Not bad for a movie that's only just begun filming.

Wow that looks like it's not going to suck. Never thought I'd say that about a Terminator movie again.

Mr.Bale is doing a very good job of making me develop a man crush on him. I fear for my heterosexuality this week when Dark Knight opens.
Oh yea the trailer looked good.
They've replaced Arnold Schwarzenegger with Christian Bale as the headliner (if not the robot)?
Huh.
No value judgements. Just sayin'.
L337 is not a word. BA7F is a word.

Wow, this just came out of no where for me. Looks interesting, even though not much is shown.
I thought I'd never want to see a terminator related show again, this might change my mind...

Thank God for Christian Bale.
I wonder if they manage to put a "NOT without an incident" in there. And whether a terminator can do gun katas. It must be done.

I do believe it is a movie not a show.

Bale? I'm not sure he fits the role of Connor. Well, he's the current Hollywood darling so i guess we'll see how well this goes.

I was sold back when Moon Bloodgood signed up.
But that was dampened a bit by the recent announcement of Helena Bonham Carter being in the flick. That's just some crazy casting.

Same here. I don't know of anything he's ben in that I didn't like.
Getting killed, though? In a way that you don't like? Suck it up, Gertrude.
I hated John Connor in T3. Talk about cutting the nuts of that character. Christian Bale can handle the weight of the character. The entire future of the human race rests on the man (or at least the robots think so).
We shall grapple with the ineffable, and see if we may not eff it after all.
I want to be excited about this, but I just can't get past the feeling this franchise is being whored yet again, because some studio exec needs money for a new beach house.
Just on the basis of Christian Bale though, I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt... for now.

Yeah, I totally agree. With T3 and the Sarah Connor Chronicles, there's this sense I have that they've abandoned any kind of cohesion or unified vision.

Bale seems to be the new messiah for restarting once beloved film franchises though, so i'll give him the benefit.

Oh yea, this is going to be awesome.

A PG-13 rating? That's....that's not good.

Unless those clowns sold their souls, for some real scriptwriting talent, this thing is DOA.

Are these two writers joined at the hip? They have the exact identical writing credits. Ugh.
IMDB lists Reese as a character. It gives me headaches trying to figure out where this will be shoehorned into the existing "canon".

Yes, he did. So that's fine if the point of the movie is to cover stuff that happened between Judgement Day and Reese going back, though of course that would leave us (the audience) with no resolution (since we know Skynet is/will-be still around to send back the T-1000). If this movie goes past that part of the timeline, either Reese won't be in the film after a certain point, or they've mangled it.
Right now I just don't know what part/time of the setting this movie is supposed to explore.
