Whats the deal with the new Terminator film?
does anybody actually know?
is it a reboot or what?
digitalspy keeps reporting it as a 'reboot', but other sources on the internet actually say it is simply another terminator film but 'messing with the timeline' type thing. just with different actors playing each part. (as the others are too old)
then ofcourse the original rumour which digitalspy reported was that the arnie terminator goes back in time to the 1940s to protect the connors ancesters (i quite liked that idea)

I haven't a clue!
Is anyone out there genuinely excited about this project?
Nobody involved (from top 2 bottom) gives me any hope whatsoever that they'll produce summit worth watching!
T2 is one of the best sci fi films ever made, certainly in the top 10 sequels of all time.
Maybe for you, just found it over long and dull for the most part, like most of Cameron films (Aliens, Abyss, Titanic, Avatar & True Lies). T2 certainly wasn't as bad as 3 or salvation though, but nowhere near a patch on the original.
Nothing else.
A kick in the head would be better than 3. Clare Danes SERIOUSLY annoys me in that film. Thank god her acting has improved on Homeland.
I think it was to reveal how the antics in T1 accidentally gave birth to a new division in Cyberdyne Systems (the people behind Skynet). I think the idea was that someone found fragments of the Terminator, and used those to create a new type of A.I. machine. As Cyberdyne Systems became bigger and serious, someone inside was alarmed enough to spread the word, which gave birth to the Resistance.
Has that plan been dropped?
depends, how old is the John Conor which has been cast ?
Fun question. According to his IMDB profile, Jason Clarke is 43. In Terminator Salvation, Connor is what, 31?
Jai Courtney (awful choice) - appearing as Kyle - is 27. In Terminator Salvation, Kyle's around 17. In Terminator 1, he's between 26 and 29.
This suggests T5 may take place ten years after T4 and that there will be a visit to Sarah's time.
Sounds like T5 will be a sequel? Possibly, a bridge between T4 and T1?
T1 is brilliant sci-fi horror, T2 is brilliant sci-fi thriller.
T3 was complete garbage and T4 was too removed from the originals and concentrated too much on a irrelevant sub plot (Marcus' story arc).
Future Terminator movies also have the problem of being associated with an over the hill Arnie. He is totally unsuited to be cast as a Terminator now, but he is still mentioned and seemingly involved in new Terminator projects.
Pity they seem to have dropped (or he left them) Christian Bale.
T2: Superb
T3: Disappointing
T4: Ordinary
So expectations for the next are not particularly high.
Two is amazing and my fave (watching it right now in fact) but I also love three and four. Part one is my least fave.
I'm kinda looking forward to it. Never been a big fan really.
I disagree. An old man, or woman terminator, would be a perfect infiltrator, or even a child. They would elicit sympathy, and would be welcomed into a group, whereas some hulking great, physically perfect specimen would arouse suspicion.
Interesting, I've never heard a fan of the Terminator franchise saying their least favourite is the original. What is it you don't like about it?
He didn't half lose his rag last time, remember.
