    Nope.
    They've made her androgynous for the flick for some reason, but here she is all girled up.

    Wow that really is a big difference between the two pictures. They should have left her looking more feminine. Seriously I thought that was a guy in the picture when I first saw it.

    Why? Why does a killer robot need to look feminine?

    Because if it's female and if it's trying to blend in than looking like a Justin Bieber clone will get in the way of its mission.

    It's a terrible picture.

    So every time you see a non-cisgendered person going about their business you think they don't blend in and are a killer robot?

    :shrug: I would have thought the person in the middle was male as well.

    But the sex of the character is totally irrelevant. I just want to know if they're finally going to tell a decent story?

    Either those are some healthy looking moobs for a build of male that wouldn't normally sport them, or that's just a flat-chested woman.
    Odds are, men with this build ain't gonna have breasts.
    I think it's the lack of bra straps that are throwing all y'all off.

    Someone missed the third movie. The hot bitch in that one was the new terminator. In the second one the t1000 could be anyone. You make the mistake to think the hot woman is a human and next thing you know you get your hard on lopped off by some crazy metal woman. Also, the terminators were made to blend in with humans to accomplish their mission. Hence the one that is safe would be the crazy looking person who sticks out and dogs don't bark at.

    Am I the only one who looked at Linda Hamilton and thought she was sporting the Carol look from TED.

    Then I was hit with the thought of who was better suited to kick ass in the apocalypse. Is it the mother of the future who was one of the first women to pull off the kick ass fighter and lay waste to the apocalypse of robot warriors, or was it the other normal woman who went Rambo in the apocalypse and could lay waste to herds of undead or your local cannibals in their own hometown?

    Then I thought wouldn't it be really cool if Sarah Carol, and Ripley were all going around from planet to planet in a vagina ship hunting cyborg undead aliens, and could the predators keep up? It was about that point where the ripping sound of my underwear tent giving way to the tension started and I figured I could never see such a film In the theater.

    And Halt and Catch Fire, which is the only place I'd seen her before this.

    A good video on the Terminator timeline up to Genisys.
    His theory plugs up the missing holes with that T-5000 went back, and erased T2, waited for the original future of T1 to happen, and then messed with Kyle Reese's transport, and then sent T-3000 (assimilated John Conner) to 2014, and T-1000 to the 70's.
    AND, then John's wife, Kate Brewster (from T3 and T4) sent "Pops", to the 70's to fix everything.
    Given that there'll never be Genisys sequels, I'm going with it.

    James Cameron fucked up the universe with t2, but I forgive him.

    However, the spaghetti drawing that is the universe after genesis is clearly evidence of string theory and that the flying spaghetti monster is clearly the God of that universe.

    Nice, but one of their ideas about the problem with the original is wrong. Skynet would not necessarily have information about Kyle from the police department shrink who interviewed him in the original movie timeline. This probably is because the guy who created it is either a millennial who thinks we always had digital records, or he just is not aware it took years to digitize records from the non digital days, and with the y2k thing already prophesied by the tech industry there was a bigger delay in transfer of video to digital. And also it might be assumed that during the attack on the precinct the t800 destroyed the tapes because they were in a police station for when they burned.

    This is not to mention skynet became self aware during a time when archived local info would not have had the bandwidth to be downloaded or even the ability to transfer large quantities of vhs from archives to digital format. Especially if you consider the mass of video interviews of crazy people. The damage of nuclear fire to towns and possibly archives along with the electromagnetic charges from a worldwide nuclear war probably would have ruined most vhs archives of local police and mental health facilities.

    The original movie covered its ass here. Kyle explains that most records were destroyed and skynet only knew where Sarah lived and nothing about the father of John. This means that the records never made it to skynet. This would actually fit into the initial timeline. The problem with the first movie is how were John and skynet created to cause judgment day in the first place if skynet created itself through research based on the original skynet. However, since the first movie never explains skynet origin Cameron's explanation in 2 does not have to be true. We could have created an ai that we let lose and it destroyed the world. Skynet never had to know it existed in the past nor send technology back to create itself. It still leaves the initial timeline intact so Kyle could be sent back because the reason Kyle went back was not linked to a paradoxal creation like skynet was in the second movie. Maybe someone else sees a hole I don't see in the original.

    I love the second movie. I saw it over seven times in the theater and have to have seen it over a hundred or so times. Cameron made a great action movie and it has a huge time hole that 3 tried to correct, and the rest just kept making worse. I will watch the new one because I like them, but Cameron made a good movie you have to just go with.

    Hmm. Not sure if this is the direction they should be going with the franchise.

    Oh, and from the same scene descriptions (won't spoil what he described) but Grace is indeed some kind of Terminator.
    Still banking on her being a human hybrid like Marcus from Salvation.
    Otherwise why does she have a name instead of a designation?
