I was born in 1984 and I don't remember T2's marketing and that's a little odd to me but whatever. I guess 6 years old was a little too young for me to remember it. I did watch the teaser trailer on the special addition DVD of course. I'm just a ****e for this franchise, I even like watching the lesser films.
Yeah, the whole universe and timeline is cool.
Would you've preferred the trailer make people think that both the T-800 and T-1000 are after John? How else would they really showcase the new improved badass T-1000 without giving away Arnold is the hero this time around?

You make a good point. :up:
 
It must've sucked for people in the 90's when the trailers for T2 gave away the fact that Arnie's the protector.

That wasn't exactly a major twist. It was kind of the whole concept of the sequel.
 
I wouldn't discount William Wisher scriptments for T5 and T6 as a possible starting point for what we end up seeing in the next film. Does nobody remember this from last year?


Certainly seems to connect to Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese making contact again and the inclusion of Arnold.

Yeah I remember and it seems they are using some of this for the next Terminator movie. It will be very interesting to see just how much of Wishers ideas make it into the reboot.
 
Hmm seems like with BVS being delayed till 2016 gives the new Terminator room to breathe and do better in the BO.

Yep, its quite funny looking through the various threads how much an impact that announcement has made.
 
She's still producing it. Her brother is now financing it along with Paramount.
 
She seems to not be funding it, but if you read the article it does say she is staying on, as an EP and going to be working alongside them still.

EDIT: Octoberist beat me to it. She's still a part of it, just not funding it herself.
 
It may not be related to the movie itself having problems. This isn't her normal kind of film whereas for her brother, it is.
 
‘Terminator Genesis’: Between Jai Courtney, Boyd Holbrook For Kyle Reese Role?

"EXCLUSIVE: Paramount Pictures and Skydance are down to the wire on the final piece of iconic casting on Terminator: Genesis. I’m hearing that it’s between Jai Courtney and Boyd Holbrook to play Kyle Reese, the role originated by Michael Biehn in the James Cameron-directed original. The winner will join Arnold Schwarzenegger as the signature cyborg, Game Of Thrones‘ Emilia Clarke as Sara Connor and Zero Dark Thirty’s Jason Clarke as her son John Connor in the time travel saga that will be directed by Thor: The Dark World helmer Alan Taylor. The film will be released July 1, 2015.

It’s a big job, as it figures to span at least two movies that will end the story of Skynet’s battle with the resistance that began with Cameron’s two films with two more that followed."

Ugh, I have a feeling in my gut that it's going to be Courtney.
 
I'm preparing myself for the headache I could get if they pick Jai Courtney over Boyd Holbrook.
 
Out of the two of them I have only seen Courtney act, he did okay in DH5, but he was very good in Jack Reacher, so I wouldnt mind him getting the role at all.
 
I wouldn't be mad if they went with Courtney. Enjoyed him in Jack Reacher and A Good Day to Die Hard.
 
The guy made it out of DH5 with his dignity in tact, so major props to the kid.
 
Never seen any of these fellas work so may the actor who fits the role best win.
 
I'd personally prefer Holbrook I really don't care for Courtney.

In fairness, do we have absolutely any proof of the other guy's abilities, either?
 
No but I know that I haven't liked Courtney in the films I've seen him in so if it's between the two I'd prefer Holbrook, I like his look better as well.
 
Wouldn't mind either, Jai's pretty good in Spartacus and Jack Reacher although I wish he had avoided Die Hard. I recognize Boyd from The Big C, he doesn't give off an action hero vibe and it could work in favor for him consdering it's Kyle Reese.
 
Should be Aaron Paul or even Yelchin again. Jai Courtney ftl
 
I'm not a fan of Jai Courtney either. Looks like he's a reject from the Sam Worthington Factory.
