James Cameron can now focus on the Alita Cinematic universe 😋
Too bad its not his IP and he will make Avatar movies till he's 80.
ACU - I like it :)
@@millabasset1710 except it is, and he personally owns the rights on movie adaptations. Yukito Kishiro sold it to him in 2004.
Yeah, he can make other directors busy on it and say hello on the set. 'Cause Avatar ain't stopping yet.
Btw, I enjoyed Dark Fate. I don't give a dusty fuck to what Cameron thinks about it, dude can be wrong too.
@@millabasset1710 Cameron can hire other sci-fi writers like Laeta Kalogridis to write for the ACU.
I hope he throws all his energy and dedication into the Alita sequel as soon as possible. Far better than working with franchises that are past their prime or never took off.
Too bad, he'll be busy on Avatar sequels for the next couple of years. At least he won't flip flop on his appreciation of Terminator movies anymore with no more Terminator movies in sight, and hopefully he stops ranting against other great movies like Wonder Woman like a jealous bitch.
@@asch7906 Assuming he puts the effort and love into the Avatar sequels as he seems to be doing, he'll fight hard for the movies he wants to make.
I saw Dark Fate, and honestly it had NONE of the the tension or suspense from the first 2 movies. T2 is pretty much a masterpiece action movie.
Dark Fate was constantly treading on nostalgia to keep people interested, and it just plain failed at it. Which bums me out, because I like Makenzie Davis, Linda Hamilton and Arnold as actors.
I was really, REALLY hoping for a return of T2's Sarah Connor. That Sarah Connor felt like she could have walked into a room full of terminators and been the last one standing.
@@wjrneo2 The budget would've gone through the roof like the Irishman just to have a younger Linda from T2. Not feasible. It's decent given the odds and they should stop there. As for tension, I found the Rev-9 pretty scary in his own right, blending among humans like no Terminator before and tracking his prey insanely fast. Mackenzie Grace and Natalia Reyes
should've been given more to work with, sadly.
@@asch7906 You mis-understand me. I'm not talking about de-aging Linda Hamilton.
I'm talking about the characters attitude and force of will. The rage and fear that drove Sarah. Both T2 and T4's Sarah would have walked into a room full of terminators if it meant killing them. But the difference is T2's Sarah would have done it despite the fear. T4's Sarah sums up the blasé attitude on the bridge scene when she replies "I'll be back." without any real emotion.
You can see the Sarah Connor I'm talking about in the beginning of them movie when they play the T2 clip from the metal hospital.
The Rev-9 sucks. Its not terrifying in the least. Sure it blended into human society, but so did the T1000. Except, the T1000 was psychological. In the metal forge it stabs her in the shoulder to torture her to call for John.
This movie lacked any sort of suspense or thrill.
Personally I have no interest in an Avatar sequel. But Cameron is hell-bent on it obviously.
Terminator terminated.... Lets keep supporting our Angel Alita for the Sequels!! Thank you very much Doc for another Great Repair!!! Go Alita!!!
So:
James Cameron - likes how the production for Alita went and loves the film.
Yukito Kishiro - loves the film and sees Rosa as perfect for the Alita role.
Robert Rodriguez - loves Alita and would love to make a sequel.
Ed Skrein - loves the movie and wants to play as Zapan again.
Rosa Salazar - loves the film and wants to be Alita Again 🍫🍊🍫
I hope it happens AlitaArmy ☺️☺️☺️
Don't forget: Audience LOVES Alita world-wide
@@redmoonbloodmoon3161 True Indeed ☺️ 🍫🍊🍫
So many positives I cant see why James Cameron wouldn't greenlight an Alita sequel
Cameron should never have hired Miller. Ryan Reynolds fired him from Deadpool 2 for a reason.
Were almost reaching 150,000 sign for making Alita battle angel 2. Let’s keep supporting alita
What they did with the T800 in Dark Fate was just about the stupidest thing that they ever could have done with the character. Shame on them.
