I just saw the midnight debut of the movie. It went from 12:00 to 2:15 CST, but the movie didn't really start until 12:15 because of previews. I thought it was a pretty good movie. I wouldn't say it's awesome, but it was definitely worth $8.00. I'm about to post 3 spoiler things. The beginning of spoilers will be marked with ********* and the end of spoilers will be marked with ///////////.
Just saw Terminator: Salvation! (please mark spoilers if posted)
Originally, John Connor WAS supposed to die, and the machine-Pinocchio was going to take his flesh and his identity, but the ending was leaked and the film's director scrapped the ending in order to keep the fanbase on its toes.
I figured, if they could sell it, I'd dig that ending. This ending was just garbage. Talk about copping out.
I was really let down by this movie. It was really boring. The action and everything was just subpar. Fuck McG.
Fuck Jonathan Mostow, that fool made too many mistakes with the franchise and the lore in the 3rd movie. I liked the movie, arnie being in it is great. It brings up the question, why dont they just make the new movies with Digi-Arnold in them?

I think the reworked ending is just better, because it kinda flips everything around how this other Terminator becomes John Connor and makes you feel like shit, that guy in 2 and 3 wasnt shit. This is the real savior. But it is weak to introduce a new character in the 4th movie as the real savior. I think they could have done a better job adressing the fact that the T-800 Arnie terminators were not supposed to come online until 2029 or a few years before, 2018, especially since Judgement Day started late from T3, is too early. Though John seems some what surprised.
I've never seen Terminator 3 nor I don't know if I want to see this one. I enjoyed the first ... [more]
Who is McG anyways? Never heard of the guy. I wish Jonathan Mostow came back for the 4th one. [more]
