Originally Posted By WorldDisney Sorry, I have to say I agree with the others on this.

But I think with it now shifting to the future, it is a little more exciting. That said, I can understand why people are a little sick of it and naturally people are pessimistic its only to make more money off a proven franchise. Welcome to Hollywood . But as long as they are done RIGHT and brings a interesting mix to it all, I'm cool. In fact, I liked everything thats been done so far. I even liked T3 which apparently many didnt. And yes, the show is great too, but I only seen first season and the beginning of season two so far.
Originally Posted By dshyates I really didn't like T3. I loathe the Sarah Connor Chronicles. But this pre-sequal looks interesting and high quality enough. Is it a prequel or a sequal? John Conner is an adult so its after the prior 3 films, but all this action took place before the first 3. Consussing, huh.

And while I don't know the rest of the situation, from what I heard on the tape, I don't blame him for going off on the guy. /cs
Originally Posted By mele Well, considering the director didn't seem to notice any problems, you have to wonder if what the guy did was really that bad. I also think that actors take their craft way too seriously. If no one's life is at stake, his reaction was over the top. I work for someone who makes me feel like crap everyday...that's not how you treat people no matter how much you feel they provoked you.
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb The man was doing his job, maybe not paying close enough attention, stepped into the shot. Yes he ruined the take, I get that. But he's a human being and doesn't deserve to be treated to 4 minutes of being cursed at by some premadona actor for it. Make your point and move on. No need to go off on someone like that.

Originally Posted By dshyates "Not to defend Bale or anything but isn't the Director of Photography usually behind the camera?" Yes, so OBVIOUSLY they weren't rolling, and he didn't ruin the shot.

I could see if he was trying to see how to frame the shot, but it doesn't make that much sense for him to be walking around, and even if a light needed to be adjusted (which is what he said he was adjusting), I would think that one of the lighting people would be able to do that for him. On a low budget picture, maybe they do all that themselves but for a Terminator film, they'd have a full crew. It's also evident from the clip that this wasn't the first time he'd done that when Bale was working on a scene. /cs
