Johhny is an interesting case. He worked for years and years in more quirky and prestige roles before he hit it gigantic. It seems like its usually the opposite. Your bigger when your younger, but then your box office appeal declines as you get older.

But he didn't move to Hollywood to become an actor...

Whew. I thought I was the only one.



It was gritty, and I love seeing the old T models.

Does any movie these days get green lighted to production unless it has a chance to make a BILLION $'s?

Of course, Dude!

There are tons of smaller films going into production each day. It's just that those films don't have the budget for press and probably wouldn't be interesting to people that don't seek out smaller films.

Man I loved the show on Fox. Was very disappointed when it got cancelled.

I don't know I'd say many if not most of the roles I've seen him in have been fairly classic 'Depp' style roles, it's just that some hit bigger at the box office than others. He's been nominated for a number of oscars I can't believe that at some point he won't win one.

I think that's been part of the key to his success and somewhat early failures, I believe he's picked roles that he loved. With the talent he has, if he loves the role eventually he's going to get the award. I remember when I first heard about the remake of Willy Wonka I was disappointed until I heard that Depp was going to be Wonka. He's one of the very few actors who could capture that same quirkiness that Gene Wilder projected in that role.

One remake that could be absolutely hilarious with him if there's the right team would be Depp in a Young Frankenstein remake. Done well it would be a riot. The question is if it would make enough money to be green lit(and if brooks and wilder would do a modern remake).

Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles was fantastic.

**** Fox.

I ****ing hated it they shat on Cameron's time travel rules which ruined it for me. Summer Glau couldn't mimic voices like the T-800, and she was supposedly a more advanced model.

I still think T2 is one of the best action flicks ever.

T3 was pretty meh, whatevskis. Worth a watch but I haven't seen it in about 6 years and don't have any desire to.

I actually went back and watched The Terminator after I had seen 2 and 3 and thought it was pretty good despite its age.

The latest Terminator with Bale and Worthington was pretty good as well. The action scenes were fantastic, it was cool to finally see the post-apocalyptic world Sarah Connor was warning us about, and, of course, the Arnie nod was pretty cool too.

.... I'll watch this one.

I've forgotten though, what was Skynet's ultimate goal? Just to destroy all humans?

I only remember it "became self-aware" and just started launching nukes everywhere.

"Humans are innately destructive and it's in our nature to destroy ourselves" T-800

So they want to beat us to the punch?

Yes, because we are danger to ourselves, and thus in the machines mind it's better to end the suffering.
