I just thought the entire film was hoeky bigtime. It looked like they were going for Kill Bill meets Neo from the Matrix. I mean come on everyones dressed like Neo with the long trench coats and slick back hair. The plot was so lifted from 1984. It was horrible. But everyones has there own flavor. :-) Steven that’s cool. I just thought the entire film was hoeky bigtime. It looked like they were going for Kill Bill meets Neo from the Matrix.

I get your points, especially about tagging onto the Matrix, that did seem to hinder it (pity it hadn't come after the sequels!) However I do get what you're saying - Bale is playing an iconic figure this year, and then going to be playing the leader of the humans, the first to portray John Connor as the great figure we hear about from Reece. If he acts in any way like Bruce - tough and grim while preparing to face the foe - it will be tough. I also agree with Daniel and other comments about McG. Anytime something good about this movie comes up, I remember who in charge and lose the will to get excited. Sorry, 790, but I really liked Equilibrium too.

George Orwells, 1984 meets Logans Run, trys to be the Matrix. Btw that was off the top of my head. I'm surprised I was that close.... Glad you liked Equalibrium.

In this world emotion,art and most other things that bring forth emotion have been outlawed. Bale doesn't kill the guy to prove his innocents at that point they already know he isn't innocent. Bale brings forth the revolution. He wasn't framed at all he framed the other guy. Actually that is probably the most inaccurate synopsis I have ever seen.

What cult adopted Equalibrium as a classic? I don't even see it reviewed on Screen Rant. At least not in the bottom three catagories. Equalibrium (spell check), marketed as the successor to the Matrix Trilogy. Also one of Bales first sci_fi films. If I remember correctly, Bale played a high ranking cop in a futuristic uber-controlled state run society. He was framed for something against the state, they end up using his wife against him and at the end he kills Taylor Diggs in front of his boss to prove he's innocent , or is he? Where's the message? We shouldn't head into the NWO, yeah I agree. Daniel I prob said sucked a few too many times earlyer but I remember seeing this on dvd and it was B-movie grade maybe.... But that's just my diggs. :-) Daniel your cracking me up!!!

It has a lot of great reviews and generally gets rated pretty well on movie sites. The performances and the story were excellent. Maybe you just don't like complex stories or you were not smart enough to figure out the message. Actually Equilibrium is a cult classic and most people find it to be a great movie.

That movie sucked sucked and sucked again. Using that in your comment made me laugh. (Please anyone else like Equalibrium?). I remember the cover art on the dvd says "better than the Matrix". Hahahaaaaaa. What a joke. I wouldn't go off like this if I hadn't seen that film. I have and it was horrible. And like I said (its his prob more than mine). When I saw "3:10 to Yuma", I realised that Bale could play any role, I'm just saying that TDK is going to be so galvanising that Bale, like Robert Downey Jr is going to become Batman in the eyes of a majority of fans. And personally I'm seeing toooooo much of Bale lately. Having him as John Connor is weak and desperate. (IMO) And that's all it is. Just my dumb opinion. Nothin personal. I will say that eveytime I see Downey Jr now I'm thinking Tony Stark. I guess I'm bad for doing that..... Equalibrium. Man I can't get over that one. Lol. Equalibrium, you’ve got to be kidding me.

There also going to need a good script. Seeing how we will be picking this apart on the Rant. I'm sure the Sarrah Connor Cronicles had something to do with this rating change as well.

I disagree with your list altogether. McG = Bad Christian Bale = Good No Arnold Schwarzenegger = Awesome Paul Haggis scripting = Good PG-13 rating = Doesn't matter Only thing negative going for this movie at the moment is MCG. Also to the guy who said that Christian Bale will always be Batman. You are the reason so many great actors get screwed over when they play a big role. Christian is a huge talent who can play anything open your eyes a little bit. I strongly suggest you go back and watch American Psycho and Equalibrium.

The new TV show seems to be doing a pretty good job of filling in some of the backstory which could have feasably took place between T2 and T3. Fact remains though that Terminater as a movie franchise is much better with Cameran at the helm, and well a terminator minus arnie well am not that sure to be honest.

Also (IMO) todays PG-13 was last decades R rating. So....that might not be a factor in the gore/violence catagory. The title alone leads me to believe that if "that" was approved then the script more than likely sucks. (Why? because that's a pretty lame/retarded title). Does anyone on Earth disagree???? Throwing Christian Bale into this dosnt blow me away ether. (Too me he's Bruce Wayne not John Connor) I think after TDK this year, its going to be hard to see him as any other character. (His prob more than mine). I seem to remember Micheal Keaton backing away from more Batman because he didn't want to be typecast. One thing I realised watching Iron Man this weekend. If you don't have a tight script all the explosions and lasers are meaningless. I'm a huge Terminator fan but this looks like a over marketed, over researched pile of smeg..... In a way, I hope this bombs..its not the direction I want to see so screw um... Go sell you action figures on Mars for all I care. I can put up with the liberties the tv show is taking but I'm not going to hold back if they screw up the films... So far it looks like their screwing it up.
