The Terminator Versus Thread

rages just tell us what do u like?we will all just talk about that.

i dont want him 2 like it. i just want him to bash it out like that. it makes me sad, i know it shouldn't but it does, please show a bit more respect, try 2 give it a chance when the dvd comes. i mean u can say u dont like it and it lacked in a things but no like: THE WORST MOVIE OF 2003. i mean,c'mon man have some peace here

1. Terminator 1
2. Terminator 2
3. Terminator 3

Terminator 1 seemed have an atmosphere that the rest didn't have. T2 and T3 had plenty of action mixed with some moments that would make you laugh. Also make-up details were different and computer effects were used. Terminator 1 had something the others didn't. Terminator 1 was a very dark film which seemed to make more sense in certain areas. For example, in Terminator 2 and 3 Arnold always seemed to wear the sunglasses, however he would only wear them sense they were his trademark look for a terminator. Terminator 1 was what ofcourse started it all, but in T1 he didn't wear them because he felt like it or because he looked "cool", but because he was trying to hide his ugly gash which destroyed his Human-eye and revealed his Cyborg-eye and so he used the sunglasses so he wouldn't blow his human appearance. This look seemed to work well for him so they continued to use it in the following movies, but realistically a terminator would care less about how he looks and would simply think about getting it's job done without revealing itself i.e. killing or protecting John Connor. Also, the terminator was mostly silent and said very little dialogue in Terminator 1 which made him more intimidating. He definitely wasn't the social type and didn't show any facial enthusiasm and always managed to keep a straight face. These are simply my opinions about the trilogy.

terminator 1 is an awesome movie. maybe even the best considering it was 20 yearz ago. arnold was so scary in that 1.arnold still scares me even if i watch it today( not scary but u no more like, cant put it into words) and kyle reese was cool. but didn't like sarah in that film. but in t2, she was the best. she was the coolest! the best female character EVER!

yeah T3 had the highest movie budget to date, and i have to stop and ask often, what did they do with the money. half of T2 had better action and effects than all of T3 and had only half the budget T3 had

i think most of it went for arnies pay cheque and the other half was for the crane scene. What ever left was payed to the other actors?

ya i know. 175 million? when i saw t2 and saw it took them 100 million i was like WOW, and when i saw t3 and 175 million i was like WTF?besides how on earth did mostow get that kind of budget?

T1 all the way baby. Sooooooooooooo much ****ing better than the others. HARDCORE TERMINATOR WOOHOO!
Then a tie between T2 and T3, i liked the ending to T3 much much much better. I thought T2 ending sucked ass, and everytime i watch that movie i end up daydreaming about something else, that's how freakin boring it can get.

I personaly like the T-X because she is SUPER HOT and she is a pretty cool terminator as well the T-1000 is cool as well for me this is a hard dession can anyone helpme out

this was discussed many times ina the last few months however i can see that you have just joined us so welcome. I think most of us had agreed the T1000 is far better.

welcome buzz to our killermovies forum. i think that as a machine t-x is better and as an actor T 1000 was better.

Is this supposed to be which one is more physically appealing, which is a more efficient killing machine, or what? As for sensuality I would hope you would choose the T-X, but as for efficiency the T1000 advanced prototype would probably win. The T-X had its weakness in that it had a defined metal body. The T1000 was simply liquid metal that could always regenerate, even after being frozen with liquid nitrogen and shattered to pieces. How do you shoot something that takes no damage to its frame unless it's some sort of explosive device?

And I don't think acting was really a part of the question, but I'm not sure.

I presonaly think the T-X better

Yeah the TX would kick the T-1000's ass because it's more advanced and it's made it has a liquid metal covering an a metal endoskeleton. The T-1000 could only make sharp weapons like knives axes, machetes etc... And the T-X can make flamethrowes and plasma guns as seen in the movie. You guys just say the T-1000 because you like T2 better than T3.

thats right if you guys liked T3 you would say that the T-X is better

How about we use examples from movies instead of speculating affiliation associated with preference of film:

T-1000: At the end of T2 during the helicopter chase scene, the T-800 suddenly applies the brakes to the truck as the helicopter with T-1000 in it crashed into it, causing it to crumple, crash, and eventually explode.

T-X: At the end of T3, the T-800 makes his own dramatic entrance with a helicopter diving into the fall-out shelter, which consequently crashed into the T-X.

The result: The T-1000 promptly emerged from the scene unscathed and wasted no time to move on and find a new vehicle. The T-X lost her lower half of the body, thanks to her metal chasis. Ultimately its mobility and efficiency were severely hampered and that's basically how it failed. With the T-800 grabbing onto its tail it became useless. Imagine the T-800 grabbing the T-1000 -- what could you grab?? It would just shapeshift and slip away, being that it has no body.

Now, I do agree the T-X is radically advanced in that it is able to form complex machinery and moving parts involving chemicals, something the T-1000 is not capable of. In that regards I believe the T-X would make a more efficient terminator for humans; all it'd have to do is change its primary weapon into some sort of mass terminating projectile.

However, we were talking about head to head here, and I'd believe the T-1000 has the edge.

Not the edge man, probably a tie but definetely not the edge.

T2 had suspense, it built up to the action which made the action all that more intense

terminator 2 RULES. i loved the t3 ending though. it was so classy
