Please Note: This thread may contain some Spoilers. Enter at your own risk!
Well its time for bad guy turned good guy Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.
This black box may contain a spoiler. Highlight the black line to enter.
Synopsis:
Nearly a decade after Skynet sent back the T-1000, John Connor faces a female Terminator, the T-X, with power over all machines. But John has another protector: a new T-800 unit Terminator is sent back through time to help guide John through the coming battle.
Terminator 3 Official Site (http://www.terminator3.com/)
The official website has posted the first teaser trailer for Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines: The Game. Released on X-Box, GameCube and PS2, the game is looking like a must for all Terminator fans. If you want to see a digital Arnie, this is well worth a look.
Terminator 3 Game (http://www.terminator3.com/mission/missionvid.html)
I just picked up the newspaper with a review. Out of 5 stars, they gave it a 4. :o
Looks like I'll be checking this Arnie flick out. 8) Anyone else going to check it out?

Must....not ...read...
Could you put on spoiler? Because I came in here and it wasn't mark spoiler. I know others who hasn't see the movie would be upset if they saw this thread without the spoiler being marked. Thank. :)
-
I want to, as I'm a big fan of the other two. The wife doesn't want to though. She pretty much bad mouthed the original and sequel while I was watching them this past week on SciFi. "Why would anyone watch these" "These are the stupidest movies ever made" (yeah, they're a lot stupider than Legally Blond or How to Lose a Guy in Two Weeks Notice or some crap ::))

Sorry, I was working on that. All fixed now. ;)

I'm actually looking forward to this movie if for no other reason than I heard Arnold paid a million plus of his own cash to keep a particular scene from ending up on the cutting room floor. If he thinks it was worth his while to pump that much of his own scratch into it, it can't be that bad. Plus I just absolutely loved T2. ;D
-
I'm going tonight at 9:00. It would be 8:00, but if it ends up being anything like the crowd for Matrix:Reloaded, the later showing is going to better for me, seating wise.
Still going to show up an hour early. :P
Ooh, and the figs will hit EB Games on July 10th. 8)

*cough cough choke* Now THIS movie sucked. An enormous piece of crappity crap wrapped up in a thick layer of mega crapulence. Absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Uninspired. Please change the title to Terminator 3: Rise of the Boredom

I just got back from T3. Totally blown away. Seamless special effects, plenty of action, loads of good humor, and unlike "28 Days", the girls in this flick can actually act. It picks up right where it left off in T2, no continuity issues here. Now I have to wait 9 days until the figures are out. ::)

Finally, a positive review. Today I was reading a newspaper and happened to see the review for T3. 1 out of 4 stars!!! OMG! Those stupid critics totally ruined the hype for T3!! Of course I'll have to see it though and will have to persuad my brother into going to see the movie with me.
-
Critics, much like their reviews, are pointless. All they are are people who share their opinions, and then weak minded "average movie goers" decide weither or not they want to go, based on some guys opnion, who will never have your interests in mind, nor has any clue what you may like.
I'll be back for more, I imagine, cuz I absolutely loved it.
-
Critics have there own opinion. In my mind, critics suck! I remember one critic here in the city, when Star Wars came out, he trashed it. But when Annie the movie came out, his review was, its a must see.
5 stars out of 5. ::)
Kinda tells you something. ???

Wrong thread, this is the T3 thread, not the 28 Days Later thread...
So what, I hated the movie, big deal! You hated 28 Days Later, and you wanted to agree to disagree. So stop bringing it up again!
-
I think I'm going to see T3 tonight with the wife and some friends, and I'm hoping this to be a good one. Critics suck! They're all a bunch of whiney people who flip a quarter to say "thumbs up" or "thumbs down." This is one movie I want to see and MUST see. 8)

Err, what? Sorry, Adam. I was making a comparison, because right now "28 Days Later" is one of T3's biggest competitors in the box office.
Sorry for being off topic guys. :-*

Adam's just making a joke there Cory, that you got your high praise for a movie in the "wrong" thread... That's all. At least with the first part of his comment. The second part means let's just "let it go"... ;)
I plan on checking out T3 sometime in the next week myself...
-
I just came back from this movie and liked it alot. I hope they make T4 if this movie makes money because I want to see a movie take place in the future and having the War actually end with the humans winning since John Connor leads them to victory or so it was said in T2 I think. The last shots of the movie were neat to see with the farm buildings then the missles headed towards the sky.
-
Theres a just a few more things that need to be explained, which I guess T4 would do. The ending of T3 would have been a perfect ending, to which we could all draw our own conclusion, but I guess we'll wait and see.

