I have a PS2 Terminator game 'Dawn of Fate'. It is probably the worse Terminator game there is, lol, but I really enjoyed it. It is set in the post Judgment Day Earth, and I am Kyle Reese fighting in the war, taking strategic addvantage points by force, stopping some of Skynet's mission, ect. Just basically a war game molded after Terminator, untill the end, you get to play Reese on the day he is sent back into 1984. You have to infiltrate Skynet's headquarters to go back using the same device the T-800 was sent back in.
My point is the whole game takes place in the future, and despite it beinga not so good game, it's alot of fun just for that, the fact that you get to see more of the wars between men and Skynet! So it will be really cool to see on film.

Except it would technically finish off the series by ending the war between man and machine one way or the other.

They should make a fourth movie. I waas getting aa little anxious to dee the machines and the humans waging a full scale war. It would be cool if they were going though deserted shopping malls in search for food and water and also ambushes and attacks. Personally I thinkl that T4 would make a great addition to the Terminator series.
Also turning points would be good, so that some times the men would have the upper hand and sometimes the machines would.

Terminator 4 is all systems go, but will Arnold Schwarzenegger be back, or is it hasta la vista, baby? Schwarzenegger is kind of busy these days, you know, running the state of California, but Variety reports that he may still return in a cameo. Sources tell Variety that the screenplay (by Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines screenwriters John Brancato and Michael Ferris) will feature a new model cyborg as its antihero. T3 producers Andy Vajna and Mario Kassar and financier Intermedia expect to rehire T3 director Jonathan Mostow to shoot the fourth movie next year. It's not clear if T3 stars Nick Stahl and Claire Danes will return, but maybe producers can build robot stars to replace them. Interesting. We are going to have a TERMINATOR Quadrilogy, just like we now have an ALIEN Quadrilogy. I wonder what is going to happen in TERMINATOR 4. I cannot wait to find out.

In T4 you will found out the Earth shown in the movie is copy of Earth - a War World in which machines and people are fighting eachother - just for sport and people are watching the great game from an orbitting space station called SkyNet. People can make changes in the game. Everyone alters the reality but scenario of the game is changed based on the number of votes. New kind of Terminators emerge, people fight them use other Terminators. It is also easy to go forward and backward in time.

Personally, if you all want to know my honest opinion, I think it should have all ended back when TERMINATOR 2 ended. I mean, not only did John and Sarah Conner survive, but they also prevented Judgment Day. What was the purpose of reviving the prospect of Judgment Day again (which was what TERMINATOR 3 did)? Maybe I just liked the positive message that the end of T2 conveyed, I don't know. Now, we have to relive the nightmare with T3 and the upcoming T4 . It would be interesting to really see the Dark Future of Planet Earth - as it is portrayed by the War Against the Machines though. I just thought that all of that was prevented when the T-1000, the Skynet brainchip and the endoskeleton arm were destroyed and melted down in T2 . Oh well, I just hope that Humanity wins in the end and learns from its mistakes. I would hate to see John Conner get killed - like the way the T-850 said in T3 . Even though I do not think that Nick Stahl played John Conner very well, I still do not want to see our hero go out like that. That implies that the War Against the Machines will never truly be over, then.

Even though I do not think that Nick Stahl played John Conner very well, I still do not want to see our hero go out like that. That implies that the War Against the Machines will never truly be over, then. But see, thinking along the lines of temporal mechanics, it is in fact impossible for them to stop judgment day. If they prevented judgment day from happening in T2, then the events of the Terminators could have never taken place as it would have caused an impossible paradox. If you go back and kill your grandfather, how can you of been born, and how could you have killed him if you were not born? Skynet was the first to create their AI which lead to judgment day. The events of T1 altered the future events a bit, by sending back the T-800 part of that technology was left in the past, which would now become property of Cyberdine, so now Cyberdine creates the Skynet AI, but in T2 everything was destroyed, so Cyberdine is out of the picture for future events and Skynet is back, but the future events are still altered, thus it takes Skynet longer to develop AI and start Judgement Day. Thinking along the lines of that, the Terminators could have never come back in time had Skynet become self aware and launch Judgment Day, it doesn't matter when Judgment Day happens, now or 200 years from now, it has to of happened to send back Terminators or it would be an impossible paradox, not to mention a serious plot hole. Therefore I'm glad they went ahead with a 3rd one, although we all know it was for money and not to make the story legit, lol. But I'm a little different. I love dark movies and especially love dark endings where the bad guys win. I loved seeing this judgment day that I've known of since I was 5 or 6 finally take place before my eyes. I'm glad John could not prevent the war, and am glad the movie ended on that note. Now, we all love the the plot of Terminators existing in our present pre-judgment day world, but they have done that 3 times already. Since they are making a 4th, I'm glad they are going in a new direction, and not copying the previous three movies. I just hope my opinion is popular opinion and T4 does not bomb out of the box office. I do believe T4 will start out at the begining of the war against the machines, the war we see clips of in all three Terminator films. I hear they are going to make a T5, and T5 will be the last. I also hear John Conner will be played by a different, older actor in T4, not Nick Stahl.

John Connor will also have to send his "father" back in the future so that he can be born in the past.

More Terminator 4 news. Apparently the release date has been pushed back to 2009, but they have also committed to at least 3 more Terminator movies. No Arnold this time around, but that was pretty much a given. At the most I only expected a cameo by the Governor. I was also reading that a smaller production company bought the rights to Terminator. I think this is a good thing. I feel they will put some hard work into these Terminator movies to try and make themselves legit competitors in Hollywood! www.comcast.net/entertainment/index.jsp?fn=2007/05/10/232205.html

I'm really looking forward to the forth film and the others that will follow. It will be interesting to see the war between the machines and the humans.
Which Terminator film shows the Terminators fighting the humans in 2029? I would like to see something like that in the new films.

We see the scenes of 2029 or around that time period in all of the films, just flashes here and there throughout all 3 movies. As far as I know, the new films will focus on the post apocalyptic Earth and on the war of man and the machines, with John Conner rising up to lead the humans.
