Terminator Dark Fate - Its Terrible

So I guess it's finally time to review Terminator Dark Fate. Is it the worst of the series, or a bold new beginning for a tired franchise? Let's find out.

I have a script im working on. Its about twin brothers at the start of Americas involvement in WW2. They both go to join the Army but one has epilepsy and gets left behind. After all the brave men have left for war, he is left behind with mostly women, children, the elderly. At this point when most the capable men are gone....women, including his brothers Wife, begin to dissapear.... Id love to send you the rough draft/ outline!

[@timothybayliss6680]

@Crows Wit Gaming that is a comically Terrible movie that looks awful, has hard cuts and a narrative that is nearly impossible to follow. You don't get enough backstory to understand or to bother caring what the character motivations are. The acting is hollow, like the people on screen couldn't tell.if their checks were still good, the cinematography is horrid and there is hardly ever two different people talking in one shot, it cuts every couple seconds and the laser shooty fights are almost funny if they weren't supposed to be serious. I saw the trailers and thought it looked like it had potential. I wanted, badly, to like it, but I can't. It so boring, has such abrupt transitions, is so hard to enjoy it took me three times to get through it and I have only vague memories of it. Please tell me this was an ironic endorsement and that you only wanted it shredded to tatters even worse than the staff responsible for the blight that is Jupitor Ascending left on our doorstep like a flaming bag.

Edit: Just met Robert Patrick at Indiana Comic Con, showed him this comment, and he confirmed everything, adding he caught up to the dirt bike on the first take and they subsequently had to increase its speed from 13 to 15 mph. He appreciated the comments and replies and autographed my T-1000 photo with “Call to John.” I am giddy. Apparently, Robert Patrick independently trained for his role as the T-1000 to not show fatigue while running. I read somewhere he did extensive cardio on his own to build up his stamina so his character's chase scenes would look as effortless as possible. I often fall victim to looking upon the past with rose-tinted glasses, but goddammit, who does that for a role anymore?

Henry cavill did some pretty dang hard training too for his role as Superman. Got jacked quick, definitely won’t feel good in 20 years or so though Edit: for anyone wondering, no, obviously getting jacked (even quickly) isn’t by itself going to be harmful, but the routines actors like Henry Cavill do to get properly pumped beyond normality for on screen appearances is definitely more hardcore. Not as hardcore as what bodybuilders do, but more involved than what normal guys hitting the gym are doing. Neither is this as intense as what guys like Joaquin phoenix do to get sickly and thin, but it’s something.

[@oneandonlysound3453]

Also, as we moved into the middle era of those, and into the next, we got new franchises that brought about some who may also have messy franchises, but flawed doesn't mean bad automatically. Such as there's lots of great to be found in the Underworld Franchise, and Kate Beckinsale's Selene was and has always been great. While there's some depth but less effort put in, Alice played my Milla Jovovich of Resident Evil also was there. Heck, Marvel's own Black Widow (not Captain Woke). Now we got...Batwoman.

Ironically Terminator 1 and 2 are how you write the evolution of a strong female character. In Terminator 1 Sarah was a damsel in distress because she was in over her head. In T2 she had 10 years of training under her belt and didn’t just use physical strength she used her mind too. Like when she used a paperclip to free herself and used a syringe of bleach to hold a hostage.

[@user-gm4kv2my4u]

Agreed. The worst part about it is that Sara Conner WASN'T just the mother of the man that led the resistance. She wasn't the leader of the resistance. For years she WAS the fucking resistance. She was fighting the war solo. And at the end of Terminator 2 it became clear that she didn't give birth to the leader of a resistance. She saved her son from ever having to take that burden to begin with. To give away your life, your happiness, your very sanity, to save a world that has condemned you because it was the right thing to do? To spare your child a terrible burden and give him a chance to live a normal life? That is a powerful female character that's not easily matched. But Hollywood had to fucking Hollywood and ruin it all. There never should of been a sequel to T2. Ever.

[@geminiwriter8875]

If anything that ought to empower women, knowing without them, a generation of competent men and soldiers cant be brought forward. Yes it’s a risk because of all the pain and death of war, but any woman who is told their son is the non-biblical saviour of humanity itself, will have understandable and believable cause to become a soldier and a fighter. Feminists these days believe that simply being a woman is enough to empower, but you’ve got no philosophical or physical basis to build yourself on other than chromosomes and sex organs - of which femininity tried to depose before being hijacked. It’s about purpose and carrying on in a state where humanity is literally at the receiving end of domination and annihilation. Regardless of gender, whoever rises to that fight, no matter the consequence, is someone to look to.

