As a HUGE fan of the Terminator series (Judgement Day in particular), this both excites and saddens me. On the one hand, I want to see more of it. But, on the other hand, how can it possibly live up to the earlier films and the larger-than-life Arnold Schwarzenegger?

I do love a good post-apocalyptic movie and will probably see it no matter what. I just have to do in with the mind set that it is *not* going to be the same movie.

ben:

the franchise can work without schww..shewar...schwarrt...arnold.

dark horse comics used to own the license to the terminator, and put out a slew of quality mini-series based on the franchise.

if you're really a fan of the concept, i'd highly suggest you check some of them out. it's been a while since i've looked at them, but i remember "terminator: secondary objectives" being a good one.

"terminator: end game" was another decent one.

if you come across Superman vs. Terminator, skip it. it was bad :)

actually here are better links (and most of these series didn't feature any terminators with likenesses to arnold... which is why i say the franchise can stand on its own) :)

I agree. The franchise can live completely well without Arnold and in some respects I think it could do a lot better now without him.

Hrm, I'm not so sure I like this idea. T3 was a big letdown IMO. T2 is still one of my favorite movies of all-time. Some things are better left alone in their prime, rather than dragging it out and ruining the overall concept...
