guerilla marketing

[roxybisquaint]

We've done plenty of guerilla marketing in this campaign to save the show... bookmarks in books in the sci-fi section of the library, flyers under windshield wipers, stickers everywhere. But I like that kind of thing and I want to do more. So I'm thinking about doing a highway overpass sign for The Sarah Connor Chronicles, like this. But what should it say and how should I do it? A painted sheet? Some cardboard? Streamers woven into the fencing? Hmm...

I think I'll plot it out this weekend. I'm open to suggestions.

Did they ever 'splain why judgement day didn't happen? I watched T3 but I can't remember.

If you make the signs, you could do a political message in context to the plot of show. Free Sarah with her face. Ziera Corp Sucks. Or just "no fate". "Recycle your Metal" hehehe, please steal that one one from me.

"I watched T3 (snip)"
That was your FIRST mistake, JK.

Judgement Day was delayed after Sarah showed Miles Dyson the error of his ways, and he helped the Connors and Uncle Bob terminate Cyberdyne's developement of Skynet tech from the T1 terminator parts.

In the universe of TSCC, AI technology has reached the "tipping point", or critical mass, where the technology has become sufficiently widespread that self-aware AI has sprung up from several different places: a traffic control system, a chess program, Danny Dyson's (science fair?) project.

John Henry is supposed to be a properly raised "good AI" to protect humanity against the "enfants terribles".

Ah, but In my mind I still placed blame on T3 for delaying it because they decided to tell the story that way. I see now that events in T3 did not delay the original J-day. Thanks. I got mixed up.

In TSCC everything was going haywire, with multiple AIs, multiple time travels. I can't believe the future war was is ineveitable. I just think they have to track down the right piece and destroy it or train people not to make deadly AIs.

That's like training people not to make nuclear weapons.

We've reached the tipping point.

Too many people are within reach of the threshold.

The genie is out of the bottle.

Pandora's box is open. The only thing remaining in the box is HOPE.

It may not be completely inevitable, but there's so many pieces in place it might as well be. Even if the military people responsible were convinced it was a bad idea, there's Skynet itself which seems to have already infected a large number of computers (my assumption was that Kaliba was run by a version of skynet that was sent back from the future to ensure it's own existance). So all that AI needs to do is survive, with a few terminators that can take over a few key military facilities.

That's my take on it too. I think SKynet has been busy creating itself through Kaliba. And by sending Fisher back to install that roving back door, the Kaliba AI can insert itself into the defense computers. It no longer needs to wait around to get sold to the military and hooked into the defense system.

Why it hasn't done it yet, I'm not sure, but it's got something to do with John Henry.

Or not kill Andy Goode! Everything went bad after Derek killed him.
