As many of you have (presumably) heard, James Cameron himself said that he would be producing what should be a reboot of the Terminator series. You might be thinking that this would be unnecessary or that we don't need more reboots, and, while I do understand those concerns, I think it's a good thing. I mean, really, do we want Genisys to be the last movie in the franchise? Do we really want to have the Terminator saga end on a note that sour?
Think about that for a second, I'll give you some time.
So far, it's been announced that a reboot was going to happen, and that Tim Miller's name is floating around as the project's attached director. Production's set to start in October this year, with Arnold himself saying that the project was underway.
Even though Miller is already slated to direcg, that got me thinking. While Miller himself isn't such a bad choice to direct, I've thought up a list of a bunch of other dudes that I, personally, would like to see breathe some life back into a series that just hasn't felt alive since the second movie. And so, here are my...
For this list, I've made the selection based on several criteria (e.g. previous films, strengths as directors, respect for source material, and directing ability), but the underlying basis was whether or not a director's style would blend well with the Terminator property. And I say this because, like I said in my last Percy Jackson movie rant, a director's style and strengths should align with the movie's concept. For example, having Michael Bay direct a Harry Potter movie would be a stupid idea because Michael Bay's strengths certainly don't play to what a Harry Potter movie should be.
