Seen all the Terminator movies again. Only got the new one left. 3 was a little better than I remembered, 5 was worse.

I'd flip 1 and 2 but otherwise I concur with the ranking

I won’t argue with that, but I do love T2. Arnold in his prime, great music, action is superb.

21435 is correct, and I'd slot 6 between 4 and 3

I’ve always found 2 super overrated. It’s got nothing on the brutal, lo-fi efficiency of 1.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Saw it yesterday. Nothing groundbreaking but it was fun. Charlize was good. John Lithgow was good too.

Watching Terminator: Dark Fate.
Spoiler: show
Surprised John Connor is dead. Hope it’s not for political reasons.

I watched it on the plane the other day. Some really bad acting in that movie.

Still 45 minutes to go, but this feels like the worst of the franchise at the moment.
Spoiler: show
The Terminator/Arnold has a human family, and has settled down on a farm. Sarah Connor is a drunk that hunt terminators. John is dead. The new person they have to save is really cute, but I’m not sure why she is important yet.

They should not have had Sarah Connor in this.

Unless they continue the Salvation storyline, I think I'm done watching Terminator movies that come out.

What didn't you like about it? I haven't seen it yet but am very curious, I generally like Leigh Whannell

I would love to see a continuation with Bale involved.

I would be too curious not to. But I found it to be a weak entry in the series. It’s supposed to be a direct sequel to T2, disregarding 3-5 completely, but starts by shitting all over T2.

Wonder Boys popped up on cable yesterday; what a wonderful little film with a great cast.

A Quiet Place

The last movie on my Netflix-list of bookmarked movies.
