Unimpressed- hope we se more Arnies in the film but the "father" idea is pretty predictable. Yeah the original T1 and T2 stories are being heavily modified....

Pops, his name is Pops. He's programmed for love.

Can't wait to see what T2 Uncle Bob haters think of ''Pops''

Honestly a-dev, you should straight up call this sheet out & chair the T-WOT-4 boycott club.

There doesn't seem to be anything redeeming about it. Even Arnold's really just a WTF inclusion at this point.

I was kinda joking earlier when I said that Asian-1000 will guarantee that Hot Toys makes figures from this film. But I do wonder would HT dare make the Pops-800.....and if they did, how idealised would he be.

I just hope this atleast inspires them to make the real Kyle Reese and maybe an Endo.


Even if I somehow end up liking this movie and am entertained by it, no way am I buying Collectibles.

I'm still going to enjoy this film FWIW.. but yeah.

My how far the apple has fallen from the tree.

That feverish nightmare that Cameron had back in the early 80s while stuck in Rome, has now turned into an S&L extravaganza with special guests.

But nah I'm honestly looking forward to it. No need to boycott it. It may well end up being terrible but we'll always have T1 and T2.
Worst case scenario it's another terrible film and we'll just disregard it from the canon like we do 3 and 4.

I will not say 'no' with absolute certainty at this time. I've got some representative figures for T4 and will eventually finish a Cameron figure from Sarah Connor Chronicles. And I'd definitely buy a full BD T-850 from T3 if they ever made it. So I wouldn't rule out buying some Genisys figs.

"No plans yet."

Figured.

I guess with all the films, he'll end up getting half his face ripped off in this one.

Whoever's playing Kyle Reese has a very punchable face. I don't know why. Probably a mean thing to say, but seriously, don't you just want to punch his face and watch it ripple?

I'm obviously not enthused. Keep forgetting this movie's even being made.

Not as punchable as this F'ing clown.

I know exactly what you mean.

Ryan Reynolds gives me that warm fuzzy feeling too.

He's the guy from Die Hard 5.

No wonder this reeks of fail. Someone a few posts back talked about how odd these characters looked. "Goofy" is probably the term I'd use. Like some cheap TV remake or something, but clunky and not as sleek as the Sarah Connor Chronicles (which I wasn't a massive fan of, but... Summer Glau, amirite?).

 

[DiFabio]

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

Summer Glau looks like an Alien to me.


I liked the Asian soldier chick and the chubby blonde girl more.


Lol, remember the Scottish t-1000 lady?

Yep, it's probably going to suck.

I'd gladly take her over the "pops" idea. This isn't a reboot so much as them ****ting on the existing franchise.

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

Sarah Connor Chronicles had an episode where a Terminator's infiltration actually went so far as it being in a relationship with a woman as I recall. So this idea of a T-800 that actually raises Sarah Connor from childhood is actually a step back from that extreme.

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

I never watched one episode of Chronicles. After previews few it, I decided to not even bother.
