Arnold Schwarzenegger miscast as the Terminator

- Because having Danny Devito going around killing Sarah Connors would be unintentionally laughable.
- Arnold was originally interested in Reese with Lance Henrisken envisioned for terminator. But to have Arnold in the movie and NOT play the terminator when he has a naturally robotic voice and accent, a naturally wooden and expressionless acting style, an otherworldly body, and a face shape that looks like the skull of the endoskeleton, would be a missed opportunity to say the least. For a film with limited budget, the plausibility pays for itself.
- They went for infiltration with the T-1000, but even he was slim and agile and fit. Designing the skin if the machines to look like Americans with cholesterol problems would be silly. The T-800 was a bulkier model so it’d make sense a tall muscular skin would fit over it. It works and Arnold’s perfect for it.
- Arnold still passes as human, and bleeds, so the infiltration concept still works.
- When people have realistic human-looking sex dolls, they go for perfection. They don’t want to have a sex doll with fake pimples and varicose veins designed on it so it looks more “human.” Humans like attractive.
Never lose your desire.
