Tap your Inner Bad Ass

Your Bunni Friend may appear sweet and mild mannered, (which I usually am). But, you might be surprised to know I LOVE action flicks.

Nothing gets my rapt attention more than hunky guys kicking some butt! So, I could not wait to see the new Terminator 4 Movie, Terminator Salvation (Warner Bros).

Warner Bros just released the 4th and final trailer for the movie. Wow, it’s a very detailed trailer, with a full 4 minutes of footage from this explosive movie. It’s got to be one of the longest official movie trailers to date.

I'm sure you're all familiar with the story lines of the Terminator Movies. The latest, by director McG, is the best one yet! It opens in 2018, and our hero, John Connor (Christian Bale) is leading the resistance against the killer cyborgs of Skynet. He must save humanity, and also find the teen version of his father, and save him....or he'll never be born and humanity will expire.

Along the way, another kick-ass hero shows up. He's Sexy Sam Worthington, who breaks out as a big-screen action star. The buff & hunky Aussie, who plays the mysterious Marcus Wright, damn near stole the movie. The twists and turns along the way when this guy is raging around fending off cyborgs will leave you wondering what's next on the Armageddon agenda up until to the very end. Even then, his agenda isn't fully clear - you can leave that to your imagination.

This flick is def. WAY better than the campy 2003 T-3, which was too funny....and not rough enough for my tastes. Well, not here. T-4 isn't a run of the mill B-Movie with silly comic relief. T Salvation is an all - out, ramped up, kick-ass, take no prisoners, post-apocalyptic nuked out war. The sets are realistic and gets you to thinking that this is how the world will really look if we don't rein in the current nuts running our country. The end of days are closer than you think, my friends. If you wanna see how the world is gonna end up soon, thanks to Barry O and his minions, this is a good primer.

This is one tough movie, chock full of pulse pounding excitement and great action sequences, explosions, chases, and homages to the other Terminator flicks. It was a great 2 hours of escapism that let me tap my inner Bunni Bad Ass and get out all my aggressions vicariously.

I know you probably read and saw the video's about Christian Bale's melt-down when on the set making this. Some TD guy walked across the set to adjust the lights or something, and Bale went off like one of the explosions in post-war LA! He went kind of ape shit, with lots of swearing and really reamed the guy out.....and Bale caught lots of bad press for it.

But, I say, give the guy a break. He was in Character, after all, and he was concentrating. If he was playing a saint or something, it might have been uncalled for. But he was playing John Connor, trying to save humanity. So, lighten up all you people who picked on him. For all we know it could have been a publicity stunt to garner buzz for the flick months before the opening. Whatever the case for the curse-outs, I think it was funny actually. It gave us hours of comedic relief on You-Tube.

The best of these viral video's was made by this dude, RevoLucian. I think he has a MySpace page that I will add when I ever get on there to update my Page. He named it Bale Out - RevoLucian's Christian Bale Remix! You've gotta watch this, it's hilarious, catchy, and you can dance to it!

So, my friends, at some point, you must get yourself to the theatre and see this flick. Hell, I might see it again in a few weeks. I enjoyed it much more than the new Star Trek I saw a few weeks ago, and I enjoyed that! Now I just need to go see Wolverine! It's $5.00 at the Kerasotes Place that I go to for great seating and killer sound.

If you want to read a really good review of Terminator Salvation and read comments from the actors, check this out. It's a great piece from Redeye that gives a review from LA times.

The actors, Bale, Worthington, Common, and Moon Bloodgood, the quasi love interest of The Mystery Man Worthington, talk about their craft and other projects in the works!

Enjoy and keep your guns holstered!
