So bascially they took the plot from the first and second movies and tried to make a prequel? Honestly it just looks like a crappy remake of the original. And does old ass arnold schwarzenegger really need to be in this movie? And over the hill Terminator makes for a great movie(sarcasm). I've always wanted them to make a prequel showing you the events leading up to the first movie, now I wish they would have just stopped after the second one.
Honestly, I'm so tired of watching Terminator in the past and present time. I wanted to see the future. The fracking future, where the resistance is being fought. They just had to go and reboot it.

No. It's pretty obviously a reboot. Time travel makes that inherently easy. Hollywood is on a reboot craze at the moment --- Planet of the Apes, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, X-Men, 21 Jump Street, Star Trek. I think we'll see more before this ends. It's only a matter of time before we get Terminator vs Alien vs Predator vs Sanford & Son. "It's the big one, Elizabeth!"
I loved T1 and T2. Some of my favorite movies. T3 was a travesty. I never saw the one with Christian Bale. But I was surprisingly impressed with the TV show from a few years back. So yeah, I guess I'm a T-fan, which is why I hope this new movie will be great. But the preview didn't leave me with a lot of hope. It looks like most of the director's attention went into action and affects rather than drama and story.
I agree they should have ended the story with T2. T1 and T2 are among my favorite movies of all time. I did not like T3 at all, but I did like Terminator: Salvation.
I have to say I am not interested in this movie whatsoever...and that is saying something considering how much of a Terminator fan I am. When I watched the trailer, I felt underwhelmed and a bit disgusted. I feel like this is just completely unnecessary. If anything, continue the story from where Salvation left off or just leave it alone. But that is just my opinion.
That was so bad I could only watch the trailer once. Who's still impressed by the liquid T-2000. This just looks awful, barely good enough to show on the scifi channel. Terminator 1984?, the original was a classic. T2 went from great film to just pretty good when they had Arnold say to that annoying, bratty young John Connor, "I now know why you cry," ugggghh.
And this -----v
