Terminator Salvation

It was pretty good! Non-canon or whatever.T-1000000000 was kinda dumb!

So, who here liked Terminator? How about T2?

Wisher has created a role for Arnold Schwarzenegger that is as surprising as his shift from villain in the first film, to John Connor’s bodyguard in the second.
[EDIT]
...fresh off the Skynet assembly line are new shape-shifting cyborgs that can morph together in Transformers-like mode, and are more lethal than anything we’ve seen in previous Terminator installments.

...says Mike Fleming HERE. The article discusses Wisher's concepts in quite a bit more detail - be sure to jump over and check it out.
Please note that...with so much left to be determined regarding the fate of further TERMINATOR movies...none of this should be seen as "a done deal" until the dust kicked up by recent events has settled & The powers That Be have had a chance to fully weigh in on where TERMINATOR should, and shouldn't, go next.
Just think of this as one possibility...

I read the script review. To those that want to see the Future War? You get your wish.

There are several new villains, and plenty of firepower. For instance, a swarm of “Night Crawlers,” 4 1/2-foot tall border sentries that are set like mines to spring up out of the ground and ambush rebel fighters with 10 MM pistols built into their wrists, and fingers and feet that are razor sharp. Also fresh off the Skynet assembly line are new shape-shifting cyborgs that can morph together in Transformers-like mode, and are more lethal than anything we’ve seen in previous Terminator installments.

Seriously?

BTW, there was a fanmade DVD of it floating around for ages with a good quality copy of the mini movie. If I find out what happened to mine, I'll let you know.

Having Kyle and Sarah meet again would be stupid.

I'll say it again: if Cameron ain't involved, who give a shit. They've had two movies without him to try and make it work and both have completely sucked.

the terminator salvation rifftrax is pretty good

Q: Why the hell do they need to keep making new future robots? We've got enough already. Just put the ones that are already designed to work for God's sake.

How is there even going to be another movie? Terminator Salvation tanked pretty badly.

Christian Bale yelled at some dudes, made things happen.

Why make the T-1000 when they had the T-800? There's an argument for it, especially the farther along SkyNet is in the war (they'll keep building better weapons).

I still haven't seen Salvation yet myself.

Rargh rargh. Snake Terminators and Motorcycle Terminators (with handy USB ports!) do not add much to the mythos.
