Watched T4 again tonight. If I've ever called it crap I was mistaken. I don't think I ever did, I think the worst I said was that its OKish. But anyway, on tonights viewing I think its reasonably good, an enjoyable watch and listen.
Its easier to make points of the things I don't like, everything else I think was very good especially the first half hour or so.
So here goes the not so good:
-How does Skynet know about Kyle Reese?
-If he's on their 'hitlist' why don't they just kill him as soon as they find him?
-Why does Skynet enable Marcus Wright to have the ability to choose sides and thus turn against it? It makes no sense.
-Wouldn't it have been a better idea to have Marcus actually kill John Connor as soon as he found him? Why does a machine intelligence think it a better idea to lure Connor back to a central hub of Skynets operations where a heck of a lot of things could and did go wrong?
-John Connor, believing that Marcus is a Terminator sent to kill him, for some reason decides to give Marcus key information about his parentage. Not very sensible.
-Why doesn't Marcus react in the least bit surprised when Connor mentions that Kyle Reese, the teenager, is somehow his dad?
-Why does that child keep handing people the exact thing they need at exactly the right time?
-a heart transplant performed in an unsealed tent in what looks like desert
-They made the T-800 a little too invincible, unless it now has enhancements previous incarnations didn't.
-Why didn't the T-800 stab Connor or punch through his chest to begin with? I know I know, a poor climactic battle that would make, but unfortunately the throwing him around strategy and dramatic pauses makes no sense for a machine. Imagine if the T-1000 had managed to catch young John Connor and instead of stabbing him in the head he pushes him around and kicks him in the stomach a few times. Couldn't they have found some way to have Connor avoid the T-800's clutches until the very last?
But apart from all that I enjoyed this viewing. Great action sequences, I love the T-600s - the way they look and sound - Bale was fine as Connor, cool outfit too. The opening sequence with those continuous shots was amazing. I liked that they went with Arnie's 1984 haircut on the T-800 reminding of the original bad guy T-800. I like Marcus despite the stuff mentioned above and his was a cool outfit too. Most of all I like that there was no stupid, self-parodying humour making a mockery of these films. That $h!t didn't belong outside of something like the MTV movie awards.
Yeah, his tradmark roar. 
He did it in Clash of the Titans, too! ^_^
