The Rise And Spectacular Fall Of The Terminator Franchise

Released in July of 1991, Terminator 2: Judgment Day took an impressive $31 million and would gross a worldwide total of $519.8 million (over $1 billion in today’s money). So successful and popular was Terminator 2: Judgment Day that it spawned a 3D attraction at Universal Studios, directed by James Cameron with Arnold Schwarzenneger, entitled T2 3-D: Battle Across Time and an arcade game based on the movie was well received – even with some rubbish home console ports. The SNES tie-in game however left a lot to be desired. The movie was parodied in Wayne’s World and Schwarzenegger vehicle Last Action Hero (with Robert Patrick reprising his role both times) as well as various episodes of The Simpsons. Twenty-three years later, X-Men: Days of Future Past nodded to its legacy when Wolverine replicated the infamous, “I need you clothes, your boots and your motorcycle” line when he arrives in the 1970s from the future.

For me, the Terminator films were products of their times. The first two worked great as dumb, tongue-in-cheek 80's action flicks, but move over to the 2000s and they're nothing but shallow eye-candy where sci-fi films had grown into so much more.

Genisys might make all the right attempts as the Terminator film that tried for a clean slate, but they're all running together as one big slip-up after another.