Someone suggested: "I wanna see a sitcom with Arnie trying to hide his Terminator identity from his family." xD
Terminator: Dark Fate makes Terminator 3: Rise of The Machines and Terminator: Salvation look like masterpieces.
Can't wait for Alita 2.
And 3
I don't care about the Terminator franchise since Salvation.
But I want an Alita sequel and I do hope it will be good!
I stopped caring about Terminator after T2.
@Beau James oh yeah the alien franchise and terminator both should have ended with the second film.
Do they realized? ALITA is the only movie that fans fight for a sequel? How come they just ignoring it? Does any movies has the same support and massive signatures ?
Nothing! No one!
But only ALITA!
I hope they wake up soon
And start responding to die hard fans!
I'm just happy that Cameron loved working on Alita and didnt like working on the new Terminator.
Terminator is a good franchise, yeah but it's outdated. Arnold is way too old for the whole "Terminator" type of thing. IF there is gonna be a next Terminator movie it should be "Terminator: Battle of the Elderly" or something along those lines.
Cameron should rather focus on a bright future with Alita Battle Angel sequels; Fans, us, the Alita Army OBVIOUSLY LOVED the movie and the universe he co-created so I'm just praying that he uses the release of Avatar 2 to promote his first Alita sequel.
There’s no way he could have fully committed 100% to Terminator, between Avatar, and Alita he was way too busy, no human could do it, I mean there was no way possible for him to even be the director for Alita, his main passion is Avatar, and he chose that over Alita when he decided which one to do first, and as far as Terminator it was his idea to come back to it, but again he was only also a Producer on Dark Fate, same as Alita, the only Director role he has is with Avatar, I feel like Jim would need to be some form of Artificial General Intelligence to act as Director on all three and commit 110%
Alita was trash
@@vcoop7881 Sure buddy; You tell that to yourself and feel good xD
@@ZensuiEdits look dummy do you honestly think this kiddie ass movie alita compares to avatar, terminator 1 or 2, titantic, the aybss. & even with just T1 & T2 its still shiting on the alita franchise
Without Arnold there is no terminator and Arnold is aged but like he said in genisys he’s old not obsolete. Arnold’s the T-800 he can live up to 120 years. That’s why they took the Sarah Connor chronicles off the tv air because of low interest. The show had low interest because Terminator is Arnold you can’t do it without him.
James Cameron is clearly stating the he doesn't want to be near this dumpster fire.,,,🤯🔫
He made Avatar.. He isn't qualified anymore to determine what a good story is.
Tim Miller has also stated that it was not his fault if Dark fate bombed. Miller hinted it was the fault of "mysoginists".
@@leonardeuler9592 Tim Miller's a pathetic soy boy like Rian Johnson and JJ Abrams. If Alita had bombed, James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez would have taken it like grown ass men, not snivelling boys.
Cameron and Rodriguez in Alita is like Lucas and Spielberg in Indiana Jones, true collaboration, not just stamping his name like in Terminator😕
Rosa Salazar asks Alita fans to buy the Blue Rays. I bought my 26 Alita Blue Rays 3 Collector Edition and 6 Steelbooks and my buddy bought 17 BlueRays and 2 Collector Editions, If we want Alita 2, then you buy all the Alita products you can get. #Alitaarmy #RosaSalazar #Alitawin
Appreciate your hard work mate, Alita forever!!!!!!!
The reason Alita did better was because as a film it was an original. Terminator is another sequel in a franchise.
Alita also did better because it’s just a far superior movie.
Doc Ido I have a feeling that those who attacked Cameron for critizing Wonder Woman - not that they did not do it earlier - are dancing with joy over how Dark Fate turns out at the box office. I am sure that Cameron feels like the architect who designed a good building, but the builders decided to mess up his plans and built something nowhere like how it's intended, and the architect still gets blamed for a sub-standard building nonetheless.
That said, somehow I feel that the Terminator story inherently does not offer adequate creative headroom to expand very far: the later installments were like giving the IP another squeeze in the hope of getting a full cup. My fear is that Avatar might fall into the same situation and would run out of steam much sooner than Cameron hoped.
