Dark Fate and Genisys make the same awful mistake of killing off the main point in the franchise rather than trying to put a major emphasis on it. Atleast rise of the machine tried to do it somewhat, even if it wasn't very good. Oh yeah, both films also do a god awful job of retconning the original two terminator films. yayy.
*Spoiler* By main point I'm refering to john connor and his ascendance to leader of man against the machines. Btw they killled him off for a generic hispanic girl. If that doesn't count as forced diversity, i don't know what does.
One more thing, James Cameron apparently reuses the same plot from the second movie. Bad terminator comes back, good terminator comes back to fight bad one, the 'unkillable' machine gets killed, and arnold dies. yayy.
