Finally, some Terminator 5 news!

Terminator 5

It's about damn time! It's been two years since the last one!

With Arnold no longer in office and his announcement to get back into showbiz, it wasn't long for rumors to start spreading about the fate of Terminator 5.

As of right now, the rights to the Terminator franchise are up in the air (since they can't seem to stay in one damn spot!). Universal Studios is possibly thinking to purchase the rights and I think they're hoping that dear Arnie would making a return to star as the titular character, or at least make a cameo.

It is also believed that if Universal does to this, they would hire the Fast and the Furious 3, 4 and 5's director and writer, Justin Lin (director) and Chris Morgan (writer), to step in. This is where I have a problem. I don't want some mediocre director. This is the Terminator series! You can't just had it over to someone who's filmed car movies. If you can't give it back to James Cameron (although he refuses to take it), Jonathan Mostow, or McG, then give it someone with a little more credibility like Joe Johnston, Jon Favreau, or …. Steven Spielberg. ;)

I want a Terminator 5 more than anything, but it needs to live up to the series. If it can't do that, then why have one?
