I was thinking about that too. Good movie to watch, but looking back it had a lot of holes

It felt like this movie was more about Sam Worthington's character rather then John Connor's...Horrible movie though.

Well, it would if you turned off your brain. There were just so many inconsistencies and just weird stupidity going on:
Spoiler!

Speaking of timeline, they didn't make it a point that John Connor knew a lot more about what was "supposed to happen" and supposedly one of the big plot points was supposed to be that the T-800 is being build almost 20 years before lit should've been developed by Skynet, and that this future is very different from the one where the original Kyle Reese came back from.

Ah well. I'll just watch the rest of the Sarah Connor Chronicles and let that cover over this crap. :D

if a movie sound system causes my seat to shake, its too fucking loud. seriously.

OMFG I thought I was the only person who thought this. Sometimes the theatre is just too damn loud. I guess they just have a kid running the cinema arbitrarily decide what the volume should be?

Ulic Qel-Droma 05-27-2009 06:52 AM

yeah, so i just saw it.

i say it's okay. it's just an action flick.

i still think terminator 2 was the last real terminator.

Spoiler!


i'd say star trek was a better movie overall. actually in every category.

but i think he got a huge salary, so guess i dont feel bad for him. haha
[/spoiler]

i read about this. the original script had less focus on the john connor character, but they had to make it more or else bale wouldn't sign on... i guess from what everyone else is saying in their reviews it didn't work so well. no wonder why bale had that hissy fit :p

Meh, I was expecting to be blown away, but I came out unimpressed. They should have at least had an all out battlefield scene with machines vs. humans with lots of blood and gore, crazy explotions/stunts. All they had were a few shots of the T800 walking around trying to act gangster. They also should have placed more emphasis on John Connor instead of those corny newb characters.

so fucking bad

I think the issue with any Terminator movie that was made after T2 (One of the best science fiction movies ever made, if not THE best) is that everybody will hold it to that standard. The first two happened to be directed by James Cameron, who, say what you will about him being an egomaniac, is one of the best directors around. McG did as well as he could have with the script he had, considering his Charlie's Angels movies were almost unwatchable. The key with the first 2 movies is that Cameron put so much character development into the film that you actually cared about what happened to them, and that's missing from the last 2 films (with the exception of John Connor and Marcus Wright in the latest film). Overall I thought it was a solid movie, 7.5/10.

the sounds were excellent

LegitJeans 06-06-2009 03:35 PM

I watched the premiere to Terminator Salvation.. The movie was okay.. Action scenes can be improved... the story is a bit confusing though... Not enough bang and explosions... I loved the terminator bikes though... inspired by ducati...

dark0821 06-08-2009 10:42 AM

i think the movie was mostly abt the action.. which was decent i guess

j1mmyi3 06-11-2009 08:33 AM

cant believe night of the museum beat out terminator

Hondaracer 06-11-2009 01:02 PM

This movie sucked and I only watched a cam capture I downloaded

The action scenes were even weak I wanted nuclear explosions, terminator battles etc

Yes, I think I know what your talking about. Why would the early Skynet model be wearing a bandana..

It didnt satisfy all 7 liberal art parameters but hey, I thought it was worth 3 stars.
