Talk:Cromartie (Terminator)

message: What in god's name is a 'cromartie'? I keep seeing this word. Cromarty highschool, the Cromarty enemies from Viewtiful Joe...
: As far as I know, it's just a name. Kind of a weird name for the show's villain, though. Although "Mart" as in Marty/Martin means "War" in Greek. Joylock (talk)

text: Cromartie Scottish name and place. It did seem a lot like they were punning on "Chrome" in the series though. Without suitable citations this is all just speculation and not suitable for addition to the article. -- Horkana (talk) 10:24, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: What is a Cromartie?

message: According to The Arnold Fans Cameron Phillips is the Series 888 Terminator, not Cromartie; although Get Terminated suggests that Cromartie is the Series 888.I would guess that the latter site is what various fan sites have based this detail on.  Pretty thin evidence either way to me. —MJBurrage(T•C) 08:07, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: They both had virtually identical HUDs in their "Terminator Vision" mode, with Cromartie in traditional red and Cameron in blue. --64.123.119.253 (talk) 05:12, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

text: As shown in the episode Queen's Gambit, there's another T-888, the one that killed the Resistance fighters and that shot Derek Reese and that Cameron later deactivated. Derek and Sarah both call it a T-888 during the episode. I'd suggest that both Cromartie and that Terminator are Series 888 models. Carter (the Coltan procurement Terminator) may or may not be one—it is, according to Cameron, too short, and its endoskeletal points don't match Cromartie's.—Observ (talk) 17:13, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Reference to anime? 

message: i haven't seen anyone mention this anywhere. Am i the only one that noticed that the main chassis (torso) on cromartie's endoskeleton is vastly different then other terminators. The head and limbs seem the same, though,  —Preceding unsigned comment added by The Great Morgil (talk • contribs) 03:32, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

message: You know it's kind of common knowledge among terminator fans that Cromartie is a T-888... might want to put that in here somewhere.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.143.86.178 (talk) 22:58, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Cromartie in TSCC.jpg

message: Does anyone have an idea of the last time one of the characters referred to him as Cromartie?  In other words, does the Cromartie identity seem fixed or should this page perhaps be renamed to something more generic?  I agree it's convenient to write "Cromartie" rather than something like "the enemy Terminator"; I'm just wondering how in touch this is with the show. -Fritter  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.152.245.18 (talk) 18:14, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a settled issue as far as I'm concerned, but in the finale, Cameron's HUD does indeed identify "Agent Kester" as Cromartie, so that is definitely his name.Fritter (talk) 17:17, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Useful sources for rewrite 

message: Maybe I missed where they said it was a Silicon CPU but I find this extremely hard to believe. The neural net CPUs were described as made out of a "Room temperature" super-conductor. Furthermore Silicon would never in any circumstances, reach the desired Data output to power an artificially intelligent machine. But I'll be fair, it's a Sci-Fi, but let me ask this, why would Skynet develope it's CPUs with a substance that would need constant liquid cooling lest it risk instant meltdown (If and only if you managed to get a silicon chip to move that much data, it'd instantly melt. Heck it almost instantly melts if you raise the clockspeed above 3.7GHz with passive cooling). Victis Kato (talk) 12:31, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Silicon CPU? 

message: I got rid of the reference to Derek's armor piercing incendiary bullets being used by John.  This might have made sense for a kill shot, but John clearly uses a semi-automatic pistol for the shot.  The bullets of Derek's used to kill the previous Terminator were Raufoss Mk 211, .50 caliber shells used in a very large rifle or machine gun, such as the Barret M82 used by Derek in the earlier episode, and not a semi-automatic pistol.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.31.173.184 (talk) 16:21, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
