Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

[Jura]

Will air on Sunday January 13th on Fox. Has got the girl from 300, Lena Headley as Sarah and the female Terminator looks hot and I just realized it's that girl from Serenity. Not the prostitute but the doctor's sister.

Looks decent but I'm not getting my hopes up, because usually shows like this fall flat on their face. It's either going to be really good or be canceled by the fifth episode.

[Shakespearean sTiMa]

you know what's going to be fucking awesome? terminator 4 with christian bale as john connor. fuck yes.

[Shaggy]

To bad that its been released that he only has a small role in the 4th film. Hopefully they keep him for the 5th because they said John Conner is a 2nd lead character in the 5th and 6th film.

As for the series...

I cant wait for it but chances are that it will be cancelled after a few episodes and will go the way of Serenity.

Sad thing about the show is that it takes place and is supposed to link the 2nd film to the 3rd. Which means that Sarah Conner will die in the tv series...that is if it makes it that far.

[Lock Jaw]

I heard it was ignoring the third movie completely and just doing its own thing. I also have not heard of a 4th, 5th, or 6th Terminator film.

[ClockShot]

Summer Glau as the stoic bad ass yet again looks good. The only sticking point for me is what night it's gonna end up on.

[Shaggy]

I heard it was ignoring the third movie completely and just doing its own thing. I also have not heard of a 4th, 5th, or 6th Terminator film.

Oh well I just know that yahoo.com and a few other sites have little timelines going on showing that this is gonna takie place after the 2nd film. They do mention that the events COULD lead up to the 3rd film but then again they could go a different right.

Im just gonna go with what you said in hopes that they dont kill Sarah off.

[Lock Jaw]

Well it IS called the SARAH CONNER chronicles. So if they ever did kill her off it would probably be a series finale.

[Kane Knight]

HEre's hopin it does ignore T3. That was an abortion.

[Shakespearean sTiMa]

kane knight in saying something i can agree with wholeheartedly shocker.

[D Mac]

It's coming on!

[Savio]

I think it ignores everything

[RBM]

Pretty good so far.

Kinda funny how future John decides to send a hot female teenager Terminator to guard him at the age of 15.

[Shaggy]

The first 10 minutes were ehhh....but once the action picked up Ive been "Holy Shit" the whole time..

Summer Glau is hotter than anyone else right now...

[thedamndest]

I'm liking it so far as well. I have a few questions since I am not up on my Terminator canon.

Why would the machines send back a terminator of inferior quality to the T-1000 or the TX? And is this model (the Substitute Teacher) the same model as "The Arnold"?

[Savio]

I wonder if john fucks the chick terminator.

[Savio]

WHO WOULD GET THAT CLOSE TO THERE MOM NAKED?

[D Mac]

I liked it. River is so fine.

[ClockShot]

Upon further review. I think this could work. May skip the first hour of Raw just to see what happens.

Anyone thinking Summer Glau is the model the other hot chick played in Rise of the Machines?

[D Mac]

I always call her River.

[Shaggy]

I wonder if john fucks the chick terminator.

I would bet so...

The show didnt seem as horrible as predicted so maybe it will last a season or two. Im willing to bet if it goes for a while he gets a part of her.

[thedamndest]

Sounds like a jump the shark moment.

[Lock Jaw]

WHO WOULD GET THAT CLOSE TO THERE MOM NAKED?

I wonder if he had a boner. That would have been really awkward.

"Son, are you-"
"IT WAS THE TIME PORTAL!!"

[Skippord]

Summer Glau is crotchkickingly hot

[Jura]

"A family that plays together, stays together".

[Skippord]

Best naked ass kicking ever

[Jeritron]

Pretty fuckin good. I hope it doesn't just play out as one big chase though. I'd like it to follow one story arc, with some variety and change to it throughout. On top of that, it'd be pretty awesome if they occasionally had stand alone adventure episodes with other stuff, or within their travels.

Kinda like the X-files meets the old Hulk tv show once in a while, but mostly focusing on the main story arc.

[OssMan]

UGH this ad was on a zillion times in the Giants game and it looks freaking terrible.

TERMINATOR X
thank you

[D Mac]

You look freaking terrible.

[Hanso Amore]

So he sends a robot from the future to protect him

He then sends an engineer back in time to make future weapons and equipment in a small town in the 60s,

he then uses it to go to the future to stop the more distant future.

So how does he end up in normal time. If he goes to the future, his future ends, and this the resistance ends, therefore he cannot send himself to the future.


My head hurts.

[Hanso Amore]

Stupid

[Purgatory]

Actually, the show was decent. The special effects were rather good for a TV series. For some reason, I kept thinking of some of the shoddy effects on SciFi and expected something along those lines.

I'm not sure I liked the casting for Sarah Connor, though. I understand they were going for more character development for her, but I didn't see much more depth than when Linda Hamilton played her. Although, Lena Headly is definately easier on the eyes than Hamilton was. Hamilton did look good in the first Terminator, however.

