Of course chances are this will be mediocre at best. But me likey that trailer.

 

[THRILLHO]

*facepalm*

 

[Johnnyc]

Look. It's BALE shooting a TERMINATOR in the FUCKING HEAD at POINT BLANK range with a BIG FUCKIN GUN. This will be AMAZING.

 

[mark]

after seeing 'the dark knight' i'm only more confused about bale doing this. i hope we're surprised, but i'm not hopeful.

 

[Johnnyc]

He's a good lookin' boy.

 

[Goodbye]

some of the gnarlier terminators are cool though.

Aye... I'm looking forward to this too, but that trailer is a bit dodge.

Bales gruff Batman whisper/growl is back, the whole "You killed my father!" etc bit is rather cheesy and fuck me... there's even a dude making a jump on a motorbike featuring an ET "moon silhouette" type of moment....uh oh. Also the whole rounding up of the raggy humans all looks a bit like the Jews in WW2, which is a bit....erm.

 

[RED(tape)MENACE]

Yeah, the Bale rumble is getting proper boring.
The optimist in me is looking forward to this though.

I like the Bill Cosby directing Aliends post though.
In that vein, i'd like to equate it to Sam Allerdyce directing The Bourne Ultimatum.

I say this thread turns into an 'inappropriate director/movie pairings' list. I'm going to go the other way and say Oliver Stone directing High School Musical 4... Based around a class president electoral fraud conspiracy

 

[pissypants]

Holy Shit, 3 is just finished on the TV now.
The Crane Truck scene is good, but the rest is ultrakak.

 

[the departed]

it's fuching atrocious.

 

[Johnnyc]

It's not quite Batman And Robin, but it's definitely a big departure from the rest of the series. A lot of it seems to be played for laughs. I dunno if they were trying to go for a Verhoeven tone or what, but it's rather muddled.

It has its moments, but it isn't fit to stand alongside the other two movies.

 

[Yurn!]

T3 is a fucking abomination. Pointless, SUPER SUPER stupid, derivative, boring. From the off it's fucking woeful. 'Talk to the hand' 'oh i hate machines', Terminator slut with her big tits. It's like T2 seen through the eyes of an ape.

'Judgement Day was inevitable, we could never stop it...' I mean what the fuck??? What was the point of the entire series then? Well, i say series, there's only 2 Terminator movies.

Wait so, Judgement Day in 1997 was stopped. So John Connor didn't become the leader of the resistance for another ten years. So Kyle Reese was born just a happy go-lucky kid. But then future-John knew all along that it would happen 10 years later? So why did he send Reese to T1? Or Arnie to T2.

IHATETHISMOVIESOMUCH.

Other two?

It's certainly muddled.
And it is not helped by the lack of a Schwarzenegger and having Bale as the 4th actor to play John Conner.
I expected to be excited about seeing the movie after watching the trailer. I'm kind of non-plussed.

ehhhhh...
i think you missed his point there..
he was talking about T3..

how is the new one muddled?

 

[Yurn!]

i'd go as far to say parody-of-himself Ahnold actually makes T3 worse, so i'm glad he's not wrinkling his way onto this one. Even though it's going to suck barse.

Bugger. I did miss the point, I was reading the thread title.

Muddled in that it wasn't clear about what was going on.
