Terminator 4: Abandon all Hope

There is no God

McG Helms Next "Terminator" (November 18th 2007)

Same writers as T3.

If I ever want a world class blowjob - one so great that I can die knowing that I have experienced the pinnacle of all that is pleasure - I know who to find. How in the fucking world else does "McDumbfuckingNameWithTheWorld'sWorstMovies" get to direct ANY film?

McG makes Ewe Boll look like Francis Ford Coppolla.

Wasnt it kevin smith who said in one of his dialogs "In Hollywood you fail upwards"

Although I did like Charlies Angels Full Throttle.

I thought Rise of the Machines was pretty damned badass considering there was not high expectations for it.

On this we disagree. Or as the T-101 would say "Talk to the hand."

T1 and T2 were so amazing that I hate to see them make crappy movie after movie based on the awesomeness that was the original 2. But this happens all the time in movies and it is so sad. The studios are milking the franchise for all that it is worth.

PS: Odds are this movie doesn't even have Arnold in it making it des uberghey.

I hated T3, and I'm not McG's biggest fan. So this may be the first Terminator movie to which I give a straight-up pass. Probably won't even bother seeing it, barring some sort of unseen awesomeness that gets reported about it.

Quineloe · 11-19-2007, 02:34 PM

a Terminator without Arnold? That doesn't make any sense.

Arakkis · 11-19-2007, 02:38 PM

I am interested to know why people didn't like T3. I thought they pulled off the end of the world pretty convincingly. There was a little too much cornyness from Arnold for my tastes, but barring that I thought it was solid.

The Ancient · 11-19-2007, 02:41 PM

They pissed all over Cameron's story.

manslayer · 11-19-2007, 02:43 PM

T3 wasn't completely terrible. It just didn't live up to the standards set by the first 2, particularly the original.

They messed up the continuity of the previous two, which I suppose is acceptable, given the way the movie ended. At the same time, I thought the plot was cheesy, the action was sub-par, and the female Terminator was a major step down in "coolness" from the T-1000. I mean, what was her power again? That she could control other machines and small appliances? Big deal. T-1000 could shapeshift and melt through stuff!

The plot in all of them was cheesy really, just because of the huge holes in it. This dude comes from the future, gets a chick pregnant, and he becomes the savior and sends his own father back in time so he can be born? Of course the movie was fun enough we could all ignore it for the most part.

The action in the first two was bad ass, No one could dispute that. The action in the third one was actually good, but it didn't have the same style as the first two, so it fell short imo.

The girl terminator was much more powerful than the T-1000. She had all of his powers plus she could shift into machines/guns, instead of just knives. The actress herself wasn't as cool as the T-1000 actor however.

Not sure if I'll watch the new ones or not. I'll probably just wait until they hit dvd=p

t3 wasn't ALL bad, hot actresses, kinda funny when connors finds out that arnold isn't programmed to follow his orders but the other girl.

"wait, so how do i die? wait nevermind i dont want to know"

".... SO, how did he die?"

Grooverider · 11-19-2007, 03:26 PM

T1000 was fucking scary. How he talked, how he moved, everything. Basically the character was intensely menacing.

The first two Terminator movies held a sense of dirt and grime. T3 really lost this appeal unfortunately, however - I still thought it was a decent flick.

This will go down as the unholiest slaughtering of a good movie line(t1 and t2) and only bested by the shit Alien movies(A3 & up).
