Hollywood: "We saw you all bought plenty of tickets to Terminator: Genisys despite the problems. You want more?"

Audience: "Give us more!"

Hollywood: "John Connor is now retconned dead and replaced with a Mexican woman!"

Audience: *leaves*

Skynet was destroyed, the future was saved. For the love of god just let it be over....god damn. This is the same reason we didn’t need a Back to the Future 4. Imagine a movie where Michael J Fox in drag playing his daughter isn’t a joke, it’s WOKE!

Dark Fate faces losses of $120 million-plus for partners Skydance Media, Paramount Pictures and 20th Century Fox, which each put up 30 percent of the $185 million budget (Disney, which now owns the Fox film studio, will absorb the loss), sources tell The Hollywood Reporter. China's Tencent has a 10 percent stake.

China ruining another movie?

Either way, good. They killed this franchise and I'm at the point where I probably will never see another one.

Marty McFly goes back in time to the high school dance where his parents meet, but his mom hooks up with one of the black guys in the band, and when Marty returns to the present his character is now played by Jaden Smith.

Audience reaction: "Fuck this shit."

Chinese audience aren’t interested in Dark Fate either. They saved Genysis but probably had buyers remorse. China didn’t save Gemeni Man and Joker didn’t need China so Hollywood no longer has a reliable back up plan

They need to send a T-800 back in time to 2017, targeted on Tim Miller.

Mission success means John Connor would still live.

I enjoyed it...glossed over the SJW shit. It's there, but not near as bad as other films.
I doubt there will be another Terminator after this one though.

It is no different than CNN and MSNBC operating at a net loss or Netflix losing subscribers hand over fist or Dicks sporting goods losing millions in sales it is ideology over prophet and they will happily continue down that path undeterred.

In fact they will probably blame it on not being SJW enough and make another that is even worse.

The problem is that many people in that industry feel that every project has to make a “statement.”

Haha, fuck em.

Thing I noticed was all the media hype before it opened featured the all female cast members looking all tough and butch.

When the movie was deemed a flop, all the media showed pics of Arnold.

Even failure can be used to push a subtle message.

I avoid anything with that dick Arnold in it.  Did a bunch of bone head things while Gov.  Slipped his roided salami to his nasty house keeper, pardoned his buddy's son who was involved in a murder, and is now buddies with Greta.  He can FOAD without my few cents from his shitty acting.

Genisys was a stinker too. It's wishful thinking to blame this on the sjw crap after Black Panther and Captain Marvel made tons of money.

That's the thing. I think it's less because of SJWing it and more that it's just T1 regurgitated. They did the same thing with The Force Awakens and Star Trek (reboot). It's like you have an infinite amount of ideas and a huge range of access to writers and content and the best you can do is just thinly veil a remake of the original? I still enjoyed Dark Fate because it's a bunch of time traveling killer robots with gunplay. But ultimately it could have been much better. Fun way to kill and afternoon with my buddy though as we wanted some mindless entertainment.

"The goodwill and brand equity created by the first two Terminator films was arguably undone by the subsequent pre-Dark Fate installments, which may have negatively impacted audience interest in this latest chapter in the series,"

I'm going to give them a Dark fate solid, just make the terminator a honda 2000 and have a rapper drive it "The fast & the furious T2000" they have there audience. Hollywood has nothing good to offer, netflix can go with them.

Can't be suprised folks.

The director said this movie was made specifically to alienate it's core audience. It succeeded.

That's the director saying he does not care if fans hate the movie as long as it expresses his political message.

“Dark Fate” cost $185 million to produce. Variety reports the movie’s marketing and distribution budget was in the $80 million and $100 million range, which means the movie would have to gross in the $450 million range in order to turn a profit.

This is why I'm tired of time travel as a plot device. Nothing is ever over.
It's the ultimate deus ex machina. You just keep changing things to restart the story.
It's the apex of lazy sci-fi writing.

The most interesting take on "time travel" that I've come across lately was Gibson's last book, "The Peripheral."

I tried to enjoy the movie, but all the female leads were distracting/boring.
“I’ll be back” from Sarah Connor was enough to leave.
“We need to stand and fight” was close but still doesn’t beat T3’s “there doesn’t have to be a war”
