Corrected entry: When John is talking to Catherine when they are switching vehicles, she is sitting in the passenger seat crying. You can see her tears rolling down her face. The camera angle changes to John and then back to her again and her face is completely dry.
Corrected entry: It seems a bit strange that the T-850 arrives from the future with no battle damage. Later in the film we learn that that terminator hunted down and killed John Connor in the future, and then was captured and reprogrammed by Claire Danes. If Connor was the leader of the human resistance then he would be heavily guarded and the terminator would have sustained at least some minor damage trying to find/kill him and i doubt that tech-com would own a flesh regenerator to fix him all up before sending him to the past.
Correction: In Terminator 2, when Sarah Connor is pulling the slugs out of the Terminator's back, she asks 'Will these heal up?' to which the Terminator replies 'Yes'. It's probable to assume that if they did do any damage to it, they waited for the flesh to heal. There is no real indication of how much time passed between Connor's assassination and the T-850's reprogramming. They also could have captured it, or used EMP's to temporarily disable it while they reprogrammed it.
Corrected entry: When Catherine is talking to her dad who is dying she starts crying, but when the camera switches back to her from her dad there are no tears, her face is completely dry.
Correction: This isn't really true. Tears often seem to disappear after they have rolled down someone's face. This is especially prevalent with Claire Daines, as this is not the only time in the movie, or the only movie in fact, where it appears that her face is dry. Tears typically tend to seem like they've disappeared once they dry on someone's face, but they're still there.
Corrected entry: The hearse glove box lock is missing on one interior shot, but is there again in another shot.
Correction: Unlikely. Only one stunt car was used for the scene and the glove box was intact the entire time. It could've bounced open, or more likely it just wasn't able to be seen during the shot, considering how much chaos ensued during the hearse chase.
Corrected entry: When John Connor crashes into a guy's vehicle with the Toyota Tundra, it looks to be partly cloudy with the sun barely coming up. But when the guy gets out of the vehicle and starts yelling at John, it is sunny with barely any clouds out. (00:31:15)
Correction: You'd be amazed how fast the sun comes up during a sunrise. It can go from barely any light to bright and sunny in a matter of 5 minutes. When John was speeding down the highway, the sun was already coming over the horizon.
Corrected entry: In the scene where John crashes into the guy's car, the guy steps out and rubs his neck. A few moments later the door to the car closes by itself as if being pulled by a wire.
Correction: When the guy gets out, he shoves the door hard. Considering how mangled the car was, the entire body was bent, and the off-balance body caused the door to close again. This often happens to cars that are rear-ended.
Corrected entry: When John and Kate enter the particle accelerator while they are being chased by the T-X, you can see that John is in front and Kate is behind him. But later when the magnetic field accelerator is activated, Kate is now in front with John behind her. (01:23:15)
Correction: When the TX starts to become magnetized by the magnet, John steps toward her with his gun raised, moving past Kate.
Corrected entry: Just to be sure. Arnold got $150 SAMA Beta Titanium sunglasses at an "AM PM" convenience store rotating display, and found a $10,000 Audemars Piguet watch in a pickup truck?
Correction: Why not? Probably just a very careless person. I leave my $240 Oakleys in my car all the time. Also, the SAMA Beta Titaniums are the ones that Arnold found in the pick-up truck, not the convenience store.
Corrected entry: Early on in the vet clinic, when the T-X enters, you can hear some dogs barking. In Terminator 1 it was explained that dogs could sense terminators, explaining why they started barking in T3.
Correction: A good observation, but its probably more likely that the dogs were barking at the sudden noises and crashing around. They were barking just as much when Kate entered the Vet clinic by herself.
Corrected entry: When you see John Connor sitting on the bridge, that is the same place where the T-1000 chases John on his motorcycle with a tow truck in Terminator 2: Judgement Day.
Correction: Not really...there are TONS of drainage ditches like that all around Los Angeles. A good observation, but probably not the same one.
Corrected entry: The vet's walls are fake. We can tell this because the rubble gets caught under the T-X's arm as she emerges after Arnold Schwarzenegger rams into her.
Correction: She's a machine that probably weighs half a ton...the rubble is light compared to her body.
Corrected entry: Throughout the entire movie whenever Arnie gets hit or involved in some fight with the TX, his hair and clothes are messed up. However, the TX's hair and wardrobe are always spotless-not even an out of place hair.
Correction: The TX's hair and clothing are not real - they're formed from liquid metal. As such, they'd generally stay in their standard (i.e. neat) configuration. Same was true of the T-1000 in T2.
