In this episode we welcome our first guest, film critic Travis Johnson, to rank all six Terminator films from worst to best. We discuss what makes some of the films modern classics and why other films in the franchise get it so wrong. We explore how the films express anxieties about A.I., what makes Sarah Connor such an enduring action icon, how Arnold Schwarzenegger's performances change from film to film and try to untangle the very complicated rights issues that were happening behind-the-scenes. We also discuss how the Terminator has expanded into TV, comics, and videogames and pitch our own ideas for future films.Timecodes:Film 6 (16:57)Film 5 (30:20)Film 4 (41:30)Film 3 (57:21)Film 2 (1:10:20)Film 1 (1:23:01)Hosted, produced, and edited by Liam Dunn and Lindsay HallamMusic composed and performed by Damo Alexander and Rosie GilbeyArtwork by Millie HallamVisit our website: https://rss.com/podcasts/scifrights/Email us at [email protected] us on:InstagramFacebookBlueskyLetterboxd
