Terminator Salvation: First Draft Parody Script



Opens with a boring scene in a research lab. This is unnecessarily long in an attempt to make us care about Marcus.

Christian Bale
I'm Batman... I mean, I'm John Connor.

Commander
Would you please stop monologuing and do your job?

John Connor
Yes of course. I'll try to rescue those people by chasing a fast jet plane in a slow moving helicopter...alone. What could go wrong?

He crashes then gets thrown around by a T600.

John Connor
Can't you just rip my heart out like Schwarzenegger did in the first movie?

T600
That's coming with the next software upgrade. Skynet  2019.

Cut to resistance command, cleverly hidden in a self sustaining submarine.

Colonel America
Down here we will be safe from Skynet's satellite surveillance.

Colonel Britain
What about all of our helicopter's air planes?

Colonel America
No one's seemed to think of that.....

Officer
Dont' worry I've got a distraction here. John Connor wants to come aboard, he just jumped into the ocean.

Colonel America
Idiot! Try and find him in this raging ocean.

*****

John Connor
Hail me.

Colonel America
I'm the resistance leader, don't get confident just because you're better than me.

John Connor
I had to come here because every time I call you hang up.I do have feelings you know? Also for someone hidden under the ocean I thought you would appreciate the intelligence.

Colonel America
Are you calling me stupid.

John Connor
I... Look just give me your super top secret plans because I never put myself in a position where I could get caught.

Marcus wanders around a devastated LA. He doesn't remember what's happened but he is very calm about it all.

Marcus
Hmm that's a very dangerous looking Robot, but then if I talk to it I may find out it's a vending machine.

He gets rescued by Kyle Reese who destroys the T600 in a ridiculous manner more suited for the A Team.

Marcus
Why didn't you use your gun?

Kyle Reese
That's the Terminator's style not mine.

Marcus
That's stupid! But I'll stay with you anyway due to a timely attack.

Kyle Reese
We stay down by day... actually we move around by day and get a good night's sleep. It's a shame because the future fighting looked far cooler in the first 2 films. Still we can't go pleasing the fans by sticking to a few simple rules.

They escape LA, with Reese learning how to drive incredibly well in just 10 seconds. Then they're attacked by a giant transformer which believes grabbing people with huge unwieldy arms to be more efficient than just gassing them.

Marcus
I'm alive? I'm alive! I knew those diving lessons would come in handy. Now to cut down this resistance  pilot in a way that would likely break her legs.


They go to Connor's base which is protected by anti Terminator mines. One attaches to  Marcus's leg, dazing him rather than blowing him to pieces.

John Connor
The question is who bought cheap mines?

Kate
No the question is, what's with the Terminator/human hybrid?

John Connor
And why is it more advanced than the other Terminators?

Marcus
And why are you going to trust me to infiltrate Skynet?

John Connor
I'm human and go with my heart. Just as people did when they trusted machines with all our military defences... Well, safe journey.

John Connor wanders into Skynet central ALONE!

John Connor
Why am I doing this alone? Especially as my soldiers will fly in later without any trouble.

Director MCG
This is more exciting and tense.

John Connor
What about having Terminators that can actually terminate someone​?

Director MCG
Just get on with it.

*****

Skynet
Good morning Marcus. I'm going to explain our plans as any intelligent villain would do.

Marcu
This is getting far too much like ' I Robot ' I'm going to save Connor.

Skynet
You can't I sent Schwarzenegger to kill him. I could have sent the thousands of Terminators which are just loitering around the factory. But for a computer that killed billions of humans by nuking them, I am surprisingly sporting.

Marcus
You at least gave Schwarzenegger a gun right?

Skynet
Err no...

Marcus
Ha-ha.

Marcus runs off avoiding the thousands of guards, Connor clearly taught him a few things.

Skynet
I knew I should have just kept him talking with the whole prequel or sequel debate.

Despite having a miniature canon on him John shoots the Schwarzenegger with a gun he knows will do no harm. Schwarzenegger just plays with him as well.

John Connor
You're not going to rip my  heart out either?

Schwarzenegger
Skynet 2019!

John Connor
Right... Shame this script doesn't explain why a Terminator in America has an Austrian accent. Ow! Stop throwing me around it's getting really repetitive and boring.

Director MCG
Hmm that CGI face is getting expensive.

John Connor
I'll handle that.

Arnold Schwarzenegger
Hey you're stripping my ability to relate with humans.

John Connor
You never had it.

The battle goes on but the T800 still doesn't kill him. Yet he manages to disable semi Terminator Marcus in less than a minute.

John Connor
I will now kill you in the same way that you died in Terminator 2.

This doesn't work for some reason but puts the Terminator on pause for a minute.

T800
Where are all of the other Terminators when you need them?

John Connor
Where are the rest of the resistance when you need them.

Marcus finally kills the T800 and gets Connor out of Skynet.

Marcus
That was easy.

John Connor
If a little drawn out.

Mute girl hands Connor the detonator to set off a nuclear explosion which he uses despite being just a couple of hundred feet from the blast. They survive?

Marcus
You can have my heart.

