I'd watch T3 again every time over Salvation, if only because the ending is such a lovely homage to Fallout, even if it's purely unintentional. It's certainly not as good as 1 or 2, but I don't understand at all why people so unapologetically dis it.
Salvation had worlds of potential to be a great movie that was ruined by a completely irrelevant John Connor, a plot that made no sense at all and a gross lack of follow through on the most interesting (and possibly best acted) character in the piece-Kyle Reese. To say nothing of the fact that the entire movie set us up to have John Connor's face transplanted onto Marcus Wright's body at the end in a delicious bit of irony but we were instead left with the heart transplant nonsense. McG clearly had no idea what to do with this movie other than to have things blow up. Too bad.