Summer Glau is VERY easy on the eyes as the fem Terminator.

All in all, it was a decent start. Hopefully, they keep it going strong.

[Hanso Amore]

they also only made the termintaor a chick and picked the chick from Firefly because they knew it would get their legion of nerd fans to watch.

when your ripping from a shitty cancelled show, how good can you be?

[ClockShot]

Not a bad show today. Gonna have to get the DVR ASAP.

[Lock Jaw]

I thought it was pretty "meh" today. I think it needs to find its groove in episodes like this that aren't straight up Terminator chases them and they run episodes.

But it definitely has potential.

Though all this time travel stuff is going to get really confusing now that it is official that The Resistance and Skynet are sending people back all the time and not just to help/kill the Connor family.

:foc:

[D Mac]

Firefly was the goods.

[D Mac]

Just watched the 2nd episode. This could get interesting.

[Skippord]

God Summer Glau GOD

[The Lone Wolf]

I'm still surprised they are making this if they plan on making another movie in the near future

[DS]

Well if the movies continue the story from after 3, I don't see why you'd be surprised they make a series of what happened before 3.

[Savio]

they also only made the termintaor a chick and picked the chick from Firefly because they knew it would get their legion of nerd fans to watch.I dunno she looked pretty hot as a Mexican.

[Jura]

Well she has experience in being a "human weapon" so it was a safe choice I think.

[ClockShot]

Not a bad episode. Lot of things going down now which makes it interesting.

[tuney41]

may have to check this one out

[Reavant]

she looks amazing in the shot that comes in like a second after this one where her eyes turn blue and shes looking right at you.

[Jura]

I keep meaning to take a snapshot of that. I'll do it on the next episode.

[D Mac]

I did her.

[Reavant]

[Lock Jaw]

Anyone still watching this show? I am. Mainly because its Terminator.

Ever wonder what the machines would do if they ever killed off all humans? They'd all be like "Huzzah for machines! ........ Sooooo..... what should we do now?"-"I dunno... play hacky-sack?"

[Downunder]

I stopped watching after the 3rd episode - pretty boring.

[ClockShot]

Still watching. Skipped last night because I wanted to catch RAW. Stupid move on my part.

[Shaggy]

I dont think its as good as it could be...

But besides the fact that it is terminator...I watch it so I dont have to watch Cena run his mouth during the first hour of raw.

[Jura]

Watched Raw instead but I always download the new episodes. Also here is the pic Reavant was talking about:

[ClockShot]

Bummer. I was hoping this would go alot longer. Season finale is already next week. :(

[Lock Jaw]

I totally forgot today was Monday. Dag.

[Xero]

Haven't seen tonight's episode yet, but I find it pretty good and am following it. I obviously wasn't expecting Terminator 2 quality here.

I guess my best way to put it is that it's decent, but I don't want to see a movie based on the show, which is probably where they'll eventually go if it continues (I've heard rumblings that it's getting shitty ratings).

[Innovator]

TIVO it...I like it

mainly cause it's Terminator

[Jura]

Main reason: Summer Glau

Lena Headley is not that bad either.

[D Mac]

Haven't watched this since the 3rd episode. Which was kinda boring. It gets better right?

[Reavant]

i love it

[Reavant]

also the dude from 90210's reaction to watching cameron do ballet was pretty funny... it was like he was watching a fat guy in a g-string working a stripper pole

[D Mac]

Ballet? So she wears tights? :drool:

[Lock Jaw]

She did ballet in that one episode on Angel too...

[Kalyx triaD]

Starting DL'ing the episodes on XBL. Like it so far.

[ClockShot]

Upon further review, I think this show merits a second season.

Got a little teary at that one scene at the park.

[Lock Jaw]

Weak cliffhanger though.

[ClockShot]

Weak cliffhanger though.

Yeah. Summer's probably gonna walk out of there like nothing happened. That's if Fox goes for another season.

[Skippord]

I support any show that uses Johnny Cash in the end of the season

[Kalyx triaD]

Finished the season. Nice show, though certain plots were left open (John's crush at school with the weird rep for example). Hopefully a second season will give us more Cameron/John moments like the 'conversation' scene. The Car-Bomb-Season-Finale is getting rather cliche'd, though. I'm much more interested in why Agent Ellison was spared by Comortie.

So far the show's 'tight'.

[Jura]

Cromartie. One reason could be that he learned that Ellison was checking out Sarah Connor's file so it would be better to keep him alive and maybe Cromartie can get some info from him or get to Sarah through Ellison.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Cromartie had no reason to kill Ellison... He wasn't a threat to him, and he wasn't part of the mission... I'm assuming that's what it was. That, or Ellison is important to the events that lead to the robots taking over.

[Reavant]

why dont they just send a machine back in time to build sky-net

[Kalyx triaD]

Cause they'll be no franchise, silly.
