Schwarzenegger Reprising TERMINATOR Role - Good or Bad?

You knew Arnold Schwarzenegger was going to reprise his role as The Terminator in the fifth film, right?

Ever since Arnold attached himself to Terminator 5, it was apparent that he would be back to reprise his role as the futuristic killing machine. So why is this all of a sudden news? Because Arnold said so. In a recent interview he said he would be playing the Terminator and that the plan is to start shooting the film next year. Here's what he said in a recent interview with TheArnoldFans.com...

 I'm very happy that the studios want me to be in 'Terminator 5' and to star as the Terminator...we start shooting in January and I'm also going to do 'King Conan'. To play that role and also to do another 'Twins' movie. I feel very proud of that. I feel very happy and I'm looking forward to doing those films."

There's no new information here unless for some reason you didn't think Arnold was really going to star on the movie. But in all honesty how good would a Terminator film be without Arnold Schwarzenegger? Oh yeah, Terminator Salvation, not good at all. 

I know he's in his 60s, but I think he'll still be able to pull it off. I'm curious to see how they handle the age aspect of it. Maybe they will digitally make him younger like Brad Pitt in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I'm happy that Arnold will be back to reprise his iconic role, hopefully the filmmakers, whoever they might be, will develop a solid story for it. 

What are your thoughts on Schwarzenegger coming back as the Terminator?
