various plastic explosives. When the T-X emerges from the wreckage of the crane, there are witnesses too shocked to stop her. She hotwires a car and then heads for Kate's house where she murders Scott. Although we never see his murder, the book tells us she thrusts her hand deep into his chest destroying his heart. He doesn't even get the chance to scream, but he does in the film. She also fastidiously cleans his blood off her hand. At the gas station we learn that the Terminator selects beef jerky for protein; potato chips for carbohydrates; cookies, ice cream bars, and Twinkies for sugar; and bottled water for hydration. The sunglasses that he gets are Sama wraparounds. General Robert Brewster knows Skynet's designed to think for itself, and privately muses whether or not it could ever become a threat to humanity, since it can adapt to anything. When the Terminator promises to let Kate go if she tells him where John Connor is, and then he goes back on his word, the novelization tells us that he wasn't really lying; he will let Kate go, just not right now. When the Terminator is blasted back by the T-X, the novelization clarifies that it wasn't unconscious as it seemed in the film, but it was just paralyzed. | |

Mission-Pack Sequel | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_1a2dc1fd | comment |
Mission-Pack Sequel: The movie's main novelty is to feature a female antagonist who is also far more technologically advanced than the original T-800 or even the T-1000, but otherwise has the same basic Terminator Twosome plot as the first two movies. To make up for it, the movie gives a Sudden Downer Ending to its story. | |

All There in the Script | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_222969af | comment |
All There in the Script: The name of the woman the T-X stole her clothes and car from was Nancy Nebel. The woman was also wearing a thong, something else the T-X puts on. The T-X also talks to Nebel's boyfriend over the phone, in Nebel's own voice. She links with the Skynet in this era. The name of the traffic cop who pulls the T-X over is called Barnes, and when he saw how sexy she is, he decided to rip up the ticket and ask her out. The T-X killed him in a parking lot. The T-X gets to Edwards Air Force Base by radioing a police helicopter flying overhead after the altercation at the cemetery. She kills the pilot and flies on ahead. It was probably the same helicopter she crashed at the climax. Skynet's time machine is called the continuum transporter. It was allegedly built at Area 51. It creates an artificial wormhole between two time periods, as long as power isn't an issue. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The whole sequence reintroducing the T-850. "Drop dead, asshole!" "I am unable to comply." "She'll be back." (and later, "I'm back") The return of Dr. Silberman - who is in denial of anything that happened to him involving killing machines until he sees Arnie again. When John Connor enters the animal hospital, he's armed with a BB pistol which is less lethal than a "real" one. This is a reference of him not accepting killing people in any circumstances in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. When the T-850 steals a pickup truck from the Desert Star, he checks the sun visor. But there's just a watch there, so he hotwires the truck. The T-X remarks "I like this car", "I like your gun" etc. before killing people to obtain said items from them. Seems to be a holdover from the T-1000, who would wryly note "that's a nice [x]" before killing someone for it, i.e. "that's a nice bike" before he killed a motorcycle cop off-screen to take his ride. The T-X's death scene is nearly identical to the death of the original Terminator from the first film, complete with the classic line "You are terminated!". After the truck gets wrecked, a passerby tries to see if T-X is okay, but unlike when this happened with the T-1000 in the climax of T2, the guy runs away when he sees T-X's checking her weapons. During the fight in the military base, T-X walks past a bunch of restroom mirrors and briefly turns to look at her reflections with confusion, likely detecting movement in her visual sensors. This is a reference to when the T-1000 did the same thing when it saw a chrome store mannequin resembling itself during the mall fight in T2. | |

Uncertain Doom: Elizabeth Anderson is The Ghost when T-X arrives and shoots her brother, right before heading upstairs looking for Elizabeth. While she likely would have been killed by T-X, the large number of people at the party might have made identification difficult and it's unclear if TX was able to find the right girl and kill her before moving on to the next name on the list (Kate). | |

Everyone Went to School Together | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_292d1ccd | comment |
Everyone Went to School Together: While it wasn't specifically said that all of John Connor's lieutenants went to school with him, it would appear that most of them did. From this we can conclude that the future ran out of professional soldiers and he had to fall back on people he knew for less than a year when he was ten (or thirteen, depending on which film you're watching). One possible explanation is that John rallies survivors he knows in the L.A. area, and they survive long enough to become prominent resistance lieutenants specifically because of John's training and leadership. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_294f1400 | comment |
Abnormal Limb Rotation Range: The T-X can rotate her head, arms and legs 360 degrees. The torso is capable of at least 180-degree rotation, thanks to artificial liquid steel lubrication. Justified because she is a highly advanced Terminator robot whose joints are movable in ways that are impossible for the older endoskeleton-based Terminators. | |

