    The Terminator series have just done too much to ruin their concept of time travel. No matter how many times the "good guys" win, skynet still has time travel to reset everything again. Eventually the story becomes a rather pointless exercise where you question why you care what happens, since it will all reset with time travel again anyway.

    Why don't they just travel back in time to kill the guy(s) who invented time travel? I forgot the plot of the series already. I just remember T2 for its action and cool effects.

    I think it looked pretty cool. I'm not sure how they explain old Arnold jumping out of the helicopter. Did he age as a cyborg?

    Well, guess I'm the only one that thought the trailer kicked ass.

    Someone on the FaceBookGrams just asked: "How in the F do you get a gray-haired cyborg?!?!?! :mad:"

    Director: Not McG. So I might be interested in this one.

    James Cameron, Where art thou?

    Looks good- will watched. Khaleese needs to hit the gym, though.

    I loved Terminator Salvation. Superb action movie. Seriously don't understand the hate.

    I think it looks great!

    Probably easy to spin; his human DNA exterior ages. They're probably going to say he got dropped into 1950 or something and had to wait.

    The living cells are alive. Presumably, the hair follicles age like normal hair follicles. Skynet isn't going to dedicate time to solving human vanity problems, like gray hair/baldness. Presumably , someone sent gray terminator way back in time, so Sarah Connor would be way ahead of the curve in this new future, where she's already killed the original terminator from the 1st film by the time Reese has arrived.

    I need to watch the trailer again but I agree. It looks like old terminator shows up during her childhood. I assume he raised her and that's why she is a badass.

    Yeah she looks different in this but damn, she still kicks ass. Been dying to see another Linda Hamilton type performance in one of these films. Hope she kicks a lot of ass. The other dude is from the Spartacus show, forgot his name?

    Looks pretty meh, kinda reminds me more of Terminator 3...but Terminator 2 is a Top 5 all time movie for me, so I'm a sucker for these. Of course I'll see it.

    I like the twist -- not sure how people can watch that trailer and think immediately that it sucks.