Alita is different though, because the story's expansive universe has already been established by Kishiro and proved to work.
I can't believe the petition jumped up that high over just a week! This community really is growing at a fast pace.
They should just terminate Terminator franchise. Terminator 2: Judgement Day was the perfect end to the franchise.
We need to become Skynet and say to this franchise "You're Terminated!"
Judgement Day is the end of the franchise. Everything after it are only fanfics written by mediocre nobodys.
Robert Rodriguez should've directed Terminator Dark fate.
Nelson Villegas YESSSSSSSssss!!!! I’ve been thinking that since I saw a pic of him next to Gabriel Luna attending TDF together, Robert Rodriguez is a way better Director than Miller, now I see why Deadpool 2 dropped Miller, but I feel if James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez collaborated like they did with Alita, then TDF would have succeeded, hell they could of even got the VFX team from Alita to do the effects for the REV-9, WETA digital would have made this movie epic...... we have yet to see a Terminator movie post T2 with Alita, and Avatar 2 type effects, it’s possible, I wish some creative team interested in this franchise could bring that to life.
James Cameron can not be the victim of this anymore. He could wrote the script but he decided to let other profit off his franchise
I agree after looking into stories of Tim Miller and seeing how there was backlash in the studio, Cameron can not be the one to blame for TDF Box Office results, my finger is pointed at Tim Miller, Cameron probably would have gave the movie an extra 40 min to develop characters better and give better explanations to things, I mean if he was directing this it would have made its money back already regardless of the way they handled John, I think Sarah would have been Dani’s main protector, and then if something bad happened to Sarah then Grace steps in, idk I just feel like Jim could have made a better movie if he was sitting in the Director chair, I still think he should have kept the REV-9 and it’s abilities
Terminator 1 & 2 is probably my favorite double feature ever. The 1st one was a completely new take on the horror genre and was legit terrifying. Arnold was an unstoppable force and I believed it as a viewer. Terminator 2 was like the Matrix before the Matrix. Groundbreaking. Better CGI than 2019 movies to go with a great plot. Hamilton was so badass in 2, but she didn't magically get that way with no backstory like you see in this new terminator. Terrible villain, dumb way to shoe horn in women to be the new protector and savior, total rip off of the 2nd films plot, ohhhh yea, and they totally ruined and made the first two films nonsensical by killing John. Cameron isn't tweeting because of that and only that. Miller fucked the entire canon and made the first two essentially worthless now that John is a meaningless character. Get woke go broke baby, keep on laundering that money hollywood
Alita's our lady!.. Sequel guaranteed Doc!
Thanks for your videos doc
alita is beating dark fate in the box office
James should have never let Tim Miller direct Terminator, Miller just KILLED the franchise in the FIRST 5 MINUTES, I'm a huge Terminator fan and I not gonna see that crap, totally different to ALITA, that not only Cameron was deeply involve, Robert and EVERYBODY there were always looking the advises of Cameron and he was on set several times even go to show the set to Yukito Kishiro himself......and the reception also so different, Fans of GUNNM were super happy and positive with the results of the live action and support the shit out of Alita since day 1....while now Terminator fans are RANTING AND HATING this film, Dark Fate slap all us in the face just in the opening of the film, I never heard of that before (Iron Man 3 have that reaction on me but only in the middle of the film, not in the first 5 minutes) Dark Fate is a disgrace, Alita is on a whole other TIER compared with that, so sad Terminator Dark Fate was this bad, they bring back Linda Hamilton just for ruin the franchise in the same film T.T.
Tim Miller is to Terminator franchise what Zach Snyder is to the DCEU...
How do make a good movie and promote strong female chars.
= be likable. Don't shit on your male characters. Be respectful to potentials existing established lore.
= alita 10 out of 10.
Dsrk fate however commits every single sin... Miller insinuated that we were a bunch of sexists. And gender swapping John conner to pander is fucking vile.
Dark fate was abysmal and insulting.
