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

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
