Terminator Salvation

Today was my birthday. My parents took me to go see the new terminator movie which GREATLY exceeded my expectations. I was so irritated at the third terminator movie with its destruction of the whole "no fate" theme of the first two movies - not to mention their wimpy impression of john connor, his annoying bossy girlfriend, a stupid malfunctioning arnold, and a ridiculous chick terminator that was less advanced than the T1000 of T2. Before seeing T3, I had a group of friends over to watch the first 2 consecutively and then we went strait from those to watch the first midnight showing of T3. What a disappointment! So I wasnt even going to bother with this one until it hit the cheap seats (especially with no arnold in it!) except that my parents offered to take us to a movie of my choice for my b-day. Christian Bale was a MUCH better John Connor, and the movie spectacularly lived up to the point of the first two movies while not needing to acknowledge the travesty of the third. (My dad said i take these movies too seriously.)  Nice save John Brancato and Michael Ferris.
