So, I just came back from Terminator Salvation, and it sucks.
The Ahnold scene was a complete turn off.
The effects were too CG. Not credible.
The good thing was that many scenes were straight from the original trilogy.
The jeep, the fight in the terminator factory, Ahnold melted and frozen, many shots were even in the same angles they used for similar shots in the originals, making this movie feel as an integral part of the terminator world.
Don't be so mean to Tim.

Well Ahnold isn't a 14 year old girl so I don't know what to say.

I didn't know about it till I read a post on Wargamer that the tie in game for PC can't be installed because they fucked up the installer in the production process. I honestly thought this would be game only, though, till I checked their webpage.
I didn't know about it until I was watching Terminator III and the director of IV was emceeing it.
Director looks like he belongs on Queer Eye. Not all giggly and floppy, just the look.

3 did suck big style but Resurrection wasn't too bad. I quite enjoyed seeing the aliens redone with flashy modern effects.

Just...WTF were they thinking :bleeding:
Resurrection was horrible. Cartoonish, and not in a good way either. Fucking Frenchies.
Even the shoplifter couldn't save that mess.

It reminds me of the NMA pieces of shit who hate Fallout 3 just because it's a "Fallout" game not done in ancient isometric style by the original designers.
I guarantee you that if Fallout 3 was the same exact game, but called "Nuclear Wasteland", those same losers would be all over it.

Because I love the Terminator story? Not hard Caliga. I'll probably like this one too no matter what the critics say.

I get that, but you can enjoy the Terminator story by watching "The Terminator", or "Terminator 2" (except you can't possibly enjoy any moments in which Edward Furlong is 'acting' :bleeding: ).

She is big, but I don't know how big.
It ain't my scene, and I left Eretz back in 1995.
I know she still plays in the radio.
Back in the day galgalatz used to play her shit all the time.

Was it an alcoholic drink?
Yellow drinks that I can think of would be some sort of mashkeh toseis with vodka.
I don't remember that movie that well, because I didn't like it, but I'm pretty sure coca cola still the most popular drink in Israel.

Bubble Fizz or something equally retarded. The movie made it seem like an Arab drink that Israelis liked too. Or vice versa. As in: OMG we both eat lots of Humus! OMG we both like Bubble Fizz!

I don't know any drink by that name.
If the islamotards drunk it, I assume it was non-alcoholic, probably a soft drink.
There are lots of soft drinks in israel, and a couple are yellow, but there isn't an all yizrel drink that everybody loves.
No such a thing as a "typical" israeli soft drink.
If anything, israelis love coca cola.
Or rather Kosher Cola.

:huh: You don't what you're talking about. Our tastes merely coincide most of the time. So if I know he liked a movie there's a good chance I'll like a movie.
Anyways I often don't agree with the majority of the critics so that doesn't bother me. I only reference them when they back me up.
