Ah, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, the least loved film of the series. Just viewing the poster is sure to make many grimace with a reluctant acceptance. Many a fan complained of several things about the movie, but the role of John Connor ranks the highest of grudges. Played poorly by Nick Stahl, I couldn't help but think to myself did Nick even bother to watch the previous flick? The original John Connor was fiesty, angst filled and rebellious. He wore leather and rode around on a motorbike blasting Guns n' Roses from his boombox. A total badass.
This new John Connor is nervous, clumsy, high strung and rejects his role as the leader of the human race, cowering from the steely glances of The Terminator. What's more is the enormous car chase scene that shamelessly competes with it's predecessor to the point where it's a blatantly ridiculous and obscene show of money.
Film Count: 78 out of 365
