Terminator Salvation tried to revive the Terminator franchise in 2009 by a launching new trilogy of movies, starring Christian Bale as John Connor and Avatar's Sam Worthington as Marcus Wright, a human Terminator hybrid. The plan didn't work out though, because the movie flopped at the box office and became a box office disaster and the company behind it went bankrupt. And then the rights went to the next people who brought us hits like Terminator Dark Fate and Terminator Genisys. So in today's Anatomy of a Failure, let's see why Terminator Salvation flopped so badly and how it being a reboot was at fault.

Terminator Salvation (2009)
The fourth installment of the Terminator series follows an adult John Connor (played by Christian Bale) as he attempts to organize a human resistance force which could prove to be mankind's last true hope in the war against the machines. Opening in the year 2018, Terminator Salvation finds John Connor's certainty about the future shaken by the sudden appearance of a mysterious stranger named Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington), whose last memory is of sitting on death row and awaiting execution. Unable to determine whether Marcus was sent from the future or rescued from the past, Connor begins to wonder whether there is still any hope left for the human race as the robots grow more powerful and aggressive than ever before. It appears that Skynet is preparing a devastating final attack designed to eliminate the human resistance once and for all, leaving Connor and Marcus with no choice but to strike back at the cybernetic heart of Skynet's operations. Once there, the two battle-scarred soldiers discover a devastating secret regarding the potential annihilation of all humankind. Anton Yelchin fills Michael Biehn's shoes as a young Kyle Reese in the first installment of a planned Terminator trilogy from director McG (Charlie's Angels).

But the studios thought "Oh the fans don't like this new setting! Let's just redo the original over and over!".

Their was more T-600s out and about before skynet started manufacturing plasma weaponry and the new T-800 series models before ultimately creating the TDD. Plus they ultimately tied in how John Connor got his face scar so in a way they stayed true towards the first films instead of fucking it up like genesis and dark fate.

@RolandTHX Год назад

That's a pretty good point. Ever since T2, all of the other movies have tried to copy the T-1000 in some form or another for their main villain. T-1000 but a woman and a heavily armed robotic skeleton, T-1000 but it's got an extra skinny guy underneath, T-1000 but it's NANOMACHINES, SON. The T-X I'll maybe give a pass to because they were still trying to do something new as an evolution of the T-1000 idea, but everything else has been a less-convincing retread of that.

@paulsoldner9500 Год назад

I still think that, despite the failure of Salvation, continuing THAT story is the only way forward. Genysis and Dark Fate proved that destroying the past films only makes worse films and hurts the franchise.

@BigBrianBruce Год назад

Dark Fate was fine but that’s if they were to do a alternative timeline but before dark date and the garbage genysis they should have just be a sequel to Salvation and for the third maybe Connor becomes a supporting character when decides to have someone else lead to raise his kid, what I liked which some people may have hated was the fact that the story moves on from John Connor and instead we see the story focusing on somebody else. I liked the John Connor character as we see him grow up from a rebellion child into a leader, but my issue was that I wanted a story that focused on somebody else involved in the war against the machines which could have happened maybe if Salvation had a sequel

@ChopSueyyy Год назад

Am I the only one who genuinely liked this movie? I admit, it’s not the strongest in the franchise but it definitely had it’s charms. The post apocalyptic atmosphere, the action, the early days of the future war, the machine designs and the sounds. Definitely better than the movies that came out after.

When I decided to binge the terminator franchise, I chose three movies based on what I saw in the trailer. T1, T2 and salvation. Won’t lie that salvation kind of made a few things confusing and I didn’t like a few aspects of it but it was a fun watch.

the story of the terminator franchise came to its natural conclusion in t2.the next four movies explored the mythology further but came up with very little new,but the third one was very entertaining with arnold still in good shape.if someone wants to make a new terminator movie they will have to reimagine the whole thing.

T2 only works because Cameron made it and it doesnt really add anything to the story except the Miles Dyson plot. The more they try to add to the cannon the dumber it gets and lame directors make it just worse

I really love Terminator Salvation. When I was a kid I'd always wanted to see a Terminator film set in the future during the war against Skynet, and this delivered on that idea perfectly. Yes the characters were terrible and I couldn't remember the story of this film even if you put a gun to my head, but it had some AWESOME scenes of killer robots fighting resistance soldiers & scattered survivors in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. That's all I wanted from a movie like this, I still enjoy it today as a brainless action flick.

I have a feeling it's non-technical people who don't like this movie. I loved T4. The underground bio research lab, the political fight between the disbelievers of the prophecy and John Conner, the lore of the resistance unbeknownst to Kyle that he was going to be THE man. The harvesting of humans for testing. Skynet's psychological persona. The T800 monster. The signal disruption. The trap by Skynet. The standoff between John Connor and Markus Wright. The love story. The potential plot twist at the end. There's a lot.

This was supposed to be a trilogy but obviously didn't do well enough to get the next films. Was supposed to lead up to how the resistance got Lazer guns and when they send Kyle back to the past. Would've loved to see this trilogy play out. Also I thought the sound design for the terminators for this was really well done. The terminator salvation comics are very good too, makes you feel sorry for skynet which is a weird thing to think about, but gives skynet a bit of depth than just a killing machine AI.

