Corrected entry: Marcus Wright puts up quite a fight against the T-800, but when the T-800 learns that Marcus's life source is his heart the T-800 delivers a powerful punch to kill off the heart. It was the same kind of casual swing of force that ripped apart an earlier terminator model that was in the T-800's way. However, despite John stating he could kill Marcus's heart with a bullet and the clear superior strength of the T-800, the T-800 it seems is unable to rip through a cyborg despite ripping apart another terminator, one that was arguably more endurable then Marcus was. Not also is Marcus's heart in well enough condition, but it is suitable enough for a life saving transplant for Connor.
Corrected entry: In Terminator Salvation, the young Kyle Reese (Anton Yelchin) saves Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington) from a Terminator attack, directing Marcus to come with him before they've even exchanged pleasantries. Reese doesn't learn any manners as he gets older, considering this is the same exchange he has with Sarah Connor after saving her from a Terminator unit in Club TechNoir in The Terminator. The Terminator himself uses a similar greeting with Sarah Connor in Terminator 2: Judgment Day when finding her at the mental institution.
Correction: These are staple utterings in the Terminator movies and are so obvious that they can never be considered legitimate trivia.
Corrected entry: At the beginning of the movie John Connor sets out to pursue a flying terminator with a helicopter. However, he crashes after a few seconds due to an explosion that was meant as a trap for him and his team. When John climbs out of the wreckage, he sees a mushroom cloud. It's impossible he could escape a nuclear explosion within a few seconds.
Correction: You're assuming it was a nuclear explosion. Large enough bombs will create a similar mushroom cloud, it's not limited to just a nuclear explosion. Further evidence to support it NOT being nuclear, where was the blinding flash from the detonation and pressure wave? Not a mistake.
Corrected entry: When Marcus is receiving medical attention after stepping on a mine, the combatants realize he is a hybrid. The black guy moves into Marcus' POV and slams the butt of his gun into his face. The screen goes black, indicating Marcus has been knocked out. The next scene also starts with Marcus' POV, indicating he is regaining his consciousness. As seen in the scenes before and after this, hitting him in the face is completely insufficient to take him out (even temporarily).
Correction: He's also just been blown up by a landmine! As evidenced from the overhead shot of Marcus being carried to Kate Connor so she can examine him, he is not looking or acting as if he is unaffected by the explosion. He's sufficiently weakened to allow Barnes to knock him out. Not a mistake.
Corrected entry: Those motorcycle terminators are able to dodge flying cars and wrecks at reckless speed. However, John Connor captures one by simply pulling a chain across the street.
Correction: Firstly, its not a plot hole, because the movie doesn't fail on this one issue. And secondly John pulled up the chain at the last second, the mototerminator couldn't avoid it because there was rough ground on either side of the road that it couldn't travel on, and the chain was attached to two upturned cars, so it had no choice but to continue into the trap. Not a mistake.
Corrected entry: In the first helicopter assault scene, the door gun is a 7.62MM chain gun with multiple barrels; later, it becomes a single barrel M-60D.
Correction: There were several helicopters in the opening scene and they had different types of guns on them. This "mistake" isn't specific enough. Resubmit with more information.
Corrected entry: In the scene where John Connor is fighting the T-600 at the downed helicopter, the T-600 rips his boot off. Immediately after destroying the T-600, John has both boots on.
Correction: The T-600 rips off John's right boot. When John scrambles through the downed helicopter you only see his left foot (with the boot on). When he falls out of the helicopter on the other side he clearly is still missing his right boot. After he destroys the terminator he rests for a few seconds, then they show him walking away with both boots on; obviously after he replaced the right boot.
Correction: Your whole submission is based on the assumption that the T-600 that the T-800 ripped apart is more durable than Marcus. Clearly the entire fight sequence is at odds with your submission, as the T-600 lasted mere seconds against the T-800 and Marcus lasted SIGNIFICANTLY longer. In fact had the T-800 not analysed Marcus for a weakness, it's likely the fight would have continued. Therefore your submission, worded as it is cannot stand.
