Thursday Movie Picks #53: Science Fiction Movies (No Space/Aliens)

I missed last week's Thursday Movie Picks because I went on a road trip of my own. Due to a train driver strike I was forced to catch the bus to get to a small town in Gloucestershire instead of using the train. I left the house at 8.30 am and didn't get back to 10pm so I had no time to write or publish my three favourite Road Movies. Anywho I am back this week. The instigator of Thursday Movie Picks can be found here - http://wanderingthroughtheshelves.blogspot.co.uk/

Terminator Genisys



It is 2027 and the humans, led by John Connor (Jason Clarke), have beaten Skynet in a long and bitter war. However, Skynet have sent a T800 (Arnold Schwarzenegger) back in time to kill Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke) before she can give birth to the resistance leader, John Connor. In response John Connor sends Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) back in time to 1982 to save Sarah Connor. If it sounds familiar it is because it's what happened in The Terminator, however, things have changed and Kyle is sent to an alternate 1982 - a 1982 where Sarah Connor is already prepared for such an attack and with her own T800 (also played by Arnold Schwarzenegger) Sarah tries to stop Judgement Day from ever happening.
