      Do a vid on Spider-Man 3 bcz it’s really really bad but also good at the same time spider-Man 3 in dance scenes in the film is there to show how bad peter has fallen to see how bad he has become he acts really bad he uses to gwen to get back at Mary Jane and he does it in a way where he tries to be cool this isn’t supposed to be funny it’s supposed to show you how peter has lost his mind and at the end where he hit mj then ran it’s a parallel to when he hit flash and ran and it was a serious moment that made him realize he is bad so then he became good again people just don’t see that

      Benchmark production/fx like T2 and Matrix set new standards that others leaned on and pimped to death.
      Now there are movies with 86% green screen and "bullet time" cos "nostalgia".
      Wasn't initially eager to see T2 as time travel only creates more questions the more it happens - nerds picking holes is how we got "Rogue One" (a movie to plug a "plot hole").
      But on seeing it in cinema - AMAZING!!
      But that was enough - UTTER TRASH since then, raping Arnie's corpse etc etc etc; sad.
      Great lil thriller indy b movie thing is all it was ever meant to be - not John Connor turning into "nanobots" cos "cool effects/imagery"

      My idea for this franchise: Why does the terminators always following skynet? When they become evil infiltrating killers calculating for the best way to rule over something, why don't killing skynet? Why don't hunting other hunters and join some humans to lower costs of victory over them while still existing and ruling them maybe as terminator as established king and protector who rescues them from skynet?

      You know what would’ve been a big and risky twist to the series, if to the point where Sarah gives birth to Reese’s baby, rather then it coming out a boy it be girl instead because a gender is always a 50/50 chance and with how many times travel has been used instead of heads it lands on tails this time on Johns gender. This would change the series greatly forcing the timeline to change and raise many questions with the characters and how they react to the massive change. It could’ve worked in a new storyline, rather then forcing in girl protagonist like what they did in dark fate, the girl John Connor is in more natural and the future is now a complete mystery because Sarah can raise her as much like John as she wants, but no matter what this new kid can’t be John Connor no matter because of her biology. It sounds like I’m making up a fanfic, but it be more original then what the hell they did with this series.

    Other thing that ruined the film was the casting: Jai Courtney felt so muscular to be a guy raised on a post nuclear wasteland (at least Michael Biehn had a credible look on the OG movie) also they tried to go MCU style with pseudo humor and jokes that didn’t went anywhere. Also Emilia Clarke was acting so out of character (nothing compared to Linda’s Sarah Connor in first and second movie). And finally that John Connor felt overacted (even Bale was credible as Connor)

The protag return to his hometown only to find out it is being attacked by a mysterious monster and his father reveals it has been happening for generations in the town. The monster always came around the same season, there is always a doctor who refused to believe the monster is real, there is always a girl to save and fall in love with, someone from their family lineage always has to defeat the monster, and the problem is no one else ever remembers the attacks or death ever happening once the monster is defeated.

      Most ppl see terminator as strictly an action franchise but thats where T1 stands apart imo. i look at T1 as almost a uniquely awesome slasher/horror flick. T2 is where the action gets turned up to 11 & is easily one of the best action films of all time. I'd say theyre actually very similar to Alien/Aliens in this regard. Besides the incredible quality of the first two films in the franchise - i'll admit that i like certain things about Salvation & i feel it was kind of a missed opportunity. It seems like Salvation had a good addition to the saga in there somewhere, it just didnt come out right. Outside of that, i dont think the rest of the sequels offer anything of value to the fans(maybe a few cheap thrills but thats it). It all just seems so recycled. Tbh - i've never seen the Sarah Connor Chronicles so i cant judge the show.
      i think if they're going to keep on pumping out these sh*tty terminator movies, than just embrace the cheese factor. How about some mashups? Gimme: Terminator vs RoboCop

    I agree with you on what you say about the opening to Terminator: Genisys. They really should have just played things as a simple reboot, and then bit-by-bit revealed how things were different this time around. Instead, I'm sure that someone had the bright idea that they need to be inclusive for people that are new to the franchise, which means a 20 minute opening scene that painstakingly explains everything that those viewers need to know - you know, the information that people learned through watching the movie when they explained it much better during the original The Terminator film.
    One movie that does the "is it a reboot?" subterfuge is The Thing (2011). At first you think it might be a sequel, but then it keeps treating things as new. When you start thinking it's just a reboot, suddenly it's doing things differently, setting up moments that reveal it to have been a prequel all along. It's not the best movie, but I respect it for trying something different by keeping movie goers in the dark for so long.
    I'd much rather learn things myself by watching the film than sit through a 20 minute primer. Imagine if any of the Alien films started off with a Resident Evil movie-style narration of the entire backstory?

