Arnold Is Back for Terminator 5

[cloverfan98]

I'd thought I'd post this here. A long rant by one of the writers of T3 and T4 about why those films were bad and even though he wrote them it's not his fault they were bad.

of course... "i just helped create the entire spine of the film upon which the film is structured... but it turned out ****, not my fault" what a bhenchod

I love Arnold he will always be one of my favorites but I don't really care to see him in another Terminator film either, or really another Terminator film in general.

I love the idea though of Arnold being in another Conan film as an older Conan. It's funny some of you mention him "clinging" to his past and he should move on. How is that any different from any other sequel or reboot to a successful franchise? It's not at all different if your in the movie business and you know a franchise is profitable you will continue it, which is why we get more sequels and reboots these days than we get original ideas.

 

[Warhammer]

Old Conan is such an awesome premise. Some distant sequels are awesome.

 

[dude stannis]

Well, we all laughed at the prospect of Rocky 6 and Rambo 4. I don't doubt Arnold can prove us wrong too.

 

[Warhammer]

Yeah, it seems like Stallone had a good thing going for him to rebound his career that Schwarzenegger can follow. Rambo and Rocky Balboa exceeded so many people's expectations.

 

[The Dark Defender]

Christian Bale to return as John Connor and Tom Hardy as T-Bane 2000.

It's on.

I already love this movie.

I want a Baneinator action figure immediately.

 

[dude stannis]

I would poop my pants if that where to happen.

T3 wasn't great alright. At times it didn't really feel like a continuation of the Terminator franchise at all. I mean, the difference in T1 and T2 is vast (thanks mostly to the huge budget increase and better effects) but there still a similar tone running through the films, this feeling of threat and a hunter who will not stop until he gets what he wants. I never really got that same sense of threat in T3 despite the film following the same formula of having a Terminator hunting John Connor.

I remember watching the bar scene near the start of T3 where Arnie comes in looking for clothes and ends up walking out with the star shaped sunglasses on. It just felt like a SNL sketch of the T2 bar scene (which was played much more seriously and with much more impact) and at that point, I just thought..................... this film isn't going to end well.

T3 is a parody of T2 with a small story advancement during the last 15 minutes. And everyone would've loved it if Leslie Nielsen had played the T-800.

 

[dude stannis]

And everyone would've loved it if Leslie Nielsen had played the T-800.

That applies to every Terminator movie.

 

[Gianakin_]

That applies to every movie.

Fixed.

 

[dude stannis]

Leslie Nielsen as Bane. Want.

 

[Gianakin_]

Why Bane? Go Catwoman. Dare.

 

[StarLord]

O.J. is Catwoman.

The first two Terminator movies are both in my top 20 favorite movies ever. Easily one of my favorite movie mythoses. But one can't help to be awfully cautious and skeptical after two big burns (T3 and TS).

 

[elgaz]

So it seems our worst fears are true, Arnold claims he will be back in T5 to play a Terminator.

"I'll be ba--AHH, MY BACK!!"

"I'll be ba--AHH, MY BACK!!"

Well I adored the use of a pun like that in Spider-Man 2.

 

[Gianakin_]

You know what? If the movie ACTUALLY questions the nature of the T-800 and it actually deals with an aging Terminator, I can definitely dig it.

But if it goes the TS way (where it was originally supposed to tackle the human vs the robotic nature via Skynet's studies on humanity to create the replacement for the T-600 by making it more human) and drops the themes, then no thanks.

 

[Thundercrack85]

The T-800 is as obsolete as Arnold.

 

[Whiskey Tango]

Will say again that Arnie could be picking much better scripts than these rehash jobs. Sure Sly generated a lot of goodwill with Rocky 6 but Arnie never had a franchise with the heart and long-lasting appeal that Rocky did.

[StarLord]

I'm more interested in seeing him in the upcoming movie 'Sabotage' with Sam Worthington and Mireille Enos. Strange cast or what?!

 

[Bruce Malone]

I don't see any way for arnold to portray an "in-prime" t-800? It would look ludicrous regardless of how much make-up they put on his face.

He looked ollld in the last stand or at least close to his actual age. There better be some twist in that regards. I thought him playing a t-800 10 years ago was pushing it.
