news culture This Hollywood superstar is turning her back on the saga that made her famous. And we can’t blame him…
Sometimes you’d rather let certain cult sagas die than do anything with them, and Arnold Schwarzenegger won’t disagree.
The end for Terminator? Arnold Schwarzenegger turns away from the saga
It was in 1984 that one of the greatest sagas in the history of cinema was born, of course we called it “Terminator”. Today, nearly 40 years later, that license still rocks our daily lives. It has to be said that James Cameron’s franchise was as spectacular as it was meaningful in the first two episodes. Unfortunately, and that Despite the success of 2003’s Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, the sequels never managed to match the strength of the first games.
The first three films were excellent. I didn’t play in the fourth game (Salvation) because I was governor at the time. Then the fifth (Genisys) and the sixth (Dark Fate) weren’t enough for me. I knew that in advance because they just weren’t very well written. Arnold Schwarzenegger
As you may already know, with Dark Fate, the latest episode, Tim Miller has completely ignored the events of episodes 3, 4 and 5, which obviously didn’t go over well with the majority of fans, but neither did they So Arnold Schwarzenegger, who decided to turn his back on the saga.
The franchise isn’t over yet. But I’m done with her. I got the clear and unmistakable message that everyone wants to move forward with a different issue when it comes to Terminator. Someone must have a great idea. Arnold Schwarzenegger
However, the franchise’s lead man isn’t sulking about the license, adding, “Terminator is largely at the root of my success, which is why I’ve always been very attached to the saga.”
A new Terminator by James Cameron?
Due to Dark Fate’s commercial failure (it lost over $122.6 million at the box office), there’s little chance we’ll see another Terminator movie any time soon, but still: JamesCameron himself, the author of the first two Terminator films and Avatar 2, would be willing to put the cover back on to restore the franchise’s image.
If I were to do another Terminator movie, to maybe revive the franchise, which is currently being discussed, even if nothing has been decided yet, I would go for artificial intelligence a lot more than crazy robotic villains. JamesCameron
