I just thought I'd talk about a significant thematic failing, as opposed to plot points.

My big complaint with the movie was the climactic showdown in the heart of Skynet HQ. You're in a freakin' Terminator factory and there's only one Terminator ready to kill you? And that one is a naked Schwartzenegger? (though I have to admit, I loved the digital cameo) And for the record, my bladder didn't make it.
