This is a really well-made photoshop, they just fit right into that scene.

I don't get how this Terminator robot is so dorky-looking. It doesn't look all that different from the older ones from T2 and whatever, but somehow it still looks like a total dweeb while the T2 ones look badass. Maybe it's the teeth? The angle of the head? Maybe it'd look better in action...

Please report me if you see me post in GBS so a moderator may bulldoze my account like a palestinian school.
What are these pictures? Boring parking lot and shouting as you're shooting at the floor like a spaz translates into cool now, I suppose.
Why do they keep making stupid remakes and reboots that inevitably turn out to be stupid and lovely? Terminator was cool because it was innovative and had good cinematic qualities not because it came from the terminatorverse.

Do you guys think this is like the same process that gave rise in olden-times to various mythical creatures like vampires and unicorns and poo poo? Are there going to be, sometime in the not so distant future, just a category of mythic creature "Terminator" which is a Schwarzenegger robot that learns emotions impossibly every single time? I imagine one of my ancestors being all like "another Icthycentaur play? Ggeez, come up with something new already besides fish rear end dudes with crab claws on their heads."

That being said, those photos look like poo poo.

(tl;dr: new :downs:-800 endoskeleton head has a poorly-made face, old badass endoskeleton had a skull)

jaw is either extremely weak or partly missing, cheek section modeled after flesh instead of bone so it instead of menacing skull you have this too-rounded downsy look all the way through the area below the nose to the upper bridge of the nose and the far side of the cheek bone (instead of having a horrifying look of sunken-in steel gums on this one you can almost see lips), neck is too long and you cant help but mentally fill in that the flesh over it would have a weak or lanky trapezius muscle, head hanging weakly at a downward angle, chestpiece of the chassis that draws attention toward a central point of symmetry looks more like it was intended as a dorky logo instead of something functional

basically you could weld a pocket protector onto the thing to finish the look

Well it must be a prequel. The T-1000 is still happy because he has yet to hear how bad the movies after 2 are.

I think it's the teeth and eyes.
The one on the left has yellow ghoul teeth and glowing red eyes. While the one on the right is suitable for a toothpaste commercial.

one looks like they made the flesh of the face out of metal particularly the angle and shape of the cheeks (and gave it broad friendly smile like dumbasses) the other is straightup skull this is easy

Here's a replica of the 90s terminator in similar pose

Note how it also looks sheepish and unthreatening when unposed and in regular lighting.

Even if you take angle and lighting considerations, the new one definitely has teeth that are lame and a too-skinny neck. Maybe glowing eyes would help at least.

If I were human, I believe my response would be: 'go to hell'.
Will Arnold Schwarzenegger reprise his role?

Will Matt Smith be John Connor? Is he a tech nerd with... a screwdriver?

Why would a studio green light this? Terminator doesn't need this fleshed out universe. It's such a shameless ploy.

Matt Smith (guy with the strange head) is a loving brilliant actor, and I hope his abilities are used in this film. I would rather see films with him in than our most prominent export Benedict Cucumberpatch.

Maybe that's the movies plot twist? The most effeminate man turns out to be the killer robot in disguise.
