In trying to figure out when Arnold Schwarzenneger last made a good movie (1993 by my count...actually, that's when he'd stopped making them...maybe 1992 then...I'd go check, but I'm too bloody lazy.) I found out that a new Terminator movie is supposed to come out this year. Jeff and I were discussing it and I said "Well, it might be good, it might suck." I don't really like the first movie, but the second is among my favorites.

Then I read the synopsis.
~~~
John Connor is now 18, and a female terminator, called T-X or Terminatrix, is after him . Another T-800 is sent back through time to protect John once again on the verge of the rise of the machines.

And while there is a possibility that it may be better than T2, my first thought was "Terminatrix? Oh yeah, that's gonna suck."

Oh, it isn't the idea of a female terminator that makes me think T3 will suck. (Though, it will make downloads faster.) It's specifically the term Termanatrix. I'm pretty sure that if it didn't sound like domanatrix the writers or whomever came up with the idea would have just called her Terminator # or T-#.

If she has *any* weapon that's whip-like, I'm gonna hafta put my stompy boots on and go visit the creators of the film. *grin*
