We're not changing the future or stopping it .... we just delay it from inevitably happening

That was a bullshit twist ending and if dragging out an aging Schwarzenegger to do some of the stiffest line-reads in his career hadn't spoiled the franchise, I'd say this was what put it out to pasture.

The thing that made the first two films (and the short-lived TV spin off) cool was this idea of a modern day insurgency against a dystopian future. As soon as you concede Judgement Day is irreversible, it sucks all the drama out of the story. Now you've just got What If Rambos Were Robots And They Were Fighting: The Movie, minus all that social baggage about Vietnam.
