he went from saying the last one was “not bad” to this new one being made for Terminator fans.
And I enjoyed Avatar. Dude gave me Aliens, Terminator, Aliens, Abyss, Avatar, I’m willing to trust him from time to time.
I said the same when Ridley Scott was making Prometheus, we know how flawed that movie turned out.
Edit almost forgot to mention Exodus.
Exodus, ugh.
I blame that one on marketing, similar to how John Carter was marketed poorly.
I was referring to his poor choices, sacrificing storytelling for pace. The Geologist who designs an intelligent mapping systems but conveniently forgets how to read maps properly, the biologist who was also selected to be part of billion dollar mission to an alien world is scared of 2000 year old corpses but will happily stick his finger out at a alien cobra, etc, etc, etc.
Soooooo… do Reece and Sarah still have to obligatory bang each other to create John or does that not even matter anymore?
I’m willing to bet that is how they will stop skynet John. Always felt the movie series was basically trying to stop a paradox, in the fact a dude from the future had created somebody in the past.
The Biologist complaint is still funny to me, animal people will put all logic aside to check out a new animal, danger be damned. Being afraid of a dead corpse but having no fear of animals, any kind of animal, even an alien animal, is quintessential animal people behavior. I’ve seen animal pros be told not to touch that bird, it will bite, then reach into the cage, get bit, and still be surprised. “It bit me!” smh
When it comes to problems with Prometheus the dude reaching out to the Snake Alien isn’t a problem at all, pretty normal behavior to be completely honest. It’s the not even thinking “Maybe I should run left or right right now” that is a problem.
They stop John that way for now. Next movie another Arny Terminator shows up and tells them “Not fucking only delayed Skynet’s plans. Impregnation Day is inevitable.” Then suddenly Sarah is pregnant with John.
Emilia Clarke will be showing titties during impregnation day?
Saw this movie last night. IMO, Genisys is the best Terminator movie since Terminator 2. It’s nowhere close to Terminator 2 but it’s better than the Terminator movies out right now.
That’s not exactly saying much (although T3’s action wasn’t that bad). Definitely worth seeing if you’re a fan of the series though?
main complaint I keep hearing is the giant plot holes, including the major one (the fact they never tell you where Arnold’s terminator came from, who sent it, etc…it’s just there, accept it)
They did say it was going to be a trilogy, so I figured they will tell you in the sequels right?
One other thing… She said her cabin blew up when she was a kid, but it was arnold that was walking towards her with the rocket launcher… Wonder if he was the one who did that?
So yeah…
Just turn your brain off when watching this film and you’ll enjoy it.
T-800 is OP.
Well, its official: The Terminator series will NEVER have a good movie past part 2.
The whole thing felt like high-budget fan-fiction, and was basically Terminator 3 all over again. In other words, a fun, dumb popcorn flick, and it was AWESOME seeing Arnold in the role again. That’s about it.
Don’t get me wrong, i was entertained but, this simply isn’t a quality movie that is a worthy entry in the Terminator series. Like the Resident Evil movie franchise, Terminator have waved bye-bye to any kind of respectable story that makes sense. At least Terminator had two good movies before it turned to cinematic poop, so its +1 over RE (Shaddup! The first Resident Evil was pretty awesome, as a “side-story” in the game universe).
Arnold was also the only character worth giving a damn about. Everybody else felt like Tv actors.
Overall, its worth going to see if you’re an Arnold fan and seeing him return to one of his most memorable series. Some of my all-time favorite movies are Arnold flicks. And if there’s nothing better to see.
Umm… you guys wanna tell him, or should I?
Awwww shiiiit, they were all Tv actors, weren’t they?
Sad. Just sad.
What was the credit scene?
I’ll come right out and say it. I enjoyed this movie. I’ll cut and paste what I stated over in GD about it, earlier:
Man I rewatched that Genisys last night, and although missing a lot of plot points, and REALLY trying hard to setup future sequels (it’s part 1 of a trilogy, and it REALLY felt more like a pilot episode, than a full fledged movie, at times), it wasn’t as bad as all the reviewers are leading onto. The T-5000 and T-3000 have me interested, the shit they’re doing with Arny could be interesting (and a way to carry the character on), and I’m hoping for future time travel/alternate timeline nonsense. Almost as head confusing as The Flash tv series.
I’m hoping Linda Hamilton will show up in one of the future trilogy movies, as Future Sarah Connor, aka the one who sent Pops back.
The people who are bitching about how confusing this movie is, must have never watched any Doctor Who before. May as well steer clear of Flash tv series too, because if you don’t like the idea of multiple timelines (and Terminator explained it PERFECTLY, and that there is only TWO distinct timelines), then you’re just a colossal waste of everything.
I’m actually pretty excited to see what the sequel brings us.
