Why ? I'll be brief.

The franchise is a shell of its former self. ( like almost all sci-fi franchises today ) Massive plot holes and continuity cliffs abound. And retconning characters and themes from the original works, simply to insert a cringy social justice agenda … just terrible.

As Gary from Nerdrotic said ' Hollywood is monetizing its apology for the 'pound'MeToo - Harvey Weinstein sins and the fans are having to pay for it ' .

And so it goes for this wokey dumpster fire.

Apparently there's some solid de-aging CG early on in the movie, but it's wasted on a terrible open to a terrible movie.

I have no interest in seeing Sarah Conner and her Hillary Clinton hairdo.

The Terminator franchise has been dead to me ever since they made Terminator 3.




I'll say what I said about the Batwoman TV show. It will be unfortunate if this is actually the first great Terminator movie since T2, because they've ruined it right out the gates with the shitty SJW pandering marketing.

Sarah Connor was a badass and a hero that I looked up to when T2 came out. I didn't need anybody to tell me that. The marketing for this flick is beyond gross.

Like I said, I really had no interest in seeing it anyhow. I've only caught one entirely forgettable Terminator film in the franchise after the entirely forgettable T3, and I couldn't even tell you how many of them I've missed in between. It's just sad that they feel the need to market things like this still in 2019 and haven't learned their lessons yet.

Nope. It wasn't made for me. I will not be seeing it.


I'm sure Steve Shives will be lead by his girlfriend on his leash to see it a dozen times though, and he'll enjoy every second of it.

Terminator: Dark Fate opened in first place on Friday, but it only made $10.6 million, well below expectations. Its reviews and its B plus from CinemaScore are good, but not great, meaning it won’t have the legs needed to overcome this slow start. Look for about $28 million domestically this weekend. Early reports have it performing better internationally with a likely $30 million debut in China, but again, this is below expectations and not enough given the film’s $185 million production budget.

The only way I see that happening is if they take the big risk of filming multiple movies at once and releasing them in short succession. Good luck Terminator. If you can ever get the magic of T2 back then I'll come back. For now we're still on a break.

I don't think so, the next generation isn't interested in this and STAR WARS. All good things come to an end, in the case of this and STAR WARS, good riddance. It's amazing, every new generation discovers and loves The Three Stooges, the only special effects they had was a box that made funny noises.

Guess it won't matter. Nobody is going to see this one either.

I don't even have to mention that I'm not seeing Episode 9 by now. Here's hoping none of you do either, even out of curiosity. Try to hold out and watch it on KODI if you absolutely have to see it.

Not the point.

Gotta hear all the time about Cultural Appropriation from SJW wack jobs... anything from hair styles to musical tastes, yet at the same time everything going on in every form of media today is the exact and extreme definition of cultural appropriation and somehow that's okay because it's white males being replaced.

Not even going to bother arguing this case beyond that. The ticket sales have already spoken for me. I'm happy to see them lose a lot of money on this one.

AGAIN.

I've been ruining the plot for anybody I can in the mean time. Save them a few bucks to go spend on something else. Maybe seeing Joker a 2nd time instead.

Yup.

You got what you wanted, SGG. Shed that white male guilt, baby.

You're in the minority now (of people who actually see this movie).





In the mean time, if Cameron and 12 other assholes can just remove all of the movies after T2 from cannon, I'm going to do the same thing too, including this one.

I don't blame you for forgetting that in only 3 years. Everybody involved in making the new Terminator did.

Fortunately, you're not going to lose over a hundred million dollars for your mistake.


You're going to get another five years of Trump though.

Wow, someone's feewings got hurted.

There's nothing remotely secret here, my pink kitty cat hat wearing friend.

We literally post these videos so that you can see for yourself what OTHERS are saying. Others who are also Sci-Fi fans, kinda like all of us here who were brought together by something called FIREFLY. Which, I'm almost certain, we ALL enjoyed.

There's a large contingent of people who aren't thrilled with how certain franchises are being trashed. Be it Game of Thrones, Dr. Who, Star Trek, Star Wars, Terminator...

Fans have opinions and aren't simply NPC drones who blindly , dutifully go see movies and buy merch simply because a big eared mouse tells them they must.

Fuck you both, plain and simple. You had your say, and I really don't give a shit what you say about a movie.

But when you come here with your bullshit, well let's just say I'm going to say something, especially if you don't see the movie and comment out yer ass.
Fuck politics here, in this space.

Yeah, Firefly, so the FUCK what!?

There are plenty of people everywhere that hate on certain franchises, there are people who feel that certain franchises have been ruined. Life sucks and then ya die. Again, so the fuck what? You want to talk about those fucking
things, be my guest, because both of you know that I will discuss any movie or film. PERIOD!

But don't come here with your political bullshit if you haven't seen the movie and talk shit. You're going by "I'm being replaced politics, white man bullshit." Fuck that. That's exactly what I'm talking about when I say that you have guzzled too much of the Trump kool-aid. Things were fine when "white boys" were large and in charge in the movies. Now the trend is leaning in a different direction and you "boys" lose your shit.

Grow the fuck up!

If fans feel the need to protest, go right the fuck ahead. Last time I checked, it's a free country. Don't buy the merch, don't go to the movie, do whatever the fuck un-bunches your panties. You want to discuss politics, go to the fucking RWED. Don't bring that bullshit here, very simple.