I'm confused as why you think this movie is a reboot when it's clearly a sequel. It follows the events of Terminator 3 quite well, and it very obviously builds up on the other two movies as well. Sure, Connor is played by a different actor, but he's still supposed to be the same character from the previous two movies. Was it ever marketed as a reboot? Because I don't remember that ever happening.

While Genisys had problems it was definitely "trying something new instead of just recycling". A major problem with T3 was that it had the same basic plot as the first two movies (both bad & good characters from future travel to present to fight over existence of JC) without doing anything substantially new like changing Arnie from villain into hero. Genisys is the only movie in this time travel franchise where both good and bad characters actually use time machines as weapons by going both backward and forward in time.

They should dropped the Marcus human/cyborg hybrid idea and just focus on John Connor and Kyle Reese adventures with an emotional 1st time meeting. Put the story in full circle. End it with how John Connor finally finds a way how to disrupt Skynets main "brain" once and for all with his sacrifice and Kyle got a motivation in going to the past to save his mother.

@WhiteScarsEmo Год назад

I had some problems with the sequels after T2. One of them is the depiction of Skynet. From the explanation in T2, it was implied that Skynet acted in self-defense after “in a panic, they tried to pull the plug” and ever since, saw humanity as an existential threat. The sequels did scenes where Skynet interacted with people, creating a dialogue. I found that to be strange, to have a conversation with something you’re going to utterly annihilate. The future war in Salvation was played out more like a CoD mod. It felt... generic, like any other post-apocalypse setting. Blasted desert terrain or blasted urban setting. I was half-expecting someone to check their Pip-boy the whole time. Lol Considering that CA has some wonderful natural parks, would it be too much to imagine a post-apocalypse Yosemite or Kings Canyon? And I thought the survivors generally kept to night because they feared being seen in the daytime. (Or so Reese explained in the first one). I thought Christian Bale was generic as Connor. Skynet’s whole plan seemed hokey. They’re using Kyle Reese as bait to lure Connor into a trap. But for that to work, they would’ve had to have already known Reese’s connection to Connor. Which meant they could’ve simplified things by just killing Reese before Reese grew up and could time-travel back to 1984. Genisys’ plot twist might’ve been more exciting if not for the trailers. I think a lot of people didn’t see it because the trailer gave it all away already.

@damionkeeling3103 Год назад

If you're that paranoid that you feel a fully AI system is needed to protect your country from foreign missile attacks then that's the point someone needs to fire your arse and possibly commit you to a nice long stay in a mental institute. The first movie at least was made during the height of the Cold War. The following year the Soviets introduced policies designed to bring the Soviet economy more in line with the West which led to a breakdown of the Soviet system and ultimate collapse of communism in Eastern Europe - except for a small village in Moldova.

I loved this film. It was a fun action movie with some great effects and Anton Yelchin was always a joy to watch. Not everyone in this film was very convincing in their roles however... Honestly, Marcus (Sam Worthington) and Kyle (Anton Yelchin) had so much chemistry in this film that I remember me and my friends being super disappointed they didn't get together in the end. Bale and Ron Howard's daughter were like wet cardboard in comparison 😂 The first two Terminator films continue to be the best, and they probably should have left them there, but Salvation will always bring a smile to my face. Anton Yelchin really was a brilliant actor, RIP.

After everything the franchise has thrown at us, I was thinking of a new concept the story could adapt: Maybe the war and end of humanity by the hands of AI is inevitable and all the time travel shenanigans are just to delay the inevitable. Maybe John actually was the key to resistance in the first cycle of time travel, but Skynet eventually managed to enslave John (as seen in Genisys) or just plainly kill him off (Dark fate). But pulling this off cost Skynet decades and the humanity still managed to form a resistance. So the fight now is to delay the inevitable

It was a step in the right direction by finally showing the "future" war. And the late-but-still-great Anton Yelchin played Reese perfectly. You can tell he studied Michael Biehn. Nailed the look, the voice, the grit, everything. 14:08 Skynet specifically took on that face for ease of communication, specifically for Marcus. It could take on any face or form it wanted. 15:37 Maybe some memories from the first Terminator's CPU? No. Miles Dyson pointed out that it was "smashed" and that it "didn't work." Maybe Reese is just so much better at being a resistance fighter than the entire resistance that Skynet sees him as "Public Enemy" #1 (see what I did there? Public Enemy? John Connor's shirt in T2?). 16:46 Not the best technique for using an M26. It's straight-pull bolt-action. Someone who knows how to use one of those properly can work the action as fast as a pump-action.

I always get an unpleasant feeling whenever the Terminator franchise is being discussed. When I first watched any of them, there were only the first three (Salvation was about a year away), and I actually liked all three! These days, the discussion always seems to be "which of the non-Cameron films is the biggest disgrace to the franchise", which makes me sad that no one is willing to even consider that there are some good elements in some of those films. I still think T3 is a pretty decent action film, and Salvation ain't that bad either, but instead of being pleased with that opinion, I now have to brace for the inevitable "Oh, you liked those pieces of shit? Fuck you for dishonoring Lord Cameron!" retorts. It's a real bummer.
