Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles **DVD MOVIE** Sept. 22, 2009 (Thread)

Update:

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronciles has joined many a beloved genre property in the halls of TV Sci-Fi Valhalla, but could it return in some other form? According to TheTVAddict.com and ex-John Connor Thomas Dekker, the show might return as a direct-to-DVD movie following up to the show’s cliffhanger finale.

Granted, rumors of alternate-medium resurrections for canceled genre shows are like human skulls after Judgment Day – you can’t take a step without tripping over one. Then again, it’s not entirely unprecedented, what with the BSG folks filling the waiting time before Caprica with the upcoming direct-to-DVD Battlestar Galactica: The Plan. And I have it on good authority that both Buffy and Angel are living out fulfilling lives in two-dimensions on the comic-book page. But for every post-TV success story there’s a rumored Carnivale comic book some of us have been waiting on for years.

What do you think? Does Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles deserve a second chance on DVD? Or, after the series and this year’s Terminator Salvation, does the franchise need a nice, long hibernation? Either way, if Dekker’s wishful thinking proves reliable, I’m betting there are some die-hard Sarah Connor fans out there who absolutely will not stop – ever – until you buy it.

you answered my question before i was even able to post it

Yeah, I wasn't a Summer Glau fan when I first saw her in Firefly, but she's grown on me.

I thought she looked part asian - turns out she is half german and half scot.

So what's the gist of the series? We all know by Terminator 3, Sarah's dead. So is this just what happened between T2 and when she died?

It's the years in-between, when she's raising her teenaged son.

So at the most, it's gonna last 3-4 years right? I mean, Cameron planned it out that way if that's the case.

One year in real time doesn't mean it has to be one year in TV time.

So the first episode just aired. What did everyone think?

The effects were a little weak, but I'll check out at least a couple of episodes.

i thought it was ok ill probably check out a few more episodes but i dont think it will get me 'hooked' like lost/the shield/etc

it was okay....need more guns

what's the point, from T3 we knew judgement day was ineveitable, why couldn't it be set in the future with the human resistance and robots duelling it out.

watching it right now; not the same w/o Arnold.

didn't like it much, though the hot girl robot kept me from turning off the TV.
