Rented Terminator Salvation
« on: December 22, 2009, 12:04:10 AM »
Didn't know what to expect. Really enjoyed it. Worth the rental. Honestly knew pretty much what the salvation was from the beginning and guessed the ending to a degree. However, well done movie. hehe Arnold must of got a mint for his cameo.

I loved it. There's a lot of haters here, though.
All of the A-10 scenes I especially loved. And the big harvester machine, awesome.

That wasn't really arnie, it was CGI from the earlier movies.

Story line was a bit cheesy, but the action more than made up for it.

Loved it     :aok

Actually all of Arnold's scenes are just CGI of him from the first movie, he didn't actually participate in the making of the movie.

Very much doubt he was not compensated, nonetheless.

Yeah but I doubt it was really anything substantial, all they did was scan a mold of his face from 84, he didn't have to do a thing.

Im sure that's exactly what the studio's lawyers argued.  :D

I remember seeing this in theaters the day it came out. All I can say is that it was LOUD. Still a great movie though, I really enjoyed it. I liked the break from the endless plot to kill John Connor before Judgement Day. Its good that they put more of the Resistance in the movie. I've only heard rumors about this, but aren't they supposed to be making a T5 and T6?

I thought it was ok, I'll say I was expecting it to be a little better, but it's still 10 times better then T3, that movie was horrible, it had way to much humor in it, theres no reason you should have humor in a Terminator movie.

From what I read, T5 & T6 are on the boards, but it was dependent on how well this last one did. I saw it in the theater also, yes, it was probably the loudest movie I've been to.
Just waitin for a day when no ones home so I can relive that on my system :rock

I would've preferred a little more to the story. It was rather straightforward.

Yeah, me too. They could've made a 2:30 movie if they had put more story in.
