Terminator 4 is going to be PG-13! :(
May 5 2008, 4:52 PM EDT Is it just me or shouldnt T4 be a rated R movie. I dunno but almost 20 years since the 1st movie came out where we first got a glimpse at the war, and now when were finnaly gonna see a movie on the war we are going to get a campy 13 year old friendly action movie. When someone gets shot by a lazor there should be blood and when someone is in a dangerous situation like this war they should swear. I just dont get why there doing this? to make more money probably. I mean we already got that crappy T3, and now when we get to see the war were not gonna see it the way it should be or how it was invisioned in the first two movies. Am I alone on this? 2 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

When I think PG-13 I think STUDIO TAMPERING to get the biggest box office possible. Die Hard 4, anyone? When I think T3, Alien 3, Alien Resurrection, Alien Vs Predator 1&2, I want to throw up. 1 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

No wonder I was so confused with that film, here’s me thinking it was just crap! No, wait a minute (processing that Charlie’s Angels was a comedy) Nope! Its still crap! 2 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

May 6 2008, 8:25 AM EDT "Terminator 4 is going to be a BIG hit so long as they stick to Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles"I glanced through your post quickly, and I actually mistook it as "Terminator 4 is going to be a BIG shit so long as..." lol Anyway it'll probably be horrible. Made by McG, PG13 (compared to T2's "Back away from the door, or I'll pump him full of this shit I swear!")...it just keeps getting worse Not even Christian Bale can save the show, me thinks. TSCC should end the series 1 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

May 6 2008, 2:02 PM EDT It looks like part of their motivation for this is so they can sell Terminator Happy Meal toys. No that is not a joke. Halcyon’s CEO says: “Our merchandising program will be the largest to date for 'The Terminator.” Remember those collectible glasses McDonalds sold to promote Batman Forever? I’m imaging something like that. Now you too can drink out of a Terminator’s head. Gulp! 3 out of 4 found this valuable. Do you? |

No that is not a joke...Gulp!"Good thing it wasn't a joke, because it's not funny. They can't be serious - a marketing tie-in with McDonalds? Just had a mental flash of the ad campaign: little kids merrily frolicking with cheap plastic Terminator toys, maybe to a snappy rap lyric from Common. Collect the whole set! If this is true, somebody shoot me and get it over with. 1 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Collect the whole set!That is a quote from the Halcyon CEO. His vision of the new Terminator franchise. You can see where this is going. Rather than carrying on the tradition of T1 and T2, and the Terminator franchise in general, they are watering down the franchise so they can market to the teenies and younger to get them to buy that Terminator sippy cup. 1 out of 2 found this valuable.

May even explain their choice of movie director. While there’s nothing wrong with making money, how you do it is important. Color me disappointed. 4 out of 5 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: Terminator 4 is going to be PG-13! :(
May 6 2008, 10:09 PM EDT This has a small chance of being good, it has a good story with good leads (wouldnt mind if they do cast Josh Brolin), but its gonna be a McG movie, and its gonna be PG-13, and its with Common. I cant say exactly which way it will go. I dont know I just always pictured a Terminator movie focused on the war as a 2 1/2 R rated war epic. I just hope they change there minds, or declare when it comes to DVD they are going to release an unrated version. 1 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Again, this looks more like possible AvP "quality" than James Cameron quality. 0 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |
