Terminator Genisys
I dunno... It's looking kinda 'meh' maybe?
They continue to **** with the timeline which is confusing. So what I see in this trailer is this is the second time they send the same dude back to keep Sarah Connor alive? Wait, wut? Apparently terminators age as well? Weird but whatever. Here's the trailer. I didn't see it posted anywhere but the search function is fubar. http://youtu.be/62E4FJTwSuc |

That said, Skydance had a really difficult task in pulling together all of the Terminator rights, which were spread worldwide after the bankruptcy sale. But, they pulled it off so there is hope that at some point, it'll become a solid property once again. |

It's the production company founded by David Ellison, son of Larry Ellison who founded Oracle. He's a 32 year old kid that helped reboot Star Trek, too.
His sister founded Annapurna and produced Zero Dark Thirty amongst others. They're a family with a metric ****ton of money with a passion for great filmmaking. |

So the people that ****ed up Star Trek are now ****ing up Terminator.
Inspiring.

Star Trek is pretty much in the same boat in the TV side, which Skydance is also trying to overcome, but they say it will be years before there's another TV series. And neither Annapurna nor Skydance are owned by creatives. They're just very wealthy fans that are making an effort. You can blame Star Trek solely on Abrams, not the guy who gave him the money to do it. |

Star Trek wasn't screwed up. The first reboot movie was the most successful Trek movie of all time. The 2nd wasn't, and was a let down creatively, but its still watchable at least.
Now, if you want to say Trek has been 'dumbed down' for the masses, I get that. But old Trek had become tiresome and stale. Then last Next Generation movie was a flop and interest had been dying for years. Same with the TV series. At least Abrams reinvigorated Trek. Posted via Mobile Device |

With Simon Pegg's involvement with the screenplay along with Jeremy Lin's ability to reinvigorate listless franchises, I'd expect the latest movie to a very entertaining ride. |

I actually enjoyed both new Trek movies. The first one was admittedly better.

I won't be surprised if the new Trek movie knocks it out of the park. Simon Pegg gets it and Justin Lin is just a badass. |

Emilia Clarke did an excellent job in her role as Sarah Conner.

Loved this movie. I'm not a hardcore Terminator lover, but this one was just a fun summer popcorn ride.
