TERMINATOR salvation

A The 600s as articulated by [Kyle Reese] in the first picture were easy to identify because of their prosthetic rubber skin. The problem is, the T800 becomes so human and realistic that you can't really identify him, save a barking dog here or there. This film is about the advent of the T800, and they're coming on line a little earlier, and naturally, that's a problem for [John Connor] and everything he's built. The T6oos carry a lot of firepower, but they're slower and easier to knock down. This film introduces all the machinery that led to the birth of the T800. We have Harvesters, Transporters, Hydrobots, Terminators, Hunter-Killers, T1s - so you see machines that were suggested and introduced by James Cameron, but then we also introduce a new machine language that was around in 2or8 because we know the T800, the [Arnold Schwarzenegger] model, came in 2029.We show the R&D that got him there. Just like any automobile or the computer that you're working on, I would imagine it's got a colored screen where screens used to be monochromatic. It probably has several gigs of memory where it used to be just megabytes. It has a video card when those used to be slow and cumbersome. We're seeing the advances we'd see in any technology from a car to a washing machine. A I think so because we live in a time of artificial intelligence that you and I take for granted. Look, I'm a fan of the great heyday of science fiction, the late '70s and '80s. Alien, Blade Runner, Terminator - those pictures from that time were fantastic. But in 2009, we've deconstructed the human genetic code. We can clone a sheep, we can give you an artificial hip if you have a bad one, an artificial heart. If you're depressed, no one wants to talk about your mom and your dad; they want to give you serotonin reuptake inhibitors to make you feel better. And there's a BlackBerry in my pocket that if I misspell a word, it will go back and fix it on my behalf. So artificial intelligence and technical advancement, the likes of which we could never imagine, is here. A Yes it is, indeed. I'm most comfortable in this genre. I'm proud of the [Charlie]'s Angels movies, and We Are Marshall - that was a very personal movie about overcoming sadness, and that was something I was going through at the time. I have a fear of flying, and I had to face my demons with that. We Are Marshall was very cathartic in that respect. But these are the action movies that I call upon, and this is the genre - intelligent scienc
