It seems with the release of the Terminator Salvation Bluray, that during the director’s commentary McG gushed over his plans to run with the franchise and is apparently convinced that T5 and T6 are his to create.
Gizmodo blogged the Blu-Ray Terminator Salvation live commentary and found out that director McG thinks he’s making TERMINATOR 5 and also TERMINATOR 6. I kid you not. But the fact of the matter is Halcyon is still trying to find potential buyers who for some reason still think there’s still some pulse left in TERMINATOR franchise…
He just announced that he’s making another Terminator movie. Seriously.
He said he’s making one after that.
And now McG is being coy about making another one?
And now he’s talking about a second or third movie again
Now granted these are things McG said during the commentary for the BluRay release, and it is very possible that with the recent turn of events that he might have already changed his tune on the certainty of his involvement with Terminator.
Salvation was a nail in the coffin for me. Not as bad as part 3, but it just punctuated that telling more of this story is pointless.
As for McG doing them? Frankly if the story was better I wouldn’t even care if McG did do them, but where is the story?
McG, like the rest of us, will have to wait until Halycon finds a new owner after the garage sale. I expected to hear news of offers rolling in, but strangely not surprised its quiet on that front.
