new terminator trailer

Ferg · Mar 2009

well, I think I may have to see this now. At first I was pretty much ignoring this movie... but it looks like they may actually pull a decent movie out of their terminating ass this time around.

Indeed - I was soooo disappointed with T3 that when I heard about the new movies I was instantly sad.. looks like it will be pretty awesome tho.

ebagg · Mar 2009

HAWT!

MoP · Mar 2009

Spark · Mar 2009

Terminator 3 was a joke, a pandering excuse to wring some extra dollars out of a proven franchise. It's only real redeeming value was the constant nods it made to its superior predecessors. You can't let a movie ride entirely on past success. The fans will go to see it, but no one will mistake it for a quality effort in the long run.

If this trailer is anything to go on, the direction they are taking this new movie in is way, way better. For starters, it isn't going to be re-cycling existing series conventions. The anticipated time-frame of the movie is rich with story possibilities. We can clearly tell that this is set during the war with the machines, but just as humaniform robots are beginning production. It is outlining the future origin of the terminator series of robots. The trailer shows them discovering a terminator which doesn't even know its a robot intially. There's some solid potential here for quality storytelling and character development.

I am also encouraged by early shots of Christian Bale's performance. When I first heard he was going to be put in this role, I thought it was a great idea. The fact that he is going to be able to use his own voice, and not have to resort to his Batman gargle, is even better.

when in doubt, fall back on the butterfly effect.

i will admit, that deep down inside i am secretly hoping there is some weird run in with john connor and kyle reese. he HAS to send him back! HE HAS TO SEND HIM BACK DAMMIT!!!!!!!!
but i guess that is the problem with the sequel and the treequel... the first one made sense from a linear perspective as well as a deeper level of you can't change the future.... or did it? really, would john connor have been born and lead the resistance if reese didn't come back and screw, i mean save sarah connor? and if you go off the basis of reese being john's father no matter what, then the idea of the future never being able to be changed is true, but it can get effed up somehow when liquid t100's start poking peoples eyes out!

I'm not sure about the huge terminator design, but the rest of the trailer got me hyped up for the film again!
"Do you want me to trash your fuckign' lights?"

TheSplash · Mar 2009

Cool.
I am going to listen to The Fragile right now

Jesse Moody · Mar 2009

SEX!!!!! OMG I don't care how many DPs Bale had to verbally abuse to get this to where it is. It's awesome.

"You want me to tear down your fucking lights?" YES MR. BALE!!!!

Mechadus · Mar 2009

Anybody know if they are going to tie the tv show into the movie in any way? On one hand I think it might make it a bit cheezy, but on the other hand, Summer Glau is awfully hot when shes killing people.....

NyneDown · Mar 2009

Daaayum...that looks freakin' awesome. I'll be there opening night fo' sho'.

JasonLavoie · Mar 2009

Daaammmmnnnnn indeed!

Can't wait for this one.

Tumerboy · Mar 2009

wow, an actual STORY again? Crazy!

rolfness · Mar 2009

very pretty...

mat · Mar 2009

is anyone else getting hints of the matrix movies from watching this? or just me.
none the less looks like it shall be interesting movie

NyneDown · Mar 2009

Matrix, Transformers, Old skool Terminator, Bad Boys....I get a hint of a little bit of everything. It looks like it's going to be a kick ass movie in it's own rights though.

PixelMasher · Mar 2009

looks pretty awesome. should be interesting to see the early beginnings of the war instead of the typical Cameron esque blue lit future always at night.

seforin · Mar 2009

lets just all be honest, we all watched terminator for those gleaming little moments they showed the crazy future of robots killing everything in site......this is what.........60-130 minutes got pack full of robots fighting humans ! so thats like watching the first 5 minutes of terminators 1/2 30 times ? just imagine your seeing those first 5 minutes of awesome but only times 30, and then just picture batman at one point fighting the robots for extra value.

I cant wait to see this , may will be awesome!

indian_boy · Mar 2009

every trailer just gets me even more excited

and boy do i love those motor-bike bots
clever thinkin by skynet, to chase down scurrying humans etc

also, the 'u think ur human' sequence in the above trailer has got me and some of my friends wondering about possible twists somewhere down the line.

should be good fun seein the war unfold!

dfacto · Mar 2009

Alright, after this we need Christian Bale to save the Aliens franchise, and after that maybe do a Neuromancer movie.

Pope Adam · Mar 2009

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

Vrav · Mar 2009

This is so awesome.

Saidin311 · Mar 2009

I'm pretty sure all movie trailers are made better by adding Nine Inch Nails to the soundtrack (see 300).

QFT!! NIN song = awesome trailer, every time!!!

Michael Knubben · Mar 2009

Depending on which NIN record it comes from, ofcourse.
This wouldn't have been anywhere near as cool with 'with-a teeth-a' playing over the top of it.

Haha, true that!

Codeman · Mar 2009

At least this trailer is better than the last. Verdict still out.

Indeed, this looks like it could be really cool. Looks like a pretty good year for some VFX action movies. Cool to see Nine Inch Nails on some pretty major movies recently.

ebagg · Mar 2009

I was glancing thru the IMDB page and one of the main actresses of the movie has the name MOON BLOODGOOD!?!? Crazy name, crazy hot chick!

art911 · Mar 2009

Holy crap, she is hot!

I think this movie is aptly titled, it looks like this might save what T3 tore down.

BradMyers82 · Mar 2009

Any movie with Christian Bale has me sold since I first saw American Psycho. T3 sucked, especially considering that T2 was one of my favorite movies for a really long time.
I'm really looking forward to this one!

JacqueChoi · Mar 2009

Holy shit that trailer blew away any preconceived expectations I may have had.

I thought it was gonna be given the shitty Alien 4 Art-House treatment.

This looks absolutely amazing!

And made me re-realise how much I fucking love NIN.

(If you wanna hear a nuts version of that song, find the Live version on "All That Could Have Been")

I would hyperlink, but they blocked youtube here at the office:

Rory_M · Mar 2009

seriously man, me and christian bale are Not done professionally. That trailer rocked. I can really do without the Arnold cameo it's supposed to have though.
