Maybe it was just the drive-in atmosphere, cause sitting in a car with fresh air and the ability to talk as loud as I want would make any movie better.
It as funny, we bought along bunches of chips, microwave popcorn, candy, soft drinks, chocolate etc to the value of about $8AUD per head (same stuff at cinema prices would exceed $15, easy) and just ate through most of the film...got pretty filled up there.
My stuff was near the stereo, so I accidentally fucked with the volume and went to different radio stations sometimes.
One thing I've never thought of, see, I never go, but I saw some people reversing their cars to watch from their back seats? Is that better?
I had to tell my friend who doesn't appreciate concepts like this that just because he was in his own car, I don't want him talking on the phone during the film...ech...
And seriously, I smelled SO much weed being burnt up in there...I was huddled down in the back seat hitting my vaporizer thinking about how slick I was being and there must've been people everywhere just burning joints.

Also, I didn;t really like any terminator movie until this one, nor did I pay a lot of attention to the first 3 cause I'm just not that into action movies.
You should check out the series then...yes it's action but IMO a lot better'n #3 (not hard) and follows on from #2 quite nicely, delves into a lot of not-terminator stuff too.
If you're not into action that much maybe give the first one another chance at some point, in my opinion it's more a scifi/thriller than anything else.

nton Yelchin is quickly becoming a favourite actor, and his American accent only cracked once
That's funny, having seen him in Alpha Dog first I had no idea he was actually russian...so the Chekov accent was much more for-real than I'd assumed. Kid does a great job hiding it...and yeah, I find him to be a pretty cool young talent.
I noticed that the Aussie guy (Marcus) slipped into an almost fully Aussie accent with the "I don't give a shit about you" line. He kept it pretty solid though, I actually liked his character more than any in the film, though I couldn't help but to think they'd just orchestrated yet another "good terminator" situation just because...
