Coming: Terminator 4: Rise of the McG
snip:
Terminator 4 is really the movie we've been waiting for and that Terminator 3 failed to deliver: it's after the apocalypse and John Connor is organizing the surviving humans to resist Skynet's army of robots. I imagine this would be the Terminator origin story -- the first time a human looking robot is used to infiltrate the ranks of people. There's something delightfully Planet of the Apes about taking the series into its own backstory like this.
...End...

1. There's also the Terminator TV series coming up
set during the time between 2 and 3.

Of course, I don't expect it to last long... ever since Firefly, none of the cast members from that show have been able to get on another show that lasts for more than a few episodes. Seems to be a curse. And one of them is in the Terminator show. :\

4. I've seen the pilot
The Terminator is terrible, you wouldn't think that someone could make Ahnold look like DeNiro, but this guy manages it every scene.

That being said, they've worked in some neat things, and it's got some potential. It was more entertaining than that Journeyman show, anyway.

6. You do have evidence, actually...
It's going to be directed by McG. That's only a few steps acove Michael Bay.
