He's back ... again: Schwarzenegger to star in Terminator reboot

I'd ask if this franchise could be put to bed already, but if Arnold is coming back it might be by 9:15.
Paramount has announced a June 2015 release date for the fifth "Terminator" movie, with Schwarzenegger back in a starring role.

This time he comes for John Connor's half-brother, the maid's kid.

 

I didn't even know there was a fourth Terminator, nor did I care.

 

I didn't mind "The Last Stand." He was playing an aging sheriff who took the job because he wanted peace and quiet before retirement. Sure, it was over the top, but what should one expect?

But to play the Terminator again? No.

 

Wow. I had heard about the reboot, but not that they'd bring back Schwarzenegger. He's far too old to play that role again.

Hell, even Brent Spiner knew when he was getting too old to keep playing Data on Star Trek.

 

It would be cool if he played an outdated Terminator model.

 

We'll have to agree to disagree on that. To me, it would seem as silly as the Transformer that had to use a cane in one of Michael Bay's movies. (The second one, I think).

 

Rebooting the movie at all is stupid.

 

I'm curious how they will pull this off... I think they could easily CGI the T-1000 to look like it did in 1991 and Schwarzenegger would be providing little more than the voice.

 

I just heard on the radio the studio said it is "not sure" Arnold will be in the movie. Sounds like a Conan the Barbarian thing, starting over with a new actor.

 

He did in Terminator 3.

 

True. I was envisioning some Frankenstein-liked thing they slapped together off the scrap heap.
