nail hit head... but some people yet think this film was good, dont get me wrong i enjoyed it, but it could have been so much better if thought out...
yea i mean i enjoyed seeing the huge Transformerrrs.. i mean terminaters stomping around and then con-joining onto a flying terminater ship with scout bikes etc.. very nice...
but it was like the film had NO imagination or creativity after that whatsoever.
i mean, the upper torso crawling after a wounded character? T2...pouring molten metal to kill badass terminater? freezing him up (okay not with Nitrous Oxide but still)..i was waiting for a meat grinder machine for him to fall into so they could press the button and squish him...
im going to say that T1, and also T2 ruled with them being up there as some of the best sci fi action films ever made for story, plot, real grittyness.
3 and 4 were complete sell outs (you can tell from the 12a rating wheras 1 was like an 18) to appeal to a much wider audience, gravitating away from any real struggle for survival to just a load of ppl and a few random machines out there.
also, the dudes at the petrol station ... the terminaters just overlooked them and let them live there?! terminaters arent compassionate, they feel that humans threaten their existance mr director!!! if you had someone threatening your existance and you could gesplat them with no prob whatsoever, why would you let them hold out in a petrol station right near your HQ?!
and how come the terminaters couldnt tap into John Connors radio transmissions?! a, they never seemed to be able to decipher them or b, home in on them?! its not like i saw them all with mass encryption devices with a SSL vpn or whatever...?
who uses A10 tank busters 20 years in the future - given a lack of air to air superiority.. for ground attack yes v good...but like if they KNOW air to air combat is going to happen, surely you'd always have air to air fighters protecting your warthogs?! otherwise u going to lose them as soon as the first air to air contact happens.
and like how extremely trusting were these humans? no magneta scans on when people come back into the base? jphn connor stood there on his own acting broody, it could be a shape shifyter peeps, have you not got like pocket magnets you can check all other life with BEFORE its too late?
and then the water things that looked straight out of the matrix?! why ddnt they just poison all the water and kill all the stupid humans (who based on this film) probably would check it for contamination anyway?!
