The Terminator (1984)

Listen on

Episode notes

We're living in a world where artificial intelligence has become a legitimate threat. It's not 2023... it's 1984. But two mysterious figures have traveled back in time from 2029 to kill the mother of the man who will save humanity. They arrive naked - and bring all sorts of plot holes with them.

Keith Conrad joins me to discuss 1984's epic sci-fi/action flick: "The Terminator". A modest little movie that spawned a six-film franchise which still tries to justify some of the shortcomings of the original. 

FUN FACT: The number of words in these show notes are greater than the number of words Arnold Schwarzenegger speaks in the film.
