The ultimate ‘Terminator’ recap before watching ‘Terminator: Dark Fate’

In Terminator Genisys, poor Kyle Reese says the time travel makes his head hurt. And one cannot blame the bean counters for returning to it every time they announce a reboot, like the latest Terminator Dark Fate, which even has Cameron’s blessings and brings back Linda Hamilton’s Sarah Connor. Skynet decides to send a terminator into the past, 1984, to kill Sarah, John’s mum so that he will not exist and there will be no resistance and the machines can be happy swimming in oceans of code and applying oil to their shiny joints. Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines directed by Jonathan Mostow had a supermodel, Kristanna Loken playing a Terminatrix T-X who is sent back in time to kill John and his associates including Kate Brewster, his future wife. Dark Fate is supposed to take off immediately after Judgment Day and brings back Hamilton’s Sarah, who looks fighting fit and ready to take on an army of terminators all on her own.
