Terminator at the core of the story, isnt a time travel story. There is time travel in it but it doesnt play a big part in the story. At the core it
is a story about mankind destroying itself, how human brought on their own demise. The first movie introduces Sarah Conner, a young woman then. She
is told of Judgement Day, the end of the world pretty much, by Kyle Reese (the ONLY human to have time traveled in the actual story canon.) She ends
up having sex with him, thus John Conner is born. In the second one, it picks when John is just a boy, his mother was commited to Pescadaro Mental
Institution. Sarah and John learn of a way to possibly stop Judgement Day from happening, they execute a plan of assault on a company called
Cyberdyne, it was a success and the Judgement Day was stopped, or so they thought. T3 picks up with Sarah passed away from leukemia, and John as a
young adult, constantly moving from place to place in the california area, he learns ultimatly Cyberdyne was just a small player in the development of
SKYNET, an sutonomous military defense computer program, John tries once again to stop Judgement Day, but fails realizing that it cant be stopped, he
is just meant to survive it. Its a good story if you care to actaully read up on it.
