Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

That actually makes it sound a heck of a lot more interesting to me! Why not just go bat**** crazy with it? Be hard to be more disappointing than 3 or Salvation.
 
Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

I dunno. Also the T-1000 is Asian now supposedly. Same dude that played Storm shadow in the GI Joe flicks.



 
Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

So, what screws it up is Skynet sending back another terminator to kill Sarah's parents. The terminator the humans sent ends up dispatching the Skynet terminator and sticks around and sort of "raises" Sarah. That changes the character dynamic and messes up the original T1 timeline. Anything goes from there... I dunno, this could be interesting. I'll take it as sort of a reboot, like the new Trek movies are. It's an "alternate 1985" to use BTTF speak.
 
Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

Asian T-1000? Oh yeah, count me in baby. :rock Hell, they can bring back the chick from T3 as well while they're at it. Make it a transgendered person maybe? Or a midget?
 
Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

A-dev, we're gonna have to replace our Hot Toys T-1000 figures with this head now.

T-800's have completely organic flesh right, including dangly bits? They should make him her REAL dad which then inexplicably gives her telekinetic control over all machines. :lecture
 
Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

I just want to see a battle royale between about 4 or 5 Terminators. Pops, real original T-800, Uncle Bob, T-1000, chick Terminator, and I guess Dr. Who or whatever.

Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

I want to see Sarah have sex with Uncle Bob.

Maybe that's how new John is conceived. Since Sarah is already hardened, she'll probably see Kyle Reese as a real puss.
 
Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

Omg... That might be the actual twist of the movie... Terminator can't save Sarah's dad, so he "completes his mission." Then he watches over her. Oh god, please no.

From Screencrush:

For a film that’s set to come out next summer, we’ve heard precious little about ‘Terminator: Genisys.’ The latest attempt to resurrect a franchise that was, at one time, one of the coolest film series in the world, the fifth ‘Terminator’ film surrounds original star Arnold Schwarzenegger with a bunch of people you really like, puts a nerd-friendly guy in the director’s chair and crosses its fingers an hopes for the best. Now, we have our first look at the new cast members and the vague outline of a plot, which sounds pretty crazy.

The film is the subject of Entertainment Weekly’s next cover story and the magazine is offering two separate covers. The first features the dependably awesome Jason Clarke as John Connor, the man whose future resistance to SkyNet’s robotic uprising fuels the entire series, and former ‘Doctor Who’ Matt Smith as one of John’s “mysterious allies.” Do we smell some kind of plot twist coming with that character? The second cover features Emilia Clarke, AKA, Daenerys Targaryen from ‘Game of Thrones,’ as the new Sarah Connor and Jai Courtney, AKA, that boring guy from ‘Live Free or Die Hard,’ as the new Kyle Reese. They may look nothing like Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn, but hey, we’ll give them a chance. Courtney in particular is bound to accidentally impress one of these days.

The covers are typical EW stuff (i.e., they’re pretty lousy and lame and over-lit), but it’s the accompanying preview text that should grab your interest. It turns out that ‘Terminator: Genisys’ begins where 1984′s ‘The Terminator’ began: with John Connor sending Kyle Reese back in time to save his mother from a time-traveling cyborg … but something is different:

Terminator 5' First Look, Plus Major Changes to the History

The beginning of Terminator: Genisys, the first of three planned films that Paramount hopes will relaunch the beloved sci-fi franchise, is set in 2029, when the Future War is raging and a group of human rebels has the evil artificial-intelligence system Skynet on the ropes. John Connor (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ Jason Clarke) is the leader of the resistance, and Kyle Reese (Divergent‘s Jai Courtney) is his loyal soldier, raised in the ruins of post apocalyptic California. As in the original film, Connor sends Reese back to 1984 to save Connor’s mother, Sarah (Game of Thrones‘ Emilia Clarke), from a Terminator programmed to kill her so that she won’t ever give birth to John. But what Reese finds on the other side is nothing like he expected.

What’s different this time around? Well, it’s pretty wacky, so brace yourself:

Twist No. 1? Sarah Connor isn’t the innocent she was when Linda Hamilton first sported feathered hair and acid-washed jeans in the role. Nor is she Hamilton’s steely zero body-fat warrior in 1991’s T2. Rather, the mother of humanity’s messiah was orphaned by a Terminator at age 9. Since then, she’s been raised by (brace yourself) Schwarzenegger’s Terminator—an older T-800 she calls “Pops”—who is programmed to guard rather than to kill. As a result, Sarah is a highly trained antisocial recluse who’s great with a sniper rifle but not so skilled at the nuances of human emotion.


We knew that ‘Terminator: Genisys’ was going to use time travel to jump all over the franchise’s history and rewrite/reboot the series in the process, but that’s even nuttier than expected. The idea that Reese goes back in time to involve himself in the events of ‘The Terminator’ only to find that those events have been wiped out of existence by other time travel meddlers is just bonkers. And that’s before we get to the part about the aging Terminator who acts as Sarah’s surrogate father.
Does this mean we’ll get to see old Arnold Schwarzenegger battle a young version of himself over the life of Sarah Connor? We have no freakin’ idea. This movie, man.

Wait, this is a film student-made/fan-made/parody movie, right? FFS, FML.

Re: Terminator: Genisys (July 1st, 2015)

So this new timeline plays out like how T2 might have played out had the T-1000 managed to kill Sarah Connor and the T-800 didn't go for a swim in molten steel?

The evil Terminator, presumably sent to kill child Sarah, instead only manages to uselessly kill Sarah's mother. The T-800 is not destroyed and apparently takes no damage or is able to heal it's flesh covering which then ages to the point Arnie is at now.

Well....it already contradicts T1 in a key way. Kyle Reese said that Skynet knew nothing about Sarah except the city she lived in in 1984. So how does it suddenly know where to find her as a child? I'm pretty sure that specific detail was written into T1 so as to explain away any questions people might have about ''why not target her when she was a child, why not target her mother while she was pregnant with Sarah'' etc etc.
