Totally disagree - the franchise's *whole premise* is about robots! The technology and such has finally caught up to the story so they can tell it without it being cheesy-looking. So much emphasis put on what the future holds in the past three movies, now we actually get to *see* what the big deal was about. Terminator 1 - good flick for the time period. scared the bejeesus outta me as a kid
Terminator 2 - best movie of the franchise so far - this one I saw 5 times in the theater in my teens and eventually broke the VHS tape from watching it so much. bought the DVD, now have it on AppleTV and iPod. Terminator 3 - bad, bad movie. If not for the intense 15-or-so minute action action-chase sequence in the middle, would have been a complete bomb. terrible choice of casting too. that guy who played jon connor was a douche. Rise of the Machines - as much as I hate Bale, I will go see this in the theater, probably more than once. has big screen written all over it. this is saying a lot for me, I hate the movie theater these days and avoid it like the plague. I'm hoping to not be disappointed, and if the trailers so far are like the movie, I will not.