That’s what I will never understand, pander to who? I mean the ones being pandered fo aren’t even supporting the film. Nobody with half a brain needed a box office bomb to determine this as Terminator was always for guys, women by in large don’t care about movies like this, clearly.
Then to crap on what little viewership you had in the fans by calling them misogynistic was the dark fate Miller placed on this movie.
Hollywood has lost their minds trying to solve a #metoo problem that they created themselves. When will they learn from the numbers? Facts don’t care about feelings, especially fake ones.
Cameron doesn't support this movie,that's very obvious. Dying for more Alita !! Dark Fate was crap,I saw it.
Rotten Tomato can no longer be trusted. Alita 2 please!
they crapped on T2 and and im sure that angered a lot of fans. apparently as a stand alone movie its a good popcorn flick but the same can be said about all the other terminator sequels.
muh nostalgia
They tried a future film called Salvation and it didn’t work cause the fans bitched then, so I feel like Terminator fans don’t know WTF they want
Cameron needs to focus on both Avatar and Alita. Mostly focused on the Avatar sequels so that if it becomes successful( hopefully), Alita will have a sequel.
@Kasun Mendis why dont you think marvel fans will watch Avatar 2?
@Kasun Mendis if that is the case, Marvel fans are truly petty. A guy just gave his 'opinion' (yes his opinion), and they act like he's worse than the guy who made pedophile jokes *coughcough* James Gunn. Some of these Marvel fans are funny
@Kasun Mendis terminator and Alita stand on their own. One movies failure isnt going to affect another. And Alita is making a profit with home sales and merchandise. As for Avatar 2, they have Disney's marketing machine to make it a success. Disney has too much invested into Avatar to just let it flop
And my mistake, you're right. Not all Marvel fans are a joke, only the petty ones who got extremely hypersensitive over one man's opinion are funny. The mature fans are cool though
It somewhat alleviated my concerns that he could destroy Alita with some woke sequel.
He won't. And besides Alita is as 'woke' as it gets surprisingly enough (setting, character and background characters can attest to that) and they still didn't like it. Hell the main character is played by a fucking Latina and the media still lambasted it and shilled for Captain Marvel instead. Hypocrites.
I thought Dark Fate was better than the other 'sequel's. But it was just more of the same old stuff. I don't think we need more Terminator movies.
Looks like he most likely won't trust Tim Miller again, Robert Rodriquez might be his go-to for if he wants someone to direct one of his projects...
Looks like?
James Cameron will never work with Miller again. Ever.
@@jesserochon3103 what he needs to do is re-release it like he did Avatar, but instead of adding scenes, just cut the movie to be closer to his vision and get rid of the things he compromised with Miller on.
@@Kenneth45 xD He would need to remake it from the ground up. And I'm pretty sure Cameron is fed up with this franchise....
@@nightmareTomek Not really, it was said by Cameron that him and Miller had arguments and disagreements over the editing of the film. Most likely footage exists of alternate takes on certain scenes that Cameron liked more but ended up compromising with Miller on. And also one BIG improvement to the film could be done purely with existing footage, simply rearranged. I would say it here, but I want to make a video on it so... lol. If you watch the director's cut of Terminator 2, you'll see the difference simple editing can do. Other than the chip reprogramming scene that was cut, everything else was cut for good reason making the theatrical cut better than the "Director's Cut" which is kind of a misleading name since Cameron agreed on the final theatrical cut being what he ended up wanting to show... The Abyss and Aliens are opposite, the extended cuts are definitely superior to the theatrical cut.
@@Kenneth45 You shouldn't say "everything was cut for good reason" as if only your opinion is allowed to be the correct one. If you don't wanna have a conversation, then go write on your wall instead of on youtube.
I don't agree with you. The Directors Cut is far better, these additional scenes show a lot of depth. And don't project your opinion on Cameron.
For Terminator Dark Fail you could surely do some recutting and turning that garbage film into somewhat mediocre. But no way it can be an excellent film without rewriting the story and reshooting everything.
