Cameron has confirmed that Terminator 6 will ignore every sequel except for Terminator 2: Judgment Day. “This is a continuation of the story from Terminator 1 and Terminator 2. And we’re pretending the other films were a bad dream. Or an alternate timeline, which is permissible in our multi-verse,” he explained.
“I realize that we made those other movies. But given that they were stupid ass movies, I have elected to ignore it.”
Honestly, that’s so refreshing. I wish more film developers would take this strategy and just be like, “Yeah, ignore films three through five, they were a series of bad fever dreams.”
