terminator

Quick summary of my day out.

Yesterday I went out for once, and actually stayed out for half the day without any terrible anxiety. Since I'm rather tired right now (I struggled at writing a RPoL post all through the night... sigh) I'll just summarize quickly for now.

We bought the PS3 Genesis game collection. Jon wanted it 'cause he's a dork. :D It's the best collection I've seen of Genesis (and some Master System) games yet. Has all the Phantasy Stars, Shining Force 1 and 2, all the Streets of Rage games, Sonic games (of course), etc.

I also preordered Sims 3, which is coming out June 2nd. SO CLOSE! I can hardly wait!

Then we went to see Terminator Salvation. Which I actually enjoyed. I've heard it wasn't so popular, but I stopped paying attention to what others think a long time ago. The movie suited my tastes. I liked the look into the war with the machines, the Terminator and vehicle designs, and particularly the character of Marcus. There were also a couple moments where I was totally thinking "+3 stunt!" heh!

We did some walking, then settled down at a restaurant that's open late at night and had a nice meal. All in all a good day... but now I should stop depriving myself of sleep and try this RPoL post later. :P

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

Terminator 2 was one of my favorite movies since I was a kid. Same with Jon, really.

We recently got a hold of a DVD of the first series of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, which follows T2 and actually (conveniently and thankfully) skips over the entirety of T3 with time travel! Ha!

Anyway, we really, really like the series so far. It's more in line with Terminator 1 and 2 than T3 ever was and really breathes new life into the franchise, IMO.

I've read that people think the actress playing Sarah Connor isn't built enough. :P Well, she isn't, but I still think in terms of attitude the woman's got it right. Even more awesome is Cameron, the new Terminator protecting John Connor. I never saw Firefly/Serenity but Cameron's actress is the one playing River Tam. I was amazed that she's actually 27, she TOTALLY does not look it. *boggles!!*

Anyway I just had to add that tidbit before bed, because I'd meant to write about it earlier. Here's hoping we can see the second season soon. :P
