    Terminator 5 Happening...According to McG

    After a guilty verdict from fanboys, McG will be put down in a public execution by this Terminator.The worst thing to happen to Terminator: Salvation was: 1) J.J. Abrams' Star Trek clicking with the general public as much as it did and basically stealing its thunder weeks prior to release and 2) McG's mouth.

    Sure I liked the film, and thought he did an acceptably decent job. But the fact that he openly compared it to Batman Begins and The Dark Knight was just plain dumb. And I won't get into the multiple times he's lied his ass off and then flat out caught doing so because I've gone through that before.

    Now the director reveals to IESB that he's currently prepping Terminator 5 along with 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: Captain Nemo which is expected to begin production this fall in Australia.

    Granted this is 100% coming from McG, people. So I'll wait to hear from the trades or sites like IESB, Latino Review, etc. (i.e. people with legit track-records in the scoop department) backing-up these claims until I believe it. That said, I'm not holding my breath on this one. Nor should you.

    I just hope they don't do what they are planning, w/ bringing back the time travel theme and keep it set during the future war.

    Color me uninterested in a McG T5 after seeing his T4.

    Wait a sec, I thought we'd already voted with our wallets that we don't want another Terminator.

    I can't imagine WB or anybody else going forward with another Terminator after Salvation crashed and burned at the box office.

    Why is there smoke in McG's ass?