    It sounds like Genisys' plot would need more screentime time to be shown properly. Like, it would've been better split into multiple movies, or else something like a book series or tv show. That way you can create a stronger overarching plot that can give the multiple resets in the overall story the time to be fleshed out properly. Like, make the first part of Genisys' story set in the 80's a whole movie by itself and have it end with preparing to jump into the future, which would then be a sequel. I mean, one the biggest problem with Genisys IMO is that it feels like two or three movies squeezed into the runtime of one.

    • @flatebo1
      @flatebo1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Genisys was planed to be the first in a trilogy. So that “overloaded and undercooked” feeling may have been resolved if they had made the intended sequels. Or they might have screwed the whole thing up even worse a la Last Jedi. But they did seem to set up a bunch of stuff that never resolved, like who sent Pops into the 1970s and why, because they were going to deal with resolving all of that later.

    Despite some flaws I think the Sarah Connor Chronicles was the best continuation of the terminator movies.
    It had good terminators learning how to human, it had evil terminators doing the standard get Connor bit but importantly, it had several terminators on missions to prepare the way so there was *always* a route in “the past” leading to the development of some version of Skynet increasing the stakes.
    Heck there were even evil Infiltration model terminators that started to wonder about their mission because the were exposed to humans for years.

      Genisys is better than people give it credit. Its worse sin is the dialog is so bad in some scenes. The acting isn't the world's best either. But storywise it's pretty good and handles the near impossible task of continuing the story in an interesting way while handling the mounting logical issues of a time travel series perhaps as well as possible. Yes, as with most fans, I think T1 and T2 are best thought of as standalone movies. But for me, Genisys is more interesting than say T3 was.

    Now that I watch this analysis, I realized that one way to fix it would have been to make Genesys into a trilogy (or at least two films). Then, as long as there's some kind of emotional payoff before each major resets, each film becomes a proper complete story. Then you can also have include each reset as a BTTF style cliffhanger to get the audience coming back for the next film. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the original plan, but then executive meddling or budget problems forced them to make it as one movie.
    It wouldn't fix all the problems, but it would fix the main structural problem, and give them a chance to make adjustments to the later films so they don't feel too same-y.

All of the others entertained me on some level. Good video though, you bring up some interesting things.

      Giving time to reasemble the terminator army to destroy humanity, the Hero create a plan to lure John into a trap and destroy him and end skynet at once.
      they fight till the last scene where we discover john mind still inside the machine, and also fight skynet, while skynet fights the hero and John from inside it manages to send the t100 to the past to keep the secuel running, just in time to john gaining the control of his body killing himself and skynet.

      They could even keep the twist that John becomes a Terminator, but instead of just making him "generic bad guy #5", he could have been secretly working behind the scenes to become the new Skynet by "assimilating" other resistance fighters and slowly turning humanity into a new breed of machine. During the big shocking reveal, the remaining resistance fighters learn that the Skynet core they destroyed was just one node of a global network of similar nodes that the AI copied itself into because keeping itself in one central location was really stupid.

    Genisys is the movie that I will defend to a point... a very short, brief point.
    Its initial concept is neat, where it's basically gone through the entire circle of events and reached its own tail again (Sarah and Reese conceive John, Sarah protects John, John grows up and becomes the leader of the resistance, Skynet sends a terminator back in time). The loop is essentially complete now. So wouldn't it be cool to have Skynet aware of how many times its messed up with this plan, and now REALLY go for some bonkers time travel tomfoolery?
    I was expecting some Back to the Future II types of shenanigans, more stuff like reenacting the "nice night for a walk" scene. Would have loved to see one or two other scenes from T1 revisted with the new cast skulking in the background, they even teased they were going to visit T2, but... they didn't.
    Unfortunately, good concept or not, it pretty much just amounts to a bunch of idiots flopping around while stuff blows up, nothing really new or exciting is introduced to move the story forward, it's just another scary robot chasing the targets down until they kill him. Woo...

    "They found a great young Sarah Connor" Uh... no. Sarah Connor in T1 was a normal young woman who was extremely vulnerable, who was forced in to an unimaginable situation, she was scared, she hid under a table, she ran away from the Terminator. Sarah Connor in T2 is the same woman but older, driven slightly insane by the knowledge of what the future holds, training hard for the moment when she has to fight. It's a realistic progression. Sarah Connor in Genisys is... a bland action movie hero who kills a Terminator in the first few minutes of the film. Also Daenerys can't really act that well outside of Game of Thrones, and even in that her acting is spotty at times.
