Very very good!
John is much more mature, the silly jokes gone…this is a Terminator movie that can stand next to the earlier ones.
It’s so much darker, really a great job.

Thanks a lot!

The best thing I can say is that I am totally astonished at how much better UA managed to make this movie. Like a lot of people, I only remember T3 for how crappy it was. With this edit, UA has managed to make it WAAAAYYY closer to the quality of the first two. Of course, those 2 movies set an impossible bar for most to reach. So that is a big compliment, especially considering the original cut.

Technically it is perfectly done, and I loved the little touches like inserting of Aliens on the TV (Seamless, BTW. I didn’t even realize for awhile it wasn’t originally there). My only misgiving is we never hear the Terminator theme proper in the opening or closing. And yes, the virus thing might have been a tad clearer. However, UA scores points for replacing the strip club music with “Intimacy”. Very clever.

This is about as good as a fan edit gets.
