Terminator Zero (2024) | Official Teaser Reaction

[@RKErlinger]

Production IG is the studio behind the entire Ghost in the Shell anime (movies and tv shows) - which def is an inspired choice

[@TheGreatDevlin]

I think Hollywood heard the news that Comicpop was starting a new show for trailers and wanted to give content to the *leaders of the zeitgeist.* That's the only way I can fathom Terminator not being put in the ground for 15 years after the last attempt.

[@catlawyerwilldefendfortrea6038]

Sal: My bones are secretly metal endoskeleton" Tiff: (suspicious)

[@hobartpaving8986]

‘Zero’ is an often-used Japanese convention for a prequel.

[@DanV900]

Timothy Olyphant is voicing the Terminator in the show and the fact that it is set in Japan makes it more interesting. We aren’t just dealing with the same people over and over again.

[@bassplayer807]

@@DanV900 The Connor story got old, apart from TSCC, but I didn’t like Dark Fate, only thing that was cool was Carl, and the REV-9….. Grace was less impressive than Marcus Wright, they should have made Grace like an I-950 infiltrator from the comics.

[@thetrin]

Production IG has a long history as a studio. Theyre most famous for Ghost in the Shell, but they also have done some of my absolute favorite films, including all three Patlabor movies, and Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade (an absolutely brilliant film)

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

Production I.G? Eh, if you're gonna make an anime about Terminator, get the people behind Ghost in the Shell. The 2D Animated Terminator and releasing it on Judgement Day has my attention. Even though this franchise has been mostly deathly quiet, I am happy to see it's never truly gone. This franchise is still out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever. And hey. Anime on the channel!

[@TevyaSmolka]

Same here

[@shubhpatel619]

Didnt expect Terminator to get an anime made by the Ghost in the shell of all studios which is really cool

[@anthonywheeler2082]

Production I. G. also made Dead Leaves. An hour long insane action sci-fi anime. Highly recommend checking it out.

[@ricardorios2355]

It’s from one of the writer’s of The Batman: Mattson Tomlin. He’s also writing the sequel.

[@DomovoiJr]

“I’ve been burned by this franchise so many times I daren’t dream.” Yeah, that’s where I’m at with Jurassic Park/World lol.

[@Ducaso]

That comparison is pretty much it on the nose, for both franchises. The first two in each franchise were good movies, and then the quality never really recovers.

[@TevyaSmolka]

Terminator getting a anime is really awesome

[@Logan7281X]

Another trailer reaction? Cool. Thanks for the show. Y'all are great.

[@themilkman5004]

The animation studio is Production IG. They just worked on some small stuff like Ghost in the shell, End of Evangelion and FLCL. Mattsom Tomlin was uncredited onThe Batman

[@DanV900]

Mattson Tomlin who co-wrote The Batman has said it is going back The Terminator with the horror. It is set in Japan with a woman being sent back from 2022 to stop a terminator from killing a man who is developing an AI that is competing with Skynet. I’m very excited for it.

[@brianadkins3880]

It's already in theaters but Tiffany might like watching the trailer for LongLegs. If you all haven't seen it of course.

[@cladladd]

“Terminator Zero” fitting title, it’s exactly how much interest I have in any terminator sequel.

[@Ka_Five]

My favorite Terminator sequel is Cybernetic Dawn, a story I've never personally read, but watch the Back Issues of any time I finish watching Terminator 2

[@matthewterlaga3022]

Love to see you guys give a shout-out to Scavengers Reign, an amazing show that’s not getting enough love or attention, if enough people watch it Netflix has said they’d be willing to fund a second season.

[@DanV900]

Did you ever read Terminator: 2029 to 1984? That was a great comic even though I could see people not like a certain twist. I did really like The Burning Earth. Robocop vs Terminator which I know you have covered is a lot of fun, but Frank Miller didn’t care about the lore at all.

[@fearnloathingingeneral]

First person I thought of was Sal lol

[@Hi_Just_Fred]

I liked Terminator Resistance!! Ik Tiffany is more the game enthusiast but I think it's genuinely a really neat companion piece to the first 2 movies. Hope this anime is much the same.