I'm down for another Alita sequel
Finally, some Alita news, thanks Doc.
There was a time when you didn't need to shit on other movies to defend Alita. That so many folks out there display such Schadenfreude says a lot about how degenerate movie fan culture has become.
I know right? It's weird to me that people feel the need to tear good films down to boost up another good movie. Some people did this to Shazam, even though it's one of the best DC movies out there to date. I'm a fan of many different IPs, so it's offputting to me when people insult a decent film I like only to praise another decent film I like. Folks, we're allowed to like more than one movie. I personally wanted just one more good Terminator film that took place after Judgment Day, but now we'll probably never get that. As of now, I consider the Sarah Connor Chronicles to be the true successor to T2.
Terminator Dark Fate is the best Terminator 3 there is. Doesn't come close to T2 but I'll gladly reach it.
@@asch7906 Okay, that's your opinion.
You could tell how much the cast and crew of "Alita" were into the movie and wanted it to be great. These other movies, not so much.
I think Linda was into doing Sarah, and I’m pretty sure Gabriel Luna enjoyed playing the REV-9, and I can say the same for Arnold as Carl, and McKenzie Davis as Grace, but Natalia Reyes I’m not too sure
@@bassplayer807 i agree, Grace, Sarah, and Carl were great. The actress who played Dani wasn't as strong as the other 3 characters.
Alita is the new Terminator for the new kids here and ALITA is STILL my #1 film 2019
Forged in fire, more like forged in a toilet...😎
I'd give Dark Fate a 6-7. Thanks for the free repairs and your time and effort you put into your work in behalf of our Angel. Love and peace to all fans of Alita Battle Angel 🍊🍫♥️
5 for having Arnold in it that's all
I saw it today and I liked it. Yes, some changes were made but if you simply watch it with an open mind, it's not as bad as some are making it out to be.
You’re talking about TDF correct?
@@bassplayer807 yes sir
good to see you stay on the frontlines Doc! keep it up!
I still can't believe they dumped 185 mil into the production of Terminator DF. Where did all the money go? Alita built a whole new world with 15 million less.
Robert Rodriguez knows that you can't just throw money at a movie and expect it to be good. He's built a career on making movies with small budgets.
Excellent video, Doctor! It's great how the petition has been shooting up so rapidly. Do you have any idea what caused it? A few posts on the Alita reddit site said that up until a week ago, the Alita petition was known primarily in the United States, but that last week someone posted to a website where many Europeans visit. Another poster mentioned that a few people paid large sums to Change.org - one person contributed $500 - and that Change.org then publicized the Alita petition, causing the increase.
Also, I saw Terminator Dark Fate and enjoyed it. I rate it an A. SPOILER ALERT: Yes, it's sad that John Connor was killed in the first five minutes. I wish they hadn't done that. However, the movie had great action, and great special effects, and it kept moving. And it also had some good themes and memorable quotes. In Terminator 2, Arnold was a T-800 who was programmed to protect John Connor. One of the themes of that movie was the Terminator's efforts to try to become human. John Connor kept telling the T-800 that it was wrong to kill, and the T-800 tried to go against his nature and not kill. Sarah Connor noted how the T-800 was a better father to John Connor - always there with him, totally dedicated to helping him and protecting him - than John Connor's real father. Sarah noted how odd it was that a killer cyborg was a better father than John's human father. And at the end the T-800 told John that he was starting to understand what it means to be human. Sarah Connor ended the movie by noting that if a killer cyborg could learn not to kill, maybe humans could learn not to kill. That was a good point.
In Dark Fate, another T-800 kills John Connor, but then he looks for a purpose, and finds a mother and son to adopt as his family. In the movie, "Carl" tells Sarah Connor that by taking care of his adopted family, he started to develop a conscience and learned to care about his family. Because of his newly formed conscience, he felt guilt over having killed John Connor, and so he used his computer skills to send text messages to Sarah Connor telling her where and when other terminators were arriving so that she could kill them, which she did. This is a case of a terminator developing a conscience and trying to atone for his sins. Carl sought redemption, and he told Sarah that he would help her to protect Dani. Sarah told Carl that she would go along with this plan, but that after Dani was safe, she was going to kill Carl. Carl replied, "I understand", meaning he felt that he deserved to be killed by Sarah for having murdered her son. Sarah also said that she would never call him "Carl", since that would imply he was a human.
