Teaser trailer....this is supposed to ignore any movies after T2. I'm cautiously optimistic with Hamilton and Cameron involved. Heard this is some of the 10 min footage from cinemacon where the cgi isn't finished yet.
@Terminator: Welcome to the day after Judgment Day. Producer James Cameron returns with director Tim Miller for #TerminatorDarkFate. In theatres 11.1.19. Watch the official trailer now. https://twitter.com/Terminator/statu...846144/video/1
At first I wondered why they cast Justin Beiber as the terminator.
Then someone pointed out that was a woman.
Yikes.

So funny how this comment actually flips SO MANY narratives on it's head.
Particularly 'Misogynists sabotage movies with women!"
But yeah. The first two films, the only ones universally loved, had a female lead. Strong female leads are a staple of Cameron period, and it's been that way for over 3 decades. So... I guess action fans aren't hateful misogynists. Maybe that's just an excuse they (specifically the director) are putting out there ahead of the release to sandbag for the fact they know it sucks. It's a marketing strategy at this point, and it never works. I think the directors stupid words assured this film loses money. It was already unlikely to make money based on the fact that we're ALL bored with these movies at this point.
Hell, Terminator 3 was actually the highest grossing Terminator, and the lead villian was a woman. And John Conner's girl was WAY more competent than he was. It still made money.
It doesn't matter. What does matter is the Terminator is a played out property. In my mind there's only 2 cannon films because I don't care, even a little, about the crap that came after T2. [Reply]

The new Terminator's special power is posing as a drug dealer. It will try to sell a lethal dose of heroin to Furlong/John Conner only to find Furlong's tolerance much too powerful.

Run credits.
Makes you wonder that he must be ok if he's in this. Don't think he's done anything since T2 [Reply]
