New Terminator 3 Trailer Released

Posted by timothy on from the shiny-bad-things dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Sony has just released a fantastic Terminator 3 trailer on the Apple trailer site. After several ho hum WB trailers I was feeling like this movie was going to be a re-tread, but the Sony trailer really raised my blood temperature. Also I checked out the official Terminator 3 website. Although it's flash only (major sin), it is full of good stuff. The time travel forum could use a bit of filling out."

    Here's a direct link to the large version:

    T3-international-tlr_m480.mov

    You can do this yourself for the other trailers by viewing the pagesource and putting the letter 'm' before the resolution number.

      As an afterthought, if anyone wants to see the decompiled version of the reference file (to see what it checks for and what it does) I've put a decompiled version here.

      Basically, it checks for old versions of QuickTime (anything before 5.0.2) and redirects them to a page telling them that they need to upgrade. Versions 5.02 and later are allowed through to the movie.

      And yet it still doesn't work.
      You need to stick an 'm' before the '480'.

    A certain Anonymous Coward already pointed out that you just have to view the HTML source and then prefix the letter 'm' before the resolution in the filename. (Or you can pay for the Pro version, which lets you Save As...)

    Actually, if you take the time to surf to the imdb page for this film (repeated so many times in above posts that I'll refrain from adding the link here), it says in the trivia that Edward Furlong was considered, but dropped due to his continuing drug problem. They didn't state whether this problem was not having any or having too much of it.

    Flash works in Linux, but this quicktime 6 sorenson codec doesn't. Not only that, but they wanna stream it for extra assholicness.

    This Sorenson codec most definately works with my MPlayer installation. Look into the downloads page on the MPlayer site for additional codecs (QT, Real, WMV, etc) and the MPlayer documentation on how to get them to work.

    For fsck's sake, did you even bother to follow the basic plot of the movie? Ah-nuld's character is a cyborg, made by the robots in 2029. He is identical (except for his orders) to the bad guy in the original Terminator film. The robots in 2029 presumably have a factory where they churn out Arnies by the dozen.

    By the way, isn't Arnie getting a little bit old to be playing an invulnerable robot?

    In addition to the aforementioned "m" trick, you can also find a copy of the movie in "/tmp/501/Temporary Items" if you are running OS X. It only stores it there while the Quicktime plugin is still loaded though, so be sure to load the video in your browser, then you can copy the file from that directory. Also, you must use Terminal to get to that directory, as Finder hides "/tmp" from view.

    The filename will be QTPluginTemp[random numbers], with no extension. Just "mv filename ~/t3.mov" or "cp filename ~/t3.mov" to get it into your home directory.

    Here are the saving instruction for Windows XP and IE6.
    I downloaded the high resolution trailer, so it's about 14 MB

    Here is the direct link, hopefully it hasn't expired yet.
    http://a772.g.akamai.net/5/772/51/a518c4ff1125bc/1 a1a1aaa2198c627970773d80669d84574a8d80d3cb12453c02 589f25382f668c9329e0375e8178ef01f93c6f55ecc40a5178 5e65ac332a0016d/T3-international-tlr_m480.mov


    If you clicked on the given link above and downloaded the trailer directly, then you can skip Step 1. Go directly to Step 3.
    1. View the HTML source, search for the name "T3-internation-tlr_480.mov"
    1a. Change this to "T3-internation-tlr_m480.mov"

    2. You should now have the http address:
    http://a772.g.akamai.net/5/772/51/a518c4ff1125bc/1 a1a1aaa2198c627970773d80669d84574a8d80d3cb12453c02 589f25382f668c9329e0375e8178ef01f93c6f55ecc40a5178 5e65ac332a0016d/T3-international-tlr_m480.mov

    Open it up in a web browser, and let it your browser download the trailer.

    3. Open up a command prompt.
    4. Go to the location:
    "C:\Documents and Settings\[USERNAME]\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\"

    5. Do a "dir" search with the /a /s switches enabled. Like:
    dir /a /s *.mov

    6. Hopefully this will come up with something. For my system, I downloaded the high resolution trailer. So my search came up with:
    "T3-international-tlr_m480[1].mov"

    7. Copy this to another location on your hard drive.
    copy "T3-international-tlr_m480[1].mov" C:\Temp
    8. Simple as that right?
