Hmmm no really feeling it.
PROS:
Score
Time travel tech
Action looks cool
Future war looks Cameron-esque
CONS:
Kahleesi doesn't work for me as a badass.
The first Endo looked so CGI
"We can stop Judgement Day" - sorry I just don't believe you as you've tried that several times already
"Come with me if you want to live" - ugh
Wiping away the originals

The Star Wars and Jurassic World trailers made me go from indifference to getting genuine chills.
This trailer made me care even less. I don't even dig Emilia Clarke, honestly. "Now, soldier!" sounded cheesier than Linda Hamilton's lines at the end of T1.
This is coming from someone who loves both the two original Cameron films and Salvation (which looks even more original after this thing).

Yup, you pretty much nailed it. That seems to be the case, but I was hoping to see the T800 with the sunglasses again. I'm still giving the film a chance, despite the CGI and the cast. Looks better than Salvation and T3...less jokes, more serious.

Not looking great but looks OK. Everyone will still see it regardless.

It's "less jokes, even more self-quoting".

There seem to be fewer intentional jokes, anyway.

my main problem with this, she's not believable as Sarah Connor. and I don't like the sack of potatoes who they cast as Kyle Reese

I don't get the Asian T-1000 at all.
So he happens to be the patrolman the night Kyle Reese arrives in 1984 by the clothing store? I thought it was that black cop ("what's the year!!")? I just don't get this.

Doesn't he do that in a all the films already? Even non Terminator films...with the "I'll be back"?

The entire plot is built on coming back to originals and hearing same old crap.
Every character (except T-1000) in the trailer quote something from originals.

I thought the exact same thing.
It looks cheap (Endoskeleton CGI looks worse than Sarah Connor Chronicles tv show), sounds cheap (is that The Dark Knight truck flip sound effect for the bus??). They're literally going back and wiping their ass with the '84 T-800 and Robert Patrick T-1000.
The future **** looked interesting with the freeze chambers and time displacement machine, but man oh man, they lost me when they went to the "present day" or whatever. It's horrible, horrible! I loled hard when Arnold (and it's Arnold, not the Terminator), jumped out of the plane/helicopter into the other one with some of the worst looking green screen and CGI effects I've ever seen. Man oh man. I shoulda made a reaction vid to this like everyone did with Star Wars because I was definitely slack jawed. Holy ****, I'm dying.

Really does look like Terminator's Greatest Hits!
Nothing original here, just the same old story once again under attack.
We have our first disappointment of Summer 2015. And the last installment to include Arnold.

So from what I can tell the future is the same future from the first movie but a T800 goes back long before 1984 to raise Saraha Connor then kill the 1984 T800.
What. It can't be the same future as that future would've had this old T800 sent back already. So it's a new Skynet future?
Yeah her delivery was so forced.
They seem to just be rehashing all the tropes of the Terminator classics for the nostalgia factor but it just comes off lazy, almost as an unfunny parody

Can't tell if you're talking about Star Wars 7 or T5 That's true, and the Asianator will say at some point, "Say, that's a nice bike." It's inevitable.