Kate
Wont that raise a big ethical dilema?

Marcus
No I don't think the audience can sit through any more of this movie I'll just brush it off with two lines of dialouge.

John Connor is saved and ready for transport just minutes after a heart transplant.

John Connor
I better mention that Skynet hasn't been completely destroyed. There is no sequel but what someone else makes loads of money out of for themselves.

Terminator Two Judgement Day: First Draft Parody Script


Opens with a cool future war sequence.

Audience
Wait a minute what's with the music? We want the Terminator theme.

Composer Brad Fidel
Err well I'll try to fit it in at the end of the film.

The two Terminators arrive through time.

T1000
Despite the ominous music I am going to act like a potential hero. I'm sure this will keep the audience guessing.

T101
I'm not going to kill anyone in this bar. I'm also going to put these sunglasses on in the middle of the night to look cool. Of course I'm still a logical, ruthless and deadly cyborg like in the first movie.

John Connor
I have an annoying voice and will be in most of the movies scenes.

Audience
We didn't come to a Terminator movie to watch a squeaky kid.

Director James Cameron
I challenged myself to make him a plausible future leader by the end of the film. You'll like him more than Nick Stahl.

Audience
That's for sure.

*****

Dr Silberman
So Sarah do you still believe Terminator's are real?

Sarah Connor
Yes... I mean no.

Dr Silberman
I see. What about your dreams of the scrolls, the lamp stands, the lion and the lamb.

Sarah Connor
It is a little confusing but it's going to happen. It will happen!

John plays fighting games in an arcade which he apparently needs $300 to do.

John's friend
Don't you ever wish something exciting would happen?

John Connor
Please don't say that.

The T1000 shows up and tries to kill John but he escapes on his bike.


T1000
If I had as many guns as the first Terminator did this would be over by now.

John Connor
Yeah what is with that? It's not exactly hard to get guns in America.

The Terminator saves John on the bike he stole that apparently has suspension from the future.

T101
For a kid that was shot at, almost crushed by a truck, and rescued by a cyborg with a poor grasp of the English language, you are taking this very well.

John Connor
Yeah well , life was more exciting with my real mum. I want to blow stuff up again. Let's go and rescue her.

T101
OK.

John Connor
OK?

T101
I am programmed to protect and obey you.

John Connor
How did I manage to reprogramme you​?

T101
That's not important John. What is important is that I will do whatever you say.

John Connor
I'll find this extremely cool and corrupting for one minute. That will be enough time for me to learn not to abuse power and you can learn that killing people is wrong.

T101
But I haven't killed anyone any way.

John Connor
...Let's just go.

They get into the high security hospital by passing just one security guard?

Sarah Connor
Why do I end up with all the guards?

Director James Cameron
I just wanted to show that you're no longer so sweet and defenceless, sweet pie.

They escape with the T1000 chasing them. Anyone who has seen the Simpson parody of this can't help but smile.

Sarah Connor
That was pretty easy, you couldn't blow off parts of the old Terminator with one shot.

Sarah takes them to get guns, lots of guns.

John Connor
I guess it's hard to show emotion as a cyborg?

Arnold Schwarzenegger
No, I just struggle to act.

Sarah goes to kill Mile's Dyson the longest lasting black person in a sci fi film up until now.

Mile's Dyson
If I live a little longer I could be useful.

Sarah Connor
OK, you can have a redeeming death instead.

Mile's Dyson
I can be the salvation.

Sarah Connor
No that will be later.

They get into Cyberdyne  by passing just one security guard.

Sarah Connor
Are you sure this place has all the information on Skynet? They're not going to make a come back in 10 years?

Mile's Dyson
Actually now you mention it the military does ah!

Mile's Dyson dies blowing up Cyberdyne. The T1000 turns up late... again.

T1000
I think I need a processor upgrade. Still better late than never, I'm going to get you now.

The T1000 chases them in the most dangerous vehicle he can find and ends up getting frozen in a comic pose.

T101
Hey T1000 cool it... I need a vacation.

Sarah Connor
The Terminator making jokes, that is so sad. Ow!

T1000
Even though I can imitate your voice perfectly as I will demonstrate in a minute, I want you to call to John.

The Terminator attacks the T1000 but gets beaten up with a metal pole.

T1000
Kyle Reese eat your heart out.

The Terminator comes back to life using his back up Duracell battery.

T101
The T1000 really should have known I could do that.

John Connor
I could have escaped but for the sake of tension I will stand 10 metres in front of you.

T1000
And I will still fail to kill you, I'm meant to be advanced what's wrong with me?

John Connor
Shame your arm can't transform into a flame thrower.

T1000
Don't be ridiculous.

The T1000 stands right next to one of only things in the world that can kill him. He gets knocked in and dies very very slowly.

Director James Cameron
Got to show you what our new effects can do. But I will never go over the top with CGI, honest.

Sarah Connor
I'm hap... I mean sad you're dying.

The Terminator dies making the thumb up sign. Good job the movie ends when it does.

Director James Cameron
Now I've ended the film and franchise on a optimistic note.

Director Jonathan Mostow
Sorry dude I have other plans.
