[QUOTE="Eltab, post: 7234312, member: 6803337"] Tangent) The Oscars need to re-write their admission rules so that showing in two theaters (L.A. / NYC) on the last weekend before the yearly deadline does NOT make your movie qualified for any awards. There should be a minimum number of tickets sold or something. Unless they want to create categories for "Movies with High Technical Ability but No Marketing Whatsoever". Real) The presumed T3 replacement movie (T2.5?) could work like this: An older Terminator appears to teenage John Connor and 'Survivalist' Sarah Connor, not long after the end of T2. He tells the Connors that there has been a constant series of ownership changes around the future time machine. He explains a little of the 'chess game' going on between Older John and Skynet / backup copies.
