I watched Terminator 3 for the first time about 6 months ago and thought it was ok.

I watched it again last night and thought, "Man, compared to the first two, this sucks."

The actions scenes are superior, but the story is just stupid. Also, the romance thing makes the movie like a violent Neighbours or Home and Away (which both suck incidentally).

T1 was great because it scared the living poo out of you, seeing this walking machine after a once-naive young lady.
T2 was great for the action (love the aquaduct scene) and the T-1000 effects. They were fantastic for the day.

But I love The Castle, Harry Potter and Trading Places.

Spot on. Terminator 1 was the best movie of them all as far as the overall plot goes (the skynet/future backstory).

Terminator 3 shouldn't have happened imo.

In the 'car/action' genre i reckon Gone in 60 seconds is by far the best. The original Fast and the Furious is second. Don't know why but it's always the FIRST movie that's the best. T1 was the best out of the 3 movies made, The Fast and the Furious was the best out of the 2 other movies made after it

The Terminator plot was just pointless.

Its as if they couldn't think of anything good so they just made some crap up at the top of their heads.

T2 is good though.

The Terminator I thought was good.

T2 is where it should have ended.

The only piece of The Terminator that remained at the end of the film was Arnold's arm...the one that got crushed in the big cog.

Everything else was destroyed...Miles Dyson's work, Cyberdyne Systems, the hand and chip from the original terminator, the model 101 (Arnie) and the T-1000.

I think they wanted more money.

At the end of T3, I thought that if they were stupid enough to create another Terminator movie, it would be about the resistance's war against the Skynet. I wouldn't mind seeing that. Seeing John lead the resistance to Victory and seeing Kyle Reese again.

Sarah Connor died. We know her story from the first two Terminator films. Now, she's apparently dead.

What more can you do?

Angermanagement was lame, I expect more from Adam and Jack.

T1, 2 and 3 are awesome movies.
T1 fantastic considering the year it was made.
T2 for continuing the story and the special effects were great.
T3 still great movie, not as good as T2 but still good.
Bring on T4..

I watched Mind Hunters on the weekend great movie.

Your half right.

They are making a TV Series called The chronicles or Sarah connor. I think its after T2 before she dies of Cancer.

Terminator 4 is also being made, but its set in the future during the war from what I understand.
