Maybe in T5 he's an old cyborg from the future who gets sent back in time to kill his young cyborg self so he doesn't become an old cyborg, but the stress from trying to kill himself is what makes him appear old in the first place.

My disappointment with t4 was that it didn't continue the fast paced, non stop action theme of the first three movies. T3 was bad but at least it tried to stick to the format of the other two.

in t4 I would have liked to have seen Connor and Marcus trying to keep Kyle Reese alive in a doomsday world...from some new terminator model that is hunting Kyle...as they make their way to some facility to send Reese back in time to protect Sarah in the Terminator 1 timeline. That would have tied the movies together better IMO and would have allowed for the go go go fast moving action scenes like T2 had.

The terminator factory was so disappointing and Nuclear computer chips sitting out in the open really ruined that movie for me. And don't even get me started in the terrible Helena Bonham Carter.

For T5 I like the idea of having Arnold playing two roles...the original terminator model and the human that sky net modeled the terminator after. Use the same effect they used on Patrick Stewart in Xmen 3 to make him look young for the terminator part. The human Arnold character and a sent back in time Marcus are tasked with once again keeping John Connor alive from a..this time bad guy..Arnold Terminator.

Wow I think I'm going to have to put you on ignore as Vangelis' score is one of the most beautiful soundtracks in all of movie history.

It's the synth. I can't take the synth. I'm sure if something else was used I'd love it. It's crap to me and I stand by that.

T3 was on today, and it was actually better than I remembered. I think it possessed a lot of the charm and style of T2.

One question though, I always see T1 and T3 being played on TV, but very rarely, if ever have I seen T2. This seems like it might be James Cameron related. I don't see many of his movies being rebroadcast on TV.

he did T1, so it's not anything Cameron specific. it's likely due to the fact that T2 is almost an hour longer than both T1 and T3, and the rest of Cameron's big movies are also between 2-3 hours. you don't see many movies that length being played on TV outside of the actual movie channels
