Terminator 4: Salvation

I assume he means Man and it's creation, machines. Man created the computers and created the machines, which are built to have a responsibility (for example, SkyNet was created to wipe out a deadly computer virus across the world). Leave that creation unchecked, and things can go unexplainably wrong (SkyNet becoming self-aware, turning on mankind), resulting in our undoing.

Whoa, good call. I never thought about it like that! Good answer that barand1, and so true too.

See, this movie is starting to get me to think (not very hard I might add...) T3 never really did that for me. We need to return to that type of movie.

For example, in T2, when Arnie said: "It's in your nature to destroy yourselves" it made me think about what he said, and the consequences, e.g. wars, fighting.

And another famous phrase from T2:

"I know now why you cry. But it is something I can never do."

That got me thinking too. Powerful script. I hope the same can be said for T4.

I suppose T3's message was if you prepare and plan to do something, that something has to happen first before you can do that no matter how bad it is, if that makes any sense. I guess that's been the underline message of all three films though.

I love that line, who would of thought of ever feeling sorry for a machine.

Except with T3's message they did'nt really do a good job of it they concetrated more on the action.

Salvation looks like it's full of action backed up by a very good story line. I hope I haven't jinxed it by saying that.

If people go to watch Salvation with an open mind, I think it can do the right job. I've grown to accept T3. It doesn't fit in with The Terminator or T2 Judgement Day but hey, it's given us the chance to see the war.

Exactly!

It's like in Terminator's CPU there's a list of commands that he cannot do...And because he has understood the meaning of crying (finally), it's jumped to the top of his list of "not to do" list (or maybe it's just behind self terminating).

Yeah, it begs the question - did the T-800 start to feel emotion or did it just understand why people cry? I'm sure it's the latter but it's nice to slightly think he felt a bit upset too and therefore wanted to cry.

I used to act out that scene with my sister (lol!). Now that is sad, but for the wrong reasons.

Terminator 4: Salvation trailer

Hello Everyone 😄 ,

Here is a Terminator Salvation trailer I found on Apple.com :

Thanks for the post / pic / link Benhacker. Nice to hear from you!

With Christian Bale attached to it, I'm extremely confident T4 will be awesome 🙂

He's one of the best actors today.

Agreed.

Someone needs to start a "Bale as Connor" thread on here where they can express what they think of Bale's casting...

I would but I'm too scared to...

Pics of the T-600 and some of the talk that happen at the panel

- Bryce Dallas Howard had an analogy to respond to a question about how they’re going to incorporate the ability to change your fate. Bryce held up a plastic cup and said if the cup is you and the table is fate, the assumption is if you drop the cup it will hit the table/fate. She dropped the cup and grabbed it with her other hand, saying that fate can be changed based on action.

Man, I wish that "T4" footage shown at Comic-Con was available on the internet; I read a breakdown of what was shown over at www.empireonline.com, and it sounded very cool indeed (and the reaction to it appears to have been overwhelmingly positive!) 🙂 .

The teaser trailer that *has* been released also looks most promising. In fact, without wishing to jump the gun, based on everything I've seen/heard in relation to the movie so far, it seems that McG could very well follow in the footsteps of people like Daniel Craig and Heath Ledger; both had their doubters to begin with, but ultimately drew great praise for their work (as James Bond and the Joker respectively).

I'm still hoping, though, for a secret cameo appearance from the Governator himself 😛 ...

i wont see it because arnold aint in. you cant have terminator without the star himself

Well, I'm still hoping that the governator will make at least a cameo appearance in "T4"; intriguingly, the producers have neither confirmed nor denied this possibility ...

And this article just adds further fuel to those rumours 😄 ; check this out: http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=23222

Should be good.

I can't wait to read everyone's reaction and thoughts on TS when it's released.
