So much for "Hasta la vista" . . .

If IMDb tells true, a Terminator 4 is now in the works! But it apparently won't star Governor Arnold, and the producers have openly stated that it's largely an attempt to "reinvent the franchise."

Not to ask a silly question, but where can the Terminator franchise go after 3? Judgment Day finally occurred, albeit late, and John Connor fulfilled his destiny to become humanity's savior. The circle was completed. So what's left but general filler material that may or may not be relevant to the overall big picture of the Terminator storyline? If we look at the sequels already in existence, Terminator 3 was all right, but not a necessary installment into the series. Terminator 2, on the other hand, was downright phenomenal! And like The Godfather, Part II, it damn near outdid the original. I personally think the series should have ended after 2, since it completed the epic vision originally conceived by James Cameron, but I can live with the third movie serving as the conclusion. So again, why do we need a fourth movie?

But while we're on the subject of sequels, one reporter doesn't seem to care much for sequels in general, though his beef is largely with Indy 4 rather than Terminator 4.
