Bill Paxton and Lance Henriksen are the only two to my knowledge who have been in all three in some capacity. Michael Biehn would have the set if he'd done a Predator movie too.
I want to see him Minigun a whole room of Xenomorphs with a cigar in his mouth and his one-liners ready!
It was ok, but people have come to expect a classic, which the 4th is not (neither is the 3rd for that matter). Anything less than a movie that is celebrated for decades is a failure in comparison to the part 1 and 2.

No, it just sucked.
It was totally written wrong and had more plotholes and inconsistancies that I care to write up right now.
I like Christian Bale, actually, but he's not John Connor.
The story was screwed up and inaccurate and I remember everyone walking out of the threatre going, "What the **** was that ???"
It was horrible like a graphic car wreck, but much less of a spectacle at the same time.
People who just love action movies won't see a problem with Terminator Salvation.
But people who know and understand the storyline well, and know the ins and outs of the previous movies understanding how utterly vomit-inducing it was.
All that you've said there sums up my reaction to Rise of the Machines, that's as far as I've got; Salvation didn't interest me in the slightest.
Maybe because of Bale, I know he's a successful actor but nowadays it seems he just growls and shouts through his lines and thats enough for me to just not be bothered with his films. In Reign of Fire, Equilibrium and Rescue Dawn he's not so loud and urgent and it allows him to settle in the character a lot more. That's my take anyway.
Arnold's too old for these kinds of movies, imo. He needs to involve himself in more cerebral roles. Leave this kind of stuff to the young action hero stars.
Personally, I think he should get himself involved more in Science Fiction.

Idk tho. Cameron doesn't have what he used to. Hes falling down on the job like so many directors after years of success.
Edit: And dont use avatar as an example of how good cameron still is. Cuz that movie was about one of the most overatted wastes of 14 dollars iv'e ever come across.
Well of course the finished film does has it flaws, But still he does still have it for movie making and you do realise he did write the story to back in 1994.
James Cameron used to have integrity and then he made Titanic and Avatar and i lost all respect for him when the latter came out, as i was to young to even form much of an opinion back then about titanic. But looking back at it, it was basically a mindless cliche love story with a cliche villain/henchman. All centered around the titanic sinking. Which really had nothing to do with the story other than that it's what ends up causing dicaprio to die. Avatar was just dances with wolves in space done up to look really pretty. Ill admit he knows how to draw people in. And i wish i could make that much money on a movie. But as a director i have no respect for him. At least not anymore.
Well i already knew that that and it can be many things another one you can put to it is Pocahontas
Fair enough, But i still think he still has it for making movies even if Avatar did borrow plots from other stories, But as i said in a previous post he did do the story back in 1994 so yeah could've went over it but no he did'nt.
