Why does this have to be on Mondays? I probably won't watch it if I TiVo it (and I need to wean myself off of TiVo'ed shows to save room!), but I need to see me some Summer Glau on a regular basis.

Oh hey, new board.

So that bit of misdirection at the end actually worked.  Usually I can see that kind of thing coming from a mile away.

You know, I thought I would also. And I thought that was going to be the case with season 2, but by the end of the first episode I was all "fuck yeah!"

Nice.  I'll watch this tonight internet-willing.

I watched the last episode from last season.  And really, the moment the show went from "this is decent, I'm enjoying it" to "omg this is awesome" was the scene with johnny cash playing and the pool.

zomg.

Yea, that song is just fantastic for a montage scene where truly evil shit is happening. I was kinda shocked it was used twice in a year though (Terminator and Generation Kill). It was used well both times though.

What misdirection?
But then again, that's not exactly a misdirection, so I'm probably changing the subject.

They touched on that as part of the plot in T2 anyway didn't they? I always kind of assumed it would head that way.

It's going to be hard watching the "evil corporation" boardroom scenes without having I think I'm Paranoid playing in my head.

It's too bad we don't have those spoiler boxes I've seen on some other sites.

Anyway, using the old-fashioned text-color spoilers:

It's probably just me but I thought Shirley Manson would just be some ruthless corporate shark trying to develop what ends up being Skynet.  I thought that agent dude who sort of looked like Colin Hay bringing her the Chessmaster 3000 computer was just part of that.  Her being a T-1000 surprised me.

Of course, what surprised me even more was the amount of time she must have wasted setting up her urinal eavesdropping/murder trap.

Over and out.

spoiler question:

spoiler answer:

Arnie = T-800
Robert Patrick = T-1000
Crappy blonde actress from 3rd movie no one liked or cares about = T-X
Vick and Cromartie are both apparently T-888s
I don't think Cameron has been given a designation yet.

Over and out.

I thought they were going to make Cameron a T-920, that is until the dog barked at her in season 1 :( :( :(

Is it really a spoiler to discuss this stuff?

Ah well: Spoiler: Ahnold's model is all messed-up actually.  They didn't standardize his model number very well for continuity. Wiki Info about spoiler, don't mouse over cuz I can't black this.

Personally I think it should just be understood that there are spoilers in these topics and if one hasn't watched the latest episode, they shouldn't view the topic.

That doesn't work super well for those of us reading the thread trying to figure out whether or not the show merits a look.  On the other hand, years of intardweb usage have trained me into going all glaze-eyed and mind-numb the instant I start reading a spoilerish sentence, so carry on.

I think Ookii is adding a spoiler thing.

That said, anything with the title Terminator that stars Summer Glau is worth a look, right? RIGHT.

She also played Guinevere in the Hallmark "Merlin" miniseries.

Yeah I totally forgot about the corporate chick's surprise at the end. I think it's because I blocked her out, thinking "Holy crap what a lame character, OMG EVIL CORPORATION blah blah blah." Then, yeah, at the end of the episode my exact words were "Okay I like her now."

It's too exhausting converting all of your spoilers into the tag without seeing the spoiler itself.  I'll just have to watch the first episode and then do it!  awesome, for real

This was actually pretty boring, sorry. I don't have time for it anyways. Think it'll be True Blood and Cali all year for me.

Also, Summer Glau with a ripped up face during the whole episode is no way to kick off a season.  Oh ho ho ho. Reallllly?
