EDIT: Whereas the 1000, per Ninja Snarl P just below, was still fairly unexpressive but could at least manage the "nice bike" line, and that scolding finger wag at Sarah.
T1 has a scene that shows the programming popup wth conversation repsonse options; fuck you asshole, etc.
Jai Courtney was great by all accounts in Suicide Squad.
Margot Robbie was great because she's Margot Robbie. Nothing else in that movie was good enough to counter the massive suck of everything around it.
I guess he was probably fine?
Viola Davis as Waller and Will Smith as Deadshot were both inspired casting. I also enjoyed Batfleck and Waller's interaction in the post-credits, but we'll never see *that* chemistry again.
Terminator Salvation remains the most disappointing of the bunch only because minus Sam Worthington it has a really decent cast shackled to a script written five minutes before McG shot it.

I think the part of the movie I've seen (never watched the whole thing) that I enjoyed the most was everything after they finally beat the bad guys and they're making demands to Waller about what they should get for saving the world, and the immediate results once they're back in custody. I remember a couple of DCAU episodes ending in the same way when a villain helps the heroes in some way.
Harley, angry: "Can we at least get a 'thank you'!?"
T3 was just T2's plot thinly skinned over more explosions. Which was the point, they wanted to make money, you make money by rehashing things that already worked. At least Genisys got weird with it.
Genisys getting weird with it was the least of its problems - I think its execution was what let it down. I liked a lot of its ideas and could see how a better movie was trying to break out of it.
Honestly I think it would have been a lot better simply if Jai Courtney and Jason Clarke weren't so horribly miscast in it.
I'm not sure I've ever seen something Jai Courtney wasn't miscast in, honestly.

One complaint: at the end, when the Terminator is all smashed up and bloodied, he says “I need a vacation.” I thought maybe I missed something where somebody else said that phrase and the Terminator learned it from them. But then I looked it up and it turns out it was an ad-libbed reference to fucking KINDERGARTEN COP. Come on fellas, it makes no sense for the robot to make up his own jokes. Show some discipline.
Maybe the Terminator just figured that out himself since he was able to learn (explicitly in the DC) and, in John's famous words, "not be such a dork all the time".

I think the movies neatly handwave this stuff by saying the Terminator has detailed files on humans. One assumes that includes a lame joke book or two. They are infiltration units after all.

T-800 is all chilling in a sewer tunnel, pretending to be a resistance fighter. One of the real resistance guys says, "Man, I need a vaction." T-800 looks at him, says, "No you do not. You will not accrue significant paid time off until Q3 of ne--" then all the resistance guys light him up with plasma rifles.

For the theatrical release, it's out of place. For the Director's Cut with the absolutely vital restored scene of the T800 taking a minute to explain his learning mode is disabled by default (because even Skynet can't control the machines if they become sentient enough) and then they turn on the learning mode; all the "humanizing" stuff after that is expressly to show he's adapting.
With that scene in place, I don't think it's at all weird for the T800 to make that lame joke. He's bonding with John and expressing that he'll live but he's also trashed pretty badly. It's just an extension of the difference between the original T800 hotwiring a car by ripping apart the steering column and the T2 version doing the "human" thing of checking the sun visor for keys.
That sunvisor thing though, like seriously who does that? Was that a thing in california? I have never heard of people keeping spare keys in their sun visor.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

I've never once encountered it in real life and I'm not sure how you'd even make it happen - I've never seen a sunvisor that could reasonably hold an entire keyring in place without falling open, the keys falling out, or there being obviously a keyring there. But I think it's one of those movie things that's been used in film so many times that it's now just a thing in the odd, parallel reality where you can shoot a lock of a door or light a fire with a pistol in which all movies and TV shows take place.

When I lived down in Florida, it was entirely common to put your keys up on top of your tires if the wheelwell covered them or tuck them up in a bumper when you went to the beach. Who is going to go out to the beach looking for cars to steal?

Going back to this, just being curious, was this an internet only skit? Something about a black man shooting an overly racist white man in the head, even on Comedy Central, seems like it would cause some kind of stir-up or controversy. Even if the dark comedy on this is really choice.

Well, first you'd have to have a car to get out to the beach, which means either having an accomplice or leaving your car at the beach. Plus, you're going out to he beach to steal the beach car of a bunch of surfers and beach bums. Congrats, you just swiped a fifteen-year-old pickup truck half-eaten by salt spray and with sand in every nook and cranny.
I lived there for years and never heard of anybody ever having a car stolen because they left their keys in some spot like that.

The spoilers coming out about Terminator 6 are just lol, what a waste fam. Just basically a rehash watered down paste of the first two films.
If John Connor dies and is just replaced by new girl as resistance savior, what makes her any more special since it seems there's always going to be another one to take the role, therefore it doesn't really matter who Skynet/Legion sends back and protecting them? Time Travel I don't careadoxes!

You're not exactly pulling from 7 billion folks anymore, sooner or later the job doesn't get done.
Also my guess is they wanted a character that they could reuse in the future without having to recast because Edward Furlong is a train wreck.
The only thing I really liked about Terminator 3 was that the machines had a less asinine agenda and went after Connors network and jump started Judgement Day as well.
Although it would have been a hell of a gut punch that if you found out about John's lieutenants getting iced at the end as he's calling out to them over the radio and as he's met with silence you get a lone voice saying "all targets have been eliminated".
Because sending back just one murder robot is dumb.

It is a method of security, even if it isn't especially well thought out or secure, and any layer of obfuscation prevents some theft.

He was a terrible bogan, he didn't use the c-word once! A legit portrayal should've been at least 50% of his dialogue by volume.
