Why oh why have they left out the original characters Linda Hamilton and Robert Patrick? I am so pissed off that they did this. I would have been one of the first people who would have gone to the cinema and seen it by now. The TX does look good but these new characters ahhhhhh! I want Linda Hamilton and Robert Patrick! Its not fair!!!!!!!

No they were just fucking stupid. As a film financier I would no way have put money into this movie without Linda Hamilton and Robert Patrick. I'm sorry they just as much made T2 the A1 movie it was.

what crass, naive? it's of course all about the money. james cameron didnt want to have do anything with it because there want a twist able to give to the story to keep it going believable.
you shouldnt mind to much though: in 2 years T3 wont be considered part of the cycle anymore.

Yeah I read that too. Still doesn't make me wanna watch it. Arnie just isn't a character strong enough on his own to make me wanna watch it. If they brought forward the son character I'd definitely would have gone to see it. But with just Arnie its just not good enough to see for me. The TX looks bloody good though and I think it was a stroke of genius using a girl as the Terminator but again without at least the original boy character I'm just simply not going to watch it.

i was very baked when i watched it and i quite enjoyed it.
the trick is to lose the high brow movie afficionado attitude when you watch it and just enjoy the explosions. this is low low brow action not to be taken seriously.
and James Cameron did say he liked it.

Oh don't get me wrong Arnie is the Terminator. But the Terminator movie isn't just Arnie its Sarah Conner and the original boy character too. Sarah Connor kicked arse in T2. Sob sob I'm so unhappy that she's not in this one. Oh sod it I'll think I'll have some chocolate.

they should have got Robert Patrick even if just for a cameo. It wouldnt have been hard to do, just have his face morph on the T-X.

i can't believe they're still making this kind of film. seen 1, seen them all. catering for the masses, sucking your money, feeding you corn dogs and popcorn, then going home to sleep and conning you into thinking you've had an entertaining and produtive experience which you can tell your grandchildren when you're older.

You tossers all need to lighten up, I just watched it now for the first time... And I have a couple things to say:
1) The girl as a terminator is a bigger "catering for the masses" than anything else in the entire movie, but everyone pretends that the T&A isn't why a girl was used. Think about it, in terms of gender, a MALE is the obvious choice for any assassin, given strength. Of course, I guess when it comes down to super-high-tech machines, the exterior isn't all that important, so I let this one slide.
2) Promo: You don't consider a Terminator without Linda Hamilton a Terminator movie? Uhh, what about the Terminator?
3) I thought the movie was actually quite interesting, given that it turns out judgement day couldn't be avoided, and I enjoyed the twist at the end with the secret base turning out the be the staging point for the entire resistance.
4) The special effects were top notch, and the movie was funny too. I love the terminator(Arnold)'s way of being the most serious character but also the must funny. :)
Sorry you all didn't enjoy it but like evolume said: "the trick is to lose the high brow movie afficionado
attitude when you watch it".

I watched it a while ago and thought it was OK. I love the fight scene between Arnie and the female terminator. Mindless nonsense, yes, enjoyable, yes. I probably wouldn't watch it again though.
Linda Hamilton didn't want to do it.
Robert Patrick didn't want to do it.
The lad from the first one is now a heroin addict and had to go detox just before filming started.
I couldn't play the terminator due to other work commitments so Arnie had to step in again.

Oh, well in that case, I don't think it's so bad that there was a new machine over the T1000, having the TX in there left me wondering "how the hell is Arnie ever gonna beat that?" If it were the T1000, I think the movie would have even more of that "been there done that" feeling that some have spoke of. They had no choice but to present a new design. :)

potato chips are not especially nutritious. their flavor is not particularly dynamic. but i just keep eating them because they taste good. i eat gormet foods on occasion too but sometimes i like to just snack on the junky stuff.
T3 is like the junk food of the movie world.

i have SO many things to say about this film, but i just haven't got enough time at the moment
there are SO MANY FUCKING HOLES IN THE PLOTLINE IT"S UNTRUE!!!!!!!!!!!
it's absolutley not in touch with the storyline of The Terminator, they changed MAJOR things in the storyline to fit their abomination of a film.
I BOYCOTT THIS FILM!!!!
I am gonna go to see Aliens vs. Predator just to nit-pick - because I know for a fact that it's not going to be true to the original plotlines

and yeah, unfortunately Aliens Vs Predator is just going to ruin both series (not like Aliens wasn't already ruined by Ressurection). It's sad because a film like this has so much potentional, it seems doomed to fail.

No, I meant that to be a "terminator movie" it technically requires only the Terminator. Not that hard to understand really.

Actually to be honest, the whole terminator saga is as illogical as it can be right from the very first film on, if only for the dimwitted principle of timetravel.
