Well, the near extermination of the human race was a good cliffhanger. I hope we get to see the beginning of the resistance.

Unless they're going to take it back to the dark fatalistic tones of the original movie then I don't know why are they bothering?

If not even Arnie's back this time then...

I had an idea for T4, I don't really see the point in making a script out of it if it's never going to be directed, although I thought it was pretty good. I have it written down in a notebook, maybe I'll go back and check it out later.

Maybe they just want your money, also it's the years of the sequel. I guess like Blade Trinity they need a franchise name to slap on a new project to suck in the fans which is smart idea, underhanded but smart.

I enjoyed T3 mostly because it was a fun popcorn flick, T2 was serious in a way and I don't honestly remember much about the original.

Are you sure Kurt Wimmer is the director? IMDB says Jonathan Mostow.

I liked T3.. a good, numb out-and-watch-things-get-blown up flick.

Quoted from Old Time Wesley Maybe they just want your money

I think this is the reason... I daresay 'art' won't be an issue in this choice of project.

T3 was fun in a dumb way, but it's distressing to see how much of a self-parody the character has become.

"Talk to the hand!" - please...  

I still need to see T3!  The first two movies were so good!  Are they actually making a fourth?

i want to kill Mostow for making T3!

Yeah I don't understand how the producers of such a world-renowned franchise could go ahead and make a stupid parody of it. I think it just degraded the whole Terminator series and made a joke of it. Man, I'd LOVE James Cameron to take on a fourth film and make it go out with a bang!  

Yeah, Cameron coming back would be welcome...

Hell, just about any new film from Cameron would be welcome.

Some interesting news from IMDB.

"Hollywood action man Arnold Schwarzenegger may be set to juggle his role as California Governor with a return to the big screen - he has reportedly agreed to star in two big money sequels. The actor-turned-politician has agreed to re-team with Oscar-winning director James Cameron in a fourth Terminator installment in addition to a sequel to True Lies, according to website Moviehole.net."

Also.

John Rosengrant, who is a special effects expert at Stan Winston Studios, confirms work on Terminator 4 is at a very early stage: "It's too early to figure out what a new Terminator would look like, or anything like that. You see the script and what spark comes from that, (talk) with the director and see what the vision is. It does no good to dream it up unless you write a treatment and try to get out there and sell it yourself."

Big Update. The franchise has been sold. An emerging film company has acquired the franchise rights to the popular movie series and is intending to make a new trilogy.

The firm has plans to begin immediate preproduction on "Terminator 4," with hopes that it will be ready for release in the first half of 2009.

Head over to CNN for more.

A Terminator flick without Arnold is like Indiana Jones without Harrison Ford; it just stinks

I'm probably in a very tiny minority, here, but I liked T3 and consider it the 'smartest' of the trilogy.

I don't see where Arnie (I call him that because I don't know how to spell Schwawztenwanneizzger) would fit into T4 (I call it that because I don't know how to spell Schwawztenwanneizzger).  The terminator robots were very basic and extremely robot looking.  The ones that looked human were still a few generations away.

If Arnie (I call him that because...nevermind) was to appear in T4, it would probably be a very minor role where he would play a human that the computers would model the future Terminators after.

Actually, I agree with you Phil. I personally thought T3 was insanely underrated.

"If Arnie (I call him that because...nevermind) was to appear in T4, it would probably be a very minor role where he would play a human that the computers would model the future Terminators after."- Phil

That would work really well. But Arnie wouldn't necessarly (i spelled that wrong) have to have a minor role.
