Terminator: Genisys - Part 5

[DKDetective]

I'm not defending Taylor.

I think he's a second rate director who hasn't done ANYTHING to prove he's worthy of being put at the helm of such an iconic franchise.

But at the end of the day, he's a hired gun. Skydance hired him to execute THEIR ideas. They (currently) control the rights to Termintor and it's their money that's financing this production.

That's the reality of this situation...

Either way, if this things fails, there won't be a shortage of blame to go around, I assure you. Everyone involved will get theirs.

I wouldn't say that Taylor is a hack or a bad director just yet, he has too many solid directing credits under his belt with The Sopranos, Deadwood, Mad Men, Rome, and Game of Thrones to be labelled as such. However, he is definitely more of a workman, journeyman director rather than a visionary or auteur. He seems to do best when his task is to execute the vision of a strong producer or showrunner. He is a strong television director, nothing more, nothing less. He is just completely wrong for tentpole films.

And that's the problem. The vision of the producers that Taylor's been hired to execute is extremely misguided and very questionable.

the Marketing is just insane on this film. People should be seriously fired for this stuff.

What the hell is happening here.

It's almost sad

 

[Hurm...]

LMAO Starlord

 

[Rowsdower!]

Lol that's great.

Seriously though, she looks like she's laughing at herself there. She looks like she knows how hilariously miscast she is in this.

 

[Sithborg]

Laughs keeps the tears away.

if this movie is not a full on bomb than things changed.

because this movie with every new week gets less attention on the internet. i dont know how this is even possible.

you know that the trailers are bad when this happens.

 

[Terminator]

I wouldn't put the blame on the trailers but a lack of/misguided marketing overall.

 

[titansupes]

I put the blame on the marketing department... and everything the marketing department had to work with.

 

[Rowsdower!]

I'm not sure you can blame the marketing department when a movie looks this bad to begin with. Granted, clever marketing hoodwinked me into thinking Terminator Salvation would be good, but at least that movie looked pretty good overall; it was just the script and the direction that were crap.

This, on the other hand, looks like total sh** AND is chock-full of stupidity and bad dialogue, as far as I can tell. Any marketing team that could make this movie look good deserves a f***ing Nobel Prize.

 

[titansupes]

^ Yep, exactly what I'm saying.
