“Terminator Zero” Review
As a thought experiment among fans, this would be a neat discussion. As an officially released piece of media that’s an official expansion of the lore, this is a steaming pile of terminator scrap that completely changes the in-universe science. I’m perfectly fine with the new AI concepts that are introduced, the time loops are pretty well explained, but just the same, there’s an introduction to some multiversal theories that stand in stark contrast to the accepted time travel theories of past Terminator films that came before.
Also, it’s yet another series with a cat in it that distracted me a for nearly the entire time it was on screen, I was constantly wondering if they were going to kill the cat.
On the positive side, it’s nice to see the franchise still has legs and animation is still seen as a valid vehicle for something as heavy and dark as this post-apocalyptic fantasy series.
