I COULD NOT EVEN STOP GOING SQUEE AND SQUEE AGAIN. I was totally going to do this objective review and then the show started and there was shooting and then everyone was blowing up things and shooting things and happy. So happy.
I really enjoyed that, which surprised me, as I've never seen the Terminator movies. Well, not all the way through, anyway. I mean, like anyone immersed in American pop culture, there are certain clips that I couldn't help but see over the years. But I really liked all three of the main characters. I loved Sarah, so determined and brave; John, such a complete teenager and understandably afraid of his future; and Cameron, who kicked ass. :-D I also liked the FBI guy who's on their trail. Yay!
FOX. Picking up in the middle of the Terminator movies, Sarah Connor is on the run with her teenage son, the savior of Mankind. Terminators still keep showing up to kill them, there's an FBI agent who thinks she's crazy and responsible for killing a computer expert on the Skynet defense project...and Summer Glau plays the 'good terminator' there to protect them.
I thought it was excellent! I am wondering if Summer Glau is going to be able to play a character so much like River without constant comparison. And I've already started the countdown to when the first Terminator/Stargate Atlantis crossovers are going to appear. John=John, terminator=replicator.
There had better be one. That's just destiny. Though Supernatural/Sarah Connor would also rock--musesfool is like John Winchester/Sarah Connoer and it's just--wow. Yes.
(...although, to be fair, as soon as it's ahemable I'll probably be able to pick it up on DVD on the street. But that's still going to be months away!)
I did wonder when I saw the date at the beginning how they were going to do that. I have to admit, that was pretty neat. And yes, deeply, deeply convoluted.
...plus, seriously, living the sixties and having to be focused on engineering?????
Inventive, and definitely picked up. I was curious to see how they would adapt it to a tv show. Not disappointed at all. *grins and flails*
The score, the atmosphere and yes, Summer Glau kicks as muchly. I LIKE her! I like they idea that they had to send someone back with background in retrotech(for them) in order to hide a time machine, particularly since you can't bring anything with you at all in order to get anywhen with it. Acid trip? yeah, but FUN.
Can't wait to see what's next XD *flails with you a bit more*
I saw the pilot last summer and was blown away - it was just as good the *ahem* fourth or fifth time through. I can't wait for tonight to see where they go from here!
If you don't send me feedback, I will sob uncontrollably for hours on end, until finally, in a fit of depression, I slash my wrists and bleed out on the bathroom floor. My death will be on your heads. Murderers . -- Unknown, on feedback BTS List
That's why he goes bad, you know -- all the good people hit him on the head or try to shoot him and constantly mistrust him, while there's this vast cohort of minions saying, We wouldn't hurt you, Lex, and we'll give you power and greatness and oh so much sex... Wow. That was scary. Lex is like Jesus in the desert. -- pricklyelf, on why Lex goes bad LJ
Obi-Wan has a sort of desperate, pathetic patience in this movie. You can just see it in his eyes: "My padawan is a psychopath, and no one will believe me; I'm barely keeping him under control and expect to wake up any night now to find him standing over my bed with a knife!" -- Teague, reviewing "Star Wars: Attack of the Clones" LJ
Beth: god, why do i have so many beads? Jenn: Because you are an addict. Jenn: There are twelve step programs for this. Beth: i dunno they'd work, might have to go straight for the electroshock. Jenn: I'm not sure that helps with bead addiction. Beth: i was thinking more to demagnitize my credit card. -- hwmitzy and seperis, on bead addiction AIM, 12/24/2003
I could rape a goat and it will DIE PRETTIER than they write. -- anonymous, on terrible writing AIM, 2/17/2004
In medical billing there is a diagnosis code for someone who commits suicide by sea anenemoe. -- silverkyst, on wtf AIM, 3/25/2004
Anonymous: sorry. i just wanted to tell you how much i liked you. i'd like to take this to a higher level if you're willing Eleveninches: By higher level I hope you mean email. -- eleveninches and anonymous, on things that are disturbing LJ, 4/2/2004
silverkyst: I need to not be taking molecular genetics. silverkyst: though, as a sidenote, I did learn how to eviscerate a fruit fly larvae by pulling it's mouth out by it's mouthparts today. silverkyst: I'm just nowhere near competent in the subject material to be taking it. Jenn: I'd like to thank you for that image. -- silverkyst and seperis, on more wtf AIM, 1/25/2005
You know, if obi-wan had just disciplined the boy *properly* we wouldn't be having these problems. Can't you just see yoda? "Take him in hand, you must. The true Force, you must show him." -- Issaro, on spanking Anakin in his formative years LJ, 3/15/2005
Aside from the fact that one person should never go near another with a penis, a bottle of body wash, and a hopeful expression... -- Summerfling, on shower sex LJ, 7/22/2005
It's weird, after you get used to the affection you get from a rabbit, it's like any other BDSM relationship. Only without the sex and hot chicks in leather corsets wielding floggers. You'll grow to like it. -- revelininsanity, on my relationship with my rabbit LJ, 2/7/2006
Smudged upon the near horizon, lapine shadows in the mist. Like a doomsday vision from Watership Down, the bunny intervention approaches. -- cpt_untouchable, on my addition of The Fourth Bunny LJ, 4/13/2006
Rule 3. Chemistry is kind of like bondage. Some people like it, some people like reading about or watching other people doing it, and a large number of people's reaction to actually doing the serious stuff is to recoil in horror. -- deadlychameleon, on class LJ, 9/1/2007
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Fan Fiction is John Cusack standing outside your house with a boombox. -- JRDSkinner, on fanfiction Twitter
I will unashamedly and unapologetically celebrate the joy and the warmth and the creativity of a community of people sharing something positive and beautiful and connective and if you don’t like it you are most welcome to very fuck off. -- Michael Sheen, on Good Omens fanfic Twitter, 6/19/2019
Adding for Mastodon. -- Jenn, traceback Fosstodon, 11/6/2022
