Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that's an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I'll go first: I think "Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows" was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

Yeah, but that’s still pre-judgement day. TSCC was a wonderful show and I loved it, but I’ve had enough pre-judgement day terminator material.

I want to see the future war. Either early future war (2005-2020) or the closing days of the war 2028-2029).I want to see Humanity’s War with SkyNet. I want to see the violent struggle between Conner and the machines. I want to see the machines rearm, field new technology, and grow more powerful in the face of a desperate last stand human resistance that is barely struggling to stay alive. I want to see the machines themselves grow more and more desperate, genocidal, and destructive as Conner’s leadership grows from a thorn in SkyNet’s side to a threat that is posed to exterminate the machines, to ultimately a fighting force that puts Skynet in a desperate defense before being ultimately overrun and destroyed as Conner leads the final offensive against its brain in the Cheyenne Mountain NORAD base.

That’s what I want to see.

I don’t want to see Arnold or Sarah Conner for the 15th time running around trying to prevent Judgement Day and surviving against time traveling assassins.

Well the whole 3rd season of TSCC was supposed to be mainly post-JD. And while it's actually not personally my cup of tea, it's this show's creators who I would trust to give this theme justice (day). So of course the dipshit suits cancelled it.
