Neo Noir[edit]

Has Terminator got enough hallmarks to be defined as a neo-noir film?Internet Informant (talk) 05:29, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Neo-noir article makes no mention of Terminator (or James Cameron), but does include a See Also to Tech-noir. If you can find sources to support the inclusion, then yay, but as it stands there's nothing to justify the genre. Chaheel Riens (talk) 05:43, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tech-noir is the name of the discotheque in the film. Drsruli (talk) 07:04, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
