Yeah, but there’s telegraphed and then there’s telegraphed. You know going into a Bond film that’s going to follow the same formula as all the others, but when it’s a well done film, you forget about that while you’re watching the film. I wasn’t able to forget the formula while watching T2, but I damn sure did while watching Casino Royale.
I remember when I went to Universal Studios, they had a Terminator 3D attraction. Part of the event was a short film showing the war between the humans and skynet. I thought that it was a great 20 minute film, and I wished there had been a full length movie of it. I hope this lives up to all those cool future scenes we have seen so far.
But then again, I’m a sucker for post-apocalyptic wastelands and hopeless causes, so what do I know?
