Can someone explain Terminator logic to me?

[GrimNeo]

Can someone explain Terminator logic to me? I saw Terminator Genisys last night. I left the theater even more  confused about the Terminator time travel logic. Even in T2 they clearly state that metal can not time travel because of magnetic field. So how was the t-1000/tx able to time travel. They explain that the reason why the original Terminator was able to go back into the past because it had human tissue covering the metal. Can someone explain this to me? Also the whole time travel concept of the series is broken.

 

Created by the series' long-running antagonist, Skynet, the T-1000 is described in Terminator 2 as being composed of a mimetic poly-alloy, whose body is composed of liquid metal that allows it to assume the form of other objects (commonly knives and stabbing weapons) or people, typically terminated victims.[2] Therefore, it is portrayed by multiple actors in the film. It is further explained in the prologue of the film's novelization, that the T-1000 was created through nanotechnology, and is a 'Nanomorph', able to scan the molecular structure of whatever it is touching and visually mimic it.[3]

 

The T-X was designed in Stan Winston studios, where it was considered particularly challenging to design, as the script required a character capable of holding its own against the original Terminator. Originally, the T-X's endoskeleton was meant to convey an androgynous shape which would permit the android to assume the superficial traits of both men and women, though later designs veered on it being more feminine. The final, approved T-X design was done by Aaron Sims, who designed it entirely on computer through a mixture of Photoshop and 3D software. The T-X endoskeleton was painted chrome black, in order to differentiate it from the silver sheen of the T-850 endoskeleton. The T-X was also fitted with blue running lights, rather than the original's red. John Rosengrant later stated that the individual parts of the T-X endoskeleton were hard coated, sanded and polished through machines, resulting in a mathematically perfect model, unlike the endoskeleton in The Terminator, which was sculpted by hand and lacked symmetry.[1]

The T-X is designed to not only terminate humans but also rogue Terminators reprogrammed by the Resistance, an "anti-terminator terminator" as stated by John Connor. It is a composite of the T-800 and T-1000, a solid endoskeleton covered with a liquid metal "mimetic polyalloy", allowing it to take the shape of any humanoid it touches. Because it is only coated in this material, it is possible to remove it from the endoskeleton using immensely strong magnetic force, such as that from a cyclic particle accelerator. Although the official novelization of Terminator 2 expanded the origin of the T-1000 and reveals it had onboard nanotechnology (and programmable memory) that was capable of scanning the molecular structure of anything the T-1000 touched, the T-X has a built-in supply of more advanced nanobots in its fingers, which it can inject into other machines (even a less advanced android), giving it remote control. An onboard plasma reactor powers all of the T-X's systems.

Haven't watched the movie, but i can tell you already. 

 

There's is no logic, it's a money grab. 

[GrimNeo]

I'm talking about the previous movies.

[MrImnotMLG]

When there are as many paradoxes as there in the series, you know it's only for the executives to fill a room with money and roll around in it.

[ShadowCaptain]

No

 

I cannot explain it, because it makes no fucking sense

My comment goes for any of the Terminator movies except 1. 

[LancerBG]

They got it right. They had a time travel consultant from the future working on the movie. 

[GrimNeo]

No

Correct. Even though I still love t-2. I have to shut off my brain to watch the movie. Also it makes no sense how cyberdyne was even created.

Got what right lol. They contradict themselves so many times.

I just treat them as dumb action movies

Also Skynet will happen.
