Arnold Schwarzenegger’s post-political film career hasn’t really gone as well as many had hoped, so you can hardly blame him for returning to the roles audiences loved in the past. Unfortunately I’m still waiting to get excited about TERMINATOR: GENISYS as everything that we've seen so far hasn’t really justified why they’re taking another trip down Terminator Avenue.

I’m not sure why but the image of that T-800 awkwardly positioned on the steering wheel makes me laugh. Hopefully that’s not indicative of what my feelings towards the completed film will be. I want to be excited about TERMINATOR: GENISYS, I really do, but I'm not quite there yet.
The TERMINATOR: GENISYS synopsis:
When John Connor (Jason Clarke), leader of the human resistance, sends Sgt.

TERMINATOR: GENISYS hits theaters on July 1, 2015.
Despite the lackluster marketing campaign, are you excited to see Arnold back as the Terminator once again?
