Tech issue updating site today necessitate super-brief updates. Apologies.
TERMINATOR SALVATION hit Blu-Ray and standard DVD last week (HERE
).
Director McG recently conducted a TERMINATOR SALVATION BD Live event (viewers can watch their Blu-Rays at home while interacting w/ filmmakers live, via a chat-like structure).
During the conversation, he indicated an intent to make two more TERMINATOR films.
He didn't account for how he would remain attached to these potential projects given that the current holders of TERMINATOR rights are about to auction them off. Also, between TSAL only doing aiight at the box office (didn't make tons, didn't totally die)...and the film's tepid-to-negative reception by audiences...McG remaining attached to further TERMINATOR films would seem a tough argument to make at best.
Evidently, McG is also attributed with sharing the following sublime insight into filmmaking during the chat: "There's two elements that go into filmmaking. There's sound, and there's the picture.". Should we give him the benefit of the doubt & assume this statement was intended to be taken in some greater context? Probably not.
