  • Terminator: Genisys

    The name is stupid. Lets get that out of the way.

    But... tell me if I'm wrong. Does this look like it might not suck?

    So far, it kinda looks like this is going to be better than the third and fourth movies.



    I really like the initial reproduction of the scenes from the first movie.

    And so we're clear, this isn't high cinema. But still... not bad I'd say.

    I'm in "wait to netflix it" mode for this one... just as I have been for the others.

    I enjoy myself some robot time traveller destruction action.
    I'm not conceited, conceit is a fault and I have no faults...

    Civ and WoW are my crack... just one... more... turn...

      Yeah. I rarely go to the theater anymore.

      Though, I was impressed recently by one near me that underwent some recent renovations. They added these really comfy recliners, started selling alcohol and legit food (like burgers and stuff), and even have a call button so you can summon a servant to give you a handjob.

      The last one, I'm not so sure about. But it was still very nice inside.

      The seating capacity was only 30. I like that. Crowds are the worst.

        Yeah, there's a couple of cinemas that have some projections rooms like that. Hoyts Premium and some others.

          Well since the first and second ones weren't exactly high cinema either, I can live with that.

            hmm, real food would be a bonus, though they better still have popcorn!

                Terminator 2 won four academy awards.

                  And Pulp Fiction won none.

                  Though I've heard it argue that Terminator 2 marks the summit of movie editing and that could well be true.

                    Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, Best Makeup, and Best Visual Effects, I'm not sure the qualifies for high cinema but I guess I'll concede that one and just say
                    Terminator 1 wasn't so I can live with that

                      Can't. By putting it in the title they have created an impassable barrier. And it's not a transparent impassable barrier, so I'm unable to watch the alleged movie.

                        I've not been able to find any actual definitions for this term (and yeah, I was the one to use it first, so my bad). So I'll have to rely on industry awards.

                        I mean, they count. Seems like visuals and sound are pretty important to film.

                        The first one has a rating of 8.1 on IMDB and is ranked #217 on the top 250 list

                          Yep, that's why I conceded that one.

                            I didn't say you didn't concede that one.

                              I was confused. It sounded like you didn't notice that I did because you were still trying to justify your comment. Nevermind.