[@Thedarkbunnyrabbit]

Terminator 3 was always underrated. It was always going to look bad because it directly followed T2, but unlike literally every other Terminator that came after it, it actually accomplished what it tried to do, and was a sequel that made sense continuing the timeline of the Terminator, without insulting the older movies. Sarah Connor lived a full life and died peacefully, John tried to move on and believe that Judgment Day had been averted, but in the end was plagued with that same paranoia his mother had, and the set up for the plot made a bit more sense to explain how a third Terminator could go back. Best of all, it set things up so that they could go into the war with Skynet without needing to come up with more excuses for time travel, as the war with the machines would be interesting on its own. T4 *tried* to be a sequel that built off of that foundation...but utterly failed in doing what it set out to do, dooming the franchise to hackneyed reboot attempts.

[@lonewolf9578]

[@stoneymahoney9106]

@@Thedarkbunnyrabbit I agree - Terminator 3 had it flaws and issues, but it was a solidly average movie. It wasn't the A+ rollercoaster of it's progenitors, so it compared badly and got a lot of stick it only kind of deserved. It takes a long time to get going, some of the action sequences are much longer than they needed to be, the T-X terminator could never have lived up to the terrifying T-1000 in either concept or Patrick's stunningly understated execution. The first half of the movie is formulaic and predictable, but then half way through the script starts to play with your assumptions and expectations, subtle hints lead to not-so-subtle hints about how this is all going to go down, and then the movie pulls another switcheroo on you right at the end - an ending that pulls the movie up from an uneven mess to a clumsily-executed but eventually intelligent story. No, it's not a masterpiece, not by a long shot. Compared to the rest of Terminator franchise, it's firmly on the right side of good-enough.

[@Thedarkbunnyrabbit]

@@stoneymahoney9106 Honestly, I think that's a pretty accurate assessment. T3 wasn't a blockbuster masterpiece like T1 and T2 are considered, so it was always not going to hold up by comparison, but it was very solid and an important transition movie to move into a different style that would no longer require rehashing 'and then another terminator was sent back somehow'. T4 didn't know WHAT it wanted to do - since they swapped out the ending at the last minute - and every other one since then has tried to be a reboot and failed horribly.

My favorite part of the movie is how the transport plane is broken into two pieces (with very different trajectories), a vehicle falls out (with a parachute), and a couple of terminators. Despite traveling across a vast area at great speed, not only do all of the parts/contents of the plane happen to land within 100 yards of each other, but they happen to land on the Hoover Dam.... Not just near the Hoover Dam, but actually the parachuted Humvee lands directly on the Hoover Dam (pretty much dead center on the span as well). I'm willing to give some leeway and suspend my disbelief to some degree, but this is about the most distracting sequence since the Fast and the Furious 6's endless runway fight where the sequence rolled out at very high speeds for 13+ minutes. That's one, very long, straight runway. Over 5 times the longest runway in the world. It's amazing how really bad this movie is, even from a mindless action movie aspect.

I've seen the original Terminator movie so many times that I could tell just by the electricity surge noise of the T-800 being crushed by Sarah Conner in the clip at the end of the video, that it was the remastered movie clip as opposed to the original. I loved Terminator 1, 2, and found the third installment tolerable because I liked the end. Judgment Day being inevitable and Arnold leading John Conner to a safe bunker to ride out the nuclear war without him knowing was a great twist in my opinion. Everything since has been trash. I had high hopes for Salvation as it took place during the war and Christian Bale playing John Conner seemed like a plus. That plot set up was the movie I wanted to see made since I was a kid who saw Terminator 2 in the theater. I was legitimately pissed off leaving the theater after Salvation, what a fucking dud. Now we get gender fluid terminators and southern border allegory. What a nonsensical cash grab this franchise has become.

I read an article, that tried to breakdown, why this movie flopped at the cinema, it went into great detail, about expectation, the franchise having let people down in the past, a laundry list of explanations, but the journalist refused to countenance the idea, that maybe, the movie was just bad. Indeed the journalist had nothing but praise for the films action scenes, it's themes etc. It's as if these people, live in some alternate reality, devoid of anything remotely identifiable as good taste or even basic sense. The film was awful. Thats why it flopped. It wasn't for any other reason, than the film being bad.