One memorable point was when Carl said good-bye to his family. Grace asked Carl what he said, because his family was visibly upset. Carl told her, "I told my family that the day I warned them about had finally come. The past had caught up with me, and that I won't be back." Yes, Carl's line in this movie was "I won't be back."
Later in the movie, Sarah and Carl are constantly fighting the Rev-9 and helping each other. Near the end, when the Rev-9 was about to kill Dani, and Carl had been temporarily knocked out, Sarah yelled "Carl, wake up! You've got to help Dani!" The implication was that by calling him by his name, she had somewhat forgiven Carl. Sarah started to realize that Carl had been programmed to kill John, and he didn't have a conscience, and you don't blame machines for their behavior. But more than that, Sarah realized that Carl was trying to atone for his sins, by raising a human family and by helping to protect Dani. So another lesson of the movie was that Sarah learned to forgive her son's killer. And forgiveness is an important lesson.
In summary, Terminator Dark Fate was a good film and is a worthy successor to T-2. Apparently, Terminator fans are upset about John Connor's death, but that death was an integral part of the story, leading to redemption for Carl and a lesson in forgiveness for Sarah Connor. And those are worthwhile lessons.
1. Stop spoiling movie for others. 2. Noone wants to read your long ass essay. 3. I've heard it's another Hollywood sjw woke movie. According to 1 youtuber Sarah Connor whispering in someone ear can make you shot from 0 to 10 nonsense, basically making first time shooter a pro in 5-10 seconds.
I would be interested in knowing the details of the 20k jump too. For a while I was worried that they weren't legit. Thanks for your partial explanation 😀
Exactly !! Someone who gets it. Dark Fate was a fantastic film. Cant wait to watch it again.
Hopefully Cameron can dedicate all his energy and time along with Rodriguez in making Alita sequels possible, I'm hoping it's a wake up call. #AlitaSequels
James Cameron is saying these things to distance himself from the dumpster fire that is Dark Fate. He is trying to save his reputation so that people will go watch his up coming movies.
I wouldn't watch another Terminator movie unless Cameron himself is coming back to direct it. But he is already busy with Avatars and hopefully Alita!
Ive been wondering, since Terminator Dark Fate’s poor performance helps an Alita sequel, does that mean an Avatar 2 bomb also helps an Alita sequel?
On one hand, if Avatar 2 bombed, James Cameron could put more effort on a different project like Alita that could generate more revenue. On the other hand, Disney might not greenlight sequel projects of James Cameron since his Avatar sequel bombed. Thoughts?
Alita did okay in the box office, and Terminator DF is projected to bomb. Looking at the returns of these two movies, I'm more concerned that it might discourage him from releasing new film/Alita sequel. What if he decides to stick only to Avatar because it's the "safest" route?
Alita sitting down about to properly nourish her brain: "Do you have any news about my petition?"
I am glad to see James Cameron still has his wits about him
The trailers for new Terminator movie looked awful. Terminator 2 was awesome anything after that was crap.
Thank you, Doc. Alita 4 Ever!
Nor should he be. It was a joke. I was sad walking out of that theater.
Alita was very good, a pleasant surprise. I hope it gets a sequel, it deserves it.
Dark Fate was good. Better than Endgame.
@Kasun Mendis Because of systemstic sexism!
@Kasun Mendis Arnold picking up the shades with a faint Terminator theme is better than Hulk wearing Urkel glasses taking selfies with kids.
@Kasun Mendis Cameron is more concerned with telling special effects than making movies anymore. Cameron said in an interview 15 years ago that AVP was the 3rd best Alien movie in the franchise and he laughed about it while being interviewed.
