Did you play the audience, or did you play yourself?

First of all, forgive my forgetfulness. When I was not completely immersed in movies, I followed my parents to watch the first few Terminator movies "innocently". Although I may not be able to watch the next time, my brain memory is still there. It's not enough to build a proper timeline to explain the relationships of the various characters in this TS, in fact they are quite complicated. . . Many characters who seem to have historical origins or hide some information have been clicked, and the plainness has added a lot of branches to the story. I always thought that JJ Abrams had a different brain than others, but he opened up another space and thinking The way to synthesize his weird ideas, the sudden twists and turns, will make the audience unable to stop, let him direct at will (is it too early to praise him? After all, it is only an episode of Star Trek, let’s see how he ends me first It's not too late to comment on Lost, the most complicated American drama in the history of superficial viewing. After all...there is at least a conclusion for 24 episodes: 24 episodes will give you an answer). McG may be anti-JJ Abrams, he has done enough , I know what the audience likes to watch and what the blockbuster should have, but the consequence of thinking too much is that this TS is simply a synthesis of the East, the North, the South, the ancients, the Chinese and the foreign, the strange and the scientific dialectics. . . Garbage (I don’t want to use these two words. I remember that before watching Star Trek, my friend was always worried that she would not understand, and vowed to solve the first 10, at least the movie version, so as to build a perfect belongs to the worldview of Star Trek. It turns out that J. J Abrams handled it properly, making it a little harder to watch, and making the review box office double). As for TS, after watching it, my mind was muddled, and I was ready to re-integrate the first few Terminator films when I had time. If possible, I would like to "appreciate" even Sarah Connor's long-running TV series. Having been engaged in TV dramas for so many years may have confused McG's mind. The movie must not use all the TV dramas, one clue after another, and "little tricks" one after another. Really play the audience like a monkey? First of all, no malice, casting Christian Bale as John Connor was an unconvincing decision, and with Sam Worthington in it like a fool, it was pure "blindness" to me, in fact the film's Most people are. . . As the latest generation of robots, he does nothing and spends most of his time in confusion, remember, this film is not called "who am I" or "what am I." Secondly, the little girl Star, I always thought she was a big gimmick, because she seems to be able to predict the arrival of Terminator, and there are always some key actions at critical moments. I thought she was a movie version created by McG, similar to Castiel's "angel", and The white-haired old lady looks super shocking. Several black guys listened to her and gave food as they said, and finally there was a scene when John Connor went to Skynet to save people, and she seemed to stop there and look at JC , I thought she'd say something astonishing like "John Connor, I'm your mom", but she's been completely missing since then. . . The position of women in this film is really self-evident and humble. I would say that it is better not to have women, but even if it is a vase, it still needs to be displayed. Helena ranked third in the subtitles because of her reputation. I was looking forward to her performance, but she appeared for 10 minutes at most in the 118-minute movie. I was also stunned to understand whether she transformed Marcus or she later put it on. M was sold to the military for research, so where is she herself? Because in the end it looks like she's been transformed too. . . JC's wife doesn't seem to have a very complete name, and she rushed to the front line with a big belly. If there was a sentence like "My amniotic fluid broke" at that time, everyone would be more happy. There is also a woman, Blair, who appeared as Showing off her slender legs, it's still that weird makeup look! ? Anyway, when she appeared, the only thing I could think of was to turn my head and say to my friend: see? there
It may be due to the schedule, some things appear in front of my eyes during my burnout period and cause my complaints to intensify. For example, when Terminator was caught by a trap made by Kyle and hanged upside down in the air, it reminded me of I am Legend; A certain model of Terminator reminds me of Megatron (Is it called this name... I checked it, it is Megatron in English), and the motor terminator he released reminded me of science fiction films such as Star Wars in advance. Later, John Connor remodeled, hey! Isn't that The Dark Knight! ! Even the people in the car are the same! ! ! Trust me, this is by no means a compliment. . . Not to mention the clothing design, the red armband plus the military coat, I think the former Soviet Union has been liberated for many years, and the Cold War is over, why can't you let it go? The scene design is even more impressive. I don't want to talk about Platoon or Apocalypse Now, which is the far-off camera of bombing the forest. Isn't that a comparison with Tropic Thunder? Also, I don’t know if it was after 9/11 that the Motion Picture Association of America issued a series of notices of “no attack on targets”, and everyone’s eyes suddenly shifted from the high-rise buildings to the poor bridge, which might have blown up the hospital creatively. , shocked the bank, but recently, even with cartoons, it has to compete with this bridge.
In the end, the length of the film made my friend unable to hold back, turned his head and said, "The music is good" (you can imagine her desperate mood at that time), when I proudly replied "Danny Elfman is sure. ~" As soon as the voice fell, a miracle appeared! I remember that The Dark Knight was dealt with quietly by me repeatedly complimenting "absolute". Since then, everyone has been addicted to it. Once applauded, twice began to see the situation, and three times was flooded. Unfortunately, this third The heavy responsibility fell on TS. . . The second time I saw it (heard it?) in Star Trek, it just set off the cosmic vacuum state, good use! What's the matter with you, Danny? Is it also necessary to fall into the clichés to be reconciled? Who was the person who decisively used Travis's All I want to do is rock when the big red guy was knocked out of the windowsill and fell to the ground back then (last year at all)? (In fact, the movie didn't even sing a word in the song, so the cry at the beginning was amazing enough)
Take your time. . . How many movies did I mention earlier?
War movies can refer to Band of Brothers (because there is a shootout in it that really reminds me of the Battle of Bastogne)
Platoon & Apocalypse Now & Tropic Thunder (It looks like the forest is bombed)
I am Legend
Star Trek
The Dark Knight
Hell BoyII
Monster vs Aliens (Bridge Appears)
In short, it can't fulfill its long-cherished wish to match all the previous movies in the cinema or the audience who have no money and no spare time now definitely have a reason and a lot of opportunities to see a combination of all but only 118 minutes The - Terminator Salvation 2018
