The Evil Genius Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Arnie kind of looking like Jeffrey Dean in this pic. Excited that Cameron is involved again and it's picking up right after T2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mournblade Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 (edited) Ah-nuld looks pretty great for 71. I haven't followed the Terminator franchise since T2, but Dark Fate seems intriguing. Edited April 4, 2019 by Mournblade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bozo the kKklown Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Saw John Wick, Chapter 3... the first 25 minutes of that movie. It surpasses all expectations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chew Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Chew, name 1 movie that changed your life forever. Your all-time, hands down, favorite film. Terminator 2. And apparently this joint takes place in the T2: Judgement Day timeline, none of the other movies after that ever happened. GOOSEBUMPS. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And apparently this joint takes place in the T2: Judgement Day timeline, none of the other movies after that ever happened. GOOSEBUMPS. This looks like it could be good. I like Mackenzie Davis a lot. She was great in Halt and Catch Fire. I know what I'm about to say is going to ruffle some feathers because I know some are going to take it the wrong way and that's fine. I also don't give a Frenchman's ****. I'm tired of the trend in Hollywood of reboots with female lead actresses. And that's not meant to be a sexist statement (even though some of you will undoubtedly take it that way), I'm not saying I don't like female actresses, I'm not saying I don't like female characters. Lord knows Sarah Connor is one of the biggest badasses in any movie, T1 and T2, she's fantastic. I'm saying if your reboot relies on promoting a woman as a way to sell tickets and gain interest and doesn't have a good storyline or plot to stand on, that's sexist in and of itself. Has this strategy ever worked? The Ghostbusters remake was terrible. The new MIB looks terrible. If the only original (let's face it, it's not original) thing you can do is put a female in a lead role of an established franchise as a way to generate interest again and ignore all the other things that a movie needs to be great...that is weak and borderline insulting to anyone that has a bit of discerning taste. Did Ghostbusters need a reboot anyway? Was that necessary? Does MIB? What's next, a reboot of Back to the Future with Lily Tomlin playing Doc Brown and Millie Bobbie Brown playing Marty? I know Hollywood is in it to make money and if they're making money off stuff like that, well, mission accomplished. Doesn't mean it was good. I am hoping the story for this Terminator movie is fantastic because if all you're doing is trotting out Mackenzie Davis, Linda Hamilton, Arnold Schwarzenegger and slapping James Cameron's name on it as a producer (not director, but he does have writing credits here) in hopes that they're reviving a dead franchise...well, it needs more than that. Mackenzie Davis is a great actress, hopefully she's got a good storyline and plot to work with. T1 and T2 are classics and if they're inserting this into that storyline and acting like the others didn't happen, it needs to be awesome on all levels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with you overall, though. Hollywood pumping out all these remakes, relying on the name of the original and swapping out with a female lead to be edgy, is just crap. The originals deserve better. Blatant money grab, and you can't shame the shameless in the movie industry who green light these monstrosities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if this new Terminator movie is indeed a reboot of sorts, I hope it does well. Curious to see how they work Arnold back into the storyline.

NoCalMike Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 If hollywood insists on making more Terminator sequels I wish they would, at least once, go back to the formula of the original, instead of constantly trying to redo T2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that the other Terminator movies are just different timelines not that they never happened. BTW Fury Road was a great reboot with a female lead.

Berggy9598 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Thought Tolkien was very enjoyable. I think it holds more appeal to avid fans because it’s not a grand production biopic and there’s not a whole lot of hit you over the head references to LOTR or The Hobbit, but if you’re a Tolkien reader you’ll definitely like it. Nicholas Hoult and Lilly Collins surprised me with how well they performed and even though Derek Jacobi made a brief appearance he’s brilliant as always. Definitely going in my collection when it’s released on whatever platform I’ll be using and something I could watch over and over. Since the Tolkien estate denounced this movie I have a fantasy in my head that they’re using it to gauge interest to possibly get Peter Jackson ready for the Silmarillion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Sam Raimi producing. Same director as Don’t Breathe, which I loved. Should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
China Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 (edited) Looks stupid and unrealistic. Wouldn't be able to engage my willing suspension of disbelief for that. I'd be laughing too hard. At least Lake Placid didn't try to take itself seriously and was made to laugh at. Edited May 26, 2019 by China 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
