I'm not understanding the timeline here. Emilia is about Sarah's age in the first movie, Kyle being sort of the same, but then we've got John Connor cast as well, but that could be future John, so it could still be the first movie.... but with an old T-800? So if it's a soft reboot of the first movie, where does the old T-800 come in? Has it been there since Sarah was a kid protecting her? If so, why send Kyle?
Trying to figure out the timeline is making my head hurt...
Yeah, I would love for it to be great, but I think it can't happen. The first Terminator was a sorta low budget 80's action flick, with a cool story. T2 was a higher budget early 90's action flick. But action movies have changed so much since then, so making a 00's or 10's type action movie of Terminator just doesn't work. And making a 90's type, or 80's type action flick today wouldn't work either, it would be perceived as cheesy.
Just look at Total Recall and Robocop reboots, completely different movies, just cause an action flick in 2010+ is so much different from the 80's and 90's.
T-1000 being inferior to the T-1000? come again? only way to kill the T-1000 was to literally melt it, it got shattered into a million pieces, riddles with bullets and grenades. T-X had... boob powers? Yeah I know, it had weapons in it's hands, but how many times can they be used before they run out of fuel? If T-X had laserguns from the first 2 movies (in the future), then... maybe, but I think the almost indestructible T-1000 still would be superior.
