Is Genisys supposed to be a reboot? I can't see any other reason to rehash scenes from the previous movies using different actors.

Reboot Wiki
"In serial fiction, to reboot means to discard all continuity in an established series in order to recreate its characters, timeline and backstory from the beginning."

Terminator Genisys Wiki
..."the fifth installment in the Terminator series and will serve as a retcon sequel to the series.

Retcon Wiki
"Retroactive continuity, or retcon for short, is the alteration of previously established facts in the continuity of a fictional work."

Ah. So to put it another way, "We couldn't come up with any new ideas, so we decided to leapfrog around our favorite bits from previous movies with the hope of cashing in on vestigial fan enthusiasm." Does that sound about right? I hope not.

I just want the Guardian T-800, mainly because it looks like the best sculpt of Awnuld in his signature role.
