The Terminator: Salvation - Official trailer!

[The Curmudgeon]

Well, who would have believed it? A spin-off TV show, usually the death-knell for any film, has actually got me interested in a movie franchise again.

If the fourth Terminator movie had came out after T3, I doubt I would even have rented it. But after the superb Sarah Conner Chronicles, which was far, FAR superior than I ever thought it would be, I'm ready to see where they go with this.

I'm not sure, is this following T3 timelines or ignoring that film completely? Anyone know?

Glad you liked the show. I can't wait for season 2. Hopefully when this movie comes out it will be so wonderful that you will not feel compelled to bring up T3; you will have forgotten it exists. When I saw this trailer in the theater somebody grumbled that it would ruin the franchise. I enjoyed T3 for the big, dumb action film it was but I don't see how this fresh start could do any more damage that one. This is the film I've wanted to see ever since the opening skull-crushing shot that jump-started my dark sci-fi love so many years ago.

I'm definitely interested, not least 'cos Christian Bale's involved. So is this got anything to do with T3?