[@charlespuruncajas9663]

Obviously the journalist got paid. (It’s like for example a review of Ford vs Ferrari where the critic gave a bad criticism saying “the movie doesn’t show strong women” or the professional critics that disliked Joker because “it’s a terrorist white man movie”)

[@oneandonlysound3453]

Pretty sure I read that. And everything you said was correct. They also really didn't give enough detail about the "movie flopped at the cinema" part but there praising is why that part doesn't work either. If they'd critiqued it even if they liked it, then you could further question why Linda Hamilton returning should've helped, etc. However, you can't. It looked bad, it was bad, it is bad, and everyone saw that. While no prior terminator movie didn't at least profit. Heck, Salvation (which like 3, has actual fans) made more money than 3 even inflated, genesis, and woke fate. During a recession just hit. Proving the interest was still there, and can still be there if a "future wars" movie was actually done by people with talent and not total hacks pushing wokeism and bad writing.

The funny thing is that a Human cyborg *could* be seriously terrifiying...if the moviemakers just cared about that. Well...let's call it a she for the example. Just repower the leg-train so that she now has serious mobility. Terminators usually don't do their job by being incredibly fast but by being closely indestructible creeping machines, so yes, a Human cyborg could have the upper hand in that field. Then make her strong and adaptative enough to use all the ground facilities against the Terminator. Why not ? That Grace cyborg just wasted so much brain energy to hammer the Terminator in useless ways in the factory...just turning around it and smashing it to dangerous machine parts, or even just turning around it with a chain in order to tie it to a very sturdy building structure would be a far more clever way. Oh and train her to use firearms too. Much, much more firearms, because they just look like Terminators' kryptonite. But again, that would need real imagination. A thing all those movie-makers look seriously lacking, sadly.

When they killed Connor at the start It seemed like they were trying to distance the new film from the older films so it's not just more of the same story and characters while still showing some respect to the past at the same time. I didn't get any negative reaction to Connors death I actually liked the intro sequence. The young Connor being killed by a terminator sent from a future that will no longer happen was quite grim and was a vital part of Sarah's character. I liked this film even though it was a tiny bit stale it was still better than many new films and entertained me. Sarah could take out a terminator if she knew when it was going to appear if she used an anti tank missile or whatever. One thing I did think about while watching this film was that a terminator would do ok posing as a police man etc but why not try a tramp sitting on the targets street and walks up looking drunk and ill and old and asks for some spare change when she goes to work before cutting her head off surely that's worth a try. At the end of the film when the girl is shooting the damaged rev9 with a shotgun it could probably have held up it's hand to deflect some of the slugs back at her. Maybe it was too damaged. I liked it overall.

18:22 I think the head tilt is a throwback to Michael Myers in Halloween. Great video man!

Every time he says "Apple Genius" I piss myself laughing.

[@chrishunter8305]

well it was either that or Soy-bot 9000...but then again the resistance sent back the LGBT-1000 so, it might have gotten confusing.

I can’t stop thinking about “Carl” the sitcom.

[@donwhiteley3293]

I can't believe they took what should have been a Robot Chicken sketch and turned it into the main and supposedly very serious plot of this movie.

[@SparkingMeteor]

The fact is Carl killed John Conner this is not funny at all

[@aaronfarnsworth7653]

To me, "Carl" is waiting for Fry-lock, Meatwad and Master Shake to show up......... What do you know, they did. Old Frylock and a blended Master Shake work with Carl to save veggie Meatwad, the savior of humanity.

[@ACMCUK]

That would have been better than this film

[@PriestlyBlock67]

Im just shocked that we could have a masterpiece like the joker in 2019

[@minkya1010]

honestly that's what I've been thinking about now for weeks

[@David-bc4hh]

Joker was OVERRATED

@@David-bc4hh yeah but it's still better than 99% of the crap coming out now. So it earns that label default.

The crucial mistake was Brie Larson not being selected for the roles of Generic Teenage Girl, Androgynous Thing, Apple Genius, Sarah Connor and Carl. Woulda fixed everything.

[@TexZenMaster]

All they need to do is buy out hundreds of thousands of tickets before release so they can brag about "largest pre-ticket sales". Hell, they'll get 55% of their money back and create a buzz for the film.

[@Sentinel82]

True. If you're going to make a bad movie, why not go all the way 😂

[@one7decimal2eight]

And then she could say... Is that like a personal attack?

[@NTAD]

@@Sentinel82 What are you talking about? D: It would be the greatest movie of all time. Unparalleled in every conceivable way. I mean, the only way it could possibly surpass *_that_* level of grandeur is if she wrote, produced and directed it, too.

[@Sentinel82]

@@NTAD But would it be for 40 year old white dudes?

[@projectmonk9673]

The Feminator was clearly a man hating movie. These days, action movies are being raped by woke writers. They even neutered Arnold’s Terminator by him saying, “I do drapes.”Which is another reason why it bombed.
