Review:
Proposed Preamble that might make Terminator Genisys more palpable:
Forget everything you know.
Sort of kind of I mean. The first
2 movies were really good right but since most of you in the audience are millennials
you all probably thought they were ok but looked old. So we’ve just redone some of those sequences
but like cooler and with update FX. Back
on point, forget but remember what happened in those first two movies because
you kind of need to know but don’t need to know it. Either way we’ll explain it. It’d really help if you watched a lot of Star
Trek because there are timelines all over the place and yeah there might be
plot holes all over the place and if you think too hard it’ll make zero sense,
so don’t. It’s all good we have a great
director who knows how to film big action sequences and they’ll be fun, we
promise! Oh and did we mention that Arnold
freaking Schwarzenegger is back, giggle, and we totally explain why it’s ok
that’s he’s old. He’s hilarious! We couldn’t explain Linda Hamilton and
Michael Biehn being old so we replaced them with the mother of freaking
dragons! OMG she’s sooooo hot, probably not
believably tough, but look at her china doll features! And come on look Jai Courtney, he’s like a
warm plate of vanilla ice cream, it’s not great but it ain’t bad either! I almost forgot about Jason Clarke, he’s like
super important, but I think we finally nailed a grown up version of Edward
Furlong! We knew you couldn’t wait for a
pretty good twist, so we just told everybody because, come on who hates
waiting! So thanks for giving us a shot
on your July 4th weekend, its hot outside and who wants to see
stupid fireworks, we’ve got our own and I’m pretty sure you’ll enjoy our movies
a lot more than you thought you would!
Enjoy!
P.S. We threw in JK Simmons because he like won and Oscar
and insures my house! Probably should
have used him more because he’s hilarious!
