I think it was already out, there are midnight screenings tonight though. Can't wait to see it tomorrow. Car is fixed, 1100 later :( Least I can see Terminator now, yeeeeeeeaaaaaa :rofl:

Funny how that guy dissed T3 hard :laugh: I did like how McG compared it to the new Bonds and Batmans. Both excellent reboots. Shame they had to bring up the Charlie's Angels bit though. He's probably trying so hard to get away from that.

Why is he trying to get away from Charlie's Angels?

Also, I can't wait! Release day tomorrow and I will be watching it on Friday! :D

Charlie's Angels isn't exactly something you'd like to be known for, its not like Batman Begins or Dark Knight now is it? Things haunted him for years, always "the guy who directed Charlie's angels?!" I'm sure he'd rather it was, the guy who made that badass new terminator?!

I'll be looking forward to getting off work to go see it, I should have picked an earlier showing :s

Hopefully it will really be a good movie unlike T3

fixed :p

I''ll be happy as long as it matches T3, which was a fun actioner. This looks like it could be a fun actioner as well, albeit no having Arnie is a big, big minus. Anyone who thinks it can even possibly go near the first two are delusional.

Or what?

Or he'll punch you.

I've been reading a lot of the reviews, and it seems it's just the typical sci-fi bashing. A lot of reviews are actually mad that McG took a serious approach without any humor, which I find odd. Did they really expect Terminator: Charlie's Angels?

It was pretty good. Lot of easter eggs I guess in Tribute to the orignial films. Wasn't as badass as I thought it would be, but defiently a must buy. Whoever played Macrus defiently did better than Christian Bale and any other actor in there, IMO.

Saw a midnight release at a local theatre.

I just got back from a midnight showing and I thought it was great. The acting was superb and the special effects were top-notch. I'd give it a 4 out of 5. It's definitely up there with The Terminator and Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines; however, Terminator 2: Judgement Day is still the best.

Yeah IMO T3 was Great, don't know why people don't like it.

Yeah I try to respect critics, but they are many of them so NARROW minded they don't see certain 'good' in movies. They are almost always harsh on movies that's serious and not much humor (At least not the humor that's for mature adults)

I haven't seen the movie yet, so I can't yet judge whether the acting or the directing was great, or movie lacks humor you know.

But by Tomorrow night, I will know!

You put 1 and 3 on the same "par"?

I can see where he is coming from. In T1's time there would be no comparison but judging from a present standpoint, I think I would get about the same level of enjoyment from re-watching T1 as I would T3. T1 just feels too old and cheesy now.

I saw it yesterday, and I thought it was pretty damn good. Not a midnight showing thank God, or else I'd be in a coma here at work right now. There are a few things that I didn't like, most notably that the Terminator "theme" wasn't anywhere in the movie. But the CGI was perfect and the acting was great. Can't complain about much.

I also agree with what others have said. T4 is great, but it doesn't match T2. It's definitely way better than T3 though.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
