re: Bad news regarding Terminator Dark Fate.

I saw Linda Hamilton was gonna be back I was like..umm ok..this might be good. Then I saw her photo on set and was excited. Then I saw the trailer and my constipation cleared up. Not gonna go see that horrific looking movie.

Major movie franchises such as “Ghostbusters” and “Star Wars” have been targeted by misogynistic internet trolls in recent years for prominently featuring female characters in leading roles

Or maybe for sucking?

Good grief. No one hates female characters. People love female characters who are interesting and compelling. What people don't like is hamfisted preaching and one dimensional portrayals.

This. They could have made a female Terminator and not have the entire cast be practically female. Look at Alien, Fury Road, etc. all movies with great female protagonists. This is obvious SJW shite and I rarely say that type of shite on this board because most of the time it’s silly. This time it’s not. This is clearly an SJW push. The two dudes in the film are a 65-year-old man and the other is the villain it’s TLJ type shite.

Which one of the Ghostbusters was preaching again? That movie didn't suck because the characters were female. It didn't suck because the female characters sucked. It was just kinda half-assed all around.

And Edward Furlong. You rarely say this kind of thing, so you'll go hard at a movie you haven't seen yet with some assumptions based solely on the marketing so far? Saying the phrase "SJW push" throws into question everything else you said. That's conspiracy youtuber vocabulary.

So apparently Furlong is coming back, God I hope it isn't just a small cameo

Fury Road had an absolutely terrible female protagonist. If it weren’t for Max they’re all dead 20 minutes into the movie.

I met Furlong at a con a few months ago and he was overweight and had a hang over. He better go on an intense workout regimen.

Stop making shite up and keep the PT bullshite on PT

Bumping this thread as reshoots apparently:





POTENTIAL SPOILERS BELOW!!!!!!
















Brought back Furlong, meaning John Connor may not be killed off in the first act after all.

Absolutely mind boggling that they’d retcon the 3rd-5th movies just to immediately kill off the character that the first two movies revolve around.

They should probably just let the Terminator franchise die. It was an awesome idea that spawned 2 great movies but if you think about it the concept really doesn’t lend itself to further sequels very well.

I was pretty hopeful this would be good. I loved McKenzie Davis in Halt and Catch Fire. Im guessing this is just going to turn into a DL and watch at home.
