Terminator Genisys: a groan-worthy video game plot

From Entertainment Weekly:

Sarah Connor isn't the innocent she was when Linda Hamilton first sported feathered hair and acid-washed jeans in the role. Nor is she Hamilton's steely zero body-fat warrior in 1991's T2. Rather, the mother of humanity's messiah was orphaned by a Terminator at age 9. Since then, she's been raised by (brace yourself) Schwarzenegger's Terminator—an older T-800 she calls "Pops"—who is programmed to guard rather than to kill. As a result, Sarah is a highly trained antisocial recluse who's great with a sniper rifle but not so skilled at the nuances of human emotion.

Poppa terminator. HAH! How the heck did they come up with the plot for this reboot?! It sounds like something out of a Eastern Europe video game after a poor translation.

I don't get why they're rebooting the series rather than just adding on to it.

And yeah... it sounds ridiculous.

The first trailer is out now.

I was expecting it to seem much worse, but this actually looks like it has some potential.
