Yeah, Dave, I know there are kinda sucky aspects to the movie, but overall, you gotta admit it was pretty good. But, you gotta realize one thing about me when I say a movie is good, I'm looking at the filming, camera angles, CGI, and special FX of it all. The story line usually registers in my mind after the second viewing, which I've only seen it once.
I never really notice the music until the second time around. |
I've just seen this again, and I now agree with you. I still prefer the story and the ending to T2, because it is more upbeat, but T3 has a more realistic ending. The fact that the end of the world was inevitable, that everything that happened was fated and unstopable; that was much more consistent with 'The Terminator' plot than what happened in T2, where they appeared to be able to change the future. Now we know that they only postponed the inevitable.
I'm not sure about a T4 though, because if the future is inevitable, then we already know what happens:
Connor and Brewster lead the survivors of the Holocaust into a resistance movement. He sends his father back in time to protect his mother from the T-100, then re-engineers a T-100 and sends it back to protect himself as a young boy, then he is killed. Brewster sends back a second T-100 to protect Connor and herself from the TX.
