Is anyone else excited about Terminator: Salvation?
From what I've seen from the trailers, it looks bad ass.

The only problem I have is the humanoid shaped robots in the future. I don't know why in the future where the robots aren't trying to hide anything they would shape themselves as humans. We aren't a very efficient system, if an artificial intelligence could create any form to kill off humans why would it pick a bi-ped like us?

1. No


The monumental putz known as Jonathon Mostow, who only had one good feature film in him (the excellent Breakdown, apparently quite an aberration for him) destroyed any interest I may have in the franchise. Even Christian Bale's participation can't rouse my interest, not unless he starts quoting Huey Lewis lyrics.

I'm happy enough considering it a two-film piece, though the second stood alone quite well as a film in its own right, and a superior piece of filmmaking at that.
