Buy the ‘Terminator’ Franchise During its Half-Off Sale
Things keep getting worse for producers of Terminator: Salvation. Between Christian Bale’s blow up, McG’s pissing contest with Michael Bay, and the controversy over Moon Bloodgood’s handbra, they’ve received a ton of free press that they couldn’t spin into box office gold. Now the Halcyon Holding Group has filed for bankruptcy and is ready to sell the franchise rights to the highest bidder.
Apparently all the big studios are lining up to secure the rights. But why? The last two movies were pretty abysmal and The Sarah Connor Chronicles never found the audience it deserved. With Arnie indisposed and special effects breakthroughs having plateaued it’s time to face the sad, cold truth. We as a people have to face the fact that killer robots are sooo over. Let us all begrudgingly tear down our Chopping Mall posters and set fire to our I, Robot theater-lobby standees. Today will usher in the age of the friendly (probably farting) robot.
But honestly, is there any way to breathe life into Terminator? Preferably one that doesn’t involve putting Peter Berg behind the camera? Let us know your thoughts. (The Financial Times)
