The Asylum's next masterpiece... "The Terminators"

When I saw this movie sitting on the shelf at the video store, I was surprised that Asylum could get away with that title.
It looks like Asylum has already been taken to court once. FVA: FOX vs. The Asylum... in court

What's worst about The Asylum is that with their small budgets you could still make quality movies that are character-driven and can appear at film festivals, instead of all these crappy ripoffs filmed in two weeks that can't afford the special effects they're trying for.
They love ripping off sequels and remakes since those are the easiest to also steal plot elements from instead of just having a similar title and cover art (they're all set with their Transformers and Land of the Lost coattail-riders), so I wonder if they've got a Sherlock Holmes movie lined up for the winter.

I don't think that they could be sued since the "robot vs humans" theme is as old as the genre of scifi (one could argue that Frankenstien was the first to use it) and is in public domain.
I've noticed that the ships in the trailer look alot like the Eagles in Space: 1999. Martin Landau is spinning in his....what? He's still alive? Oh cool. 
Pathetic...truely pathetic. This crap is totally unwatchable.
Really, especially as even Cameron got successfully sued by Harlan Ellison over Terminator. This is a rip-off once removed.
YOU WATCHED IT! YOU CANT UNWATCH IT!!
I've said this before, but I always wonder what the atmosphere must be like on the set of these films.
Surely everyone there from the actors, director, extras, lighting people all know this is dogshit that hardly anyone will watch or care about.
Actually it wouldn't suprise me if the director were this completely deluded fuckwit who thinks he's making some Oscar worthy masterpiece

Thay aired that the other night on SCI-FI!
I didn't watch of course,(WAS tempted) I have better things to do with my time.
The only way I could see them NOT getting sued for ''copyright'' is because everybody knows TERMINATORS (T-800) are KEWL! & THE TERMINATORS SUCKS!Well if anything, I got a new avatar so it's not a total loss
BtB THAT'S what they look like?
Your KIDDING!?!?!
Nope. The new ava is from the poster of the movie, the trailer has a pretty poor CGI model that's not that far off from the poster...well aside from being crappy CGIThe only way I could see them NOT getting sued for ''copyright'' is because everybody knows TERMINATORS (T-800) are KEWL! & THE TERMINATORS SUCKS!Well if anything, I got a new avatar so it's not a total loss

I STILL want to know how these idiot's havent been sued out the WAZOO yet!?
Something must have happened cause they had a "Star Trek" (2009) knock planned a year ago and now it's just *poof* gone. IRC, the poster even had a pretty recongnizble USS Kelvinish ship on it.
Of course love the fact they they have a religous film division, and are making movies like SEXPOT 3-DDD.
