Terminator Salvation

Other mistake: When Marcus, Kyle and Star are at the petrol station, a flying HK and the giant Harvester robot are able to appear just outside without making any kind of sound. In every other scene of the Harvester and the HKs however, they both make an incredible amount of noise. (00:37:40)

Other mistake: A spelling mistake in the credits lists Diego Lopez as a "soilder" instead of the intended soldier. (01:27:45)

Other mistake: The T-800 manufacturing facility cannot seem to decide just how the T-800's are assembled. When John, Kyle and Star jump through the hole and land amongst a load of T-800 skulls, all of the skulls have eyes that are lit up, and the lower jaws already attached. However, in the next shot when we see the T-800's being assembled on the production line, eyes are inserted separately and are not lit up, and the the lower jaws are only attached at that point, not before.

Continuity mistake: When John Connor is carried to the helicopter, we can see the older lady Virginia in the helicopter. After the helicopter becomes airborne, Virginia is not seen again. (01:41:10 - 01:41:50)

More quotes from Terminator Salvation

Trivia: Reese's introduction isn't the only thing that stays the same about the character between movies. Here he uses his preferred weapon - a sawed-off shotgun. Marcus isn't keen on having a gun aimed at him though, so he snatches it out of Reese's hands, then teaches him a trick to keep that from happening - fashioning a safety strap. Reese puts that same trick to use after he steals a police shotgun in The Terminator. (00:49:55 - 01:49:58)

More trivia for Terminator Salvation

Question: The ending of this film seems rather vague on the actual outcome of destroying Skynet's HQ. Does that mean the humans have won the war or is Skynet still a threat? The ending of Terminator 3 would suggest the latter since there it was confirmed that Skynet is capable of moving from transferring itself from one installation to another when needed, yet here everyone seems to believe they accomplished a significant victory. So which is it?

Answer: It's suggested that they've succeeding in destroying a major node in the Skynet network, possibly the key node in that region of North America, but, no, Skynet is still a functioning entity.
