With a release date of July 1st, 2015, The marketing campaign for director Alan Taylor's next movie Terminator: Genisys has just begun with coverage of the hotly debated movie appearing in the new issue of Entertainment Weekly, available this friday. To promote the new issue EW.com have released a little snippet of information from the article, as well as two variant front covers for the magazine, each featuring official imagery from the movie.

Reportedly the movie starts much like the orignally planned beginning of Terminator 2: Judgment Day - set in 2029, John Connor (Jason Carke) leads his men in an offensive push against the Skynets faltering forces of machines and upon breaking through into Skynets lab witnesses a T-800 being sent back in time to 1984, programmed to kill his mother before he is born, to which Kyle Reese volunteers to follow after the Terminator in a bid to protect John's mother and the woman he secretly loves; Sarah Connor.

Yet, when Kyle Reese appears in 1984 to save Sarah from termination at the hands of a T-800 assassin (The Terminator, 1984), instead of finding the innocent, feather haired Linda Hamilton version of Sarah Connor he instead discovers the reclusive, socially inept Emilia Clarke version of the character. It truns out that the grey-haired, old Terminator portrayed by franchise star Arnold Schwarzenegger and seen throughout the movies production has been Sarah Connors guardian since she was 9 years old, and already aware of the future destined to come, she has already vowed not to become a victim of her, and her unborn sons destiny.

This revelation actually goes somehwat to explaining some, but not all, of the leaked footage and imagery seen so far. Arguably this "Pops" version of the Terminator must have been sent back to 1974 (Sarah Connor was 19 in the events depicted in the the Terminator) from a point in time after the events in 2029. Yet this alteration to the timeline will have a ripplewave effect on the events that follow - Will Sarahs quest against Cyberdne Systems result in the destruction of the company all together, or to allow Miles Dysons work to go on on unhindered? What of John Connors childhood, does he still meet Kate Brewster, was he still cared for b the Voights, Janelle and Todd?

Judment Day cannot be stopped it is an inevitability within the timeline of the Terminator franchise, dictated by the presence of the Terminators themselves; its just a matter of when the fateful event will occur, and the repucussions of that date requires that the writers and director (at the very least) fully understand the actual nature of the timeline, not only to appease hardcore fans but also to write a cohesive story that doesn't fall apart under the slightest of examinations.

Changing the past affects the future, and the outcome of that future is dependant upon the past!