[@flywheelshyster]

ah whaaaaaa....wait a min....an anime? that could really work for terminator...oh just to say in reference to mentioning being marveled out on the last trailer watch, that doesn't mean I don't enjoy you watching them and discussing, usually it means I like your stuff more because if its something i'm never going to see I can at least get the zeitgeist from yall, you know what I mean i think. so uya enjoying the reactions

[@eqs1782]

This seems cool definitely gonna give it a watch

[@stcsuntzucreed]

Production IG is working on it? So worst case scenario is it will look spectacular at least..

[@sunnydub107]

Had no idea this was happening and am not disappointed by the trailer. Love the hat btw.

[@taylors1369]

have y'all seen the trailer for watchmen animated?

[@MCLegoboy]

It's amazing how you two have randomly gotten something new to talk about each week for a reaction series that wasn't supposed to even really be anything. What strange and/or wonderful thing will happen for next week? Someone's clearly looking out for your guys, let's hope they don't stop!

[@ro4eva]

"Who asked for this?" Well, many have desired a more horror-themed Terminator entry, absent of stupid jokes as well as not completely dependent on action. For it was the menacing terror in T1 that began the IP, and deeply impacted audiences around the world.

[@SojiFro_0]

Review for the show coming soon?

[@VanCantian01]

Never watched the movies, I know cultural baffoon right here but damn that looks/sounds interesting. Love you sliding into reactions XD Hope to much more. Good luck with the show Sal.

[@DanV900]

Watch the first 2 movies! It is all you need. The Sarah Connor Chronicles show is great.

[@VanCantian01]

@@DanV900 Thanks 😊🙏🏾

[@DanV900]

@@VanCantian01 You’re welcome! You don’t have to watch the show even though I loved it. The first 2 movies are absolutely must watches. There is no need to see the others.

[@mementomori771]

It'd be helpful if you guys posted a link to the video you're reacting to ❤

[@comicpopreturns]

Try the endscreen link or the one during the video!

[@fcm3d]

Nice me and Sal thought the same.

[@saberbabe277]

I totally thought animatrix also when I seen this looks fun

[@alexoram]

Cool hat Tiff.

[@JasonEvans-j4c]

Has there ever been any exploration of who invented time travel technology? Seems like there's been a crazy amount of focus on the development of the ai hardware/software and the cyborg tech but nothing about what both sides have been trying to use to win for 6 movies and tv series.

[@DanV900]

We know Skynet did it with Kyle Reese mentioning that Skynet sent the terminator back and then he volunteered. Then the opening of Genesys started with what James Cameron wanted the opening of T2 to be with the storyboards where the Resistance discovers it. In the Sarah Connor Chronicles, we find out in the pilot how someone was sent back in time who knew how to do time travel with the technology available. That person would have had to figure it out by studying Skynet’s time machine.

[@Hi_Just_Fred]

Basically skynet created time travel in a desperate attempt to destroy the human resistance before it was ever formed. It's not seemingly a human creation just something they appropriated after finally winning the future war just trying to prevent it from ever happening to begin with.

[@TheNewBloodDan]

I mean it exists. And honestly I don’t think it could get worse.

[@manuelvilar2242]

There is still the Watchmen Trailer.

[@martyparty7086]

Honestly I’d just listen to yall doing movies reviews if y’all would want to

[@MattCamara_]

I don't mind Rise of the Machines.

[@kromlok]

Tiff should check out dorohedoro.

[@tatsumidavis3257]

I think the series has to much an emphasis on judgment day, I’d like to see a story set even further then the future setting with ideas and characters drastically removed from the past events

[@grkpektis]

I hope this is hardcore horror not another generic Terminator action story

[@DanV900]

Mattson Tomlin has said the show is going back to the horror roots of The Terminator. I wouldn’t think it’s hardcore horror, but that is a better direction.

[@Hulkzilla0]

Oh yeah an anime Terminator is happening.

[@bihansiceclone]

comicpop reacts

[@shreyanshdas7481]

I thought this was transformers zero.

[@bierguy3033]

Comment for algorithm.

[@IanMcGarr]

Massive T1/T2 fan, I love the look but hate the animation style. It just looks a bit clunky or janky. I can't put my finger on it. (I don't watch animes so that's probably it, I'm not used to it.)

[@jollyrouger2945]

I’d like a terminator were sky net sends back a terminator to stop the rebels from stoping skynet from being made. Unlike in T2 it would be the literal inverse a Terminator sent to kill a time traveling rebel hunting the programer that codes skynet
