I don't get it, is this a parody or something?

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

If you're talking about the shot where he "arrives" (rises), it looks lifted from the 1984 original... not re-created in CG. Re-used footage. They just changed the BG behind him a bit...

From T1 1984:

From Trailer:

Pretty sure that's CG. Trying to use the old footage while changing the lighting and background to match would be more work than just CGing the whole thing.

 

[Clevinger]

Who's Doctor Who playing in this?

 

[DerZuhälter]

I'm just going to watch it for young CG Arnold.
Dump this entire series if you can't give me young Arnie.

 

[strafer]

Place looks the same.

 

[evilromero]

So from a 2 second clip of her firing a pistol, a flinch and her, height? weight?, you've come to the conclusion that she can't portray someone who can take care of herself? Strange, but ok, opinions.



Not sure about the second but but this first bit seems right to me. We don't quite know where "old-t800" came from yet. Unless I'm also missing something?

Old T-800 was probably still active after T3 and was sent back in time again. Possibly. I have no idea. Is T3 part of the official canon?

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

I figure the image quality and sequence of the older footage probably wouldn't mesh with what's being shot for that scene now, hence the recreation.

 

[Escape Goat]

Place looks the same.

If you squint just a bit you can see The Rocketeer in the background.

 

[Paganmoon]

Place looks the same.

Why is old Ahnold walking in from the same place young Ahnold did in the first movie?

 

[EBE]

Place looks the same.

yes, its Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles. and it looks cg to me in the trailer

 

[G-Fex]

hahahahaha

still totes better than Jurassic World's trailer.


Plus seeing storm shadow as T-1000 is awesome, it's good to see T-1000 again.

 

[Nikodemos]

Too bad they showed the "I'll be back" line already. Should've kept that under wraps and see the theater explode.

Modern trailers tend to show too much of the film in the mistaken belief that it'll make it more appealing to potential viewers.

 

[EroticSushi]

Why is old Ahnold walking in from the same place young Ahnold did in the first movie?

That's what I'm trying to figure out. Old Arnold has apparently been waiting for the Young Arnold for a while, which is why it's flesh has aged. Old Arnold destroys young Arnold resulting in an altered timeline. Where Old Arnold came from, no one knows yet.

From T1 1984:

From Trailer:

Pretty sure that's CG and the lighting is awful. I mean I'm no expert but it seems obvious. Looks like a bad photoshop cut and paste.

 

[Surface]

Looks funs, Week one for sure.

 

[Escape Goat]

Maybe he turned around.

 

[evilromero]

You know, watching the trailer again I have to say this would've been a great premise for T3 had Cameron still been able to make it back in the 90s. So it's kind of bitter sweet to see some cool ideas executed so poorly with some truly horrible acting and special effects.

 

[Jigorath]

I don't know if its fair to judge someone's performance from a trailer but Emilia Clarke was really making me cringe. She's not really conveying the assertiveness I think the role requires. And poor Arnie, he just looks tired.

 

[MisterFalcon]

Why is old Ahnold walking in from the same place young Ahnold did in the first movie?

And then another Ahnold appears, sent by Skynet to stop the one sent by the rebels to stop the original sent by Skynet. And another. And another.

Cut to end credits.

 

[Gambit 1138]

Everyone keeps complaining about the girl but she actually looks like Linda from original film. I feel like some people in this thread have never even watched the first terminator film.

I'm not so sure people are complaining about her looks so much as her inability to act.

 

[NullPointer]

 

[Zantetsuken]

Get out of the choppa!

 

[EroticSushi]

Took longer than I expected.

 

[.la1n]

Will watch for Arnold and Byung-hun Lee.

 

[evilromero]

It's her horrible delivery of every line in the trailer. Not how she looks, though she does look less athletic and hardened than Hamilton from T2.

 

[PsychBat!]

Yeah that's really what people are having a problem with.

No, not really.
Edit: Shit, my sarcasm detector is messed up today.

I didn't see a vespa anywhere in this trailer. This movie is ruining my childhood.

 

[strafer]

Old Arnold should have arrived after Young Arnold and then steal the clothes Young Arnold stole from the punks.

 

[EBE]

im going to watch Avatar 2 multiple times now. at least Cameron knew where to leave well enough alone.

What?

 

[evilromero]

Also, Kyle Reese looks way too beefy in this. I always imagined (from scenes of the future war) that everyone was starving and emaciated.

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

The smudge (plastic) appearance looks more like heavy-handed DNR to me. Who knows.

You're right, it does look like they DNR the heck out of the original Arnold and lightened it.

 

[RustyNails]

The second one is clearly CGI, pretty bad CGI.

If you want to talk about how CG scenes look in trailers compared to final version, head on over to the Jurassic World thread. Its not that uncommon.

 

[EBE]

What?

that is to say, this looks awful.

Spoiler

i'll still go see this though... i guess

 

[enzo_gt]

So awful. I don't know the female lead's name but she doesn't appear to be able to act.

Cringeworthy with the Ill Be Back at the end too, like a desperate attempt at saving the rest of the trailer.

 

[Nokterian]

dat thread title change just noticed it.

 

[Castef]

They didn't do a very good job of selling this movie to people.

Not-at-all. Trailer is simply awful, John Connor is... Uh... I can't find the proper adjective.

A Terminator brings the rifle to its eye in order to aim...

Awful.

 

[Rentahamster]

Asian T-1000 huh? Neat.

I'm actually a little intrigued about how they handle the timeline changing/reboot/remake effect.

I'm still expecting the movie to overall be a turd, though. Don't want to get my expectations high. Or up. At all.

[Pixels]

LOL @ the end! LOL!!!

 

[ryutaro's mama]

This seems extremely unnecessary...

Just ride the T2 black highway into the credits with me.

You'll feel better.

You can even ride with Sarah away from La Tormenta if you like.

 

[Anung]

They should make it even more meta and send someone back to stop this film from happening.

 

[strafer]

And is this suppose to be Arnold and Sarah?

 

[zma1013]

It must suck to be a biker in the Terminator universe, always getting your clothes and bike stolen and shit.

 

[Delta Assault]

And is this suppose to be Arnold and Sarah?

I imagine it'd have to be, yeah.

Nice. They turned Arnold into Squall

 

[Jackpot]

The guy who plays old Connor is a really bad fit.

The time travel room from the Terminator 3 video game was much more awe-inspiring;
