Set in around 1982, in a rural town similar to the one in "first blood", would Rambo have been able to handle the terminator without a heads up on what it actually was or could do?

Just having a conversation with some friends, I think if Rambo survived the initial attack he would figure out a way to destroy it. Wondering what the MB's opinions on it would be.

If John Rambo is the target of the Terminator, I suspect he will do just fine seeing as how, despite their namesake, the Terminator's rarely ever terminate anything other than people they are not programmed to kill.


But seriously though, Rambo wouldn't stand a chance.

This just piques my interest again on what a Stallone/Schwarzenegger movie back then could've been. It's cool now for nostalgia, but in there prime it could've been something memorable

Nope. Rambo preferred to get up close and personal with the knife which would have played right into the Terminator's strengths.

Rambo would have needed to know going in that he was up against a huge robo, um, "cybernetic organism" so he could have planned his attack accordingly.

Unless he has an industrial machine press or a foundry and some liquid nitrogen in the handle of that knife,
