Meh I thought it looks alright. I'll go see it out of boredom.
Yeah, when I saw that girl do the flip into the back of the truck and throw that spike I knew she was going to be a machine. Then it was confirmed and an overwhelming feeling of meh came over me. It's just an obvious excuse to have impossible fight scenes.I feel it's time they went back to man vs machine violence instead of the mainly machine on machine like all the movies after the 1st one. =(
the girl power thing is fine, but hollywood needs to learn to show not tell when it comes to that stuff
john wick 3 did it right, terminator 2 did it right, it's kinda pathetic that almost 20 years on no valuable lessons have been learned
and while i'm glad this seems to be a direct and proper sequel to terminator 2, how many times have they told us this shit
and we keep lapping it up
fuck it day 1
Terminator Salvation was set in that time period.And they still haven’t fucking done the whole dark/blue future war.

Oh you mean the aesthetic? Yeah that wasn't very good.No it wasn’t. It was set last Thursday in happy fun colour land.
Why?That sounds ridiculously stupid.
Fucking tell me about it lolYou know I just remembered...
We are now, with this film, SIX movies in...
And they still haven’t fucking done the whole dark/blue future war.
How hard is it to just do some god damn blue night time laser pew pew action scenes god damn it? Give me some classic t-800 robots, with actual sets, and minimal cgi. The first was excusable for its time. The second still holds up. STILL.
How the hell can they get it so wrong each time? It’s a film about a god damn metal bloke with skin on him either killing or protecting another bloke/lass. That’s it. That’s your god damn plot.
Make with the fucking pew pew pews already and stop shoving this cgi bollocks down our throats...
You didn't think the original Deadpool was a good movie?Fucking tell me about it lol
If I were in charge I'd hand over the franchise to Alfonso Cuaron (Children of Men) and then back the fuck away.
But I guess the truth is that it's now a garbage ranked franchise that you put in the hands of discount grade directors so that it somehow shells out some cash. They really don't give a fuck.
Those were awesome scenes.You know I just remembered...

This trailer just seemed too bright and happy. Terminator, I feel should almost be like a horror action movie. This felt like fast and the furious and the expendables put together.
Yeah good luck. I can almost promise you there will be Avengers grade humor added in. That's the bar for this type of movie in these times.They really needed to make this more horrific, as stated above, more machine on man violence. More carnage.
Machines beating each other up is cool in small doses. Not the entire film. Not dark enough.
From Reddit:
The dark haired little girl is all but confirmed as the "new" Sarah Connor. James confirmed a terminator is sent back in time to kill her because she is of great significance in the future. Before that, she's just a normal woman, unaware and involved.
They chose the dark haired girl as a Mexican in Mexico City because they wanted to make the movie relevant by mixing it in with all the immigration stuff going on with US/Mexico
Sarah is a terminator hunter. She's figured out a way to know when they show up, and she's there waiting.
It's R rated!
Arnold is a T-800
Arnold maybe/probably
won't say "I'll be back"
Arnold is the most interesting T-800 you've seen yet, and he has a few funny lines.
The new terminator is named "Rev9"
The whole story takes place in 36 hours
It's not complex, it's Grim, it's Gritty, it's Fast, it's intense, it's very linear.
Cameron describes it as "a white knuckle ride", recapturing the feeling from the first movie
Judgement Day is inevitable. In T2, they kicked the can down the road.
Elaboration I would like to add to the summary:
The tagline "the day after judgment day" is all about that moment the next day in 1997 when it didn't happen, and the realization of being responsible for whatever may now happen as a result of this new future they created.
That new future being the world of today. Cameron stresses that he wants this movie to be relatable to the world we live in. It takes place in the now. And a big reason he came back to the franchise after almost 30 years was because he wanted to tackle the idea that what was science fantasy in 1984 is not as farfetched anymore. AI is coming.
What Sarah stopped is just around the corner again.
He was heavily involved in the story of this one (unlike 3-5) and has also mapped out a whole trilogy roadmap working with Miller, but he values directorial voice and so after handing off the script he let him do his job. He wants the movie to be Tim Miller's.
Most importantly he stressed that their goal is to match the tone of the first two movies, with simplicity, fear, and frantic pace. No complicated timeline shenanigans, and less cheese.
This movie serves to pass the baton to new characters.
yes i used the literal reading. how are you taking "wish this was down to Earth"? are you reading it ironically, as if he is asking for more crazy robot CGI? or is this a meta joke about something i don't have context for?
maybe provide your own reading instead of just questioning mine. then i can compare my reading to yours. as is, you are just attacking me for having the wrong opinion without providing anything to counter it.
in an era when CGI is used in every movie made, why is it gratuitous to use it in a series about time travelling killer robots? idgi
Looks mediocre. That CGI looks horrific. Emphasis on girl power cast also obvious.
Wonder why arnold isn't the main villan.
1) white
2) male
3) toxic masculinity
4) negger in his name
Movie seems like a chick flick.
Yeh I don't even know why, but it just looks too.......I dunno how to put my finger on it, it's James Cameron but it looks worlds away from T2.Terminator really can't escape this same formula, can it.
Kinda looks on the cheap side, which is most likely due to the lame-duck director. Wasn't instantly repellent like the Genisys trailer was but I don't know about this series at this point...As of right now I'm willing to give it a chance though.
Ewwwwwwwwwwwww
