Absolutely not, in my opinion. It's got sweraing in it, and some pretty disgusting scenes for a 9 year old. People cutting themselves open, hands bursting through chest cavities, children being killed etc.

I would say 9 is a little too young.

Thanks, that does sound like too much.

My son and I are going to see the movie tonight. It's every citizen's duty to inform themselves about major political figures!

I liked the previews, but have been waiting for it to hit the cheepy theater my self. Too many stinkers this year...though POC is still in the main runs here.... tell me, is 60 times too much to see 1 movie in 1 month?


Seriously, the biggest question is though, how much longer can Arnold milk the franchise?

He's getting older and the aura of power is just fading, ya know?

Terminator 2 negated Terminator 1 so that neither really happened, how do they justify a 3?

They always leave loop-holes for sequels in almost every movie. If you remember in 2, one handed T (arnold) dramatically lowers himself into molten metal, supposedly destroying all the evidence, right? But if you remember, he lost his forearm in the gears of the factory machinery when he was fighting the liquid terminator guy (hence the "one hand") How was skytech able to make the terminator in the 1st place? with the remains of 1 arm from the 1st movie!

I don't know if you followed all that, but what I am saying is there is always a hole. Maybe that arm was destroyed later, or maybe it was found. I know that wasn't the premise of 3, but it was still left open, anyhow. They always leave a hole open, even if it doesn't appear so.

Now, for fun...what "hole(s)" did they leave open for another Alien movie, in ALIEN III w/ Sigornie Weaver?

Can you guess...cause I can!

We saw it. It was much more action and much less thought-provoking material but it was OK.

It would have been too much for my 9 y.o. so I do appreciate the advice.