Facial Dialogue: When a running Kate sees what seems to be her fiancee Scott (really the T-X in disguise), she seems relieved and starts running towards "him". But as the T-X starts walking toward her while smiling in satisfaction, Kate notices this and stops running, clearly realizing that something is wrong. And then the T-X transforms back into her default form, including revealing her liquid metal skin and machinery endoskeleton, right before Kate's eyes. Kate can only staring and gaping in horror. | |

Logic Bomb | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_31083edb | comment |
Logic Bomb: When the T-850 gets captured by the T-X and reprogrammed to kill John Connor, Connor saves himself by making the T-850 realize that accomplishing that goal would mean failing its original mission; the logical conflict between the two causes the T-850 to destroy a truck instead of Connor, then shut itself down. He gets better, briefly. | |

No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup: Averted, which is explained in a deleted scene and the novelization. While the Connors were able to destroy everything at the lab in the last film, it turns out Cyberdyne kept copies of all the important notes off-site and when the company went bankrupt, they sold them to the Air Force's research and development branch. | |

Take the Wheel: The Terminator instructs John Connor to take the wheel so that he can perform improvised surgery on himself.

It explodes spectacularly after he throws it out the window. | |

Race Against the Clock: The T-850 opposes John's efforts to avert Judgment Day, due to there just not being sufficient time, but John forces him to comply. They fail. After Skynet is fully activated, the T-850 says the nuclear assault will begin in one hour. John and Kate think the system core is in Crystal Peak and that there's one last chance to save the world, but it's actually a VIP bunker that will protect them from the blasts. The T-850 knew this was the case, as his mission was to protect John and Kate. | |

You Are Too Late: The movie ends with John Connor finding out Skynet has no central server but rather has programming distributed across the entire internet, thus stopping it from becoming self-aware had essentially been impossible for quite a while. The goal is still to stop Skynet, but with half the planet nuked it may take a few more movies. The T-850 sent back to protect him actually knew this but withheld the information to be sure John would come with him, accepting the deaths of much of the planet's population to guarantee the survival of humanity as a whole. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_62f9d08e | comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: When the T-850 is looking at a watch in a car that he just acquired upon first arriving, the time analog quite quickly calculates from the presumed time in which he was sent from (28th October, 2033) and the time that he arrived in and is currently in (24th July, 2004). When the T-850 stabs and electrocutes the T-X whilst locked in her struggle, sparks fly from her onto them, and a brief flash onto the face of the T-850 reveals his red endoskeleton eye. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_62f9ee25 | comment |
Nanomachines: The T-X has nanomachines among the features of her versatile arm, which are used for some Magical Computer effects — the nanobots infect other machines and allow the "Terminatrix" to control them. | |

Dangerous Key Fumble: When the T-X invades the pet store, Kat manages to sneak out and avoid the gunfire. She runs outside to her car, gets inside, and frantically tries putting the key in. But her shaky grip causes her to drop them when she's about to insert them into the keyhole. She leans down to get them back, only to sit up again and notice the T-X already there and staring at her from the driver's window. | |

Of course, many of John Connor's future revolution partners wound up killed before doing so, but this kind of thing comes with time travel. | |

Yes, our heroes live, but Judgment Day just happened, billions of people are dead, the world is a nuclear wasteland, and the Robot War has begun. In fact, the heroes being alive is the only thing that makes it a "Ray of Hope" Ending. | |

Vanity Is Feminine: The T-X (a female "Terminatrix") walks past a mirror while battling the male T-850, and her head immediately whips to the side for as long as she's reflected in it. There was no reason offered for why she'd do this in the middle of a fight (aside from the obvious point of this trope) and it happens so fast that many viewers likely missed it. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_958a7bef | comment |
Layman's Terms: While explaining to John the features of the T-X, the T-850 mentions as an example that she has nanotechnological transjectors. John is confused and asks for more explanation, to which the T-850 simply says, "It can control other machines." | |

