I Saw The New Terminator Movie and I Witnessed History ***MAJOR SPOILER***
Generally, the movie sucked. I thought that they were trying to end the franchise. Instead, they're trying to reinvigorate it, and I'm puzzled as to why Christian Bale took the role of John Connor. He already has a franchise movie deal as Batman.

As for the spoiler (See Below)
































Here's the spoiler: For the first time, a sitting governor appears nude in a movie, and I mean a mainstream movie, not the home made videos of naked weekend escapades of Governor Sanford in South Carolina.

1. If I'm not mistaken... (spoilerness)
...I believe they just digitally placed Ahnold's face onto the buff, toned, naked body of somebody else.

3. Well, yeah. They made him look a lot younger. (spoiler)
It was Ahnold's face from the first Terminator movie. He doesn't look anywhere NEAR that good now... But it was still a great touch of them to bring that into the franchise.

5. Bale really didn't want to take the role
at first. I guess he was persuaded by the director. There was a story on it in Entertainment Weekly.

6. well, sorta
Bale didn't want it unless he was the main focus. The original script only had him appearing in the last few minutes, only to be killed off.

The script was rewritten for him, and SUCKED FUCKING ASS!

Of course, "McG" could have been handed a Golden-Egg laying goose, and he'd still serve up a shit sandwich
