I don't think John can die in TDF. Or at least not without it severely fucking up the timeline. Wouldn't a version of him still exist in the future? How would he send a T-800 unit back from the future to protect himself in T2 if he's destined to die as a young boy? If he gets merked immediately after walking out of the steel mill then then he literally cannot send back Reese or Uncle Bob, thus John Connor would never exist. So how could he die at the steel mill or break Sarah out of hospital in the first place if he never existed? His entire existence is a paradox of sorts. Fucking time travel man.
Unless he just vanishes he has to still be alive somewhere at some point in the timeline or else the entire continuity as we know it would be effectively erased. if anybody could help clear this shit up it would be much appreciated.
edit: it seems that I was wrong, appreciate the replies clearing it all up fellas. This topic melts my fucking brain. I Just really want that hard R-rated Jim Cameron-esque future war movie with Norman Reedus playing JC as the protagonist. No bullshit, just straight up dark gritty visceral combat against an unstoppable killer AI who will rest at nothing to annihilate the entire human race. For that alone I hope to god he doesn't die in TDF, but a man can dream, right?
