Terminator Salvation Clip: Harvester 7-Eleven Attack

Looks more like “Transformers” than “Terminator” was my initial reaction upon seeing the giant Terminator Harvester robot via some concept drawings. The film’s trailer has since been released, and I still don’t dig the look of the Harvester. I don’t get why Skynet needs such a huge friggin robot. Seems very cumbersome and not all that good for going around crushing humanity. But hey, you can’t deny that watching Marcus (the robot guy who doesn’t know he’s a robot played by Sam Worthington) and Kyle Reese (played by young Anton Yelchin, recently of “Star Trek”) fight the Harvester isn’t cool, cause, you know, it is. Here’s a long Harvester clip from the movie, including some behind-the-scenes stuff about the making of said scene.

After Skynet has destroyed much of humanity in a nuclear holocaust, a group of survivors led by John Connor struggles to keep the machines from finishing the job.

Starring Christian Bale, Sam Worthington, Anton Yelchin, Moon Bloodgood, Bryce Dallas Howard, Common, Jane Alexander, Helena Bonham Carter, and Jadagrace. Directed by McG.

The machines rise May 21.
