Very good, although I think he'd fare better as a terminator character!

Razzy · 12-03-2007, 12:43 PM

Great news.

I'm starting to get a little hyped for this.

tiger roach · 12-03-2007, 12:54 PM

Who will be the terminator? Ahnold is too old and busy gobernatoring.

The gal from the third movie was pretty hot but it is hard for a girl that cute to seem evil.

Wait, what am I saying?

mystiksuicide · 12-03-2007, 01:11 PM

It's good to see them continuing the terminator series, but who will play the next terminator? Who they pick to play can make it or break it.

nhaase · 12-03-2007, 01:13 PM

I liked the pick when I first read about it, and I think the movie will be good w/ the same core writers, but McG is the director, which just sucks. I don't know who thought it was a good idea to get the Charlie's Angels director, but they should be shot.

Lord_Stewie · 12-03-2007, 01:25 PM

There is a rumor that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is considering to take the terminator role.

Zotar · 12-03-2007, 01:28 PM

Why don't they get Ed Furlong back to be John Connor? He was much better than Nick Bahl in my opinion.

He does the show Chuck too, and that's one of my favorite shows right now.... so it could go either way IMHO

OH GOD NO! WHY CHRISTIAN BALE I HAVE SO MUCH MORE RESPECT FOR YOU. WARNER BROS. HAS KILLED TERMINATOR!! LET IT DIE!!! If they are going to do another terminator they should atleast give Cameron creative control over his creation. Because this new show on fox is just terrible.

Probably because he wouldn't play the military commander John very well, and because they want to reboot the franchise. Bale will be excellent. Maybe they can do that X-Men 3 trick on Michael Biehn though, because we obviously want to see him sent back

For real! I want to see how that works - "All right soldier, since you seem to have the screaming blind hornies for my MOM I will send you back to save her."

Bale is a very good actor and just as important he knows how to pick scripts (most of the time). Glad the franchise is still strong enough to attract an A-list actor. Coincidentally I just bought T2 on Blu-ray.

miokti · 12-03-2007, 07:11 PM

They can do a CGI of a younger Beihn, I mean, the Beowulf CGI's look real enough. Also, the Terminators in this movie might not need to look like ahnold yet, since it would be the models that Kyle (Beihn) talked to Sarah about: the ones with rubbery skin that you can easily tell apart from real humans. Keep in mind that in the first movie, ahnold's model was the "newest" one.

IvanDrago · 12-03-2007, 07:15 PM

No Ahnold no watchiee. Seriously, can't they just let a movie franchise die when it is obvious the reason for the success of the franchise won't be contributing to it in the future?

Storm · 12-03-2007, 07:33 PM

Look forward to new information as this progesses. I am a fan of the franchise.

Amel · 12-03-2007, 07:34 PM

thats great

Bale is a great actor

DeeChizzle · 12-03-2007, 07:51 PM

I think the failure of the new TV series will terminate the production of this movie. Of course this only a prediction.

tron3 · 12-03-2007, 07:55 PM

It's obvious they want to squeeze every last ounce of blood and respect from Terminator until it self Terminates.

Diehards, such as myself, will follow the series religiously. Heck, I plan on recording every last episode.
