The Terminator is fantastic and I honestly think it's Cameron's best film. The sheer mood it creates is amazing and the puppet work is superb.
It created an amazing sense of threat, hinting at a future war that was never properly realised in the later movies. Terminator Resistance gave me that.
Cat's broken. Sitting weird.
No, they announced the end of the license about September last year. I just don't think it had many books produced for it.
I'm still deciding whether to put myself through V The Series, as well. I've not watched it properly since the 80s.
I didn't know about that - I've not recieved it yet! I'll let you know.
You can read the original notes of my The Terminator RPG pitch here - I did detail a lot more but as it wasn't picked up I never finished it, but here's the basic premise. I was really pleased with the idea (it was an old idea of mine for a TV show).

I now have complete RPG collections for ALIEN (well, duh), Dragon Warriors and Against the Darkmaster.
The awesome news is that I just managed to get the 'The Terminator RPG: Resist' book at a great price and that completes my Terminator RPG collection!
I pitched for that game but I think it was already the end for it, which was a shame because it was a cool game and Nightfall did a great job.
OUT NOW!
DEEP SPACE ADVENTURE #16 - PRIMARY TARGET
PART TWO OF 'THE DAEDALUS GAMBIT'
MISSION: Approach the industrial unit, eliminate rival gangs, eliminate Data Courier. Data Courier is the primary target.

Today's charity shop find - Brad Fiedel's soundtrack for Terminator 2 Judgement Day. I used to have this on cassette until it got eaten.
It's a fantastic OST for a great sequel. The first movie is my favourite but this one is filled with iconic moments and it was regularly in my video player.
Yeah, this is awesome and captures the mood of a campaign setting I'm working on right now. Paul's work is the fucking bomb.
The Scots have all the answers.
Two awesome projects of awesomeness I can't wait to see.
Power move - I've been meaning to revisit it for a while and being half cut was the best way!
Hangovers. It's been a while. Time for an Irn Bru and a Mars bar, then a fry up.
It's an incredible piece of television and being drunk is the only way I can watch it
I think this is the only way I can cope with it
I'm drunk why the fuck am I watching Threads
Iron Maiden is honest about history, that's what gives them their rock
Im ending it here, the vodka isn't helping
The use of Godzilla in the number of the beast video is the greatest creative decision since socks
I'm proper drunk so I guess it's Iron Maiden until bedtime sorry neighbours your deaf anyway

To try and wind down I've been out and had a drink, I've had a great time and I'm a bit drunk, so yay me I'm proper relaxed but we lost the pub quiz but it was for charity so fuck it, you know? Great time, I'm glad I went

I don't usually write posts where I'm down about stuff but sometimes I've just gotta say how I feel, especially when it's stuff I'm passionate about.
I managed to get to the end, but I honestly have no recollection of the last three episodes. Absolute wasted opportunity.
It didn't do it much, but they did it enough to sour the ending of the original movie for me.
It's frustrating because they did some cool worldbuilding and had some sweet locations beyond the movie, all ruined because they wanted to be 'relevant'.
I get that - there was something in there that could have worked but I couldn't grasp it. I even liked the new characters but they fell into the continuous 'witty conversation' bracket that annoys me with a lot of writing these days.
I hate the conceit on some shows that give beloved older shows a new life only to downplay, wreck or make pointless the strife and stories the original heroes endured either to create a plot with a modicum of impetus by leeching off the original, or to make the newer characters look good.
