The last time i saw this movie was about 3-5 years ago, i think, and after watching some videos about this now, it's not a very good movie anymore. I do like the ending and T-850 clearing out the future for John and Kate, but the chases and fighting, doesn't bite so much comparing to T2 anymore. Half of this movie is actually the same shit as many other action movies if you ask me.
1 star for a good ending and 1 star for T-850 clearing out the future. So that's 2/5.
@icedtea1996 Perhaps. But don't you think he would be a bit tougher considering all the crap he has been through? Not only in this one, but in T2 as well. Ya know, constantly under the threat of having his head blown off. Not to mention all that time his mom spent getting him ready for all this. Maybe it's the actor. He's just bad.
Even though John expected to be the leader one day, that's like any of us trying to start an armed resistance a week or so after our home countries get invaded. You're ready with the idea, but you never expect to actually use it. You never hope to see the day.
John was the same way, he had the idea in mind all the time. But never actually expected to fulfill the role. Therefore, he appeared alot weaker then he was supposed to.
I always thought it was ironic that he says it's a fallout shelter for VIPs, only they didn't get the message. It is now protecting the two most important VIPs of the future--so it is fulfilling its function.
(continued) I should have realized, our destiny was never to stop Judgement Day. It was merely to survive it...together. The Terminator knew. He tried to tell us...but I didn't want to hear it. Maybe the future has been written. I don't know. All I know is what the Terminator taught me...never stop fighting. And I never will. The battle has just begun.......
By the time Skynet became self aware, it had spread into millions of computer services across the planet. Ordinary computers in office buildings, dormrooms, everywhere. It was software, in cyberspace. There was no system core. It could not be shutdown. The attack began at 6:18 P.M., just as he said it would. Judgement Day. The day the human race was nearly destroyed by the weapons they built to protect themselves.
if this insident happened 10 years after the 2nd terminator then sarah should have been in it cuz she would have been in like her high 50's or low 60's
No. They stayed in the fallout shelter and waited underground while the earth was destroyed by the missiles. However, anyone who wasn't deep underground that day was killed: The president, all of the planet's main leaders, billions of ordinary people.
I absolutley LOVE the Terminator franchise.... but I never got something: Instead of battling with Skynet for the future, why didn't tech-com just go back in time with the intent of stopping Einstein, Oppenheimer, and/or The Manhattan Project?
@7887477 that......is pure bullcrap. CRAP. what the ass are you talking about, are you roleplaying like you're in the terminator universe or something?
The most terrifying aspect is that this can be a reality and when a computer system becomes self-aware there is NOTHING you can do to stop it. It will kill you.
This ending gives me shivers down my spine every time I watch it. Despite popular consensus, I thought that T3 was a beautiful way to end the franchise...it's a shame that TS went and pretty much crapped all over it.
they could've stopped the inevitable judgement day from ever happening by a number of ways...or atleast stop the nukes from ever falling..but i doubt they couldve stopped the cyber army so easily...oh well..they won in the end anyway..but at a very heavy price..
I personally thought that Terminator 3 was my least favorite Terminator. It was great, but not phenomenal. It had some really great parts, yet had some parts that could have done better. A 4/5 movie IMO.
They didn't know it was coming. Besides, most of America's and Russia's Nuclear weapons are submarine based and launched. This is mainly due to the SALT I and SALT II treaties.
bcoz7264 i know that many people say that T3 is worse than the first 2 T films but about the written future and unrwritten future. Maybe the future repeats itself but in other ways. Or maybe some parts are written and other are unwritten. I am just saying my opinion so dont bullshit me please.
People hated T3 because its the same thing as the 2nd one. The second movie DID NOT need a sequel. People hated it because it threw out all the lessons from the 2nd movie and copied it. A female terminator comes back in time to kill John Connor and Another terminator comes to save him. The lesson was that the future is unwritten but this movie says it's written in stone.
Thats why so many people hated it. But it is a good movie. Just not as good as the first two.
I know this comment is 3 months old, but I don't think the first two Terminator movies had the message of the future being unwritten, seeing as how the future was directly influencing the past. Judgement Day, in both movies, always happens, the Resistance always fought the Skynet Army, it always happens. The only things that changed in the first 2 movies were little details, when JD occurs, when Skynet becomes self-aware, who builds it, etc. The HUMANS said "There is no fate", for morale prob.
The ending is awesome! I don't know why people hated T3. I enjoyed it. I guess it didn't have that bonding like in Terminator 2, but the mission was get in and get out with the limited time they had. They were going to escape but John wanted to try and stop it...
The ending was inspiring. Inspires a lot of things I do, including movies. lol after the movie ended I marched out of the theater with Tech-COM on my mind. I was a die hard fan when younger. Including with Arnold.
@jdeluxtornadochaser Of course it was a decent movie!! but people underrated it because T2 was perfect!! it's like the best movie ever so any movie coming after is gonna be crap!! wait for the 3rd Batman movie in 2012, people are goin to dislike it
@HaloModder555 Your right, this was a good movie, but a lot of people do not like it due to the fact that it does not stand up to T2, which is probably my favorite movie of all time. Does it stand up to T2? No. It is nowhere near as good, but it is still good. However, it should be noted that The Godfathers that came after the first were good, but just not quite as good. Anything after T2 was a hard act to follow, and there was no way anyone could match it. T3: Decent attempt = decent movie.
Beautiful ending...an eye opener...not from Terminator movie franchise point of view...but also in real..
nukes aren't going to help anybody...but they could destroy everything...
so destroy all nukes...
