Termination (Animatrix style Terminator release)
I searched and didn't see this mentioned.

I’m also working on an animation project called Termination, which will utilize anime and animation auteurs to do individual segments inspired by the Terminator franchise. It will be like The Animatrix, except it will have a much more international flair. This idea of Judgment Day is not something that would just affect Los Angeles, it would affect the world, so we’ll have European animators as well as Japanese animators. We’re just in early development and hope to have that ready for release in 2009.

I liked Animatrix so this has potential. The TV show, however, looks awful. Anyone else cringe when that bimbo says "Come with me if you want to live." in the commercials?

The new terminator show was okay. caught the free pilot episode on Yahoo TV last saturday. It had moments but still seemed lacking. Ill give it a few episodes to see what is gonna happen. I'll be interested in seeing an animated version of the series.

I was able to watch a "pre-release" of the show last month. I thought it would be awful, but it was actually MUCH better than I ever imagined it would be. It's kind of wierd at first with different actors in the title roles, but once you get past that, the action is really hardcore and the FX are good and the story ties in with much of the T2 timeline and characters.
The worst part is the "come with me" girl. She's just a lousy actress. But I'm actually looking foward to catching the show when it airs.

This could be awesome, or awesomely bad. I'm a fan of most of the Animatrix shorts so if they can deliver the same quality as The Second Renaissance and Flight of the Osiris then I'll be all over this.
