Ilubu said:well honestly haveing arnie in all three movies was not the brightest of ideas,
Ilubu said:arnie was just one model and from the flashback in the first movie it is safe to say that the future was not overrun with his face..
Ilubu said:having every single terminator runing around with his face kind of negates the reason for making them look human.
Ilubu said:they are perfectly capable of finding someone else to fit his shoes
Warbler said:wrong.
Without Arnie these movies will fail. They won't feel like Terminator movies.
That's like making a Planet of the Apes movie without Roddy McDowell, or a Die Hard movie without Bruce Willis.

Fall 2007: The Latest Word on the Hottest Pilots
With the upfronts mere moments (OK, days) away, here is the Hollywood Reporter's report on where each network stands regarding new shows... and some surprising returns:
Fox
Dramas: The Sarah Connor Chronicles is eyed as a companion piece to 24.

According to the new Entertainment Weekly to hit the stands next week, there's a very good chance that Arnold's likeness will at least be seen in the new films.
"It looks like California's Governor, the original Terminator, has agreed to at least three more installments of the franchise he made famous, but don't expect to see him on the set.
Derek Anderson, head of Halcyon, the studio that recently acquired the rights to the Terminator franchise, confirmed that Arnold Schwarzenegger has licensed his appearance for three upcoming sequels. "We'll be using computer altered stock images of Arnold. That way we can span his entire career, from the frightening 80's era Terminator to the ice cool T2 version."
And it won't stop there. Annabelle Gross, Schwarzenegger's rep hinted further involvement in the series. "He's signed on as Executive Producer for all three pictures, and we are in talks for further appearance licensing". How much further? Nothing's confirmed, but sources close to the Governor hinted that for additional funds he may be willing to provide his facial features in the form of a cast.
Anderson commented "That would save us some money on expensive CGI".
If you haven't already heard...The Halcyon Co., a recently formed, privately financed film development, production and financing company headed by co-CEOs Derek Anderson and Victor Kubicek, has acquired the franchise rights to the popular movie series from C2's Mario Kassar and Andrew Vajna, intending to make a new trilogy that would anchor their movie company.
The deal is said to be in the tens of millions of dollars, according to the Hollywood Reporter. "Terminator 4" will be based on a script by John Brancato and Michael Ferris, which was part of the transaction. Halcyon plans to immediately begin preproduction on the film. While no distribution agreement has been set, Halcyon is hoping that "T4" will be ready for release in the first half of 2009.
The deal includes the right to produce any future "Terminator" films, as well as all future merchandising and licensing rights, certain future revenue derived from "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines," as well as certain rights in the television project "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" and the sole right to produce all future "Terminator" projects in any new or existing media.
Halcyon pursued the "Terminator" rights aggressively for several months, knowing that the series is one of the few recognizable properties out there not in the hands of a major studio. Halcyon also is concentrating on a merchandising and licensing push for the property.
Moritz Borman, who executive produced "T3" as the then-CEO of Intermedia Films, the movie's co-production financial partner, will act as producer on "T4." Former PolyGram Films marketing president Peter D. Graves will be executive producer and oversee marketing of the picture. Kubicek and Anderson will co-produce.
Well, James Cameron already wanted a shape-shifting Terminator in The Terminator, but due to the special effects of that time, it was impossible.stamper said:If anyone was there in 1986, Cameron already have written a draft for the sequel, that he wanted to shoot post the Aliens release.
It featured Arnold as both a good and a bad Terminator, and Sarah was killed in the movie. The bad terminator was the one who put on armageddon day, and it ended like T3 does. I've been dying to get my hands on a script ever since. No luck.

your thinking too small, number 3 honestly didnt feel very much like a terminator movie and that had nothing to do with arnold... James Cameron was not part of the project and you can tell, it just wasnt writen or directed like the first 2..
get a solid director, a solid story, a good actor and the movie can be just as good without arnie

the same could be said for Robert Patrick
Interesting. I posted a topic about it on our Terminator forum, because I never heard anything about it before.stamper said:This info was obtained straight from Cameron himself by a friend of mine back then, and printed. Cameron didn't do T2 with Hemdale because of bad relationship.
