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.

Only Actor that did a shitty job was Jai Courtney, he was decent in Spartacus but after that it's downhill.

There's been several different people play John Connor. Different people have played Sarah Connnor. But different Terminators that could wrap their cybernetic skeletons in any skin in the world are all played by Arnold.

Dont think I'm going to see this one. I'm kind of spent on the whole Terminator Series.

lol...it's not horrible, but man it was average as ****...easily the worst Terminator film and that's saying something.

Redeeming factors: Arnold cheese, some truly amazing facial CGI and seeing future war

Worse than 3? I didn't think would even be possible.

FWIW, I think Alan Taylor is a shit director. They should have chosen more wisely.

Three had a somewhat original ending, more interesting characters, and better action. And it was a lot funnier.

This felt like discount Terminator 3.

I will say this...they made the original Terminator at the beginning of the film scary. I remember how shitty it was in Terminator 4, when the thing had MULTIPLE chances to just close it's fist on whoever it was trying to kill and ended up just throwing them around.

And the CGI Arnold face looked incredible. There's going to be some fun movies coming out with that tech. Maybe we can get some of that in Star Wars and give us a young Luke. Although...it probably held up best here because the Terminator barely speaks or changes expression.

'Terminator Genisys' Writers Tease "Multiverse" Sequels

Just yesterday it was being reported that J.K. Simmons has signed on for a couple more Terminator sequels, should Genisys do well enough to warrant them, of course. Aside from seeing Arnold Schwarzenegger fight himself, Simmons is easily one of the only enjoyable parts of the film. Another one of the enjoyable parts is Matt Smith’s character, who was hidden in promotional materials — for good reason.

Spoilers ahoy, obviously

In Terminator Genisys, Smith plays Skynet — yes, he is Skynet. As Skynet is a sentient being of sorts, writers Laeta Kalogridis and Patrick Lussier chose to give it a human form, one that becomes increasingly human as it evolves prior to launch. I wouldn’t necessarily call Smith’s Skynet character “good,” but I will say it’s one of the weirder elements of the film, and Genisys could use more weirdness.

Smith’s character is a key part of the film, and in a new interview with CraveOnline, Kalogridis and Lussier further explain his importance and where they could go with it in the sequels:

You see in the beginning. [Matt Smith] grabs John. He’s not from this timeline. He’s from an alternate universe, in the multiverse. Another of the many universes that exist. That Skynet is not from that timeline… This Skynet has been to this universe, and this universe, and this universe. That’s why he says, ‘I came a very long way to stop you.’ He’s not from here. So he’s watched it. He’s watched it happen a bunch of different times, and each time he’s seen it there is a different result but the same result.

Honestly, the way they describe it sounds way more interesting than what we see in Terminator Genisys, which does hint at multiple timelines without digging in too deep — there’s already so much time travel and changes to the original timeline already, and the characters spend 90 percent of the film explaining it.

Perhaps further Terminator sequels would have more freedom in getting totally weird with it without having to constantly explain what’s happening. With a “multiverse” approach, it also allows the series to keep rebooting itself with each installment, showing us all the different ways in which this same story repeats itself in various timelines. If they really wanted to get weird, we’d see Sarah and Kyle figure out how to hop from one universe to another in the sequels. Just a thought.

Yeah the Skynet as a character was honestly one of the more interesting parts of the movie.

It wasn't awesome or anything but I enjoyed it and Clarke did a good job.

Don't see how it can be worse than T3, that movie should've been aborted. Salvation had a good idea and failed miserably.
