I loved the previous Terminator movies (loving 3 was done in the way you love an amusing in-law) but I can't decide if I like the direction the current one is moving in. I'm a huge fan of origin stories but the time involved between the first and (supposedly) last of this series makes this one seem extremely forced:
My prediction: John Connor is victorious.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to think either. It doesn't help that his narration sounds like the Batman voice and the motorcycles look similar to the batcycle (?). We'll see what happens.
I never saw 3. I imagine that will happen around the same time as Rambo 3 and Rocky 6... or whatever numbers they were.
Fans have wanted to see something set in the machine-dominated future for some time (I was about to write "post-apocalypse", but then the word made me think of you-know-who... and I felt my IQ begin to drop) so this had to be done eventually if they were going to keep milking the concept.
ReplyDeleteI had actually hoped the third film would be that sort of story, but alas...
Let's hope it's good.
I'm also looking forward to seeing what the post-Apocalyptic (yeah, I said it) world will look like; I'm just glad we now have the technology to make it look real and uncheesy. But as you said, we'll see.
