It’s not a paradox at all, there’s two different timelines. In the first timeline, Kyle Reese is born after John Connor, who defeats Skynet, prompting Skynet to send a T-800 back in time and Connor to send Reese. Once that happens, the second timeline is created in which Reese becomes John’s father.

A style note, reposting the post you are responding to is unnecessary and annoying. I know what I posted and other readers can trace back to follow the thread.

If you have become successful enough to profit 50 million a year or 1 billion a year you are smart enough to figure how to avoid paying that 2 or 3% wealth tax.

Willfully ignorant suckasses like you are why we can’t have nice things.

So then your answer is you. You get to decide. Whatever.

I do understand that being rich without having suckasses around is pretty pointless.

This statement implies that you think the situation is binary. Either “good management” is worth $107B (in Gate’s case) or it’s worth $0.

But does he deserve $107 billion for that?

You should work for him for free. When you are done for the day, go wash his car.

No one is arguing that management has no value.

No one is saying that though.

There is some truth to it, BestBuy fortunes turned around when they installed Joly Hubert as CEO, Apple with Steve Jobs, Microsoft started going down hill until Satya Nadella took over. Chipotle has been making a turn around since hiring Brian Niccol as their CEO.

The movie was made for about 180 million, plus another 50-100 million on advertisements. No matter how many people like it, a 27 million dollar opening weekend domestically was below their expectations.

This makes no sense, and is wrong.

Also, none of the movies since T2 have contained any kind of horror element, which was the entire point of the first movie.

Either he didn’t see it, or he has no idea what the story actually is.

Salvation, Genisys, and Dark Fate all attempted to become the start of a new trilogy, and every time they’ve failed miserably, because they’re not making the movies because they have good ideas for Terminator movies, they’re making the movies to try to cash in on the brand and hold onto licensing rights. All of the…

In the first Terminator, if Skynet hadn’t sent back the T-800, it would have won. John’s father, Kyle Reese, wouldn’t have been sent back in retaliation, John wouldn’t have been conceived, and it’s mission accomplished.

Did Bill Gates personally code every product you purchased of his? Did Bill Gates hand deliver the hardware, set up the software, and put it in place?

One of the things that makes Terminator: Dark Fate so good is that it tells a complete story.
