So, the first Terminator came out in 1984, everybody lost their minds. Then came T2 (an even bigger deal) and it made CGI history. And then? Buehler? I think there were two more sequels and a TV series that everyone saw and forgot. Alas, here comes number five in a dead-horse series that should've been put to bed in the 90's, Summer 2015's 'Terminator: Genisys' (That's misspelled. Ah, I see what ya did there.)

 

 

Arnie's of course coming back (see what I did there?) and so is the T-1000 too because what better way to be successful than to regurgitate your own iconic movie after the death of your franchise? They also say this movie is supposed to be not just a sequel, but also a prequel (?) AND a 'reset' to the series featuring simultaneous attacks from both future and past Terminators while being protected by another. Confused? Me too. Anyway, I'm not sure why I'm hating on a movie that I've never seen. Maybe somebody peed in my Cheerios or maybe I'm tired of getting excited to see something only to feel robbed without the need for gunpoint. Okay, I admit I'm intrigued, but I'll only go see it if go means 'to the nearest Redbox'.
