1. Measuring Explosives In Terms Of Supercomputers
How much C4 does it take to blow up ten supercomputers? Well, given C4 is a high-yield plastic explosive, most people would say "hmm, probably just about any amount" given supercomputers aren't exceptionally large, nor were they in 2003 when the Terminator 3 was released. Heating/cooling issues aside, you could fit ten into a single room. However, the writers of Rise Of The Machines appear to think that equating plastic explosives to supercomputers is a measurement scale that works, and so included one of the worst lines of dialogue in film history in their script: "There's enough C4 here to blow up ten supercomputers!" And this is uttered from the mouth of the man who would be saviour to the human race, freeing them from the tyranny of the machines. Know what else will blow up ten supercomputers? A stick of dynamite. A Molotov cocktail and a match. A grenade. And after all that, they didn't even stop Judgement Day. Dumb. Lets hope Terminator Genisys learns from the mistakes of its predecessors! Add your thoughts below.
