In one instance, he openly endorsed Genisys, making the claim that audiences would love the film, which unfortunately backfired and made the film's poor reception even worse. On more than one occasion, James Cameron himself attempted to save his beloved franchise. ![]() This is obviously not for a lack of trying. Every single film following Judgment Day has done its utter best to live up to its predecessors, but ultimately come up short due. It is safe to say that the Terminator franchise has since been struggling. This perfect ending is unfortunately dashed by the release of the Rise of the Machines movie, as it showed that everything that was done in the previous film to prevent Judgment Day was for naught in that it wasn't averted, but rather postponed - not to mention the fact that they killed Sarah Connor off-screen. Not only this, but the DVD and Blu-ray releases of the film even went so far as to include an alternate ending that depicts Sarah as an elderly woman and loving grandmother and John as a highly-respected United States senator. The T-1000 is destroyed, the inception of the evil artificial intelligence unit known as Skynet (the leader of the future machine rebellion) is prevented, and Sarah and John are definitively safe from Terminators once and for all. It is because of this simplicity that, by the end of the second film, everything gets wrapped up in a nice little bow. Essentially, despite the complexity of the universe's lore, Terminators 1 and 2 succeeded because of their simplicity. ![]()
