I'm going to take back the "Monstrosity" crack I made about T3 in the title. I didn't <i>hate</i> this movie and that is too harsh a judgement. But there were definently some bad elements that made me feel this way. Though, I must say T3 is a "must-see". I liked it but hated a lot of it. You'll have to decide for yourself. Don't get me wrong that was a pretty short movie to begin with.
And, as James Cameron said it best, who was asked, "Why didn’t you want to do Terminator 3?"
"Basically because I had told the story. To make Terminator 3 was to make a 3. Was to just do a film for the sake of the commerce. Quite honestly, with all the other above the line players, it wasn’t that attractive a deal. I’m being totally honest here. I could make a lot more money off of any other film that I made. Now, if I had a story that I felt passionate about telling, I wouldn’t have considered that. But I didn’t. I would have been doing it for the sake of doing the third Terminator. The only compelling reason for me to have done that film was a sense of pride of authorship. “Well, dammit, I did the first one and I did the second one and it’s my creation and I should do the third one.” But ultimately, that’s a stupid reason to spend a year, year and a half of your life in hell to make a big movie. I’d rather spend a year of my life in hell to make something new, which is what I will be doing."
