1 - That has been the subtitle of the site since its earliest days and if you don&#039;t get the ironic sarcasm, then I don&#039;t know what else to say.

2 - If I am talking crap about a movie they love and they take it personal, I don&#039;t know what to say about that either.  I am not going to suddenly love everything just so I don&#039;t offend someone.  If I give a review, I am going to give a review.  It&#039;s just opinion.]]></description>

You know, Rodney and John are some cool guys, really. And people should probably stop giving them shit for liking or disliking something you feel differently about. But, there are two things that sound so hypocritical it’s unbearable.
1.) The Official Home of Correct Movie Opinions. There are no such thing as “correct” opinions. It’s a contradiction and if you’ve got such a problem with people saying you’re review sucks then that’s their opinion so stop acting like children and just forget about it.
2.) You CONSTANTLY criticize EVERYONE who disagrees. Example “Well, if you think bad acting, horrible action and under story development is your idea of a good movie…” Fuck off man. That’s belittling and you guys are just as bad sometimes. But, I would like to say that to be as honest as possible, these are only words, and with only words comes tone def so you should start making videos of your comments or something so people won’t feel so bad when it sounds like your trying to talk crap about what they feel is a great movie.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I saw the movie last friday. I thought it was pretty good. I give it a rating of 7.5 or 8 out of 10. I remember the first two and they were really good. they were a great build up to the next two. I like arnold in the first one better because that what you think of as a terminator, a mechine that is relentless in getting its objective done. In the second one i that arnold was not as good, why would a machine care about people. Robert Patick the terminator for T2 was a complete joke, walking through bars and transforming into anything it touches beside things with chemicals was a complete mockery of T1. In T3 I thought it was a great build up to T4 where Judgement day finally happens and the TX goes around elimiating conner&#039;s generals. now for T4, I liked it alot it reminded me a little of T1 where machine killed humans at all costs. The opening seen was great and when they find out about skynet replicating human tissue for the new T-800 model 101 was a great addition to show you how arnold was made. I think everyone is trying to compare this movie to T2 where everyone loved the terminator. this was an action film showing what its like after judgement day. I can&#039;t wait to see what the next 2 films and see what they add to the series. Bale i though was a good JC i mean you also have to remember they have been fight for sometime and any soldier no matter how tough they are eventually breaks down and wonder if they can win. The terminators in T4 are awesome!!!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Ok, that other post i wrote, completely in &quot;Post screening mode&quot; The action was fantastic. The visuals were fantastic. The story/character development? Not so much with the exception of Marcus and Kyle. Hey I thought Worthington did great but not as great as some people said. I wanted to love it, but in the end it was meh. Disappointed here, Btw Rodney I disagree IMO Bale did a great job, but as Connor, i completely see what you&#039;re saying. I think people are being too critical, because it&#039;s supposed to be a fun summer action popcorn flick, nothing more. but as a film i had been looking forward to for 11 months to a year, din&#039;t live up to my expectations, which I didn&#039;t even walk in with any because of the word of mouth. I walked out with mixed feelings and it actually took me 5 days to form an actual opinion on it. Btw was i the only one who was disappointed by how they wrapped things up with Sky Net, not the explosion, but just who that wrapped up? Ugh, but I found the VERY end scene to be great, but other than that, it was alright.

I was discussing this movie with anyone who saw it and though not all agreed with me (some gave it worse) I still stand by my assessment.  

Someone else&#039;s feelings on the movie wont change that I like it. 

John rants hardcore about Blade Runner, but that doesnt stop me from liking it.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A pretty agreeable review in my opinion. It was  a movie that tried to be a terminator flick in my opinion. It had the visuals and the expected stuff: robots, death, and despair. The problem was that this overshadowed the subtext of humanity, which the first two were able to portray just great (and out of all honesty, I really can&#039;t remember the third too well, so I won&#039;t bother with that). There were moments that the movie just felt was too over the top, yet the movie took itself too seriously (did anyone else not laugh at Worthington coming out as a screaming mud soaked Uruk Hai from Lord of the Rings).

In terms of acting, it seemed that Anton Yelchin was the only consistently good person in the movie. Bale was just as emotionless as the machines, while Worthington was somewhat sporadic, ranging from good to somewhat below par. As for the other characters, the rest of them were just there; there was no development and no reason for them to be there. They were all 2D characters thrown in to make things drag on for the protagonists (and it didn&#039;t do much for them).

I&#039;m not going to dwelve into some of the other problems regarding story, but I will say it was formulaic, lacked any tension whatsoever, and had a very predictable twist near the end regarding humanity&#039;s &quot;means for ending the war.&quot;

Entertaining? Yes. But as a movie that tried to be seriously good, it just failed.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Just saw it myself.  I to liked it a lot.  I even thought Bale&#039;s portrayal of Connor was really good.  He portrayed a person that has been at war for years and is showing the worse for ware because of it.  I didn&#039;t find him flat, he seemed tired which I think is quite fitting for the setting.  His wife that served no purpose I also disagree with.  T3, though I did not like the movie, left no question that he would have a wife.  His wife in this was just that reminder that his has grown up and the wife came to be as told in T3.  It would have been kinda odd if she was not in it.  A war like this I would be keeping her at my side where ever we would end up held up at as well.  Every day being a fight for survival, you better enjoy your loved ones any chance you can as you never know what might happen that make a separation permanent.  That was plenty of reason for her to be in it for me.  

Anyway, enough about Connor and the wife.  I thought McG created an amazing world in this Terminator, a very raw and gritty setting just the way I like it.  Also saw quite a bit of depth in the story, and though many seem to think there was no story, there definitely was.  Introducing how John and Kyle meet, the human/Skynet big plan to take each other out, Marcus&#039;s story, all of this was part of the story and then some.  It was not a masterpiece, but I liked it just as much as T1 or T2.  I think people went in expecting a Saving Private Ryan war movie involving Terminators, which it was not.  For a Terminator movie, I loved every second of it.

Really hope it does well enough so that McG can get started right away with the next.  Can&#039;t wait where the final script takes the story.  If I can&#039;t have any more T:SCC, I hope to at least get another Terminator better sooner than later!]]></description>
