John Connor, the T-800, Grace and the Rev-9 may all be dead, but a dark future still awaits planet earth, and its up to Sarah Connor and the new saviour of mankind Dani Ramos to stop it from ever happening.
There's scope for a sequel, but there's also closure at the same time. Sarah Connor spent 20 years mourning her son while exacting revenge on the last remaining Terminators in existence, now she's got a new purpose in life - to protect mankind's new saviour. Given all that's happened to her, that's just about as happy of an ending as we could hope for for her.
