    Yeah, this looks nowhere near as bad T5 did from its second trailer- though both probably give away too much of the plot.

    I'm not saying it will be good because I don't know, but to equate it with what Terminator: Genisys tried to do is lunacy. And, for the record, I actually kind of liked T5 in a totally shut-my-brain-off entertaining kind of way. I watched it on a plane, of course.

    I enjoyed it too in a Rocky Horror sort of way. Emilia Clarke was just awful though.

    Wait, the movie has Jai Courtney as Kyle Reese and you're crapping on Clarke as the weakness in the cast?

    I'm guessing you didn't read the leaked script.

    I don't read leaked scripts, no. I didn't read the Spectre one either...

    I would if I could get around that pile of hamburgers and remotes in front of you.

    What's going on in here - it's like some 70's sitcom

    I rarely do. I think the last ones I read were Darabont's Indy 4 & Cameron's Avatar, but that was back in the late 90's.

    Care for some disaster tourism? These guys won't play.

    Sure. I'm just watching the last 10 mins of Liverpool v Seville, which is also disaster tourism

    Dios mio, man. What a cluster****. Not sure which final version will be worse - probably the Paul Feig pitch version.

    The pitch version is a painfully revealing insight into the state of the movie industry. If you're friends with the right people, you can just write your stoned thoughts up in an email and they'll be made into the movie people waited three decades for.

    Unless you've been waiting for the next Ghostbusters 2, in which case this movie looks more or less to be exactly what you wanted.

    I have! I've grown to love movie franchise disasters. It's a whole new genre. I guess we all witnessed its birth. The nice thing about it is: it has no real casualties!

    I never trawled through the Sony hack stuff at the time, but hearing that they considered aggressive litigation against Bill Murray if he rejected appearing in it, is just a straight to hell sin.

    I can't agree with this more strongly. If Hollywood is determined to spend the bulk of its money on these nearly sure thing reboots and remakes and recapitulations, we really need to enjoy it more when they fail.
