For the first time in forever, I'm on a sort-of vacation. I used the opportunity to watch this......film....first.
What an absolute steaming pile of shit.
That was not Kyle Reese. Kyle Reese is a lanky, stoic badass. Not a musclebound, Whedonian quipster.
I cannot even imagine a female-lead more pretentious than Daenerys Targaryen. Seriously, I wanted to Falcon Punch her throughout the entire film.
And somehow, they managed to turn the relationship spawned by the culturally prevalent Connor-Reese archetype--and the paradoxical prophecy which it entails--into a misogynist micro-aggression (see also: "you have no right to turn me into a baby-factory!"). I have to wonder if that's why they turned John Connor into the de-facto villain: his very existence represents some kind of oppressive anti-choice for women everywhere--or so Daenerys claims.
The guy who played John Connor was terribly cast. I couldn't get over how ridiculous his chin looked.
And I'm not even gonna bother touching down on all the time-travel plot holes. They might as well have lifted scenes straight from Time Chasers.
All of this shit just to undo Terminator 3's reinforcement of an established timeline for the sake of appeasing whining piss-babies like Dave.
