What was that gun used to blast the triple 8 in the bank vault taking its head off, and what other weapons are there.

True they never gave the weapon a name; although I can’t say it’s radioactive without knowing the materials used. It was more like an electrical pulse weapon, a thunder gun if you will (yes I know thunder is the sound that comes after a lightning strike, it just sounds cooler). The Isotope was applied as some sort of mega capacitor it was used to collect and store the electrical energy that was being created. One theory of how it works that is based on some principles, is that you need three things to create electricity, relative motion, magnetic field, and a conductor. If you noticed the lower part of the weapon was spinning creating the relative motion. The copper looking metal you saw in the round parts that was spinning was the conductor. With those two elements going you create a magnetic field. I don't know the rpm of the device but I'm sure whatever it was, it was creating lots of electricity and being store into the isotope. Once it changed color that was more than likely when it reached it max charge. In short think of as a cattle prod from hell that can shoot rather than jamming into your prey.

The writers of TSCC really should do better homework on the movies characters and technology, such as the head going through the time portal in the bank vault it should have been a melted down puddle of slag when it landed 8 years in the future (on like the 3rd episode), Cameron's personality should be more like (the Arnold) instead of a 10 key and Sarah should be more like Linda Hamilton without the added personality of a Brit that wants to be inventive and these cromarties should have stray dogs chasing them, and this idea of time travel being so easy to do there should be alot more conundrums or a hyperlaser from the future (bluprints sent back) to burn a hole clean through the ever so easy to remove brain chip with the help of a targeting system scope another blueprint or just grow skin on the hand weapons and ,and, blah, blah, blah...etc...etc... In other words if they want this series to work Star Trek it up a bit with caches of future devices like a scanner that you can see the indoskeliton or a thermite shotgun shell that could actually slow down a T-BOT And how about cameron protecting her skin more often (like use a pipe to shove through a power generater instead of a leather glove and the skin on her hand) at least she could say "I didnt want to get hurt" LOL.

The show has not even stared yet and someone provided the wrong information. Sarah Conner vanquished the terminator in the first movie. In Teminator 2 Judgement D ay the terminator came back to protect sarah and her son.

In the first movie the hand was undamaged and the body and head was still salvagable. the writers of TSCC really should do better homework on the movies characters and technology, such as the head going through the time portal in the bank vault it should have been a melted down puddle of slag when it landed 8 years in the future (on like the 3rd episode), Cameron's personality should be more like (the Arnold) instead of a 10 key and Sarah should be more like Linda Hamilton without the added personality of a Brit that wants to be inventive and these cromarties should have stray dogs attacking them most of the time, and this idea of time travel being so easy to do there should be alot more conundrums and a hyperlaser from the future bluprints sent back to burn a hole clean trough the ever so easy to remove brain chip with the help of a targeting system scope another blueprint or just grow flesh on the hand weapons and ,and, blah, blah, blah...etc...etc... In other words if they want this series to work Star Trek it up a bit.

I thought the TV terminators just weren't good. They just didn't pull it off. Sometimes they appeared to be dumb - and then the infamous turning their head at an angle (like a dog does) when they have been introduced an odd concept. Never did you see that done in the movies (except once by T1000 looking at the silver manequin. I hope next year, they get some better actors, or if they keep the same ones - guys do your homework and really study the movements and facial gestures. Practice in the mirror for Godsakes. Cameron - she's hot. She had some good moments of acting, and some bad ones - but she's hot - and I like the potential for her character - I thought the dancing Terminator posed some intruiging possibilities.

"For me I don't have a problem with the whole head turning thing. They are machines and when introduced to something new how else would they regard it? Even the borg when faced with something new before they decide to assimilate it they observe it, regard it in a similar way. But they do more of a blank stare thing as a posed to the slight head tilt." ditto

on the very first eposode, when john meets cameron, she has emotions and feeling in her voice, then when things get serious she stops it, then when she meets other human she doesnt use them, was she programmed to do that? i think it just seems weird that she only uses them once

She is able to fake emotions and needed to to get close to John in the first place, but she appears to realy have something equavilant to emotion and be a sentinet being like Data on Star Trek. this makes her different than other terminators, but not so different than Arnold in T2. When they are on the field trip to the musum and she notices one of Sarkasian's henchmen following them. She is noticed by one of the chaperones trying to leave the group to confront him and smiles with a very human like "my bad" reaction. Many times during the show she shows emotion or sometime like it. The pancake scene with BAG is also an example.

Think she is the precursor to the T-X? We have yet to see her change with weapons and such, but it could be.

"She's definitely a Model 101 of some kind.But of unknown Series.That would explain the combat chassis surrounded by living tissue.In order to convert any of her limbs to weapons,she would have to sacrifice her skin to do it.Unlike the TX(liquid metal)." I think it was the third episode...Cameron walks into a room and encounters a rather charming yet primitive robot of sorts, it looks at her as if to greet a comrad. With unblinking eye's she turns to look at her image on TV. Her face is framed and on the upper left or right hand side of the frame is the number 101.....This is the kind of stuff I love about this show, I just have to sit on the edge of my seet.
