Hot Toys - MMS136 - The Terminator: 1/6th scale T800 Collectible Figure (T1)

[a-dev]

Excellent! Toy line easily passed on.

T1 and T2 . . . . obsolete. No more arguing now, they'll both suck now that the franchise has been rebooted.

Nevermind . . .

I dont get this.
The originals are here to stay.
Forever and having reboot are not tainting them in anyway.
And are available at any time.
The reboots are for nowadays kids not for us.
I dont see the problem.
If they suck, more power to the originals fans to show the kids the good stuff. If they re good then its a new addition to the terminator universe.

Now let Arnold rest in peace, he's done a man's job time to move on its getting sad...

 

[mr flibble]

You don't have to get it! It's just nice when Hollywood comes up with new ideas for films not just rebooting every classic film. Look at Spider-Man, I thought it was two soon to tell the same story again. Each to their own I guess

 

[tominator56]

its more the fact that terminator fans want a continuation of the story, we want to see the future war, not the film started again! that being said, the reboot may be a pleasant surprise - who knows!

Its hilarious the way that article talks about Arnold returning as a Terminator and makes not a single mention of the fact he's in his 60s and looks it.

Also, why would Arnie be in it if its a reboot? Is this an Abrams style Star Trek reboot in which case.....its not really a reboot? Same universe but with timeline changes? That's basically what Terminator has always been. Was each existing Terminator film to be considered a reboot aswell? I don't get it.

'Ahem', Action figure thread.

 

[tominator56]

Arnie has no reason to be in the next film. The guys over at TheTerminatorFans.com aren't happy chappies!

We have been talking about Terminator 5 on this website for a long time ever since Terminator Salvation hit the screens. You may have followed our news, hype, ideas and opinions of what the next Terminator movie should be.

A total reboot was feared and it came true. It was a logical choice that the next Terminator movie could simply be called ‘Terminator’ as the first Terminator movie was called ‘The Terminator’ it was the obvious next step. We held off mentioning this a long while ago just in case the owners decided to change the name of the project to Terminator: ________ (fill the space) but now the official IMDb page for Terminator 5 has officially become ‘Terminator (2015)’.

We do not agree with the reboot or support it but we do approve of the title. So, from here on we will no longer refer to the project as Terminator 5 because it isn’t a continuation according to all the latest reports.

The Terminator Fans

We have had numerous emails and messages from fans who are severely disappointed with the reboot. We have been requested to run polls, petitions and hardcore fans are even calling out for a boycott in aid of getting the script and project ditched in favor of a continuation.

If we thought it would help we would do it and we may run some polls and set up a petition but casting begins as early as next week and filming begins in a matter of months. Even if we did these things it’s too late and once these people set this stuff in motion there’s no going back!

The next Terminator movie will start a complete fresh, new actors will take over the roles made famous by Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn and the only current returning cast member will be Arnold Schwarzenegger. With such a gutting of the franchise we personally don’t even see the point of Arnold returning anymore and he was obviously willing to go along with this total overhaul so he can obtain another fat movie pay-check.

Not all Terminator Fans are fans of Arnold Schwarzenegger and now a divide has begun. Personally TheTerminatorFans.com will not be paying to see this movie. We are of the original fan base, we wanted a continuation and not a reboot because a reboot will not solve the numerous problems running amok in the franchise and with the addition of these latest casting news stories, well… it makes us sick to the stomach.

We have even been contemplating shutting this website down over the past few days or at least stop mentioning this project.

Fans waited since 1991 for a fitting continuation and now ‘Hollywood’ has ended the chance of that happening.

If we had a choice between Arnold Schwarzenegger returning or a true continuation we would choose to terminate Arnold from the project. Without James Cameron in place as director to beat his *** down all Arnold does is help destroy this franchise. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. He demanded one liners for T3 and look where that got us!

R.I.P. Terminator Franchise!

No Fate has no become No Faith. **** director, **** writers and a bunch of eye candy kids as the cast. No thanks! Take your film and shove it in a real dark place… a place darker than the future war.

Terminator reboot?
What is the point? Do they seriously think they can match the original, let alone beat it?
I would MUCH prefer a proper sequel showing the future war as seen in T1 and T2. Salvation tried but completely failed TBH.

They are well and truly clueless. In what way is this going to be different enough from the original concept to be worthwhile? Like the article says if its a total reboot why in gods name would Arnold be playing a Terminator again? It makes zero sense outside of money reasons.

Well, whatever, Terminator is dead. T1 and T2 was our lot folks.

 

[DiFabio]

Okay, if they're rebooting the franchise and recasting Sarah and Reese, why bring Arnold back?

Why not just cast a new actor as the infiltrating T-800? Arnold should be done as far as I'm concerned. He's an old has been. When will he, Stallone and the others get that in their head?

Exactly my point I was making a-dev. Just grab hold of terminator 1 and 2 and love them forever. I even managed to watch the Sarah Connor choronicles and excepted it for what it was . Not this reboot ****e tho

Well lets not be mean to Arnold, we love him. But there's no logical sense to him playing a Terminator again at his age let alone a Terminator in an otherwise entirely rebooted franchise.

Its a pity we couldn't get at least one more great film out of it but what can ye do. At least we'll always have those.
