Look, I know that the science and timelines of the Terminator movies are hanging on by a fragile thread, and that this trailer seems to be like a pair of cyborg scissors sent back in time to hack away at whatever shreds of legitimacy remain for a film franchise about a robot who first is sent back in time to kill someone and then is sent back to slightly later time to save someone and her son and then is sent back to slightly later in time to save, I think, the son again, but I just do not care. Sarah Connor is one of the most important fictional role models in my life; I think about her when I'm at the gym, when I put on sunglasses, when I fight the patriarchy (literally all the time). Just look at this. So, I mean, I'm going to go see this movie no matter what. "Come see this movie if you want to" etc. Ok? Ok.

Man I just can't do it. The last one was SO TERRIBLE. I'm going to just treasure my memories of the Sarah Connor Chronicles for all time, and try to ignore the ongoing parting-out of the once-glorious franchise
Something about the movie's look is a little off-putting: It's too current, too "now", as if it'll look outdated in a few years' time. But hell if this Sarah Connor doesn't look as kickass as her previous incarnations.
Linda Hamilton in T2 is my Patronus.
I can't get myself to get over that the whole point of Sarah Connor is that we need her because her SON is going to save the world.
Break out the shotguns! We need to protect this uterus!