Corrected entry: When the Cat lady is shot by the TX, she hits the floor, and can be seen just past the corner of the hallway. When the shot angle changes, she is a few feet back and her position changed.
Correction: That's not really true... after we see her fall from the gunshots, we never actually see her from any other angle, other than having a close up shot of her and the T-X crouching down over her to sample her blood, making it impossible to discern that.
Corrected entry: When Arnold Schwartzenegger steals the RV, notice the ammunition on the picnic table. When he places the green grenade rounds on the table, the bottom (where the firing pin would hit on a normal cartridge) is facing towards us. When he puts the rest of the ammo on the table, you can see the copper heads of the rounds.
Correction: He was moving them around between shots.
Corrected entry: When Arnold arrives in the teleportation bubble, there is a set of trees about 10 feet away from where the bubble appears. The camera angle changes to a closeup and the trees catch fire from the bubble and they are now 2 feet away.
Correction: The bubble expands, and is closer to the trees than it appeared.
Corrected entry: When the T-850 leaves the gas station, he looks back to see the attendant on the phone, surely he would have disconnected the phone, knowing that the police are looking for them and that would the first person the guy called, allowing the T-X to follow them with the police.
Correction: He probably didn't expect Kate Brewster to come leaping out of the back screaming for help, which is really the only reason that the kid called the cops in the first place. At that point, it would've been best just to keep moving rather than to waste time going back in and slamming the kid around and disconnecting the phone line, after which it would've been too late.
Corrected entry: If the T-X has Kate's files from middle school, retrieved from current sources, surely she would have a date of birth in there too? And if so, she would know that Kate was in her early 20s and the first woman she killed in the vet's office couldn't possibly be Kate, so she shouldn't have needed to test her DNA.
Correction: Appearance is often not an accurate reflection of age. Just because the cat lady obviously looked so much older didn't mean that it wasn't at least worth checking to see if it was Kate or not.
Corrected entry: During the scene where Kate's father is questioning what is happening with Skynet, the Terminatrix comes out looking like Kate without ever having touched her.
Corrected entry: When John asks Terminator whether "Hasta la vista, baby" rings a bell, Terminator tells him that was a different "T-101." This nomenclature is incorrect: Terminator is a Cyberdyne Systems Series 800 Model 101, also referred to as a T-800 (in this film he's a T-850). "T-101" is a bastardized combination of model and series numbers, and is inconsistent with what appears in both other films. 800 and 101 are both numbers that refer to the "Arnold" terminator (model and series, respectively). But the "T" prefix is supposed to be followed by the model number (800), not the series (101). It's like referring to a Ford F-150 STX as an "F-STX." Even if what is meant can be inferred, it is a technical error, the kind the terminator would never make (especially in referring to itself).
Correction: While that may prove true for the previous Terminator movies, it doesn't ring true for Terminator 3. Cyberdyne was destroyed in Terminator 2, along with all research and development based on the Terminator chip. In Terminator 3, it is very and carefully explained that Cyberdyne is NOT responsible for the creation of SkyNet, hence it would have absolutely nothing to do with the creation of Terminators. Since the T-850 came from a future where Cyberdyne is not responsible for the creation of SkyNet, then the "CSM-101" nomenclature for the Terminators in the previous movies is completely irrelevant and incorrect. As far as this Terminator is concerned, there never was any 'CSM-101' model, but there IS T-101. T-101 refers to the Skin, but T-850 refers to the endoskeleton machine. SkyNet did not use any Cyberdyne technology to build its Terminators, instead using whatever technology it could find (likely the machines from the Military Base). Hence, this is definitely not a mistake at all; in this current future there is no Cyberdyne, hence no CSM-101's, since CSM-101 stands for Cyberdyne Systems Model .
Corrected entry: In the scene where the TX kills the 2 policemen in the car, she smashes the second man's head against the windscreen, cracking it and spraying it with blood. She then grabs the wheel and turns the car around. The following aerial shot of the car doing a 180 degree turn shows the windscreen undamaged and clean. In the following shot the glass is bloody and cracked again.
Correction: The policeman's head was smashed against the door window, not the windshield.
Correction: This isn't really true. Tears often seem to disappear after they have rolled down someone's face. This is especially prevalent with Claire Daines, as this is not the only time in the movie, or the only movie in fact, where it appears that her face is dry. Tears typically tend to seem like they've disappeared once they dry on someone's face, but they're still there.
