Stupid

Rating: Null/10 (8 July 2003)

I don't understand the pure idiocy of some people.
T2. Good movie. Nice action scenes. Great use of CG for the time. Other director's would have cut the CG short or say, no this is too much work, whatever, but no, Cameron did it all. He made the T1000 go inside out, spill out from holes is stuff, etc. Forget about the one liners already. Those don't totally ruin a film. Neither does the opinion that Edward Furlong was whiney. Some idiot on the forums said T3 has better acting. Please shoot yourself right now to preserve the intelligence of the huamn race. The acting in T2 was amazing you idiot. Edward Furlong may be an exception to some but, I dunno, I bought the DVD and I never thought he was whiney. How the hell is a kid being chased by a f-ing liquid metal Terminator with ammo flying everywhere supposed to act? And who cares anyways. Morton and Hamilton were brilliant.
T3. I'll give it only one thing: nice action scenes. Even nicer than T2. The concept of what the TX is is a little bit ridiculous, but whatever. Kristanna Loken looks so damn hot. I love her. Beautiful outfit as well. The quality of the CG isn't really that bad as one review said it was. Otherwise the movie is pretty crappy. Within 10 minutes of the film I was p***ed. What happend to the metal logo intro? None of that at all. What happened to the kick ass Terminator music? Only at the end credits. Tradition and consistancy give the franchise identity and they're nice touches, although if I was a director I'd put more importance on that. One thing that p***ed me off was that Mostow doesn't even know how to film scenes properly. Some scenes don't look right and he uses slow motion in some pointless places. If you thought T2's one liners were stupid then wtf is with "talk to the hand". That is the single most stupidest thing I can think of for a Terminator to say. And what's with Arnold acting like a moron. That whole "TX has infected my system" bit is pretty lame. The way Arnold stuggles with the virus in him was pretty clicheic and lame. What the hell is the scene with him banging a car with his hands in the hanger scene? And since when does restarting your system get rid of a virus? And when he put his own head back on... gimme a break. He looked pretty f-ing dead to me when the TX practically busted his head off with connections severed and all. The whole thing seemed pretty stupid. Mostow can't even get his facts straight. It clearly shows in T2 that Connor was 10 not 13 when the Terminator first encountered him. And the T-101 says he's supposed to kill Connor and that he'll be back. How is that possible when he blew himself up with the TX? oh, you mean another model 101? or what? There's inconsistencies and stupidity everywhere. At one point Connor mentions has enough fire power to blow up 10 super computers. Really? All 10 of them? Wow! The cameo appearance of Dr. Silberman was stupid. What's he even doing there? When he sees the Terminator he just runs away. Oh-kay.... and the fumbling for the keys cliche.
BAD: The script is bad. The acting isn't particularly good. Filmed poorly. The T-101 says and does some stupid things. Inconsistencies in the plot.
GOOD: A few nice action scenes. Loken is f-ing beautiful. So damn beautiful it makes me sick.
Conclusion: Stupid.
