Why Terminator Salvation Blew





1. Bale was fighting the wrong enemy.

Christian Bale thrives at fighting: demented clown characters (Joker), pussy psychologist criminals (Scarecrow), and yuppie douchebags (Paul Allen, Luis Carruthers, random prostitutes). Not Robots. Why? Because robots don't understand how fucked they are when they face Bale. The incapacitating fear that someone experiences when Bale puts on Huey Lewis or the Batsuit is incomprehensible to a shitty robot. And Bale certainly couldn't fuck roboprostitutes to Sussidio. At least not comfortably.
2. McG directed this pile of garbage.

McG's resume is Charlie's Angels 1 and 2 and numerous music videos. Why were those successful? Hot chicks and concise content. Salvation had a semi-hot pregnant chick (contradiction I know) and a computer version of Helena Bonham Carter. You be the judge.

3. Kyle Reese was reduced to a kid who let puberty punch him in the nuts.

In the original, Kyle Reese was such a badass that John Connor let him go back in time to fuck his mom to have him. I wouldn't want this version of Kyle Reese go back in time to pick my mom up from work. My recommendation: cast Jake Busey. Busey would use his superior strength and acting capability to own Skynet. The only reason they didn't cast Busey was because he'd prevent any sequels.
4. What the fuck is Common doing? And where did he get those glasses out of nowhere?
