Lordfishbane Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 I watched it last night not really hoping for much, wasn't dissipointed or impressed just Meh! I may gettin to be an ol' geezer when I start to think to much about the show/movie. C'mon machines from the future cant shoot a 16 year old kid at point blank range? They can build a freaking time machine but not a targeting system? Oh well, I'll watch a couple of more times Iguess before it falls off the watch list like Hero's .

witchfire Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 resistance can send people far in the past to hide stuff for future use but the machines cant send terminators to kill Sara's parents or grand parents if they blow up aterminator each episode it's gonna get old real fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordfishbane Posted January 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Hehe, yea, but the suspence of having to wait till the isatope turns red to blow it up will make up for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 It's already old. I liked the first two terminator movies, but that 3rd one...meh. Now the series? Come on...we get it, the are relentless...they never stop. Maybe they would be smart enough to send a whole army through? Not only that, but the terminator took like 30 shots with that handgun in that school, and I never seen him reload. And why bother hiding a gun inside his flesh? Couldn't it have been just as effectively hidden in his waist band? What was he scared of metal detectors? The 'kevlar' lazy boy bothered me too...where do they get the time or inclination of bullet proof a chair? And the logic of Sarah Connor..."we need to stay hidden and under the radar, but lets make a beeline for the wife of the scientist we whacked last time".... Lastly, the 'teenie bopper, hot sexy protector terminator' is just plain stupid. It's cheesecake and dumb. The studios wants to just rehash 'safe' bets to make TV shows and movies...and those almost always lead to ultimate failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonherald Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 hee hee thanks Vike you've just convinced me it ain't worth bothering with....I started watching the Blade series but just can't adjust to it no been Wesley snipes ...hopefully the promised star wars tv series will be worth it....

Lordfishbane Posted January 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 LOL Vike, yea I didnt want to bag on it to bad but i had all the same complaints. I think they count on "hot robot action" to keep it afloat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 I didn't even know about this, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't give a big whoop either if I did get around to seeing it. Save the time and go watch Robot Chicken! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungWolf7 Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I watched last night's episode and I didn't think it was all that bad. Then again, that was the first one I've seen. I happen to like Summer Glau from Firefly, so I kinda dig her as a terminator. It's almost the same role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jubilee Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 If I watched TV, I would watch this series just to see Summer Glau and sigh over the fate of Firefly. I will probably rent it when it comes out on DVD, though. /ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Yup, I watched last night too, in hopes it will get better...still some just plain foolishness... For instance...they go to a 'safehouse' to find all the resistance members murdered...only to return later AFTER the police have made it a crime scene. The police, in investigating the multiple homicide, never bother to look behind the oddly out of place 'HANG IN THERE KITTY" poster to reveal a wall safe (which has thousands of dollars and stashes of diamonds) UGH! Then John Conner breaks into the house of one of Sarah's former lovers...a man he was also very close to. Then when he encounters the man, karate chops him and leaves....WTF did he break in for? I've tried twice to give it a fair shake...I just can't like it....I've tried! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungWolf7 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Apparently they forgot the collision avoidance routines in the CPUs programming or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 I just found out yesterday that the actress who plays Sarah is also the 'queen' in 300.... Thats hard to believe, she looks so damn different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungWolf7 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Believe it. Yet another reason for me to watch. Lena Heady is nummy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