@Kasun Mendis Because 22 movies didn't lead to it.
@Kasun Mendis I really hope Cameron pulls a Lucas and doesn't make blockbusters for manchildren anymore. He should tell alt right men to go fuck themselves and spit on Benjamins and rub them in their faces. Dark Fate had a hate campaign before the movie even came out.
I signed the petition just now
I signed it because I don’t want Alita to be forgotten,
I personally really love this movie so much, the energy and the amount of courage,strength portrayed through Alita’s character gave me the hope I need to become stronger in my life, she teaches me about seeing the new world, and learn new things, which in the end will benefits myself too, this movie need to stay on forever, because it help change the perspective of the way we look at ourselves,it make us believe we are stronger than what we think, please guys, do your part❤️ I love you guys and Alita is our battle angel, we need to protect her
Alita army go!!!❤️
Thanks again Doc for continuing to provide these quality updates 😊 appreciate all your hard work.
Imagine if Jimmy was also involved with Ghost in The Shell live action movie back in the day, and that movie didn't bomb and was pretty good. And that Jimmy announced a shared universe with an upcoming Appleseed film.
Cameron never said hes unhappy with dark fate
Another great update Doc - thanks! I did see Dark fate and, while not the worst in the series, it was really struggling to do anything fresh for the franchise. I DO get the feeling Cameron had real problems with many aspects of this film - and it shows. Alita, in utter contrast, appears to have been a very smooth and pleasurable experience with Robert Rodriquez totally on board with the vision Cameron had! As for the petition, this is GREAT news and I wonder if the sudden burst of signatures recently is something to do with many brand new fans of Alita having seen it on DVD/BR?? This is all so positive - I really do hope that we get some news about the Sequel soon.
The only characters I remember in the movie were sarah and the t 800 who was melted in t2 and due to some plot twist he's back.
I can't wait for an Alita sequel.
Ryan Reynolds had creative difference with Tim for Dead Pool 2, It's why Tim didn't direct it
Terminator was actually really good. Saw it last night and was pleasantly surprised. Everyone should go check it out!
Yea it definitely shows that he wasn't heavily involved like he was with Alita Battle Angel. It's ashame cause if he was involved a lot more it could be a lot better movie and Terminator sequel. I liked it but it was a average movie c+ at best
Cameron got the whole ''Terminator'' story by ripping off a old ''Outer Limits'' show from the 60's!Harlan Ellison sued him and won.
The Outer Limits episode was called soldier.
Saw it yesterday, it was nice to see Linda back in action. Its an ok action movie with some good scenes etc but it would have been better for everyone if it didnt exist as it tramples on the canon of terminator and needs significant plot holes to work, not to mention the questionable casting, its a shame really.
Bought my bluray ray last month. 4k and 3d disc included.
The sad part is Terminator has a lot of potential if the story is moved forward and told the right way. Salvation may not have been the best but at the very least they moved the story forward and not be stupid and ditch John Connor who is the messiah of the story. Instead they go for wokeness and regurgitation.
Alita Battle Angel Forever😍😘
People keep saying the mistake was killing John Connor but they are in denial..... The problem is that Sarah Conner won T1, John then redundantly won in T2. The series is *over.* Stop making these films. They killed John Connor just to pretend the story had somewhere to go. Same reason as Newt was killed in Alien 3. Shows over...go home.
Hey doc,
Good to hear you back, missed your videos, it's a shame what has happened to Terminator: Dark Fate.
All I can say is,
Go woke & Go broke.!
Another movie the Hollywood agenda has ruined.
On Alita sequel, it will happen, I'm sure of it. 👍
I wanna have my 99 back!! (Alita)
in my opinion, Disney is getting so woke, they are unwilling to make a proper sequel to alita battle Angel ever.
All the politics and wokeness aside, I did enjoy the many action sequences in the Terminator: Dark Fate movie!
Killing john Connor at the beginning of the movei was a bad idea. So all john and Sarah did in T2 was for nothibg? So stupid. Im sure its not Cemeron idea to kill him.
