This is an excellent idea: it's not something I could watch, but a separated action spin-off is an excellent idea to give people who mainly want action what they want. And it would generate an huge merchandise.



McG?
Don't blame him for the bad movie t4 was, blame bale: he asked the plot to be changed cause his character wasn't so important...
I'm not saying T4 'd have been a masterwork without the egocentric/presumptuous/capricious/whimsical kid, but, if he hadn't influenced so much the plot (or if someone hadn't allowed his requests to be listened), the plot would have at least been coherent and complete... while they had to change (and mess up) it with the result of a nonsensical story.
I don't like the movie, but, as I said, I liked its first part (the one without bale), so I think it would have been much better without his influence...
...I really don't understand how he can still get jobs...

We think TSCC does owe more to the fans and another project would be great too. There are rumors of a straight to dvd movie...

We also believe Megan to be "safer hands".

However we do believe that T5 should be a continuation and not a reboot. There are 3 films it could continue from T2, T3 or TS.

Terminator Fans deserve better treatment from Hollywood.

For the moment they're only rumors.
Of course, for a long time one of the reasons has been Pacificor (the ex-owner of the Terminator Franchise), that, not being a film maker but a financial company, wasn't interested to produce it (or a movie) and was taking as less risks as possible to avoid ruining the commercial value of the franchise.
Now all is different, since Annapurna IS interested in using the rights, and is known for good quality productions... We'll see what Warner Bros thinks about.


I wasn't talking about a reboot, I was talking about a prequel TO TSCC, not to T1.
A reboot could be an interesting alternative to have completely new characters (no Connors), so maybe a story about Skynet's creators, with inverted roles (with future Skynet sending back a protector).


TS? If you mean Salvation, I personally hope they'll completely ignore it.




I really hope this time writers could be able to do what they want, not being influenced by actors's caprices.
