Terminator Salvation Rollercoaster

7 Jan 2009

Okay, any actual connection to Terminator Salvation is tenuous, but it looks like a good rollercoaster.

Terminator Salvation Trailer 2

11 Dec 2008

The new Terminator Salvation trailer is very cool. Lots more Mad Max style crossed with original Terminator blue future gloom. I hope the story lives up to expectations because the visuals look great. I like the idea that a different future arrives, plenty of scope for John Connor to show what he's made of.

Terminator in the Independent

21 Oct 2008

The Independent has an article on the Terminator franchise today, marking The Sarah Connor Chronicles return to UK TV on Virgin 1 this Thursday at 9pm:

At this stage, a guilty secret: I've been obsessed with Terminator for years, and can barely contain my excitement at its return to cinemas. In the meantime, like all fans, I've been making do with the remarkably good Sarah Connor Chronicles, which has achieved extraordinary success on both sides of the Atlantic.

The paper version had this cool picture from Terminator Salvation:

...but the online version goes with the classic Arnie image.

Meanwhile Virgin 1 has a micro-site, well okay, a few pages and you can watch the first episode online from today.

Most Wanted 22/09/08

22 Sep 2008

Things that Big Dumb Object wants the most this week:

Terminator Salvation now that The Sarah Connor Chronicles is back on air again it makes the promise of a new Terminator film all the more exciting. Watch the teaser trailer again, imagine how good it could be and roll-on May 2009.
Anathem by Neal Stephenson. Amazon say they've dispatched it. Hurrah!
Heroes. The cool BBC trailers have got me excited, hopefully it will live up to it's unfulfilled potential. It starts in the US tonight and in the UK, on BBC Two, on Wednesday 1st October at 9pm.

Terminator Salvation Trailer

17 Jul 2008

The trailer for Terminator Salvation goes all Cloverfield on us. Which is annoying because I just want to see what's happening.

From what I could glimpse between the static it looks more Mad Max than Terminator.

When I read things like:

McG's take is to weave science fiction and horror elements into a state-of-the-art action film: The camera always moves, the imagery is raw and kinetic, the pace is insane. The creative challenge for me will be to bury the effects into the photography but to still protect our big visual moments.

It doesn't give me hope. But then it's Christian Bale, and would he sign up for rubbish?
