Both Titanic and Avatar, while not the freshest ideas for the time are still well made and entertaining productions. Personally I find them both boring as f**k but a lot of people love them. However when I think back to the first two terminator films I can't but help say that they were perfect. I was 6 and 12 when T1 and T2 hit the theaters. T1 didn't really hit my radar for a long time. However the one thing I remember about T2 is how everyone was f**king satisfied by it. You left the theater, or drive-in as the case was for me, feeling like that was the best 6 bucks ever spent. Then much later, in the 2000's I decided to watch Terminator 1, at which point I thought to myself, holy shit this is from 1984.
Killer machine(cyborg) that looks human sent via time travel by an evil AI. I could go on and on but it's a thrill ride. None of that "throwminator" shit either. The film feels real. Which is also part of the reason Aliens is so fulfilling as well.
I can't help but say, "To compose something so majestic, one could die happy" and I mean everyone who had a part in making the film. That's great work.
Alien: Covenant is by far better than Titanic and Avatar. Titanic didn't have anything new to add and Avatar story line is the "same old song". Worse of all it's so hard to get movies such as covenant. You know, those over zealous grandiose themes with monsters in them.
