I saw Terminator : Salvation on opening night with a few friends and I thought it was actually pretty good...actually really good than I thought it gets. It was definitely much better than Terminator 3.
Christian Bale as John Connor was awesome, but he did not really steal the show. The other actor who is new to the Terminator universe did and he was totally awesome all the way.
So, we didn't really NEED Arnold Schwarzenegger to be back in the 4th movie as long as it is still about the war set in the future with Terminators vs. John Connor and his army.
The whole film was very well done and I loved every bit of it thou there are actually some pretty surprising scenes but I rather not spoil it.
The director of the movie said he promises to bring the classic actors such as Robert Patrick to the Terminator Salvation sequel...as well as HOPEFULLY Linda Hamilton as Sarah Connor could make her appearance.
Of course...even our good ol' main Terminator could make his return to the sequel as well...of course he DID say "I'll be back." Didn't he? let's see about that then.
