I think I like this show more than get played... and I almost never watch the show you talk about... I'm one of them.

I watched all 8 eps of the series when it dropped a few weeks back and I was pretty underwhelmed by the first few - but I think by the mid-point, when some bigger plot stuff moves, I re-invested and enjoyed it a lot more. I did enjoy the Sarah Connor Chronicles tv show back in the day, it had a few neat ideas and I vaguely recall the 2nd season ending (which became the series finale sadly ) doing some interesting things with the time travel concepts and the wider John Connor mythos. I overall enjoy the wider franchise a lot, even if T1&2 are the only truly great entries, and I like the kind of misery of the universe and that despite all the franchise entries climaxes, it really does seem like the future will never change too far from what we see. All the victories in the franchise seem to just move the dial slightly, rather than shift fate too much.. and I kinda like that.

I went to see a screening of Terminator 2 this past weekend here in the UK and it was stunning. It’s one of my favourite action films anyway but had never seen it in the cinema before and was genuinely impressed at how great it still looks on the big screen (some iffy digital effects for the T-1000 aside). So damn good!

When Eiko went back in time, the choice to face away from everyone when she crouched down was very strange. Imagine going on a suicide mission and saying goodbye to all of your loved ones forever, then deciding to use your final moment to show them all your bumhole.

I don’t want to give anyone more work, but I am so down with you guys adding sound effects. That got a huge laugh out of me! 🤣

You can see arnold’s hog in T1- get that 4k- austrian sausage

I think Dark Fate was pretty decent, just not enough to make up for the many bad Terminator sequels. In a world where they waited until 2019 to make a follow-up to T2 I think Dark Fate would have gone over better.

Baccano is by the same author as Durarara, Dead Mount Death Play and Fate/ strange fake. All good stuff. Dude has a good track record

When they showed Malcolm's personal profile, and it listed his age as 32 frankly I was shocked. This guy's gotta stop burning the candle at both ends!

Notrock

My favorite part so far is the opening scene when the Terminator started killing people with the Netflix caption "[edgy techno music playing]"

Zack Tennenhouse

I've never been a big Terminator guy, but after watching these first two? I'll be back 😎 ...sorry. Seriously though, while I'm personally a Violet Evergarden apologist, I'm so glad you guys have landed on Terminator Zero. This is my wife's first exposure to the franchise, and I haven't interacted with it in at least a decade, so it's a cool excuse to show her the first two movies.

EGAD

I don't know if it's because of Heather's amazing rendition of "dun-dun dun dun-dun", but when the Terminator starts shooting the people in the hideout out I thought it sounded like he does it to that rhythm

beatnikbedlam

would love to see Nick (or anyone really) check out Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines, it’s maybe the best anime romcom i’ve ever seen. such good character writing and so many great jokes

Alex Chosid

I can’t believe how often this show about time travel, robots and nineties Japan has me involuntarily reaching for my phone out of boredom. This show also has the unfair job of being the next show in line after Violet Evergarden, but man this animation looks like shit.

XRedGambit

When watching on Netflix, check your subtitles, mine defaulted to English (CC) and it wasn't matching the Japanese (subs when no one was speaking I can't understand Japanese). I changed it to just English and it was good after that. (I assume I still can't speak Japanese but there wasnt any extra subs when no talking was happening)

BensDecoy

As with Cyberpunk Edgerunners and Pluto the cast of this show is a little more racially diverse than most anime productions so I've watched all three dubbed. I personally feel better about the voice actor and their character aligning, with maybe the cadence of the voices in English sounding awkward, than I do with the idea that anime is seen as more authentic in Japanese because of the production location, or even in the case where the in-universe setting is Japan. Not sure if the Western anime audience in general thinks the same way or if it's still clinging to the old dubs vs subs nonsense.

Kyle Caulfield

When Malcolm was talking to Kokoro in the second ep and her visual representation was green, she kinda looked like a fart cloud

Bobson Dugnutt

I know the timeline in Terminator Zero is pretty bleak, but a couple of weeks ago I was at a state fair and they had deep fried candy necklaces, so it’s impossible to say in which timeline mankind has unleashed the most evil

XRedGambit

The only time cherry tomatoes don't look appetizing is in LOTR Return of the King. Speaking of everyone going to see the anime? 1 off episode?

Garrett MacFalda

It's amazing how flat the ass of the robot guy that ends episode 1 is, it's an incredibly two dimensional rumpo

Zack C

First of all this I haven't figured out how to make these comments not look like a messy Wall of text when posting on mobile because pressing the enter key just posts the comment. Secondly, this is a prediction not a spoiler because I've only seen the first two episodes. Haven't seen anyone else comment this yet but was I the only one to think they made it blatantly obvious that Eiko and the prophet were the same person? They talk about how time travel is a one-way trip so she's gone forever and as soon as they said that I was like well she could just wait 25 years and then we see the prophet and she has the same color eyes and says something like "it always had to be you". And I was like "oh okay so she goes back in time and then ages 25 years and then is the one who has to send herself back in time, kinda cool" but I swear to God if they reveal it at the end like we didn't already know it the whole time I'm going to be so mad and it kind of feels like that is exactly what is going to happen. Also I'm with Heather, the show is not nearly violent enough and I feel like the reason for that is because they are trying to save money which is my main complaint because I feel like the show looks a lot cheaper than it should. A lot of the goriest shots are just still images using camera movement to simulate animation like the guard with his guts spilled out. When you guys said you were going to watch a new Terminator animation I'm pretty sure Heather's head went to the same place mine did because I thought it was just going to be the Terminator effortlessly destroying human bodies with unfathomable robot strength and so far I think the show is less gory than, say, Edgerunners. Having said all that, I don't hate the show and I'll probably keep watching along.

When they travel back in time what do you think happens to the sphere of material that goes away? I like to think it goes to the future.

RyGuy

With Violet Evergarden I kinda had to drop off on it half way. (Still listened to the podcast episodes though) but with this show I kinda couldn't stop watching and ended up binging the whole show in one sitting. Very glad you guys decided to pick this one up.

Deandre Gibson

I watched the first 2 episode...then the next 6 loved it but it made me realize I've never seen the first terminator guess that's next for me

Luke Lamar

Extremely hard to pause watching this after two episodes. Love all the details in the first episode like the Santendo 68 and GameStation

David Mucci

I share the praise all around here, as I found these episodes super riveting. It did make me nostalgic for Pluto though, so I’m glad Matt mentioned it! That was a show I liked but didn’t love when y’all covered it, but I’m surprised by how much it has stuck with me. I still think about its world and themes a lot, and I find a fair amount of that echoed here.

ryan mcgrath

Skynet-working? It’s another murder robot show, the podcast’s favorite genre, but Heather likes it and that makes me happy. The podcast is at its best when Heather is yelling “fuck yeah!” and “let’s fucking go!”.

SalsaShark

love the first person perspective of the terminator as they scan the environment and I paused constantly during these parts to read everything on screen, also Eiko's clothes are very Kyle Reese-esque love the nod.

Steven_pistachio

I need it to be stated somewhere- that there is a 1/8 scale model robot version of ghost in the shell tank- it tells you your schedule, and can identify an apple

Nix Null

My personal theory is that only people from the future can cuss.
