I figure since there is not one yet, we can use this for all discussion for the 4th Terminator film in the series, and the first to be rated PG-13. I figure there will prolly be spoilers around this weekend in the states, as this will not be released across the pond until the beginning of next month, sadly.

So I guess to start it off.... they made a Video Game for the movie. Review is below.

Only around 4 hours? No online play? Only Split Screen for 2 players? FOR $60???



Movie should be much better. If it is not, then hopefully Christian Bale's performance will shine through it.

Anyone else intrested in the film?

I am, but I'm pretty upset that they canceled The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Very good show- stupid Fox.

One of those things you either love it or hate it. It was very different from the movies, at least.

I wouldn't go that far but it is good, it explains how he got the scar and tied the whole serries together. also who here started laghing after seeing the CGI Govenator.

"I" thought it was one of the greatest films this year. But I'm usually a fan of action films.

And I actually thought it was awesome when I saw Arnold, so much I actually started clapping.

More like you're a fan of mindless action flicks.

There's nothing wrong with mindless action movies.
I never said there was, but there is a difference between an action movie, and a mindless one. Personally, I'm more into a blending of the genres.

Ah, it seemed you were taking a shot at Mulluns by suggesting there was something wrong with mindless action movies. My bad yo.

No, just clarifying that the reason he thought this was the best movie (****ing insane concept) so far this year is because he is partial to the more mindless action flicks than those with real depth.

Try both, to a degree. One action film I did not like was "Wanted" as that was just so ridiculous and cliché it was sorta boring, up until the last 20 minutes.

Salvation was not a mindless action flick though.

Saw this and Star Trek with my best friend today. I saw this first, and thought it was good. Then I saw Star Trek, and Star Trek killed this movie.

Of course it did. Star Trek has plot.

Went and saw this... Eh. It was a good movie alone, but it could have (and should have) been a lot more.

Is it just me, or did Sam Worthington, who played Marcus Wright, seem to be more of an intresting character then Christian Bale's John Conner? Kinda surprised me.

Yes I thought the same exact thing like to a T. At the end of the movie I was like wtf why did they end that character he kicked ass. I liked the movie a lot. I loved the Terminator/Human concept of the Marcus character. The only thing I disliked a lot is it was clearly obvious that they are going to make another one.
