Re: Terminator 5
Salvation was an absolute turd. A complete fucking mess of a movie that shit all over the Terminator mythology. I know a lot of people didn't like the third one but it was a masterpiece compared to Salvation.

Re: Terminator 5
Terminator Salvation would have been better if the entire thing was about Marcus Wright. I really like that character and I thought Sam Worthington was the best thing in the movie.

Do you think you chased 'em away fast enough with your torches and pitchforks?

Re: Terminator 5
T4 was a good action film. It wasn't a good Terminator film.
T3 can go fuck itself. Plotholes, horrible color tone to the film, bad script, some iffy fx (though interesting). yeah..it just was kind of lazy.

Re: Terminator 5
I think T4's no doubt a better film than T3, which was a guilty pleasure film, but looking back at it... a lazy, soulless cash grab of a film. Like the Rat, McG can shoot a good looking, competent film, but he couldn't edit or provide a strong enough narrative for anyone to care about it.
I don't know how in the world they think a T5 would work, but I'd be willing to give it another shot.

Re: Terminator 5
wish they'd do a T5 that was set in the future talking about T1 but dealt with the making of Arnold's terminator more than John Conner and then Arnold's Terminator goes and fights the Terminator from T2 and have it all take place where T3 occurred and Arnold has sex with the girl terminator and we can see a mechabirth.

Then, put the franchise to rest until they decide it's time for a remake.

Re: Terminator 5
I don't see how you can feel so strongly about T3 but then give T4 a pass. And it wasn't a good action film. It was stupid, and the action was like being pounded in the face with a hammer repeatedly.

Re: Terminator 5
It was supposed to be, and Bale was supposed to play Marcus. John Connor was a minor role. But when Bale insisted on playing John Conner, they changed the movie and made it about him.

Re: Terminator 5
I still wonder why we've never seen a proper extended cut with the Crews footage reinstated.
The first film was infamous for there being a visible Terminator pecker. haven't seen the movie in years, however, and have no desire to confirm if we see his Judgment Cock.

Re: Terminator 5
T4 is as visually stunning as it is vapid and soulless. If I ever watch it again, I'd prefer to do so on mute. Everything about the writing is terrible. Terrible. But it does look purdy.

Re: Terminator 5
I thought T4 was a nice change of pace. Sure, it's flawed, and marginal at best, but FFS, they did the "goes back in time to kill John Connor" thing for three straight movies...

Having all that restored on blu made the movie feel more complete.
Edit: And yes, more Ironside makes anything better!

Re: Terminator 5
I don't know why some of you insist that in the first film we get an actual glimpse of Arnold's der schwanz(wishful thinking maybe?) but I assure you we don't. Check out Pumping Iron and keep the controller at hand ready to hit pause if that's what you're into.
