Christian Bale signed on for Terminator trilogy

[seigneur_rayden]

I don't like Bale at all I hated him in Shaft and in 3:10 to Yuma he was too stupid.

Any franchise film these days requires a signon for a trilogy

You mean for actors right? Jon Favreau revealed he was only signed on to direct one Iron Man.

Bale kicks ass, he did have his downer movies (shaft), but T-4 might not be a right for him or right for anyone. Terminator series should have stopped at 2

That was before it made nearly 300 mil in 2 weeks.

Another producer, Victor Kubicek, says he'd doubted whether Bale would be up for another trilogy, on the heels of his commitment to the Batman movies.

So does this mean that Bale is definitely doing a third Batman?

Though I enjoyed Ironman ok, I would rather watch Swingers any day of the week. Would like him to make another movie like that.

As far as Bale, I enjoy lot of his work but would also like to see him stay in films like American Psycho, The Machinist, or Red Dawn then make 3 Batmans and 3 Terminator movies. But I guess hard to turn down such offers.

Sorry. I don't even know what to say to that. "Don't Like, Hate, Too Stupid." Your command of the English language is stunning.

Add one movie critic to the universe as we currently understand it.

My, my... Marcusarilius, are we a bit snappy today?

I think I know your reasons, but you see...
there's a particular roman saying one should never forget:

I disapprove of your words, but until the end of my life I will vindicate your right to speak them!

It's a tough task, but we all should give it try...

Here, here! Why do people truncate a 3 letter word down to 1? I understand truncating a 10 letter word down to 1-2 letters, but how much precious time does it save to cut for down to 4???

Anyway, original topic. I enjoyed all three terminators, and felt that yes, terminator 3 was even good, it kept with the plot, and drove the franchise into the future. Hopefully it was just a speed bump on the way to a better future trilogy. I would love to see more of the resistance in the future, you would get all these slight glimpses of it in the first couple movies.

The franchise itself has a huge untapped resevoir of potential that I hope the Sarah Connor Chronicles and the future movies can take advantage of. I would like to see the new movies take into account that the past is being written in the SCC and avoid anything to do with that timeline, and let the series take care of that. Same holds true with SCC, it should stay away from the future and let the movies take care of that aspect.
