Terminator Salvation : The Future Begins


Recommended Posts

Just had a few listens, and am NOT a fan of the new soundtrack. Never liked Danny Elfman's work anyhow - but compared to how the Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles deals with the themes, this just comes off as "typical" to me...

Lots of T3 haters here, and I really don't understand why. Ok, maybe a couple scenes were a little corny, but c'mon. They nuked the planet! How do you expect to go from T2 to T4 without Judgment Day? I can't wait to see T4, but I have a couple suspicions about it that I may not really like if so much if I'm right. I'll have to reserve judgment until I've seen it, and Christian Bale rocks, so I'll probably enjoy it regardless, it'll just be a matter of degree.

Like Corris said, the ending was one of the better scenes the overall movie was just not nearly as intense as the previous one's. While T1 was the best as far as story goes imo. T2 was a great thriller and great scenes. T3 seemed to be trying to hard to be like the previous movies. Plus I believe T4 has an intro that explains what happened that lead to judgement day so T3 wouldn't be "required" Anyone who gets to see it feel free to tell us if there's an intro describing what happened before we get to 2018. I won't get to see it until Thursday like normal people! what a jip!

Everyone says it needs Arnie but haven't seen it. Wait til you see to say if he needed him or not. Besides his character is in it regardless of brief it is!

And hell ya Tech, 3 more!!! :woot: My damn car battery is being drained slowly, I gotta take it to the mechanic tomorrow, can't have it dying on me in the middle of the night after the movie. That'd be rather unpleasant.

Btw, it'd be pretty funny if Skynet were real and the internet was created to deploy it everywhere. Talk about being screwed :p

Naw, I'll like them both but Michael Bay will keep me from loving it. There will be that scene or 2 that you just think the whole time, Bay forced them to include this :laugh: Those reviews are pretty brutal but I have faith :yes: The first few reviews a week ago said it was good but maybe too much action. I'll reserve judgement until I see it.

I saw a sneak preview last night and it was awesome. I wish Christian Bale would burn in hell still though. Yes he's a great actor, but after the incident with the stagehand and him bitching him out for like 3 1/2 minutes, I'm convinced he's a total jackass and I wouldn't want to meet him if I had the opportunity. Not to mention, seeing the guy go from the physique he had from first, Equilibrium, to the Machinist, Then from the Machinist to Batman Begins, I'm convinced the guy is on steroids. His outburst on set shows that too.

Aside from that, he was alright in the movie and not the star by a long shot. I think it was better than the other 3.

Arnold makes an appearance too. Just wish he didn't make the appearance in the nude. :-|

I hope the story is a lot better than the last one because it sucked... from the trailers I have seen it looks to be a good film, but trailers work in a way to get you out of your seat and make you go an watch the film, by craming all the best bits into the film and then when you actually watch the film it's utter ****?

The writers are the same as T3 but the director is McG who I think is a great director and probably the best person for this film. Some viewers might be going...

:huh: go http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McG"]here

    • I totally disagree. Very little good comes out of governments all around the world manipulating everything they can and usually the people are not the benefactors. What you say about being restricted and expensive sounds almost like the arguments against firearms and why banning them will protect people as if making something illegal somehow will prevent the criminals from having and using them. AI being far less mainstream could simply mean the average person will not benefit, but "big brother" and the corporations will benefit, which is almost for sure NOT a good thing.

    • "connect with audiences" is the most obvious corporate speak you can think of. I only bought Need for Speed from EA because it was the only racing game with cops in existence and I dig that. Now that they killed off NFS franchise, I have nothing to spend money on. EA is officially dead for me, just like Ubisoft which I've been boycotting for some 20 years now...