Terminator terminated its self while Alita is rising to face evil!
James must have just been credited as a producer of Dark Fate in an attempt to get asses in seats. Sounds like he didn't have as much creative control as he usually has. The studio was just using his name without allowing the man himself to do what he does best. I firmly believe that Dark Fate could have been a good movie if the studio had given James full creative control. It's typical of Hollywood to pretend they know a franchise better than the guy who created it and then fuck it up.
Dark Fate has split distribution between Fox/Disney and Paramount. Fox released it first in Europe and they saw it giving it bad reviews. When Paramount finally got to release it, no one saw it because of the reviews from Europe. Fox also take that cut. So the main money that came in for that first week from Europe, Paramount don't even get. It is doing a lot worse than people realize. It needs to make around $500 mill to even see some slight profit
Do people even care for terminator anymore? I don’t.
Alita was a great film. Do the math james you need to be hands on to get a good film done
Alita is the future. The character, the world, the story. So much to explore!!
It's hard for me to think of a Passing of The Torch plot that has actually worked in film. It almost never works because the OG character was a flash in the pan, but this is different. This deals with Time Travel which can make things for the fans a bit insulting especially if the new character isn't as iconic.
It's unfortunate to see a franchise die, but it's also obvious that the Terminator concept has played out.
i love Alita, watched it 3x at the movies, got the bluray now. it was an unexpectedly phenomenal movie and its star Rosa Salazar did a fantastic job promoting it. just sucks that the media didn't want to promote it and the critics blasted it for some reason, somehow rating it much lower than Captain Marvel and Ghostbusters 2016. but u know what? the audience scored Alita 93% so lets get that sequel!
So Cameron sells out his name and just lauds the good ones that come out instead of ensuring all of them come out good. My disappointment with the movie (and with Cameron) is 28 years deep. I join the legion of fans of the first two movies who would rather have never seen Dark Fate.
Keep up the good work. Black Friday is critical; people need to spread the word to make it happen.
I saw Dark fate Friday night .and in my opinion was good. But i just wanted to see a good action movie. But if you want to see a good movie with a good story you won't be pleased!!!!I was happy to see Linda and Arnold together again!
Well I picked up a 2nd copy of the Steelbook yesterday. I'm planning on keeping this one sealed.
The moment I seen the sjwish character in the trailers of the new terminator I knew it wasn't going to do well.
Cameron already said it ended on T2 but won't stand in the way of whoever wants to try making money out of it.
I honestly think it should continue on from salvation onwards because that's what most original fans wanted to see.
As Hudson would say "it's game over man, game over".
1: I wish Disney would lose their rights to 20th Century Fox!
2: I hope the sequel of Alita Battle Angel does happen.
The previous Terminator reboots were okay, but it becomes disheartening when they keep rebooting it. Alita has the advantage of being rooted in something other than just movies. I think Terminator lost direction, because it was just movies rather than movies based on something else. The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings movies didn't change direction like this, because they were based on well-known works with a huge fan base. Although the Alita movie departed more from its source material, it still has the same kind of thing going for it, and this will hopefully keep Alita sequels from losing focus like the Terminator sequels have.
If Cameron had written the screenplay and directed this then i would have gone to see it. Terminator is a dead franchise and they need to let it go once and for all. T1 and T2 were god damn masterpieces and its tough to live up to those films especially if the guy who created the thing wasn't at the helm.
If it were up to me i would end all these old franchisees. It’s time for something new. Especially Alita would be great for a more expanded universe and she deserves it too.
Yes yes yes alita 2 movie
I saw Terminator Dark Fate tonight in IMAX and i think it was ok. To me it was worth my money. I don't feel ripped off. Will i see it umpteen t times like i did A:BA? ... no, but i will buy the blu-ray when it drops.
YMMV... 😊
Lol we knew this was going to bomb 6 months ago when the story leaked. Killing john was stupid. Your right with the star wars comparisons. The star wars sequels are garbage.
