T4 should be decent at least, because Christian Bale is in it… I’m hoping Arnold ends up making an appearance too

I’m disappointed that Christian Bale is down for this. Ever since his break in American Psycho, I get the impression that he’s playing the same character. I find him now synonymous with desperate, raspy-voiced heroes. This trailer does nothing to alleviate my worry of typecasting.

@Ryan M.
I never got around to checking out the Sarah Conner Chronicles. I could never get past the tiny girl from the ads for the show who was supposed to be the female terminator. She just wasn’t believable enough to me. But I did have a bunch of people tell me that it actually wasn’t that bad of a show. Has it been cancelled? What did it actually add to the Terminator mythology? If I may ask.
As said, I didn’t wholly dislike T3. The concept of delayed judgment day, most of the storyline, the special effects, and the action sequences were done well. It’s just that the bad things about the movie listed above far outweighed the good, and in turn ruined it for me.

I’ve got some high hopes this for now, especially with the addition of Christian Bale.

I’m one of the few people that liked T3 I think, but I liked it more or less for the ending.

@Matt: T3 was ok to me. I didn’t have any major problems with it. Specifically I liked the fact that it had Judgement Day happen which was cool because it didn’t paradoxically deconstruct time travel. Did you like Sarah Conner Chronicles (lots of shitty things about, but lots of awesome stuff as well)? get the BD in august (I think) dude trust me its worth it.

@Rian: Yeah dude, I agree this teaser looks cool but it’s only a teaser. Based on McG’s previous work (especialy how shitty his action scenes are) I’m still skeptical. I saw T2 when I was seven and I still remember it clearly (I cried at the thumbs up in lava) and I attribute the film to my desire to make films so I’m just a little too emotional about the sequels.

Yeah…Anyway, the teaser looks alright for a teaser, but I can’t shake the feeling McG is going to turn one of my most beloved franchises into a stinkbomb. Christian Bale is a HUGE improvement over Nick Stahl, however. Although I don’t know if any salvation from T3 will be found here. God I hated Terminator 3. The Story and the action sequences were tolerable to decent, but the dialogue, acting, hammy jokes, visual style, and AARP member Arnold Schwarzenegger were excruciatingly awful. Sorry to turn this into an anti-T3 rant. I am still very skeptical of Terminator movie sans Cameron.

I wish I was. I don’t get women. I sympathize with Timothy Treadwells outlook on the gay/straight-issue in Grizzly Man.
