just saw t3. don't know what the complaints are about. sure, it was a gun-packed action-fest with a little philosophy on the side, but that's what 1 and 2 where. and the T-X might not have looked as dangerous as the T-101, but they don't have as much practice making women look dangerous. all in all, good action flick.

The main problem as I see it is that T2 broke new ground. The T-1000 was cool, deadly and the effects looked really, really good and smooth (remember the T-1000 being crystallized and smashed only to reform? remember it melding with the chequered floor? remember the cool moves it made in combat by changing its shape?). T3 looks like a throwback by comparison, with bad acting, cheap-looking effects and the much-touted TX was simply unconvincing and weak-seeming.
