Terminator: Salvation (update)

First of all a word from James Cameron via the National Post:

"It could be a big steaming pile or it could be brilliant. Sam Worthington is in the Avatar and the new Terminator and he likes the script, but I never saw it. There was no blessing involved."

So McG is a liar about the fact that he is consulting Jim Cameron about Terminator Salvation. He seems to be just as miffed as you and I about T4. So the matter is yet again open to the fact if T4 will be a 'steaming pile'

In other news Cinema Blend. Has some interesting shots of T4. It seems that McG is breaking the mould of setting most of the future scenes in a daytime setting. Is this is a brave attempt to make this film stick out from the others like Resident Evil 4 and 5? Or an attempt to trick us into thinking the said previous attempt?!

You may also notice that they are physically doing some of the effects, which means there might me an idication of going back to filming the movie on more physical terms. Now I know that it's impossible to do a Terminator movie without some sort of extra help, wether it's stop-go animation, back projection/chroma key, or CGI, but T1 and 2 always used as much physical effects as possible to make it seem as real as possible. Could it be that McG and his 'army of Terminator fans/film crew' have decided to be faithfull to Cameron's style of filming and storyline?! I know that James Cameron's version of the T-600 has already been changed, but we'll soon see. So far I'm just as confused as James Cameron on this one, although T4 will most likely suck monkey balls.

Anyway here they are:
