I have to agree. Mixed feelings can’t be helped. The Terminator universe is just interesting as hell. Christian Bale is a wonderful actor who has yet to really let his audience down. At least, he has yet to really let me down. But friggin’ McG? Anything that guy touches turns to crap. Pure manure. I think about the only thing worse than McG is Uwe Boll.

I didn’t even bother with watching T3. I loved the first one and the second one was kick ass too.

This one with Bale looks amazing. can’t wait to see it.

“Such an 80’s model of show.” – Joey

“I remember when ET actually talked about the entertainment industry. They even had movie reviews”- Terry

Joey, what Terry said *was* the 80’s model to mid 90’s model. You think if Roger Ebert disliked a film he got vicious? Once upon a time ET’s Leonard Maltin was a bad ass. If he disliked a film, he showed no mercy.

Before Jon Tesh devoted his time to his music…oh, how he is missed! I recall those occasional side remarks he used to do.

Then three things happened. They wanted to go soft and more fluff. That’s one.

Two, reality shows were the rage and, to some extent, still are. American Idol (not a real bad thing) and Dancing With The Stars (not a real bad thing) get about 80% coverage time. Gossip 10% (including real or rumor, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears) 5% goes to shameless self promotion. 5% is sex topics in Entertainment, be it Playboy, Victoria’s Secret, or no-fur Vanity Fair cover shoots (or Paris Hilton, Britney Spears…). 3% is mildly shameless self promotion including the nails on the Emery board personality CoJo and what vet Mary Hart did on the weekend. The rest is films and TV shows-usually CSI, which isn’t a bad thing, but you’d think that show and Ghost Whisperer were the only non-reality shows on TV. Least filmwise, Bond had loads of ET time.

Three, every time they give new faces a shot at reporting…those new reporters want to be “stars” themselves, (see the 3%) and leave the show. Aside from the two mainstays (Hart and Jann Carl) nobody sticks around long…although Kevin Frazier is practically a ET vet already. I’m glad they went back to the desk though.

As for this—teaser of a teaser, I’m not all excited about it. In fact, I’m outright disappointed. Not as disappointed as I am in the TV show, which is getting worse every other week, although it isn’t the actor’s fault.

I never said that 2 wasn’t the best. I just said I could never find time to watch all of it. Everytime I start watching it, I run out of time or get distracted. I never meant I hated the second.

But what I’ve seen of T2 is freaking awesome

@dragon

…what

2nd was by far the best. Actually one of the best action films ever. Actually possibly Arnold’s best movie. Well 2nd to Jingle All the Way.

They need to keep McG a secret because he has made nothing but garbage.

I remember when ET actually talked about the entertainment industry. They even had movie reviews. Now it makes the National Inquirer look like Time magazine. I feel like Cosmo Kramer whenever I hear Mary Hart.

BTW, T4 looks like it’s on the right path.

I don’t get what is with T3. I freaking loved the film. And I loved the first film. And I can’t seem to freaking finish the second film.

I will continue to be on the fence about this movie because action can look as bass ass as it wants, but that doesn’t mean it’ll be a good movie. Christian Bale is a plus playing John Connor, but McG as director pretty much overshadows that plus.

The footage we saw in London was staggering (and that was still very rough). Just for the record. This film is going in the best direction from T3 (and that is far away from it)

Makes you wonder how McG has the time to finish his film when he keeps flying round the world to promote it.
