You've gotta be kidding me

I couldn't wait to see this movie and now that I did, I haven't been this disappointed in a really long time. There are numerous plot holes, time line contradictions and scenes where the special effects were clearly obvious. First of all, the movies takes place as if T2 never happened. The whole premise behind T2 was the creation of the machines based on finding the chip and the arm from T1. After their destruction, the movie should have ended. Now, the movie is based off a secret government agency creating machines that are now being taken over by a "virus". The worst part is, after all the effects, all the action and even the humor which could have saved the movie...judgment day still happens?!?!?!?
Problem #1- in the movie, Sarah Connor dies in 1997. The problem with this is that T2 was based in 97 and she certainly didn't look like she was on her last leg. Problem #2- The TX was designed to terminate Connor's lieutenants, yet she magically runs into Connor in a situation too preposterous to believe. Lastly, when she does find him, she has numerous opportunities to kill him, but never does. Can't figure that one out. Problem #3- Clearly Connor survived judgment day, as did Brewster. So what was the point of getting them to the bomb shelter when they survived the attack in the first place? Why on Earth make judgment day still happen? My jaw literally hit the floor when the bombs went up and the screen went dark. I was so disappointed.
What a waste of time, energy and money. If you haven't seen it, don't bother. If you have, my sympathies.
