Warning: It gets rather sweary.

Craig and Chris (eventually) from Whit's The Script? are joined by Sean to discuss Terminator Genisys (2015). 

Is the time right for a reappraisal for the much-maligned fifth instalment in the Terminator series? Probably not, but here goes. 

Discussion Points:

-Craig does a surprisingly good English accent. 

-They struggle to understand the withering criticism directed towards this instalment.

-Craig has chosen this hill to die on and it has Terminator Genisys written all over it.

-Expectations versus reality.

-The strong pacing of the film.

-The spoilers in the trailers.

-Sean talks about giving films a second chance.

-Chris arrives after 46 minutes and well any truly rains on Craig and Sean's Genisys-themed parade.

-Sean inadvertently reveals his CD collection.

Random Questions:

-Does the John Connor-Terminator hybrid have a model number?

-Is Sean popular enough to do 'hot takes'?

-Is The Lost World (1997) better than the original?

-Should they have binned John Connor and Katherine Connor (Nee Brewster) from Terminator Salvation (2009)?

-Jai Courtney has won his way back into Sean's good books, but has he got into yours?

-Is J.K. Simmons (Robocop) easy money?

-Why couldn't they paint the tyres over the guy's face?

-Do you have film quotes that you think about every now and again?

-Will Sean ever give Spectre (2015) another try?

-Chris wonders, was Sarah Connor needed in this film? 

-Does anyone ever read these notes? 

-Why does Sean suddenly get so sweary?

-How do you say lore?