I saw this movie at 11 am this morning. I have to say that I was really impressived, even my brother was impressived. It was really good though, but it doesn't have the Terminator hype as the 1st two were, but notherless, it was awesome. Action-pack/humor/well connected story-line. What more can you get? The only thing I wasn't happy about was that the movie was too short and the final battle between the T-X and the T-800 was too short. We finally get to see the T-800's half of his body flesh torn off, but he didn't do much after that.
BTW, I spotted a mistake. Toward the end, when the blast door opened, but then started to close. The Terminator run to the door and held it for john and Kate. Now the T-X crawls under the door too, but was held by the T-800. Now oen of the T-800's arm is holding the T-X, now the T-800 takes his other arm to get the fuse cell from his chest, but who is holding the door while the Terminator has one arm on the T-X and the other arm with the fuse cell????

The T800 is with his body. I just saw it again and saw him with his body holding it up while he was getting the power cell out. He propbally knew that he was going to die so he decided to make sure the TX didn;'t get a chance to kill Carnor or Kate.

I just got back from watching it, and I think it was a great movie. However, I don't think it was better than T2. Yeah, there was a lot of action in T3, but it wasn't the type of hardcore action as T2 was. There will definitely be a T4 movie, because they leave it totally wide open at the end.
-
I just wonder one thing-is it possible to wreck any more vehicles than they did in this flick? Criminy.
But still, a great flick and kind of sad at the end. Destiny tends to suck like that. I want to see a T4 if it's all future war, all the time.
-
I agree with dusthro.
-
If there is a T4, god forbid movie studios don't ruin a good thing, it will more than likely have to be Arnold-less.
Why? He said his mission was to insure that John Connor and the misses make it out alive to start the resistance, which they did. T-850 was destroyed in the process. If he were to return in a T4, his mission in T3 would be obsolete. Not only that, he'll have to return for a FOURTH time..and be mission less..which makes no sense. On top of THAT, whatever model they throw him into for his 4th appearance will be obsolete, especially since the machines apparently keep evolving, (850, 1000, TX)
I think that although it was left wide open, there was also a good bit of closure. Everything that was forseen, happened. Judgment Day, albeit delayed, did begin. Now, J.C. is going to lead the humans into battle against the machines, and there ya go.
T4 would more than likely be Arnold-less, like I was saying, because he is dead for one. Secondly, there would have had to been 2 Terminators that the resistance reprogrammed to save/help John Connor, which is not likely. Therefore, there is no reason why a machine would be helping the other side when they are the ones trying to defeat them.
Arnold is 55 years old. He already said he wanted to get into politics. Besides, they will more than likely have to have as big a gap in between a T3 and T4 as they did between T2 and T3. 12 years? Arnie will be 67, and NOT doing his own stunts. And as I said, there wouldn't be any need for a Terminator in T4.
-
That's what I'm thinking too. I want to see a T4 anyway.
-
I can get by without another installment in the Terminator series, T3 tied up all the loose ends nicely I thought. As JF stated above Judgment Day came, Connor and wife were spared, and the T-850 fullfilled it's mission. That being said, I thought T3 was a pretty good movie but could have been better with the same composer who did T2. It just would have blended them a little nicer. Also, there was a little more cheese in here than I was hoping for, most abnoxios line being Arnie's "Tawk to duh hand!" ::)
BTW, I missed a small part and was wondering if someone could please fill me in.
SPOILER ALERT
How/why did the Terminator kill the future John Connor??? I was briefly distracted and missed the whole line except "I killed you!" by Arnie. Do'h!!! :o
END SPOILER ALERT
-
I just saw T3 - Anyone who says this movie sucked must suffer from hemroids or something and cant sit through any movie regardless of content.
This movie kicked ass for a number of reasons. 1) It succeeded in tying up all the loose ends and making the previous 2 movies make complete sense. 2) Good humor and good drama, though a lil annoying from time to time, they knew when to stop with the stupid **** and get down to real script - and they did so pretty fluidly to where it wasn't too akward, 3) awesome fight/chase sequences... 4) the Terminator looked as good as ever.
So, to answer ur question T-Bone -
The Terminator explained that he used his recognizable face to make Conner think the Terminator from his childhood had come back to help him out - Conner has affection for that Terminator and so he let his guard down, and then the Terminator slayed him.
If I got it twisted someone let me know.

Thanks AE, I appreciate that, and you did get that right, I checked out that part in the novel and it explained it exactly like yoyu said. To take advantage of a mans affection is a sh*tty thing to do to a guy! But, at least Connor now knows HOW, WHEN and WHO is going to kill him so he can take action to try and prevent that from happening again, or rather for the first time.:)