A-Team Firing | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_964ea66c | comment |
A-Team Firing: "Bullets fired: 999. Human casualties: 0." Echoing a scene in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, where John orders the Terminator to not kill anyone. Which leads to a scene where the Terminator fights off a small army of police with a Minigun, firing thousands of rounds and killing no one. The Terminator could have easily killed quite a few people, but he deliberately aimed to miss. | |

Safe Zone Hope Spot: Inverted, as the T-850 tricks John into thinking that they're going to Skynet's core to stop Judgment Day. Instead the T-850 is taking him to a hardened bunker so John can survive Judgment Day and lead the resistance. It still serves as a Hope Spot and leads to a depressing ending. | |

Foreshadowing: See I Cannot Self-Terminate below. The Terminator responds to Kate's request because she's actually authorized to give him commands. As the T-850 explains that there's no known way to take down the T-X, he's removing one of his fuel cells and it explodes, after he had just explained that his fuel cells are highly explosive when ruptured. | |

Neverending Terror: After the events of the second film and the death of his mother Sarah, John has been living off the grid for years, even though he hopes that their actions in the last movie have prevented Judgment Day and the machine uprising. Unfortunately for him, it didn't work and the machines send yet another Terminator to find him. Fortunately for him, because he's been living off the grid, it can't find him easily. | |

Before fleeing, he takes a moment to look at this cybernetic hand and looks overwhelmed with fear and despair. | |

Shortly after the events of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, she was diagnosed with leukemia and given six months, but lived for years, long enough to see August 29, 1997 come and go without incident. That said, she was still Properly Paranoid enough that her casket was loaded with weapons (Sarah herself had actually been cremated). | |

Upgrade vs. Prototype Fight: The T-X is the newest, most advanced model Skynet has sent back, and while the T-850 is slightly more advanced than the T-800 of the previous films it is still outclassed. But the film does introduce the T-1, the first generation "Terminator" with a semi-humanoid upper body, gatling gun appendages, and tank treads. The T-850 easily slips behind one and uses its own gatling gun to disable another. | |

Series Continuity Error | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: The Terminator refers to itself as a "T-101". There's no such thing as a T-101. He's internally an 800-series terminator. Arnie's external appearance is a Cyberdyne Systems Model 101. His official name is a Cyberdyne Systems Series 850, Model 101, or T-850 Model 101 for short. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_ce75a983 | comment |
Screw Destiny: Unlike the second movie, this one completely ignores the trope's message and goes right back to You Can't Fight Fate (though John Connor does try to invoke this trope by name at least once). Terminator 2 was itself an instance of ignoring the You Can't Fight Fate message of the first film, so this movie merely reinstated the latter's original envisioning of the future predicted by it. | |

All Part of the Show: When the nude T-850 goes into the nearest bar looking for suitable clothes, it happens to have all women patrons for ladies night, and they all are excited at the sight of him and think that he's a stripper for the show. And when a male performer comes onstage with matching clothing for the Terminator, the T-850 goes up to him and asks him to take off his clothes, to which the female audience goes wild and cheers after the cyborg when he leaves. | |

Save This Person, Save the World: Skynet wises up to its less-than-perfect track record and adds additional secondary targets along with the primary objective of killing John; in theory, without his lieutenants and specialists to help him win the war, he's just a nutcase who thinks he's the chosen one. The T-X succeeds in terminating most of those secondaries and John still remains a threat. | |

In Spite of a Nail: The movie shows us that, no matter what, Judgment Day will still transpire circa the Turn of the Millennium. In fact, the climax of Terminator 2: Judgment Day made things worse, since the new version of Skynet designed in T3 wasn't a supercomputer, but software which was able to infiltrate the Internet, which is decentralized and much harder to destroy. | |

Bullet Catch: T-850 gets shot in the head, but there's no visible wound. He moves his jaws around a bit, spits out the bullet and tells the shooter "Don't do that." From the looks of it, he was shot in the mouth (although why it didn't tear his lip is a mystery) and the bullet was stopped by the metal of his spine. Presumably it would have ricocheted off his teeth. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_da1c8191 | comment |
Writers Cannot Do Math: A bit of this going on with this film in relation to fact and the events of the first two. Changing John's age in the second movie to 13 would've placed the events of that movie after the original date of Judgment Day, August 29, 1997, as John was born in 1985. In addition, John states "we took out Cyberdyne over 10 years ago", which is incorrect; the attack on Cyberdyne happened in 1995, while T3 takes place in 2004 which makes it only 9 years since. Sarah would've been 24 or 25 during the first film and 36 in the second going by the year (1959) on her "grave" — except T2 explicitly states she's 29 during those events and she's stated to be 18 during the event of the original, making her birth year more likely to be 1966. | |

