I know he melted and she supposedly died before Terminator III, but I don't care. In these Trumpian fanservicey times, it can't possibly be another robot or human.

This is a direct sequel to Terminator 2, so no. Genisys did not happen in this timeline. so he's a different Terminator. As for the trailer song, I can agree with you on that.

mstrox 6,612 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Interesting. I didn't see either until college, but I remember T2 especially being BIG with kids (who were apparently allowed to see R-rated movies like 8 years before I was) when I was in elementary school. I wonder if I had imprinted that one when I was younger, if I would have liked it more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,045 Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 True Lies is great! Sadly, not ever released on BD, and the DVD is non-anamorphic. I don't even know if an HD version is streaming or not Ollie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrox 6,612 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I find it shocking that a big movie like that - a James Cameron movie nonetheless - is languishing like that.

He said at the time he thought it was good, but he was probably doing a favour for Arnold. He wasn't actually involved in that film, and he's well-known for distancing himself once things go south. I think the only film he gave his honest opinion on first time was Salvation - ironically a film without Arnold. I suspect he has more at stake this time.

Quintus 5,399 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I haven't watched a Terminator movie since T3, which is where I disengaged from a once fave franchise of mine. I'd only get behind another sequel if Cameron helmed one himself, which ain't gonna happen is it, and this new one looks bad to me, at least in that terrible trailer anyway. But I'll keep an open mind based off the fact that they got Tim Miller on it this time, so that's at least a slither of hope I suppose. I see they want to replicate the Robert Patrick effect in that they went with an average looking no-mark to play the baddie, but unlike Robert, this guy just looks like a dude I'd ask to point me towards the bread in Tesco. So presumably he must have REALLY shined during his audition, because at the moment I'm just not feeling the danger at all. Also, is this an alternate co-existing timeline, or have they completely binned the other sequels like they never happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
