All I've wanted to see since seeing the original movie is what happens after the bombs go off. How does John Conner go from reluctant hero, to being the saviour of mankind. I hope that is what T4 will be about. I think AT is right about Fox cancelling the show sooner than later. We'll just have to wait and see.

Too much time travel.
Not enough Summer Glau.

I agree with the previous post, and I hope T4 is about the war. I hated T3's "the internet made me do it" origin of Skynet... if for no more reason than the internet is not shielded against nukes, and of course networked computers are nothing special. I wasn't thrilled with T2's rewriting of "how many time travelers there were". I just loved T1's "a storm is coming" ending... making it in my mind the best of the movies.

That "internet made me do it" crap in T3 was so lame. Do you think the writers of that little tid bid put some thought into what happens to the internet when all the computers are nuked out of existence? Without power computer no work, no computers, no networks, no networks, no internet, no internet, no skynet. Duuuuuurrrrrrr

Well at least they didn't save Sara conners head and put her in a prison with a baby terminator in her belly that is never explained how it got there.

I could easily see a machine-internet intelligence thinking 'I live in the net, they live in real life - We've got no resource conflicts and the more computers they hook in, the more of me there is! Cool!'.

In fact, if a Internet-AI eventualy arises, it would do anything possible to improve the Internet, so we would plug more computers for it to use...

Like making flashy, resource intensive games to push manufacturing, mixed with low grade time wasting flash games to keep the new powerful computers online and mostly idle?

I call it two hot chicks and a guy the 90210 chronicles.

Rather lame. Mind you the only sci-fi type show i am watching is primevil. And I know i should not be watching that.

I've been watching 'Reaper' on the CW channel. I get a kick out of the humor in the show. You should watch it.
