The possibility was there but they just couldn't do it!

Terminator Salvation is on papers an excellent idea, the back story of how the resistance manage to send Kyle Reese back in time in order for the events of the first film to take place.
And to be honest the effects and battle scenes are very well made and compared with Terminator 3 and Genisys, it is a far better film from both in both characters and action. But there is the elephant in the room which is that the action scenes are few and far between, most of the characters are paper-thin and the story is quit jangled.
In all honesty the film could have been really enjoyable, if they focused more in the current (before time travel) movie environment, we might had something like Rogue One, but history is not written with ifs and the huge issues of production and studio intervention dammed the project. Christian Bale reputation might suffered the worst due to a break down he had in the set, but let's be real we all faced a disappointing project ,which is stress-full, exhausting and irritating and few of us in some point we screamed and cursed our lungs out because of that, so Mr. Bale is not here to blame for that mess!!
In the end Salvation is for me the point where everyone must understand that the Terminator franchise has no stem anymore and any idea for a sequel, prequel , etc. must be deleted and try something else that works.
