I'm totally cereal. Who actually expects this series to be good? The writing sounds absolutely atrocious. How can you expect this to be good when you haves lines like, "Grab the guns. I'll make pancakes," or, "Boy: I call shotgun. Girl: I call nine millimeter". Wasn't Terminator 3 bad enough? :(

IF this goes the full 13 episodes, I'll be impressed. I just can't picture the scope of the Terminator films being captured properly on a weekly TV series. It'll do okay because well...there's no new shows on right now, what with the writer's strike and all.

The commercial was just on and I literally read the title of this thread as they said "Terminator: The Sara Conner Chronicles"...it was pretty weird.

Anyway, yeah, it looks terrible. Let the writers' strike end!!! The only thing I can actually look forward to is Lost coming back.

I'm hopeful, if not just to see Summer Glau do well. Not that I don't have my doubts, but the pilot's actually pretty decent and you could pull a couple lines out of context from just about any show and give the same impression.

Are you kidding me? "Grab the guns. I'll make pancakes" is great! And how do we know "pancakes" arn't some kind of explosive device? Actually, I hope they mean the kind that are fluffy and delicious.

People need to lighten up a little.

So...what's the basic premise of this show? Does it take place before T2 or after T2? Is John Connor in it? I think I read somewhere that it has a schoolgirl Terminator or something? Is this about MORE robots from the future? Why do we need to see this? Why is Fox suddenly going back to all these old franchises? Aliens? Predators? Schoolgirl Terminators? How does this fit into movie continuity? Does it ADD anything to the Terminator mythos? Why are we seeing all this Terminator stuff now? Is there anyone who still cares about The Terminator? And if there is anyone who still cares about The Terminator, do any of them NOT consider the property to be equally as effectively dead as the Alien and Predator series?

There are lots of things the television industries don't take notice of.

Terminator 2 was on TV the other day and I decided to watch it again.It's a brilliant movie because it had a perfect balance of action, character development, themes and morals, questions on life and humanity. They sure don't make them like they used to, it's all just over the top action and superficial dialogue. I've got a feeling this TV series will further molest the greatness of Terminator 1 and 2.

Whatever happened to real storytelling? 3 dimensional characters? Artistic cinematography? Ethical undertones? Now it's all trash, absolute trash rotting our minds.

It's a bad line. It just is. It's almost as bad as Batman and Robin's Mr. Freeze line, "Ok everybody, chill!"

Basically, from what I gather, it takes place after T2, and yes, a terminator disguised as a highschool girl as been sent to protect John. :roll: Yeah, there's pretty much no need for this series.

BlueBarad

They're making THREE new sequels. Directed by "McG", the guy who directed the Charlie's Angels movies.

On the plus side, though, it's got a few things going for it. No more time travelling protectors from the future, it's FINALLY gonna be all future war with humans vs machines, and it's supposedly got Christian Bale playing John Connor.

Hopefully they can manage to score a decent screenwriter. Maybe it'll somewhat entertaining.

hmm, didn't know that. Sounds good, I remember I played a Terminator 3 game, and the ending was what happens after T3

[spoiler] The Terminator's cpu is still intact from after the explosion (when he killed the chick Terminator) and I forget if it was Connor or not, but someone gets the cpu and puts it in a giant ass Terminator mech thing. [/spoiler]

maybe the new movies will have that incorporated into them.
