How do people expect movies to look? Of course they look new. They're made today. Just like 90s looked newer than 80s and 80s looked newer than the 70s etc. It just sounds like more "back in the day" talk when I see this.

It's a stupid blind nostalgia and nothing else. Anyone with rational mind will be able to figure out that its impossible to make movie in 2010s to look like a movie made in 1980s or something. I am not talking about setpieces or effects, just about picture and overall feeling.

Tell that to so called "old fans" AKA "True fans" AKA "elitists".
Even when they (some of them) nominally understand why its done that way, they still deny it and act like studios doing it out of spite to piss them off.
And I think
Wildcat was talking about picture and not only use of CGI.
I can be mildly irritated, when stuff in the new movie don't much one in the past movie without any explanation, but, when it comes to Terminator, there have been so many (unexplaned) changes and retcons, so I don't care about particulars anymore. Just give me plasma guns, blue filter and atmosphere of desperation. Of course, ideally I'd prefer TG to have the same 80s atmosphere as the first Terminator movie, but its impossible, so I take what I can. At least, its not generic desert warfare like in Salvation.
