It only took 28 years but they got there in the end Yup! Terminator 3 was dull and forgettable except for the "twist" you see in the last 5 minutes of the film. Both Salvation and Genisys I found to be "meh" and I had zero interest in watching either of those films a second time. That's a very far cry from the first two Terminator films which I have on bluray and I have seen many, many times.

Had some good action but overall thought I was just watching another remake of the other films - also getting tired of the current fashion of putting females in all the lead parts.........OK Hollywood we know you ran out of ideas about 30 years ago!

The problem is that it has become so trendy and contrived now that it just comes off as a gimmick. We had plenty of lead females in films well before this SJW trend came about.

Seriously?
Terminator from the very start had a female lead. Sarah #%&*$# Connors.
If there is one franchise you can't accuse of "jumping on the bandwagon" it is the Terminator one.
MigBuster can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe he's talking about the other female leads besides Linda Hamilton.

You would need to see it to see what I am talking about...would be too many spoilers otherwise.

Not really, I don't give a #%&*$# if there is a gay, white, black, green, purple, femaile, male, hen, tentaclemonster or republican in any of the leads.
Never given a #%&*$# about the SJW #%&*$#, never will. I watch a movie to be enjoyed and I usually am regardless of who plays what. Whitewashing, blackwashing, SJW, gay-promoting or what not.

I'm sorry, but I draw the line if the Lead is a gay purple Republican tentacle monster. Not gonna watch that. Ditto.

Nor do I usually I don't care about the acting etc it's a stupid sub par and irrelevant pop corn movie - but I will point out a very clear trend in current blockbusters if I want to. And as I just told you - you clearly don't have a #%&*$# clue what I am talking about.

I enjoyed RedLetterMedia's review of it. I don't always agree with their assessments, and I haven't watched the movie, but they do hit the franchises fairly accurately IMO.

As a huge fan of all the Terminator movies and thought I was going to hate this one with the obvious SJW theme shoehorned in but......I actually really enjoyed it a lot. If your a fan of the franchise I think it's worth a watch. Mick.

Is it just me or is hearing "It's the most lethal Terminator ever" in a Terminator movie getting to be like hearing Joe Rogan proclaim someone "the best pound-for-pound fighter in the UFC"?
