hi I just wanted your opinions on if you liked T3 or didnt like it? IMO it was almost as good as T2 but the action was better in T3 and I liked how it ended.

T3 was very decent. I can't put it ahead of of T2:Judgment Day, but it was a much better flick than I had imagined it would be.
Great action...just not nearly as compelling emotionally the way T2 was. It's really a damn shame they couldn't get Linda Hamilton to participate...she was (and is) still the real heart of the story.
I also thought the guy that played John Connor was kind of chumpy. The girl who played the Terminatrix was hot, hot, HOT!

i loved it, very badass, and granted not as cool as t2 the story to t3 explains a lot more of the terminator stroy line, solves a lot of the mystery involved with it.

Besides the inappropriate humor and shitty one-liners... it was a killer flick.

i think if Kristanna Loken[T-X] wasn't in it i probably wouldn't have bothered watching the movie at all.

you guys remember her from the live-action Mortal Kombat tv-series?[she played as Taja]

you know, one odd thing about this.. is Kristanna being from the MK series, getting this role in T3.......
and the same year, another cast of the MK series "Daniel Bernhardt"[who played as Siro in the series] gets the role as Agent Johnson in Matrix Reloaded/Revolutions.

:spock:

T3 was better than T1. T2 was the best of the bunch. Best story, though the series never really made any sense. It was the most emotionally compelling of the trillogy. And I think it had the best writing/directing/action of the trillogy as well.

T3 was a decent way to spend an afternoon at the theature. Thats all. I would give it 2.5 out of 5 stars. The acting was cheese, the terminatrix was cheese, the car chase with all the empty cars chasing John Connor was the cheesiest. And the ending sucked. It felt tacked on to me.

I dont think they should have made a sequel to T2.

Fun movie, I got exactly what I was expecting. And some good ol' fashion robot-fightin' action.

It seemed more like a direct sequel to the first movie than the second in that they COMPLETELY ruined the whole "The future is not set, there is no fate but what we make for ourselves" concept that was practically mashed down your throat throughout T2, but overall, I loved every second of the film both times I saw it in theaters. I'm definitely picking up the DVD when it comes out.

I'd give it 4.5/5 stars.

I thought T3 was the best of the bunch despite The Governator's absolutely horrid and dated one liners. I loved the ending and was actually glad that Furlong wasnt reprising his role (he was so annoying in T2).

The idea that you cant change fate, only the small details, is interesting if not a bit confusing....and leaves a door open for a ton of sequels :loco:

I liked it, although I thought the fighting sequences were horrrrrrible and the terminators were beaten too easily.

I thought T3 was very true to form. 100% terminator, very excellent. Explosions, action.... it had that, but its not the most important attribute to a Terminator movie is it? The story was also great, and it was cool how all the new characters were developed.

Much better than I thought it would be. Still no where near T2 in my opinion, but I'm a freak for that movie.

I love how the robots fight with no emotion/facial changes...

Best line is roughly:

"She just doesn't understand me. We can't get along."

"She is a female of the proper breeding age. I do not see a problem."

;)

T3 was awesome! I rate it 4 out of 5. Is it really out on DVD?

well, the DVD isn't publically available yet, but it had been ripped and spread around online. :spock:

outside of T2's followup to what happened to Sarah Connor, the only thing i really remember about the story in T2 is there's a morphing terminator.

T3 was better written IMO cuz the actual Terminators were almost secondary to the overall story of John Connor.
