But what if we made a swarm of them, a queen and a cute little girl for Ripley to rescue at the end?" Then he went and made Aliens, the superior film. Both were great movies, but they could be better.Īnd in 1986, Cameron told Scott, "Hey, you've got something pretty cool here with this xenomorph.

He took something great and injected even more action into it, making the movie better.

But if I have a bowl of popcorn on a lazy Saturday afternoon and the choice between the first movies in those series or their immediate sequels? I'm going to pick T2 and Aliens every time. It's not that the original Terminator and Alien are bad movies. T2 is superior to the original, just as Aliens is superior to Alien. But what fans seem split on is which of the two is the most superior. We got a new entry in the Terminator franchise last week, one with Linda Hamilton nonetheless.Īnd while this one looks to have decent reviews as I write this, I think it's worth looking back at a couple of Terminator sequels that get way too much hate.Įveryone seems to agree that the first two Terminator films are some of the greatest science fiction films of all time. Intermedia is also behind K-19, the upcoming Harrison Ford submarine thriller and Basic, which will reunite Pulp Fiction co-stars John Travolta and Samuel L Jackson.It's perhaps Arnold Schwarzenegger's most famous role, a killer cyborg sent from the future to either kill or protect John Connor, leader of the resistance. Director John Mostow brought on long-time collaborators John Brancato and Michael Ferris (The Game) to write the script. Intermedia's Nigel Sinclair, Guy East and Moritz Borman will executive produce, while Mario Kassar, Andy Vajna and Hal Lieberman will produce the movie. Previous director James Cameron sold his rights in the property to the first Terminator's co-writer and producer Gale Anne Hurd for $1 on the condition that T3 would only be made with Mostow at the helm. Terminator 3 has been long in the planning ever since T2 grossed some $520m (£367m) worldwide. Either figure is still some way ahead of Pearl Harbor's $135m (£95.3m), currently the most expensive green-lighted project ever. The bidding war so far seems to be between Paramount, Disney, Universal and possibly DreamWorks.īidders for the film were told the cost of the film would be $180m (£127m), although it seems possible that may be reduced to $165m (£116.5m).

The salary should not be a problem for any studio bidding for the US rights to the film however as the budgetary breakdown will not be revealed although the price stands at $50m (£35.30m) against 50% of gross receipts in exchange for US theatrical, TV, VHS and DVD rights. The Intermedia-financed film will also pay out U-571 director Mostow upward of $5m )£3.53m) for stepping into James Cameron's shoes.Īrnie's previous highest payout was the $25m (£17.65m) he received for Batman and Robin five years ago. For his role in the film, Schwarzenegger will be paid an estimated $30m (£21.18m).

Set ten years after T2: Judgement Day, the film will find John Connor (played by Ed Norton) and his cyborg protector up against a female Terminator, a Terminatrix of sorts, whose powers and morphing abilities outdo anything seen before. The third Terminator film will at last start filming next April under the directorial helm of Jonathan Mostow, with Arnold Schwarzenegger again in the lead role of the T-800 cyborg.
