Sarah Connor died before the movie.
Hahaha. So this time-travel to 2007 is a giant "screw you" to the whole T3 storyline then. AWESOME. I imagine the episode tonight would address this whole possible death issue.
My whole life just flashed before my eyes! I gotta get me a life!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yeah, I think the hand-waviness is "the future is not set in stone" or somesuch, so that "Sarah Connor died" timeline was one possible future and it ended up that something else happened.
Um. Maybe.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Well, in the movie, she died of leukemia, and people have noted that she just shot a radioactive weapon.

Ooh. Good point. The magic red glowey isotope saved her!
Also, maybe she will die anyway, but since she traveled into the future (our present) just means she'll die a few years from now.

Our wings are not tired.
Time travel is one of the bestest things. Killing Sarah Connor was wrong.

Also, with all the Skynet terminators and resistance terminators flying back and forth in time, you'd think someone could come up with better strategies than "Kill John Connor" and "Protect John Conner."
I hope they don't do too much time travel. I have a feeling the time travel is something that's better not to think too much about.

Also, point of trivial interest, I have a friend who just got married and now her name is... Sarah Connor. I just... I'm a little jealous, I have to fess up.
I'm a little jealous of our Laura, for a similar reason.
I don't think T3 is the worst movie ever. The competition for that is so fierce and includes Highlander II. The main problem with T3 was that the first two movies were so good that it seemed pale and silly in comparison.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Hmm. I don't think I ever saw all of Highlander II, but is it worse than Highlander: The Sauce? It's a question for the ages. Though the later movie did at least have Methos...

Beyond hating T3's plot, Mr. Carnivale Without a Face and Ms. Cries A Lot were absolutely horrid (and possibly seemed embarrassed to be there).

Thrive to spite them
Dana I was going ot say, I haven't seen Highlander II but it can't be as bad as the latest Highlander. Yes it had Methos but he was running around looking fugly in that jacket oh and the magical baby. Anything with a magical baby I think ranks worse than they were aliens.
