How Dutch From ‘Predator’ Became The Model For The T-800 In ‘Terminator’ | Fan Theory | In Theory

Could Major Dutch be the T-800? This theory connecting 'Predator' and the 'Terminator' series thinks so.

The Predator, Aliens, and Terminator universes are connected in more ways than one. They’ve shared antagonists, and sometimes characters like Ripley in the spinoff comics. but Cracked writer David Israel Nunez takes the overlapping franchises to a new level with his theory which connects the origin of Terminator‘s T-800 killing machine to Major Dutch Schaefer — the musclebound U.S. government killing machine in Predator. Basically, Dutch was the basis for the T-800.
