Oh noes!

I stopped reading when you said Terminator 3 was your favorite. I'm sure a lot of other people will, too.

T3 lulz.
next.

"I stopped reading when you said Terminator 3 was your favorite. I'm sure a lot of other people will, too."

lol me too.

T3 the best? Certain opinions simply can't be accounted for. Was Godfather 3 the best one also?

Wow, lots of T3 haters in the room. I wouldn't go so far as to say it was my favorite but take away the BAD self-parodying humor - which btw started in T2 ("Bad to the Bone" anyone?) - and you're left with a decent action flick worthy of the franchise.

I also agree that the ending of T3 is a jaw-dropper.

hahaha you thought T3 was the best?!?!?1 hahahahahahahahahahahahahah your opinion is now null and void. And what do you need to forgive McG for? Did you expect Charlie's Angels to be good?

oh i keep hearing everywhere to lower my expectations about this movie, and the trailer's made me get a tiny bit excited, but true I'm going to watch it.

yeah,yeah the ending of T3 was shocking and unconventional. it still doesn't make up for the 90 minutes of bull**** that precedes it.

T3 was simply watchable...
T2 was the best. Do NOT deny the truth!

I loved T3 too even if not my favourite. Why you people are so stupid ???? Your posts are ridiculous...beeeehhhhhh bunch of sheep it's pathetic !!! Just watch the movie make you're own opinion instead of cryin'''

"Do NOT deny the truth!"

What truth are you talking about ??? Your truth ??? General opinion truth ???? Are you God himself ??? I want answers about meaning of life please while you're here ;) !!!!!

"bunch of sheep it's pathetic"
We're sheep because we disagree with you?
Your grammar is pathetic. The only person "cryin" here is you.

i saw it last night.. it really was very weak. it seemed like they used the first draft of script that should of had about three more drafts, and been written by someone else.. there were a few good shots, but for the most part, it blew. blew hard.

Come on...T3 is one of the worst sci-fi movies I've seen, I'd go so far as to say that the only good T movie was the first one...can't wait for Salvation and the promise of decent sequels

If this movie sucks,or is even mediocre, McG will not only be responsible for the charlie's angels abortions, he will be the man who killed the Terminator franchise. Shortly after that he'll be falling back on his psychology degree. In Hell.

The story of TS is just a footnote of the original movies. It has no plot and it doesn't further the saga in any

way. It just explains the trivial story-setup events which were referred to in one sentence in the previous movies.

And it has huge plot holes.

I'm so not watching it, it was the case I saw this all mentioned trough the trailers, and the meme of how many helicopters in the trailers the more the fail proves to be the truth.

Looking very forward to T4. Bale is a strong lead whose intensity fits John Connor perfectly. He should be able to carry the series in Arnold's absence.

Got to hand it to T3 for the fire truck chase. Outstanding.

NOOOOOOOOO

Thanks for the heads-up man, McG has always seemed about as competent as his name suggests. Think I'll miss this mess and save my £'s.

Just got back from T4 and I really liked it!
Very faithful to T1 and T2 and at the same time not trying to copy them like T3. and yes "MCG" just sounds dumb...but he did a good job.

I knew he would mess it up. I just knew it.

I don't wish to jump on the bandwagon here but.... As others have said, if you loved the awful, poorly executed plot behind T3, then you are not best placed to comment on the plot of T4! Just think for a minute, if you were given the task of coming up with an idea for how the world ends, showing the carnage and destruction that Skynet visits upon humanity, would you really have gone with what they did with T3? I seriously doubt it..

I'm seeing it this weekend and, oddly, the poor reviews are making me even more excited. What is going on in this movie that's giving people this overwhelming negative reaction? I'm too intrigued not to find out.

I've been reading that one thing it is is a fairy decent action flick. Those who've seen it, it is this true? Was it at least a heart-stopping action blockbuster?

yeah me too, it has to be seen, i just hope it's good. I've always liked Bale.

Just to sound TRULY nutty, give 'Terminators', Asylum Movie's take on this genre, a try. Now I know the average reaction to the word 'Asylum' is 'Those guys suck footballs thru straws', but 'Terminators is SO far above the rest of their other movies it's VERY impressive. It's more true to the concept than T3 (the Terminator's just a killing machine who can't stop because nobody knows how to turn him off!) he's chillingly believable, the action's good and the few special effects are very well used - they're up to the standard of TV series like Numb3rs which, considering the movie's budget, is impressive. I haven't seen the new Terminator movie yet, but I was VERY impressed by this so-called 'mockbuster'. Give it a shot!

my god...the first one was truly only the one worth seeing.

atleast THE ROAD is coming out this year. Maybe alls not lost.

Is T4 really better than T3?

it wasn't great but it wasn't horrible either it may have lacked in some places but just watching a CGI Arnold beat the crap out of bale made everything worth it

To the person above: the meaning of life is 42

my only reaction possible to T4 was "meh"

it barely has any emotional content to it, and there's no intensity or suspense to the film. I wasn't expecting a great film, but...
T4 was just a generic action film set in the Terminator universe, peppered with distractingly bad references to the previous films.
Bale's perfectly cast, but he's given nothing to do but play the brooding action hero. It was interesting to see things placed on a larger scale, and having Michael Ironside in a film is always a plus (even if he got less than a page of dialogue).
but everything about the film was completely forgettable. it's such a lost opportunity, just as the TV series was (same producers likely don't make this a coincidence - both played it safe), though I actually enjoyed season one of the Sarah Connor Chronicles far more than T4.
waste of two hours. truly.

McG more like Mcfool. What a terrible film, I didn't have to pay to see it, and I felt ripped off.
Only the special effects were worthy of any mention, the acting, casting, writing and edit were TERRIBLE.

after reading comments... had to add mine:
I didnt like T3 at all, it was aimed at children.
Saying that, Im not surprised at QEs comments. After reading some of his other reviews. Its got to the stage where if QE likes it, I dont. If he doesn’t, I love it. Just different opinion i guess...
T4 was fantastic, it has so much to offer the viewer, it extends the story and is full of action, new robots, set in an impeccable PA world. Bale as Conor, while he was very 1D was perfect for the plot.
The one thing I must say is that the Blu Ray version enhances the viewing enjoyment tenfold. If you watch this movie, make sure its in HD as I was blown away and is probably the best I have seen on a blu ray disc to date. And ive seen a lot!

People, you should go and watch some Godard.
