    Ep. 52 - The Terminator Franchise: Highs and Lows

    "This Franchise Will Absolutely Not Stop, Ever... Until We Are Dead!" It's taken waaaay too long to edit and publish this episode but it has arrived! Quick disclaimer before the rest of the typical description: I believe I made mention at some point of a 2023 ranked episode. Hence why within this episode I keep saying it's episode 53, not 52. Well, it's now 2025, and we've missed both the 2023 and 2024 ranking. Yikes. I really hope to get back to podding and editing on a more regular basis but life has really pushed back in many ways. But I haven't forgot about you, faithful listener. CineStudy shall persevere. Love y'all. Back to your normally scheduled description... In which host Dylan welcomes guests Pappy and Korey from Spoilers! and Big Dumb Movie to discuss the highs, lows and overall state of the Terminator movie franchise. Burning questions of cybernetic proportion are tackled in this episode. What hallmarks elevate the first two franchise installments to all-time classics? Where do later chapters drop the ball? And, most importantly, is there any fate but what we make for ourselves? Answer all of these inquiries and more on the fifty-second episode of CineStudy.  This is a SPOILER FILLED EPISODE for all six installments of the Terminator franchise. No holds barred. Be warned!
