It really could look a lot worse.

Today, as promised, Paramount Pictures has unveiled to the world the first proper look at their reboot of the time-traveling robot franchise with Terminator Genisys.

Despite the horrible title, despite the horrible promotional photos, this doesn’t really look…all that bad?

Perhaps the conglomeration of bad things surrounding this film acted as a pre-emptive salve, but Genysis (I hate writing that word) looks like a potentially fun mashup of The Terminator and T2: Judgement Day with modern actors and what is - at least at this stage - really awful CGI. I do kinda like Emilia Clarke as Sarah Connor.

Jai Courtney will continue to be a thing no one cares about, however.

Terminator Genisys will probably be worth a matinee at best, when it hits theaters on July 1, 2015.
