10 Films You Only Ever Remember Seeing The Trailer For
10. Terminator: Dark Fate
In October of last year, the latest instalment reboot of the Terminator franchise was released. Dark Fate was the sixth movie in the long running series, and a direct sequel to Judgement Day, and saw many stars returning for their famous roles such as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton. Director James Cameron also returned once again as producer.
Cinema goers will remember the movie trailer everywhere they looked, dominating all screens to get the highest possible hype for the new movie. However, this did not translate into sales when it was finally released.
Although the film received high critic responses compared to the last few films in the franchise, the overall box office revenue was lower than average and performed last in the list of all six films. For many fans, the series had seemingly gone on far enough, with the hype long dead after the flopped movies that came before. Nobody was interested in seeing the elements revisited yet again.
The movie was also released at the same time as Joker, which dominated cinema seats at the time. It lost over 100 million dollars overall for the film production studios involved.
