The Terminator Movies

John Connor is killed off less than 5 minutes into the movie and the movie itself is really bad. There you go, you don't need to see this now.

Watched the original Terminator with my boys this weekend. It warms my heart that they love the film as much as I did. It's hard not spending a few seconds while watching not getting disappointed that Salvation didn't try to mimic the original film's future just a little bit. I don't hate Salvation but it's not the future Terminator film I've been waiting 30+ years to see.

It's such a great movie with a great score and a relentless pace. I love it to pieces. And agree about the future scenes.

The second film takes everything we remember from the first movie and pokes fun at it. The rest of the sequels attempt to make sense out of something that isn't supposed to, similar to Star Wars and every other franchise that spawned from a single great film. All you have to do is watch the first TERMINATOR to see how much they get wrong with these endless crummy films. It's all about the tone and the atmosphere. It's a thriller and more of a horror film than a goofy action film. But they've been stuck in goofy action mode since part 2.

For me at least.

Kyle Reese definitely said living flesh over metal endoskeleton and that man had too much integrity to lie to us. I say, if it's living it ages!

He also said "I don't know tech stuff".

HOW IS NOBODY BOTHERED BY THE TERMINATOR AGING?????

Indifference to anything post T3.

But seriously, if we have to accept that John Connor sent his own father back in time, then anything is fair game.

I refuse to believe this haha. It would rot. Not age. There's no blood source to keep the cells alive

[Dom D]

Hmmmmm. No.

Elaborate!

[Mark Tolch]

Hmmmmm. No.

Wouldn't he though? Living flesh on a robotic shell. The flesh would have to age.

Looks like the story leak is true. It might be alright.

[Ian Jane]

New trailer.

It really does. Not feeling Biebernator at all. I'm this close to completely checking out of current Hollywood. Get back to me again when agenda pushing takes a waaaaay back seat behind good filmmaking. In the mean time I'll stick to the old stuff, thank you veeery much.

Best thing I ever did was to stop supporting Hollywood financially or otherwise. I haven't paid money to see a Hollywood film since the late 90s/early 2000s...I should've done it sooner. I swore back then they would never get another shekel out of me.

^^ I really dig everything about Terminator 3, including the story. I watch T2 just for the scenes with Robert Patrick.

I done bothering with anything other than the first three films at this point. I could watch the original on a loop.

[Mark Tolch]

Yes and yes.
