(spoiler alert if you haven't seen Termy Salvy with Christian "You Don't Know How Hard This Is" Bale.)
Alright, two big issues here:
1st Big Issue: the always reliable method of
a) dousing a terminator with some lava-analogue and then promptly
b) coincidentally having some liquid-nitrogen on hand to freeze the crap
out of him doesn't take down the raging T-800 at the end of Termy Salvy. Huh.
c) YET, a big metal stick-through-the-neck DOES work? I guess that was the only
way thing they could come up with for Marcus Wright to actually do in this movie.
2nd Big Issue: they blown up the Skynet (ie Sauron-ripoff) Tower, thereby resolving the story.
a) wtf
b) why would skynet have an easlily-targeted monitoring tower when it controls a
(sky)network of GPS satellites. Is a "high" tower somehow helpful? It does glow
blue, standing out from all other surrounding skynet architecture, which could be
helpful then the T-600s, T-800s, T-1000s, and T-Xs forget how to get home at night.
c) why was there no redundancy of skynet? who cares if the building is blown?
d) In all the prior movies, the reason Skynet couldn't be defeated was that when it
became self aware it instantly copied itself into millions of computers around the
world, making erradication impossible. This movie ignores that. Awesome.
Only DS9 could refute this much story canon to easily get out of a tricky ending.
Eye of Skynet Tower
Eye of Sauron Tower
Wow.
Happy Terminating!
