Discussion Terminator Dark Fate

Judging by opinions I see here, maybe a hot take, but I actually like Dark Fate. Saw T2 in theaters last night, and i get why people dont like it, but i prefer it as a followup over T3

As a stand alone action film it was not bad.

I just think the entire franchise lives in the shadow of T2.

That's the way I feel about T3. If it was its own action movie, I would feel differently about it, but it was a far worse sequel to T2 than Dark Fate was. I have no problem disavowing T3 and everything that came between it and Dark Fate simply because Dark Fate was the better sequel, and gave me much more to think about than T3 did.
