To conclude.I'd also express some confusion for why no director/writer has gone for a film showing Judgement Day in all it's Judgement Day-y glory. In essence.Hurray for exponential story complication! You could probably add more by adjusting things fully for Judgement Day (presumably a timeline exists where the arm was destroyed as well, correct? And yet that's a different timeline than the 'first' (prime?) timeline where Connor becomes important so.) In order to explain the single storyline we see in Terminator, we need to juggle three timelines in our heads. I can't help but be reminded of the Legend of Zelda and the timelines created for that-merely because it also shows what I'm beginning to see as an issue of 'compounding naval-gazing timeline plot-hole solutions' that time-travel opens up by virtue of its existence alone. To summarize for folks, video's author posits that the 1984 Terminator is the story of the third iteration-timeline of things-with the 'first' being one where the events depicted in the film never happened at all and John Connor somewhat coincidentally became important later, the 'second' timeline being one where the events happened slightly differently (no love-story between Reece and Sarah), and the 'third' being the events of the film as depicted (love story and all)-which happens to be the most interesting one for viewing pleasure.
