Should've just left it after T2, everything since has been pretty trash. Not keen on the idea of a reboot either, Arnie IS the terminator. I feel the same about the Commando remake that seems to be stuck in limbo, leave it alone!!

Good. Hopefully that means this will be the sequel to Genisys. It really was a good movie. I want to see where they go after how it ended.

Am I the only one who enjoyed Schwarzenegger in Genysis? Sure the story was shit but he was really good on his role.
 
Hadn't seen it, but I thought the new Terminator was actually pretty entertaining? Not "good", but a decent popcorn flick?

It's pretty good. I was surprised at how well it's done and how surprised I was at how much I liked it. I have absolutely no nostalgia for this franchise, and am not clouded by anything but curiosity.
For comparison of my tastes, I found star was tfa to be uttery filled with plot holes and inconsistencies. I hated the hateful 8. Just a void of real narrative. Nothing happens in the movie. Anyone can make this movie with a decent t budget.


I don't want another Terminator. All the movies after 2 were abysmally terrible. Especially 3 and genysis.

See this is typical cloudy judgements. Everyone has their opinion though.

Nah, that's Raiders of the Lost Ark



Nah, that's the first Terminator.



Nah, that's Predator.

(or rather - the fact he actually governed the state of California. That's a pretty big high note)

This is just stuck on the past nostalgia here.

Honestly I enjoyed Genesys more than I should've. Have a good script and for the love of God recast Kyle because Jai is absolutely terrible! Have Emilia sit down with Linda Hamilton to have a better portail of the character. And honestly it can be pretty good.

Nah, it's just being right.

You gonna actually argue that T2 is the pinnacle of Schwarzenegger's achievements next to the fact he GOVERNED an entire state? Even so, He's better in Predator than he is in T2, and Predator features probably his best performance as an action star.

In my experience, I've found it's a specific sort of nostalgia that contributes somewhat to the argument that Terminator 2 is the best action film of all time. It's not necessarily nostalgia to argue otherwise. Certainly isn't in my case.

And again: this isn't happening. Schwarzenegger's just talking shit. Nobody's going to put any money into this, especially not with his old ass in it. Genisys killed the brand. It will need a lot of time off.

Genisys was horribly miscast and spoiled to hell and back in the trailers. That being said, the script was pretty clever and it was an enjoyable little action flick. Haters gonna hate.

Since T6 will probably be made by James Cameron I hope he does a alternate sequel like they did with Superman Returns. it could pick up after 2. Maybe they could get the original cast back. I'd like to see Eddie Furlong get another chance to get his life together. Linda Hamilton can come back too. I hope they could work Micheal Beign in somehow. I'm sure they could work something out. Even if it'd have to be CG he could do the voice.

I still want The Rock to be a terminator.

Imagine him turning on all that charm and once he gets close he goes completely cold and then murders the hell outta whoever.

But he'd be the easiest Terminator to get away from. All you'd need to do is a brisk jog and you'd tire him out in a few minutes. He'd have to lay down for a nap, and you could make your escape.

Well congratulations! You got yourself caught!
How was the Bale Terminator? I always did want to see it, but never got around to it. Actually haven't seen one of these films since T2...

Genisys was not that bad. The hyperbole around that movie is absurd. Sarah Conner was terrible and Jai was bland but Arnold was great and conceptually it was pretty interesting. It also had the best rendition of the theme. Salvation and Rise of the Machines were both far worse.

I'll be on board for 6 but I really don't believe it will happen until it happens.
 
good luck finding someone that will passionately fight for terminator 3 and salvation

T3 was better than Genysis. Genysis was the worst ret-conned BS with the most uninteresting actors I've ever seen.

Danarys as Sarah Conner was about the biggest bungle any casting director could have made. Then they cast Jai Courtney.

T3 was mediocre, but at least it tried.
 
Arnold makes the not good Terminator movies bearable so why not.

Cameron being involved would be great but I guess he has forty-seven Avatar sequels to complete first.

As much of a trainwreck Genesys was, I would be lying if I said I didn't have a good time in the cinema watching it. Arnie was one of the reasons.

If you were the star of an iconic movie franchise, I think you'd want to be involved as much as possible. Good for him!

With Cameron getting back the rights and Miller as a Director I will have faith one last time for this series.
I would like them either to continue the plot after the events of T2 while erasing all events from 3-5,
or to reboot from T1. The reboot would have to be extremly well made tho..
 
I think done correctly it can still work.

Having Arnie play a human who the T1000 is later based on would be the ideal option, maybe someone high up in Skynet or some shit.

Having him play another machine who for some reason ages would be going a bit OTT now.
