TERMINATOR 3 - RISE OF THE MACHINES!

*MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS*

WOOOO, I just went to go see T3 and WOW, I loved it!

The storyline in my opinion was "Ok", but damn, they just keep making Arnolds opponents tougher and tougher! I feel sorry for the guy!

Graphics, WOW... this movie is amazing, there is a scene when she is driving around a crane and tearing up the city, I dont know if they paid for all that damage, or if its all CG. If its CG its some of the best stuff I have ever seen!

For anyone that wants a motivation for 3D design, go see T3 and you will be on your computer all night modelling and modelling away!

I dont want to get into any spoilers so I wont say more until someone else does user added image.

What did you guys think of this movie?

awsome movie. I thought the ending was a bit unmoral though user added image. And WHY THE HELL did they not play the terminator theme in the opening credits? The bastards!

Hey guys in far countries other than america ( :p). I will go into the theatre and film it for all of you! LOL, j/k. Anyways, one other thing i wanted to add... is the T-X just makes the movies THAT much better! Decked out in leather, and when she arrives for the first time :O, nice figure. Anyways, other than that.. one thing I was amazed at, is how they had arnolds face half ripped off at the end and all burnt.. and it actually looked like him! That was so flawless!

could it also have something to do with different formats? I know TV is NTSC > PAL... don't know if film is different. I wouldn't think it'd be, though.

Films are usually delayed because of licensing deals and driven by the way ratings are calculated on box office sales- very few films receive a world wide release.

Few films are 'translated' for the English market, but they are subject to our film classification which is not the same as in the USA. In some respects the UK one is is rather more liberal (mostly concerning full frontal nudity) and in others not (some language can cause a film to get higher age rating in the UK than the USA). Subject to getting a classification certificate, film directors can be asked to remove or censor parts of releases for specific markets. It is a bit like the games market where certain things (blood for example for German releases) are removed for different releases.

It is vastly more expensive to launch worldwide and if a film is bombing in the USA it may never be released here at all. As far as I know we use the same cinema projectors as the USA so I don't think it is about format- it's more about classification and maximising profit.

I still don't understand a few things.

1) Why could Arny operate after he took out his second battery?

2) and this one I hate a MAJOR problem with: Why the hell was the T-X roaring when she was trying to get out of Arny's grasp?She's a machine, she didn't have to act like a monster.
