Terminator Salvation

[DreamNeonBlack]

OK, just got back from seeing it and...


It was good, not oh my god great! McG confirmed for me that he is a shitty director.

He did a decent job but really sucked the life and drama out of a lot of the story elements. Having read the book before hand I was curious to see how he would handle certain elements, and he basically just ignored them. LOL

he also altered the ending, which ending up being a bit cheesy and reminded me of the Tin Man from the wizard of oz for some reason.

Overall, a good time and worth seeing but Star Trek kicked it's ass.


What do YOU think of the film?

 

[Liverslapper]

Viewing it tonight.

 

[Metalmilitia2000]

Saw it 2 weeks ago at a trade screening and thought it was excellent. Saw it again last night at our premiere and thought it was even better... Easily better than 3, and I enjoyed 3 for what it was...

 

[Anvil]

Not a fan of the series, Probably won't bother seeing this one.

MORE STAR TREK THOUGH.

 

[Liverslapper]

MORE STAR TREK THOUGH.

THIS! <3





the movie was......ok. Not great but not awful. I would rather read the books, and terminator II is still by far the best one created.

I think the first edges the second. Basically they're Cameron babies. No Cameron, not so good.

The trailer for T4 was the best thing about seeing "Angels & Demons" a few days ago... I'm slightly aroused.

Haven't yet seen Star Trek... something just tells me that I'm not gonna like it. The Onion summarized my fears pretty well.

The Onion summarized your fear of seeing AWESOME films?

 

[slashvanyoung]

Yep. That's right.

 

[derek]

Hey, so this is not too bad.

Also, Star Trek was ridiculously brilliant.

Also, Star Trek was ridiculously brilliant.

Zachary Quinto did an amazing job portraying Spock.

 

[Super Mahrio]

I dunno. I might see it considering that the stupid sequel to Night at the Museum is the only other movie that came out this week. Who knows. After all it is Christian Bale. Hmmm.

 

[Chromatose]

Yeah, pretty much.

 

[Sentient 6]

kind of a let down, it could of been so much better, it's pretty sad when everyone is saying it wasn't THAT bad, and Christian Bale has got to stop using the fucking Batman voice

 

[DreamNeonBlack]

But was I correct with the feeling that it was "hurry up and get through this line so we can get back to tha action or CGI"?

Both endings were let downs, the book and the movie ending. So I can't bust on McG for that. But he totally rushed through any possible dramatic elements just for more action.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

I liked it alot. damn good movie.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Yeah it was alright. Needed more Robots. Very ending sucked (I mean, the girl holding the robot hand?!)

 

[Calamitas1786]

I was hoping it would be more of a trench warfare kind of thing like the showed at in T2.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Yeah, that woulda been cool. Also, I was a little surprised at how well equipped the "resistance" was. Submarines, planes and helicopters and fancy walky-talkies. Made them seem much less desperate.

 

[Enemy242]

I'm curious to see this but definitely not enough to go to the theater, after T2 it just started to suck extreme ass and I don't need another everything blowing up action movie if the actual plot isn't that great.
