The worst ARNOLD movie?

[Slick Vic]

That's why the Back To The Future trilogy is the greatest series of all time...not only did it have smarts, more importantly, it had spunnk, laughs, fun and most crucially, DECENCY and HEART.

If we're talkin' trilogy here you're right, Back to the Future is awesome. But I wouldn't call that my favorite trilogy. That honor goes to the Star Wars trilogy. I know.... I know.... It's a six part story, but breaking it up they are my favorite trilogy.

Being this is an Arnold movie thread you'd think The Terminator trilogy would be mentioned as being great, but I felt that for some odd reason Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines fell away from the first 2 films. T3 was great - as a movie on it's own.

I'll admit T3 was better than T2. Terminator 2 seemed more of a drama than action.

do you know there are talks of making T4 with arnold in it and i heard that arnie agreed on doing it as soon as his election campaign gets over...i am really looking forward to that movie.

Yeah. And I've also heard they were gonna go through with T4 without Arnold. Here's what I got....

Now that it is looking certain the Arnold WILL BE winning a second term as Governor in a few more months, the Austrian Terminator himself will not be returning for a cameo role in TERMINATOR 4, according to the film's scriptwriter.

MICHAEL FERRIS, who co-wrote the project with JOHN BRANCATO, has terminated rumors the California Governor was set to make a short appearance at the beginning of the movie as reported by TheArnoldFans.com. Although this was the original plan, the script needed another rewrite based on Arnold's political career.

He says, "TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES kind of closed the book on Schwarzenegger, as did his gubernatorial career."

As far as the plot, Ferris offers this tease: "You will learn about Skynet and what the postapocalyptic future is like."

Perhaps there will be flashbacks with Arnold from the first three films but NO new cameo scenes. TheArnoldFans.com still plans to attend T4 movie sets and screenings even without Arnold's film involvement. SO still around for future updates.

So who the hell knows....

actually i read this in the papers that the production of the has not yet started.the script is ready and the director is waiting for arnold to finish up his politcal work..so yeah who the hell knows..

You know what would be great is if James Cameron and Arnold got together for Terminator 4 - but that's just wishful thinking.

T2 > T3

[Slick Vic]

T2 > T3

You really think that Knny187? T2 was too much drama and not enough action.

[alexxx]

I was actually kind of disapointed when I went to see T3 in the theaters. I though it lacked those crazy machines and the story could have been better. Remember in t2 when they have all those terminators fighting on whats left of the earth? Well I was hopping to see that battle. With Arnold recruited in an underground facility, briefed on his missions, bombs, lazers, bullets all over the place.. stuff like that and some boobies wouldn't hurt.

[MikeThaMachine]

Imagine if Arnold played someone involved in the war that was a great hero or villian and that's why the look was choosen for the T101.

Cause he is old and it would be hard to get back to terminator size.

Ok...not one for explaining but here's why....

T2 had much better acting.  EF did seem like a little bratty kid....but that was the whole point.  Arnold seemed like a better Terminator in T2 & in T3 he was not believable (IMO).  The terminator in T3 (arnold) should have walked in that bar & kicked ass for his clothes just like the first 2 movies.  That opening scene alone made me feel the rest of the movie was going to suck.  The chase seen in T3 (firetruck vs crane truck) was soooo much B.S.  Even if two Terminators existed (had the eye/hand coordination of a computer) that crane could not have flipped like it did & all of the other b.s. involved.  The chase scene in T2 just seemed more believeable like it could have happened between two Terminators.

The terminatrix sucked.  She didn't seem "bad" enough.  Ok...she killed alot of people but if she was designed to destroy other terminators....how did Arnold prevail?

So right it's not even funny, too many movies today just make shit way to unbelievable, whatever happened to action movies with anykind of realism during action scenes.

[alexxx]

Yeah great post knny.

[knny187]

Hey...it's still an arnold movie....I own it & like it.

Just not my favorite

I see your point, Knny187. You're totally right about Arnold's portrayal of the terminator from T2 to T3. He was better in T2. As for the action? Well.... If you're comparing side-by-side like that T2 does come out better.

Knny187, you've changed my mind about T2 being better than T3.... 'cause it is. Guess you can say I had Terminator 3 fever since I had just seen it again the other day. Makes me wanna watch Terminator 2 now. 

[Earl1972]

the original terminator was much better than the sequels

t2 was much better than t3 though

[TheGoldenPrince]

i would say the naked gun series,austin powers series and the american pie series are the greatest series of all time.it has everything,sexual humour,nudity,gags,laughs,hilarious etc...

You sack of shit.

Yeah, Star Wars was great as well but Back To The Future was superior due to its all-round balance (like a great physique almost). Hard to find films these days with everything: smarts, warmth, humour & heart.

total recall sucked ass

That's how I see it as well, Earl1972.

Of all of Arnold's films his most notable ones are Conan the Barbarian and The Terminator. Both are great films and put Arnold on the map. Conan has those memorable line(s) and gore yet The Terminator has the action and nudity [sorry The GoldenPrince  ] Of the two, I personally would have to go with none other than The Terminator!

Conan knocking out the camel for bumping into him is classic.
