I seriously don't have any expectations for this movie. I mean, the dude directed the Charlie's Angels movies (Full Throttle is easily one of the worst movies ever).

Whatever happened to Edward Furlong? I only remember him from T2, American History X and that Aerosmith video. Why not bring back the real John Connor to play John Connor?

McG sucks ass.

He got old and still looked the same, didn't look anything like the adult John Connor we saw a bit of in the future scenes from T2.

I see

Didn't Furlong also turn into a druggie?

Actually, in a couple of those he is starting to resemble his future self. Perhaps in another ten years.

Terminator 4 = :thumbsdown: (unless they make the best sequel to any movie of all time)
Christian Bale as John Connor = :thumbsup: (after Batman Begins, I will give Terminator 4 the benefit of the doubt and watch with an open mind)

So now the movies have one competent actor. Won't help much but it'll convince me to see it.

He got busted for possession of pot, in Okalahoma. Dumb ass. That alone should keep him from every doing a cool role again, imho. :roll:

So he shouldn't be allowed to act because he smokes pot? :roll:

Yes, because no actors/writers/directors/musicians do any kind of illegal substances. :roll:

I think his point is that hollywood will be reluctant to hire him now that he's been busted. Image concerns and all...

I don't think that was his point at all. That may have been rh71's point, but not marv's.

Image might be important if you are the teenage star of a Disney Channel production and have a leaked sex tape/drug-related OD or arrest. It really doesn't matter unless the actor's life is in shambles, barely able to function or report to the set on time. And pot isn't in the same ballpark as a serious coke/heroin problem.

OMGWTF, McG is directing?!?!?

This could be epic fail

 

[biggestmuff]

WTF? McG?! Great. The Terminator frnachise is officially done.

I liked T3 and think Stahl did a fine job. At least the John Conner in T3 didn't scream like a little bitch in every scene.

T3 is kind of like Matrix 2 and 3 and Godfather 3 in my opinion -- they don't really exist. I like to just ignore them.

 

[ElFenix]

i can't take seriously anything from a guy named 'McG'

I went into 3 fully expecting it to suck but I ended up really enjoying it too ... the hot blonde Terminator was bad-ass!

Somhow I have serious doubts about a 4th one though.

 

[SampSon]

Another Terminator movie? They should have stopped after T2.

Oh c'mon. Hasn't the novelty of seeing a 110 pound woman who only possesses the bare minimum musculature to look good in a tube-top toss around 200+ pound men worn off by now?

 

[BurnItDwn]

Bale is pretty bad ass in Equilibrium and Batman ... so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

Sounds like T4 might be worth watching if it ever comes out. I mean, it can't be too much worse than T3, can it?

Yeah, same goes for Resident Evil 3.

You know, McG is involved with two of the better shows on TV . . . Chuck and Supernatural. I'm at least willing to give him a chance.

 

[BRObedoza]

anyone else think Bale would have been better cast as The Terminator?