Continuity Snarl | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_df582b0b | comment |
Continuity Snarl: The opening of this movie has John state that he was 13 during the events of Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Except his age on a computer in that movie is stated to be 10 and furthermore, as that movie states he was born in 1985 and 2 states the original date of Judgment Day was August 29, 1997, so John would be 13 after Judgment Day. John also tells the T-850 that the attack on Cyberdyne was done 10 years before the events of T3. T3 takes place in 2004 and again, T2 took place in 1995, so he's off by a year. Sarah's "grave" lists her year of birth as 1959. Expect it was stated in the first two films that Sarah was 18 during the first film, which takes place in 1984, and 29 in the second, again set in 1995, meaning Sarah would've been born around 1966. | |

In fact, the T-X can also rotate her arms, torso, and legs a full 360 degrees thanks to artificial liquid steel lubrication in her actuators, something that even older Terminator units can't do. Being a highly advanced Terminator robot, her chassis is capable of Abnormal Limb Rotation Range. | |

Kill and Replace: The T-X does this to Kate's fiancé Scott Mason. When she brings up that the T-X took his form, the T-850 immediately tells her that Scott is dead. | |

Moment Killer | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_ece6f910 | comment |
Moment Killer: While in the RV, John and Kate bond over shared memories that they had in their youth, possibly rekindling a romance. The T-850 in the front seat then butts in, saying that their levity is relieving for tension and fear of death. This suddenly leaves John and Kate feeling quite nonplussed. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_ed2bbf8a | comment |
You Are in Command Now: John Connor and his future wife Kate reach the West Coast command bunker, but none of the civilian leadership did because of SkyNet's interference. So the former character seizes control of the confused and scattered resistance by default. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_ee19d278 | comment |
Blob Monster: The T-X has a Super Tough robotic skeleton with a Blobby cover; although she can't alter her shape as freely as the completely liquid metal T-1000, she can also mimic any human she touches. | |

Artistic License – Cars | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_eea06f9a | comment |
Artistic License – Cars: The T-X hacks into and remotely operates two police Crown Victorias, a Ford Econoline ambulance, and a 1985 Chevy C-30 crew cab. None of those vehicles had the type of computers that would allow this. All four used cable-driven throttles, ignition cylinders that require a physical key to operate and mechanical steering with hydraulic boost. In fact, the types of computer controls that might allow remote control (drive-by-wire throttles, computer-controlled ignition modules and remote start, self parallel-park) weren't commercially or, in the case of remote start, commonly available until a few years after the film's release. | |

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_f21e2819 | comment |
Making a Spectacle of Yourself: After getting the clothes off the bar performer, the T-850 puts his hand in one of the pocket's of the jacket, feeling a pair of sunglasses. They are quickly revealed to be a pair of large, sparkly, star-shaped sunglasses. The T-850 is not satisfied with these, so he drops them on the ground and crunches them beneath his feet. | |

Product Placement: The T-X gets an idea for its Breast Expansion from a Victoria's Secret billboard. John and the Terminator refuel at an Arco gas station and AM/PM minimart. The scene with the T-X recovering from getting knocked off the heroes' hearse prominently features a trailer for Xenadrine EFX (a weight-loss pill) throughout. | |

Selective Magnetism | |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / int_f54f6082 | comment |
Selective Magnetism: John Conner uses a magnetic coil against the Terminatrix, which drags the gun out of his hand, but they seem unaffected by anything else on their bodies, like belt buckles or zippers. It might work, however, if they're made of non-ferromagnetic metals, such as brass or aluminium. | |

Department of Redundancy Department: When SkyNet goes online, someone says that it's processing at 60 teraflops a second: "teraflop" already means "trillion calculations per second", so that's like saying "60 trillion calculations per second per second". | |

Impact Silhouette: Played straight when the T-X crashes through the Crystal Peak entranceway, it leaves a visible silhouette of her helicopter in the entranceway. Averted with the T-850's entrance to Crystal Peak, in which his much bigger helicopter completely destroys the entranceway. | |
