TERMINATOR 4: YOU SMELL WHAT THE TERMINATOR IS COOKING?

Aside from "Predator III", Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will apparrently take over from Arnold for "Terminator 4" as the original Terminator owns Calafornia's ass.

Whilst I'm glad a fourth film is coming out, I'm not sure if people will accept the franchise without the original actor, still it's The Rock (who, along with Triple H, is getting a lot of movies)so it MIGHT be good.

I was just giving forewarning that you're about to be buried by Leo656 since you mentioned a movie with the Rock has potential to be GOOD...

WHY do they keep giving that man movies.. He couldn't act his way out of a paper bag!! I have seen better acting in a Pr0n flick! I mean honestly..

*is just grumpy*

first the franchise just wont die.. not that I have anything against the terminator movies.. but yeesh.. we get it...

I just.. i dunno. I have yet to see a GOOD movie with the rock in it.

You know me all too well.

I WILL say, though, that I am more of a Terminator fan than I am a Rock hater, so if they make another Terminator flick I'll probably see it.

But the fact remains that Dwayne Johnson is a self-centered, woman-beating, talentless sack of crap and that he's so protected by "the industry" (both wrestling AND Hollywood) that it's not even funny. Nothing he has is deserved. Nothing. He got a job with the WWF before he had ever wrestled one match because Vince McMahon owed his daddy a favor, and the fans puked him back up on Vince because they recognized him for the talentless, 3-move, 3-joke hack he was, and they only started cheering for him after about a year and a half of him being shoved down their throats, when they realized "well, this guy aint going away, so we better just baa like sheep". It's the same exact way Triple H got famous and kept his spot despite the fact nobody watching gives a rat's ass about him. And just like Rock, he knows how to pick his spots and get "injured" or go do a movie whenever the climate is right. Meaning, whenever the fans get sick of Rock (OR HHH), he just takes 6 months off and comes back a conquering hero, even if the fans hated him before he left. And the movies either makes are just a diversion from the fact they were lousy wrestlers with semi-decent charisma, so they channel the few talents they share (decent comedic delivery, experience with "fight scenes" and some ability to ad-lib) down another avenue.

Funny thing about Triple H's new movie (not Blade, the other one) is that it was written for him by the WWE writers after no actual studios were interested in him except for the people making Blade. So much for Trips' plans for being the next Rock, huh?

Either way, they both suck and it's gonna hurt me to pay money to see Rock in a movie, even if it is Terminator. At least I don't have to go see that Spy Hunter flick Rock is doing. Heh... Spy Hunter... because the video game is SO deep it constitutes a movie...

I ain't going to argue with the average Rock hater (I've done that on most Wrestling message boards), but I have to say the Rock appearing in Spy Hunter sounds....

I don't hate him. I just dont think he can act.. and I would have more respect for him(not much but more). if he had tried to start a movie career using his OWN name instead of "The Rock"

I'd like to see a new person play Terminator. I mean the main character is a robot so there's plenty of ways to work around the reason he'd have a new face!

It is possible to do a Terminator movie without Arnold.

However, as seen with T3, you got to have Cameron involved...

I disagree. And so did Cameron, since he said he didn't think he could have necessarily done a better T3. He said he would have ended it differently, but he added that his version probably wouldn't have been "better"... just different.

I thought T3 was a million times better than it had any right to be.

Definatly agreeing with Leo656, Terminator 3 is very underated, when it comes off as prehaps a good example of taking someone's creation and improving on it, showing that yes, these things DO happen.

Cameron approved it, that says it right there.

Isn't Arnold's model obsolete now anyway? Terminator could turn into like.. The Crow. Meaning there's a new lead character every time. It could be both bad (City of Angels) and good (Salvation.)

I think the Rock is a great wrestler, a decent actor, and that he deserves every bit of the success that he's gotten. I sometimes wish that he wasn't making movies though, because I miss seeing him in the ring and on the mic.

I also think that The Scorpion King kicked ass.

Based on the end of T3, they should just schedule a time when the Gov. has a day off and bring him in for 1 day of shooting on T4. That's all they'll need to tie up that loose end. "We'll meet again". Regardless, with or without the Rock, "Just Bring it!"

.....the world is coming to a end REAL quick

the best acting job the rock ever done was "Haku Masenta" or something like that and that was IT

and on the subject of HHH....well he should stick to those stacker 2 commercials

Hogan, Ventura and Nash are the only good wrestler/actors

but changing the Terminator into the current Fad action hero is...Bad!

I knew this was going to happen but i thought they would use the other new fad action hero vin diesel but jeez the rock?

im still waiting for the Ah-nold,Stallone,Van Damm,Seagal Buddy movie
