True. That was what they led with in the early marketing and it was quite an eyerolling thing to read in the context of a Predator movie of all things. Plus it came after we'd had Terminator Dark Fate highlighting much the same stuff in its own marketing and look how that turned out. It ruined T2's ending in a way that none of the prior sequels ever had, bad as they were, and what did it offer in compensation? Pretty much an identical storyline and the usual increasingly absurd chase set-pieces that can't be taken seriously as occurring in a real world with physics and human mortality. And John Connor being replaced by a girl was supposed to make all of this worthwhile like as though that was the thing that was wrong with those prior films? 'Fraid not guys.
But look, marketing missteps notwithstanding maybe they've actually pulled something off here.
