Terminator: Dark Fate - R-rated trailer + Artwork posters
- Thread starter DiipuSurotu
- Start date
The flesh and skin around it ages, the metal skeleton stays the same (thought I'd assume like all machines even that would wear down/need maintenance)
They are really trying sooo hard to make Sara look like a bad ass.
Also, "he's the most lethal Terminator ever created." *cringe*

That is the best trailer yet. But, still looks like we should be hoping for a mediocre movie at best. They keep talking about it tonally fitting with the first two movies, but every single thing they show looks like a modern CGI action movie, and nothing more.
Yeah, that line got me too.

You know, it is odd that they didn't show what makes him unique this trailer, now that you mention it. I guess they assume everyone has seen the previous trailers that show what he can do at this point.
You do see him conjoin with his separate endoskeleton in this trailer, it's quick but it happens.
Terrible.
Yeah. I wonder if there is a weakness to him when he splits, given that shot. You have Arnold and the other non-terminator-terminator standing there, why go back together?
Terrible.
It's like he's trying to warn us not to see this movie.
My idea for a rebooted Terminator movie is where a female scientist is getting chased by a member of the resistance and the machines send back one of the creepy looking plastic skin terminators to protect her.
Its not a great idea but it has some premise.

"Living tissue over metal endoskeleton" was first said all the way in terminator 2.
Huh, I thought it would be more likely just to decay and fall off.
They can maintain the skin by eating. A deleted scene in Terminator 1 had it eating a whole candy bar, wrapper and all, in order to provide nutrients to the skin and flesh. Otherwise it will rot and fall off.
I still think the film will be okay but could really do without so much CGI overload and callbacks run into the ground, still kinda amazing that the franchise never had that less is more moment yet, it's like they keep getting crazy budgets instead of being told no. Cracking set of posters.
Another embarrassing trailer. Their reconning the sequels to make another rehash of those shitty sequels. See everyone in 4 years for the 5th reboot.
Still looks tacky as fuck. Not the actual artwork on the poster, because that's awesome. Just the fake fold creases. It's just a peeve of mine in modern "retro poster" art in general. There's been other "retro style" posters I've rolled many eyes at when I've seen they've drawn in the tacky fold marks. Hell, I think some of the custom art for Scream Factory releases have the creases on the cover artwork.
How? It was Terminator 2 but worse in every way. The very last scene was good but that was it. If any of these movies tried something different it's Genesys

No, this one does ignore the sequels. It's a direct sequel to T1 and T2 ignoring everything else:
She looks badass!
There's just way too much going on. Too much CG. Too many Terminator gimmicks. Too much weightless fighting.
There's no grit or dread to anything on display there. The villain or whatever might as well be from the MCU. There's nothing menacing about it.
The movie has way too much "Hollywood lighting" going on; the way it's shot gives it so much fucking gloss and sheen.
It's just big budget schlock when a true Terminator film that goes "back to formula" needs to be low key, dark, scaled back, with an almost indie movie feel to it.
It is so, so disappointing that they went this route.

Trailer is fine. Seems to promise a fun C grade movie that we won't ever feel compelled to watch again.
Either the movie is middling and there isn't much to show in the trailers because there isn't much in the movie itself or they're taking the Russos approach and disallowing certain scenes of sections of the movie the be shown (unlike the other shitty Terminator sequels).
I'm betting on a poorly hidden bullshit storyline (that multiple people are already predicting) involving this Arnie Terminator being forced to kill John Connor to save the future and that's why Sarah Connor hates him.
It's dumb that she hates him and that's the best way to explain why John Connor is absent from the trailers. (weeee can't wait for the flashback)
God I hope I'm wrong about all of this.
...Ok I'm going to assume you're one of the few people that dislike the first two movies.

This was a very well made trailer and things def look more polished but it felt like the cool editing and sound effects added maybe throwing some lipstick on a pig.
fact is this will be day 1 in theatre and I can see it not bombing but ehhhh this still looks stinky.
oh well not like it matters we always have the first two, and some day they will give the series a good movie again might take another 2-4 tho lol

So the security guard from T2 survived, had a twin all along who is a security guard too or is just a cameo? Hmn...
Linda Hamilton sounds drunk in every scene they show her in.
I'm not saying that to be a dick to her or people with drinking problems (or god forbid, make light of a serious issue she may have if she actually maybe has a drinking problem). It's just something my ears kept picking up whenever she spoke.
It was jarring.

The trailers have been terrible. I think that is the primary reason.
To be fair The Sarah Connor Chronicles from what I remember are arguably the second best thing to come out of the franchise and IMO come close to beating out T2 for me too.No, this one does ignore the sequels. It's a direct sequel to T1 and T2 ignoring everything else:
