Anyone see terminator? - The Orange Mane

Flex Gunmetal · 05-23-2009, 02:01 PM

If not, wait for the DVD. Talk about a letdown.

i was wanting to , but i will take your advice ..... How about fast and Furious 4 ? My wife wants to see that , I was thinking of taking her ( part of our lets work out our problems instead of divorce things)

Flex Gunmetal · 05-23-2009, 02:06 PM

Hahaha. Didnt see fast and furious. I was looking forward to wolverine and terminator, both were pretty disappointing. Star trek was sweet tho. Maybe that can save your marriage?

I think the key to T4 is to not have crazy expectations. I saw it last night and I didn't expect much more than good action. And I thought it was awesome. Granted, I was also pretty baked, but to me it was a really good movie. Obviously there were pretty big plot holes and some of the stuff was a little ridiculous, but IMO the movie made up for that with non-stop action. It was fantastic. I actually recommend seeing this in theaters rather than DVD because on DVD the action scenes won't be as good as they will on the big screen.

Don't go into this movie expecting Citizen Kane. Go into it expecting a decent story and tons of stuff blowing up and you won't be disappointed.

(For best results, see it while inebriated)

I was very very entertained for 2 hours. prepare to suspend your disbelief regarding one character in particular, but overall I wholeheartedly recommend it*

Good point. I was blazed out when I saw it, I just love the 1st 2 and despise the 3rd one. I had high hopes. A lot of stuff didn't add up and it was frustrating. I loved the post-apocalyptic feel and the action was great.

Dukes · 05-23-2009, 02:51 PM

It was a good action flick, but I left feeling something was missing. I still can't put my finger on what exactly, it just seemed incomplete.

Thought it was too short, as in any scene that might develop any character, was left on the cutting room floor. Even with a 2 hour run time, it didn't seem like that long of a film.

This should have been unquestionably R like the prior 3 films.

The final 2 minutes almost killed it for me. Either something got cut, or they had no idea how to end it.

I have other complaints, but there would be spoilers.

Even with all that, I had a great time and might even go see it again.

ludo21 · 05-23-2009, 02:53 PM

T 4 was sweet!!

You got explosions, action, high tech SkyNet, what else was one looking for?

If you want to see it, go see it, dont let this ruin thread ruin it for ya.

I had heard that the original ending was leaked online. They scrapped it and had the ****ty one the audience was left with.
From what I heard, the original had Connor getting aced, but who knows.

Leaked online version was: Connor dies. Marcus takes Connor's face so no one knows that Connor is dead and the Resistance continues.

Nearly as stupid as what they put out there, but I know that everyone involved with the film always denied that was the ending.

Wow that's just as bad.

Crushaholic · 05-23-2009, 03:26 PM

Terminator was always about Arnold Schwarzenegger. Without seeing the movie, I can't imagine Christian Bale taking on the role with any credibility...

I hadn't read that leak, but I actually thought that was how it was going to end (Connor dies, Marcus takes over....only without the silly face thing)

DeusExManning · 05-23-2009, 04:07 PM

I just saw it and loved it, I do not see what the problem is. There was a lot of action, Christian Bale does a great job. The Marcus storyline was great. A good set up for a sequel.

I would've cared more about cardboard cutouts than those characters. They had the depth of a puddle.

Not that is a bad thing , some times we just go to movies to escape our own reality , just escape and have fun and enjoy the ride ........No deep thinking , no need to follow closely

That is not what happened, but that would have been interesting none the less.
