I just love it! It's been in my top 5 since the day I saw it. It's a shame it gets overshadowed by the "action-filled, adrenaline-fueled", but ultimately silly Judgement Day. It wasn't until Mann's Collateral that I got to experience The Terminator's true sequel.

Also, Jett, did you ever get a chance to check out my new website? http://slamdunkstudios.webs...

Hi Duncan, think there's a misunderstanding here - i don't think i dismissed THE TERMINATOR = i think it's one of the most important and vital films of the 80's.

I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the original Terminator as B-grade action/horror, Jett. You beloved Andrei Tarkovsky praised it -- "its vision of the future and the relation between man and its destiny is pushing the frontier of cinema as an art." However, I certainly agree with you that the more money Cameron made, the less creative and daring he became.

Value for money on TFT

No - I don't want my money back. Considering I've listened to all 60 odd shows you've done for free so far I'd consider that very good value for money!

And don't be discouraged, I was just thinking perhaps you should prepare a little more for the + shows.

You keep mentioning the credit situation and getting me worried - is there a real possibility you won't be able to carry on with TFT? Heaven forbid!

Give me my dollar back

TFT+ Not saying I want my $1 back guys, but..focus! Might I suggest that you use the TFT+ shows to do some retrospective film reviews, something you've dicsussed doing in the past?

Still enjoyed your ramblings though.

Oh and what's the news with the AI commentary?
