My unpopular opinion: I actually like Terminator: Salvation. The script should have skipped the “Make it PG13 and try to please everyone phase”, but it’s still an OK movie. Plus Christian Bale did a great job in that role.

The plot twist of that dead guy turning out to be partially a robot was somewhat expected, but it was still an interesting story arc. Plus it hilights what was mentioned already in the first Terminator movie: It took Skynet a while to mimic humans properly, and this is when they started to figure it out.

Yeah salvation was fine. But somehow the person making this list thought genisys was decent enough to be the only terminator sequel not on the list.

Genisys was an absolute stinker. Here they forgot everything except that PG13 commission I mentioned earlier.

My unwanted opinion. 😄 Terminator 3 isn’t too bad and I give most of it’s credit for the clever switch and bleak ending.

I watched Terminator: Salvation a few weeks ago and it’s not bad at all. The grubby Mad Max look works quite well for that universe and I also enjoyed the new designs of Terminators.

Sigh. Genisys is just a mess. The faithful recreation of the opening of the original film is the only thing going for it. Either I missed it or a major plot point is never explained (possibly left for the unmade sequels), all the hype about Matt Smith appearing in it was rather pointless and the marketing department decided to use the biggest surprise plot point in all the trailers. Oh, and Jai Courtney is a terrible Kyle.

If I had to be kind, I’d say Genisys is a solid action movie but a bad terminator film.

I’m going to watch Dark Fate again this week, I haven’t watched that since it’s opening, see how I feel about the last entry to the franchise.

Speaking of sequels, I’m happy to announce that “Barbie 2: The Search for More Money” will continue exactly where the first movie left off,

spoiler

as Barbie experiences the wonders of the American medical industry first hand and discovers that her insurance company won’t cover her yearly gynecologist exam and scrambles to find money to cover her out-of-pocket payment before it goes to collections and ruins her credit score.

(It’s based on a true story.)

Thanks Margot. I look forward to paying Mattel some of my hard-earned pennies to watch your vagina-centric harpooning of the commercialisation of medicine.

Sorry, but Thor:Love and Thunder doesn’t deserve this. I understand why some people didn’t like it, but it was not T3 bad.

I was scrolling through that going “Highlander 2 better be at the top” then I was thinking “what could be worse?” but I’ll allow that. I do have problems with Airplane 2 being in there though.

Agreed. Airplane 2 had William Shatner parodying William Shatner.
