Two Actors Competing For 'Kyle Reese' Role In TERMINATOR GENESIS Revealed

Jai Courtney should be Booster Gold

^^^^

Probably tie into 1 & 2, and maybe, hopefully, intentionally ERASE 3 & 4.

I think Jai Courtney would be a good choice. Maybe just because I like the guy.

Jai Courtney would be good.

eh....only Terminator that was good was #1. they've casted badly for 2 and 3, those kids were effing annoying and pathetic. And in salvation, that stupid russian kid? annoying as well. I don't know who the scruffy hipster guy is, but I doubt I'd like him.

Does anyone still care about this franchise anymore? Just let it be terminated already...

I think Garret Hedlund would be awesome.

So is this another 'soft reboot' like Star Trek? If they're going to start it over, then they should go all the way. No ties to the other films and no Arnold.

@DaVinci31

HAH!
He does look like Booster.

@SotoJuiceMan: "BTW, Salvation was the worst Terminator movie ever made. Hands down, the killer of the Terminator franchise."

I would have to disagree. In my opinion, Terminator 3 murdered this franchise in cold blood, LONG before Salvation could have its way with it.

Salvation was boring, misguided, and ultimately pointless... but T3 was genuinely, offensively stupid and an insulting backpedal from the entire thematic point of the first two films.

The first films were all about humanist ideas-- the capacity of the individual to achieve greatness, self-determinism ("no fate but what we make"), etc. But T3 suddenly flipped it all around-- now John Connor was only important because he was DESTINED to be important, but he couldn't take any actions that CONTRADICTED that destiny. Judgment Day was suddenly "inevitable", and the individual was transformed into a helpless cog in the inner workings of thunderous, unavoidable fate.

Also, the film was goofy and stupid as all hell. "Talk to the hand", the Elton John sunglasses, "She'll be back", the inflatable breasts... just one banal, lowest-common-denominator moment after another. It really is painful to watch.

And it's a lot worse than Salvation. Salvation made no logical sense, sure, but also didn't have enough going on in it to make you care one way or another. The film had virtually no stakes, no point, no emotional impact one way or another... it was the textbook definition of "filler". I don't see how anyone could stay mad at it-- I can barely even REMEMBER it half the time!

I'm guessing motion cap?
