Soooo happy to see 'young Arnold' in the trailer. Back when they cast that body builder as the T800 I was worried sick. I guess he's just some other Terminator, which is fine.
One thing confuses me. I originally thought that Kyle Reese would be sent back to 1984, and it originally looked like 1984, but I also saw things that looked significantly more modern than that. Does this mean that the rumors of a potential time skip for Sarah and Kyle is true?
There's the CGI young Arnold, and the middle aged Arnold (the current, regular Arnold from today) of course. But in the final frame with the chopper and 'I'll be back', Arnold has noticeably longer hair and it's all white. I'm wondering if after 1984 they pull a 'Sarah Connor Chronicles' and send Reese & Sarah further into the future to hide, while Arnold stays behind and continues to age in real time?
Is it just me? The Arnold in the Chopper looked even older then normal
Also could this technically be a sequel to Salvation? Looks like this film starts out with Connor sending Reese back, which would make sense with where Salvation ended. Maybe they're not ignoring it altogether? I don't know. I'm seeing a lot of negativity online about this but count me in.
initially i thought they were rebooting the whole thing, but like others have said, it looks like they are doing a Days Of Future Past thing here, where the timeline is going to go completely screwy.... we'll see.... it's Terminator, so i am down to see it in theater - i just hope Arnold isn't laughably bad in it.
I'm in agreement with nearly everyone on the casting of Reese and Connor. I'm unfamiliar with the Connor actor- is he any good at least?
It sure would have been cool to have Yelchin & Bale back....
What I feel wary about is this whole time jump thing. In the trailer, Sarah says, "everything has changed", yet I have a feeling that we won´t see anything new.

They pointed out many things I didn't even notice and I'm excited to see more!!!
It looks like we'll be seeing the 70's, 1984, possibly the 90's, he present and 2029 and who knows what else!!
In the original Terminator movie, Sarah and Kyle fall in love and that's where John Connor comes from.
BUT, now that Sarah supposedly knows everything, how is that going to play out??
I hope they don't make a stupid joke out of it, because I'm picturing Emilia Clarke in my head going 'Kyle, it's time. Do me NOW.' And then Arnold is in the background like 'Good. I'll be back.'
I won't know what's going on but so long as there's plenty of fights and
Explosions, I'll be happy. :))
They'll never be able to move on if they keep attached to that stone, he's not going to be in these films with any credibility, in such a crowded summer I smell a stinking big flop.
I've only just recently watch T1 & T2. Terminator is without doubt Cameron's best film, it's dark, menacing and quite terrifying if you look at it's premise, brilliantly paced and well acted.
I say acted, Arnold's very inability to act plays to it's strengths, no one can play an emotionless cyborg like him. It's his best performance and he's never topped it, the perfect role for one of the most wooden actors of all time.
Both Hamilton and Biehn are on fine form and the three performers make it fly.
Cameron without a huge budget and his best screenplay aided by Brad Fiedel's terrific score all add together to make it a 5 star masterpiece, it would have been enough just on it's own but a sequel was inevitable.
As for T2, a great popcorn flick it is but doesn't measure up to it's predecessor. Robert Patrick makes a great big bad but not as terrifying as Arnie's original. Having Arnie play the good guy seemed interesting at the time but it's just an example of him having to be the hero and capitalise on his box office appeal. I certainly prefer him as the villain.
Hamilton all pumped is good but Furlong's performance can venture into the irritating and the film reverts at times to remaking the original despite some entertaining set pieces. The climax is a more ambitious version of it but surprisingly not as thrilling. To be honest from the moment I saw it at the cinema I had the same opinion, while it was one of the most electrifying cinema visits of my earlier years due to the audiences reaction and the atmosphere I thought then and still do now that just like the Alien franchise the first is the best.
