James Cameron’s first two instalments in the TERMINATOR franchise were landmark achievements, that have gone down as two of the greatest masterpieces in cinema history. TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES diluted that reputation slightly with a poorly written script, that undermined much of the hard work from the first two entries. Finally, TERMINATOR: SALVATION was an absolute mess, which garnered more attention from the fact that it’s main star had a minor lapse in temperament. This is also forgetting the fact that the film was shot without the inclusion of Arnold Schwarzenegger, before adding a strange CGI replacement in post-production.
Suffice to say, the upcoming TERMINATOR GENESYS has quite a lot riding on it. Although, bringing back THE Terminator is certainly a good start in regards to winning back the audiences trust in the franchise. Check out the new poster and spot below:
For long-time TERMINATOR fanatic like myself, the gorgeous poster above will no doubt give you a warm fuzzy feeling, whilst also simultaneously evoking familiar imagery from the original 1984 promotional poster. TERMINATOR GENISYS will be released in the UK on 3rd July 2015. The film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Emilia Clarke, Jai Courtney, Jason Clarke, J.K. Simmons, Byung-hun Lee, Matt Smith and Dayo Okeniyi.
