I saw that movie yesterday. That was probably the longest chain of explosions / guys getting throw throw glass I've ever seen.

I saw one on a bus shelter after coming out of Transformers ROTF. My boyfriend and I stood there like idiots, starring at it. We didn't find out until a few weeks later what it was for. |

If anybody wants I can give the Background story I know from reading a few of the interviews with the writer. The concept sods surprisingly interesting, but then again so did Terminator Salvation... and well, I try to pretend that movie didn't exist.

The greatest part in the new terminator movie by far was when the half terminator half human guy fell out of the airplane thing and skipped across the water. I lol'd for like 10 minutes after seeing that. The rest was pretty meh... I wanna know which scene it was that Christian Bale started raging at some stage hand for walking around on the set.
btw, did anyone aside from me at first think that "Transformer ROTF" stood for "Transformers Rolling on the Floor" ?

My favourite part of Terminator Salvation was when John Connor and the others were examining the piece of Skynet equipement and testing the signal.
I feel as though I've seen it somewhere before.. Maybe like in Transformers 2007 when Lennox and his team were looking at Scorponok's tail?
It was the EXACT SAME SCENE. |

lol I first thought Transformer ROTF was that too. XD
The only good thing that came from Terminator was that 10 minute hilarious freak out by Christian Bale during the making of the movie.

Ya, I thought the exact same thing. That thing was a complete rip-off of transformers. Maybe they started running out of money for terminator and started recycling some of the transformers models :p.

I just saw District 9. Wholly crap guys, this movie was awesome. The first story I've seen in a very long time where I really has no idea what was going to happen. The acting was awesome, the way it shot was awesome, the CGI was awesome (better than if not equal to Transformers). I find it absolutely amazing that they pulled this off with only $30,000,000.
Definitely see it. WAY better than every thing else this summer.

Ya I'm hearing/reading amazing reviews on it so far. My favourite, "In an ideal world, every Hollywood studio suit would be forced to sit through District 9 as part of a curriculim titled "How to Make a Summer Movie That Delivers." Gunna see it Sunday cant wait!

Neill Blomkamp (the director) is a superstar in the making. Peter jacksons is already up there as well. These guys are gonna be legends in time. |
