AverageJo	2. RE: MTV Gets Detailed Look at T4 Jan 13 2009, 1:02 PM EST Quote from the article: "While no one will confuse this John Connor (Christian Bale) with the mopey, mop-haired Connor portrayed by Thomas Dekker in Fox’s low-rated “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles,” that silly, snoozer of a TV show represents many kids only exposure to the franchise mythology." OK, we all agree that John has been too mopey in season 2. But "snoozer of a TV show?" Them's fightin' words! Besides, Thomas Dekker is no longer "mop-haired" - he cut his hair at the end of "Samson and Delilah" ;-) Post reply 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you find this valuable? Do you?

notty22	5. RE: MTV Gets Detailed Look at T4 Jan 13 2009, 1:07 PM EST Well they also bashed T3 without mercy, the movie was ok. Worldwide it made a TON of money. Which is why we are now seeing a T4. Outrageous loud statements will make sure lots of people read this MTV snippet. Post reply Do you find this valuable?

Gee, do you think the journalist is a die-hard T2 fan? Talk about objective journalism. Post reply 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you find this valuable? Do you?
pxpxcutie	7. RE: MTV Gets Detailed Look at T4 Jan 13 2009, 1:39 PM EST Well, I don't exactly look to Mtv for opinions on what qualifies as a good movie/tv show. lol. But thanks for posting! Hopefully T4 will not disappoint... :) Post reply Do you find this valuable?

pnutans	9. RE: MTV Gets Detailed Look at T4 Jan 13 2009, 2:35 PM EST The one overall arching theme that is becoming clear as more T4 footage, and analysis of McG's direction come out is that the movie is living up to expectations. Critics don't appear to be disappointed with what they have seen so far of movie and McG. The movie appears to be winner so far. McG may have pulled it off. Thank God!! OT - Given that Halcyon owns both TSCC and new Terminator 4-6 mythology, I predict many surprises (little gems for the fans) that will tie it all together. I would be looking to see if Summer has signed any contracts for T5 since it has already been green-lighted. I just don't see Halcyon passing on Summer's popularity with the fans.

" Summer as signed with Endeavor Talent Agency back in November. This is the same agency as Christian Bale. Coincidence? I think not. You are correct about Halcyon and where the T-franchise is going. I expect Summer to appear in T5 and T6. By that time TSCC will have ended its run assuming ratings go up after T4 is released. I know all about the time differences but heck this is the movies and time travel can fix or unfix things to make it plausible. Looking forward to T4 and I will see it opening night. T4 will cover the years 2018 to 2019 T5 will cover the years 2025-2027 (Cameron sent back in 2027) T6 will cover the years 2027-2029 (Skynet's defeat) Post reply Do you find this valuable?

Sure it would be great to see Summer kickin' butt on the big screen (since I never saw Serenity at the movies), unless she really wants to get typecast she might be better to avoid it.

Hopefully ratings go up for the back 9, T4 kicks ass, and maybe we'll get a season 3. I think Season 2 DVD sales on the tail end of Terminator Salvation. Since Season 1 was released on DVD August 19th, 2008, we can safety assume that Season 2 will share the release date. In all hopefullness, the Season 2 DVD sales impress sufficiently that a Season 3 is ordered, perhaps as a mid-season addition. Post reply Do you find this valuable?
tommy-minou	15. RE: MTV Gets Detailed Look at T4 Jan 13 2009, 4:26 PM EST Don't you just hate it when journalists write sh!t about things they don't know about - they can't even be bothered checking it on Wikipedia. "...silly, snoozer of a TV show..." - obviously speaking without seeing it. I am very excited about T4. I actually think that there will be a Series 3 of TSCC because a whole new audience will want more Terminator stuff. Expect to see the writers cater for this new audience in S3 - eg - tie-ing in the plots a bit more - and more barren dustiness!! Post reply Do you find this valuable?

Sure it would be great to see Summer kickin' butt on the big screen (since I never saw Serenity at the movies), unless she really wants to get typecast she might be better to avoid it." I think a movie like Terminator will put Summer on the "A" list (whatever that is), and will actually boost her career and give her much deserved recognition. The movie could explore both Allison and Skynet's Cameron in more detail than TSCC (i.e. Summer's acting prowess would shine). I don't think she should be the focus of the plot, but would definitely add power to the story. Post reply Do you find this valuable?

Mabye ramp up liek Angelina Jolie, who once played a similar role as Casella Reese. Check this out - deja deja vu vu vu - from Cyborg 2 on IMDB: In the year 2074 the PinWheel corporation creates a 'almost-human' cyborg Casella Reese, aka. Cash designed specifically to charm/seduce her way into a rival manufacturer's headquarters and then self-detonate. Things go awry, when she starts to have feelings for a human Colson Ricks, aka. Colt 45 who works for PinWheel as a martial arts instructor. He falls for Cash as well, and with the help of Mercy, they escape. PinWheel Corp. sends Danny Bench, a 'Cyborg Tracker' after both Colt and Cash. Violence ensues. Post reply Do you find this valuable?

" Being in a blockbuster movie would definitely put Summer on the map, even better if she acts as both Terminator and human, but anyway I don't think it's going to happen. The movie producers have already said they're not going to follow in the footsteps of TSCC. I'm pretty certain that the end of TSCC will be the end of our dear beloved Cameron (unless of course they make a movie based on TSCC!) As to Salvation, it's looking better and better!
