Loved the Terminator.....Having Stan Winston's creation get up out of the burning RIG was a top-10 movie moment for me. I was about 13yrs old and that was WHOOOOOOAAAAAA......

 

Script was awesome and M.Biehn (Reese) nailed these lines perfectly.

Kyle Reese: Listen, and understand! That Terminator is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.

 

Kyle Reese: [interrupts] Look! You've heard enough! I have answered your questions! Now I have to see Sarah Connor!

Dr. Silberman: I'm afraid that's not up to me.

Kyle Reese: Then why am I talking to you? Who is in authority here?

Dr. Silberman: Please, I-

Kyle Reese: SHUT UP! [glares the camera] You still don't get it, do you?! He'll find her! That's what he does! It's all he does! You can't stop him! He'll wade through you, reach down her throat, and pull her fuging heart out!!

 

 

 

 

T2 was a great action movie.

I hope it never gets any further than that press release.

 

 

serious question, I can tell from your post that you love the original terminators, and I assuming you don't want anyone new ones because it will ruin the legacy? 

 

 

But I don't get this logic. It's not like they are burning all the copies of the originals. You don't have to watch the new ones, hell you don't have to even show your kids the new ones. 

 

Hollywood is all about making money, thus successful franchises always get rebooted. 

 

so I guess my question is: Why does it really matter to you?

In the end it doesn't matter.  Not really.

 

 

I just hate to see solid movie franchises raided for their name and the franchise devalued.  You could argue that the second one of these was better than the first but since then it has been a steady race to the basement.  3 was bad, 4 was horrible, and that abortion that was Sarah Connor Chronicles should have landed someone in jail. Its my concern that with another three movies and all people will remember when Terminator is mentioned is the mountain of poo covering up two of the all time great SciFi flicks.

 

 

To me its like making a sequel to Blade Runner, or Saving Pvt Ryan, or The Outlaw Josie Wales.  You really cant improve on the story/world.

Terminator 3 wasn't BAD, it was a good action flick.  The problem is T1 and definitely T2 are untouchable.  T2 may still be the best action flick ever, and maybe sci-fi, it's up there for sure.  T4 was OK but I wouldn't say any of them are straight BAD.   It definitely went down after T2 but it wasn't bad.  Sarah Connor Chronicles was actually a very good tv show and most fans agreed, especially toward the end it stated getting REALLY good but it was too late.  If they were able to go a 3rd season it would have been awesome.  Matter of fact, it's a show people have been trying to get brought back for years.

 

That being said, not sure why a reboot instead of a continuation of the story.  If you're "rebooting" why bring Arnold back?  Start a new identity IMO.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      There was no reason to believe in either Cam or Jake as a top tier elite QB before those seasons either. Cam was an "athletic" QB in most people's minds and his passing skills were open for debate. And there was a bit to that as he was still trying to get that massive power in his arm tamed to be able to put some touch on his passes. And then, he did it. Missiles became bombs, the firing lanes became points of finesse. Cam grew up and leveled up, while still retaining the ability and drive to truck people whenever he wanted. And Jake... no one freaking believed in Jake except Jake himself. He got, and let's be honest with this, one chance in a losing game to make something out of his career. And he rose to the occasion like some kind of mythical hero and continued to do so for the season. He became a true leader for the team, and his gunslinger capabilities rehabbed Moose's career and created Smitty as a force in the league. Smitty went from a barker to a biter. But no one believed in Jake going in. And they trashed him on his way out. Now Bryce... who knows? I've seen some improvement. Maybe he finds his footing. His teammates seem to love and respect him and that means a lot. The game should be moving at his speed now. He has weapons available to him and maybe a defense that doesn't just roll over by the third quarter. And his coach seems to be moving this team in the right direction. Could he do it? It's up to him, if he can find the magic like Jake and Cam did. But don't doubt this, magic is really, really hard to find.
