Variety Reports:
Producers at the Halcyon Co. say they aim to deliver a PG-13 movie to Warner Bros. for release on May 22, 2009… “Our merchandising program will be the largest to date for ‘The Terminator,’ ” said Halcyon co-founder and co-CEO Derek Anderson… Halcyon has already launched Halcyon Games to create a “Terminator” game for release at the same time as the movie…
Some parallels have been drawn between what was done with the “Die Hard” series and how it’s PG-13 flick was so profitable.
I really hate this new trend of these “event” movies. The studios can’t put anything to risk. They cover there asses with merch and other lame tie-ins, and now it seems there bringing games into the mix even more. The “Terminator” game, I’m pretty sure is going to be a “Teen” and not a “Mature” game.
What’s next… to keep the movie from being too dark all fighting will be in broad daylight… The terminators will only stun humans not kill them… The apocalyptic environments will have rounded corners and foam padding… Miley Cyrus will be introduced as John Conners daughter… Skynet just want’s a hug and a cookie
We could rally around the director if he said “NO way it’s gotta be R”. But it’s being directed by McG, nuff said i guess.

Terminator fans what do you think?
See this just upsets me. The Terminator Franchise is a rated “R” franchise! When McG was allowed to sit in the directors chair the production was doomed to fail. It just gets worse and worse. Better with the casting of Chirstian Bale, then worse again. Him being in the movie is the only reason I will see it. Chances are any 13 year olds that are going to go see this movie will watch or have watched the first three rated “R” versions. Then they’re even going to think it sucks compared to the others. You know what? When people make movies especially movies that have followings, studios and directors should strive to make the sequels of that movie better than the last. Not dumb it down. Lets progress in film making and story people! I can already say with confidence that this movie wont even be in the same league as the first three. McG should at least be TRYING to out do James Cameron, not lay down and die.
