Sorry its taken a while to get to your question... but killer robots from the future have been playing havoc with my timelines. Anyway The original 1984 film Terminator is one of the classics of modern cinema. Its an action movie with more depth than people give it credit for, raising issues of lost humanity, war, and killer cyborgs from the future.
The latest remake on the other hand is pure movie going drivel thats just an attempt to take more money from fans who no longer care about it. Convoluted time lines, plot holes and poor scripts don't help. In the word of Film critic Mark Kermode "It is a dystopic nightmare of unimaginably bad film making, where Christian Bale loses the will to act, and every special effect is all the less special for being in this film.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
