I got stupid. The money was too good.

That was me, over in Boxed Set, actually. I think it's incredibly disturbing.

Honestly, I'm as annoyed by misogynistic conspiracy theories as you are, but that even pinged me.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I guess I don't see it as very different from The Borg Queen. Or is she a misogynistic icon, too?

I think it's a step beyond the Borg Queen (though DX also brought up that reference during the conversation in Boxed Set). The Borg Queen, though female, was clearly alien. That poster looks like Summer, completely human, sexually available with her flowing long hair and her breasts. She just happens to be missing the rest of her body.

I'm not really familiar with the Borg Queen, but the image looked to me like a floating pair of breasts tantalizingly obscured by hair.

I think some of the most iconic images from the world of The Terminator are of dismembered robots. I feel like Summer's poster goes right along with that. Also if you follow the link at the bottom of the AICN page there are three other posters. AICN chose to post that one (I think) because it is arguably the most striking.

t shrug
I'd argue that though we saw the Arnold Terminator naked in the first movie, the overall image was one of strength, which is clearly not the intention with the Summer Terminator.
Other people are entitled to disagree, of course, though I'd rather not be called a tinhat who sees misogynistic conspiracy theories.
