Talk about a paradox!
I know. [Captain Janeway] Temporal mechanics gives me a headache[/Captain Janeway].
Overall, this movie needs to be a *hard R*. I'm talking ultra-violent, mother-effing, sonuvabitch, H-A-R-D Arrrrrrrrrrr.

it's more like by the late 2020s, early 2030s, the US military are largely dead and only civvies and people born post-J day are left to fight. in a TSCC ep, for example, Jesse mentions that they have a reprogrammed Terminator commanding a submarine because no flesh sub commanders who survived J-Day are left.
This is not a big surprise, honestly. It requires a lot of training to run a submarine. Especially our modern ones.
Question (and spoilers):
In T4, it is said by McG that Skynet is trying to lure Connor into a trap by kidnapping Kyle. How the hell would it know who Connor is before even getting defeated? Or for that matter, know about Reese?

Hahahahahahahahahha.
I always thought that John Connor was an interesting character when he wasn't really a character. I mean, he's the McGuffin of the first few movies, more of a symbol than a character. Even in 2 and 3 when he is played by an actor, in neither film is he the John Connor the hero. The Connor that Skynet is after still hasn't been fully formed yet. I don't know, it's just me
You're questioning a paradox in a story that could not have existed without a paradox to begin it in the first place?Question (and spoilers):

John Connor is the voice of the Humans (seen in the trailer by him on the radio) and he says he's been fighting the machines since as long as he could remember (which somewhat tells Skynet that it develops time travel). As for Kyle, if Marcus is somehow affiliated with Skynet as well as the Resistance one of the first things that John tells him is that Kyle Reese was his father (by accident during his ranting about he and Skynet having been at war since he was born).
Actually, in all other Terminator Media, John Connor never told anyone about Kyle Reese being his father.

Wasn't there something on aintitcool news about Arnold's presence in the trailer? I guess I read wrong.
From what I understand,
Marcus starts off as not knowing where or when he is. It's possible that he's a Skynet plant, with some sort of subconscious programming that reports back to Skynet. But otherwise if he were to fall into the hands of Skynet, it would probably be too late for them to know about Kyle, his relevance, or why he would specifically have such a lure over John for this idea to work. Plus, John isn't supposed to be the big target yet, despite his radio transmissions. Ashdown and others may be targetted first.
Yeah, it was good, but like Star Trek, I'm sick of the new trailers, and want to see the movies.
