Arnold no fan of T4

Though the TERMINATOR SALVATION footage McG brought to Comic-Con seemed to really impress the fans in Hall H, apparently Arnold Schwarzenegger isn’t one of those fans. The LA Times is reporting that Schwarzenegger was shown some footage from SALVATION and describes his response as “puzzled,” “cautionary” and “underwhelmed.” If you listen closely you can still hear the sound of McG banging his head on a wall somewhere in Albuquerque. Arnold says he was a little confused by what he saw saying, “I wasn’t sure who the Terminator was. I don’t know if there is one or if he’s the star or the hero.” Hey Arnold, the I’m-a-little-confused-by-T4 line ends waaaay back there. If you think that the 61-year-old Arnold is just getting a little curmudgeonly, he’s more that happy to heap praise on other films he’s seen. WANTED? Huge fan. “That was an excellent movie! There was this train coming down from a bridge, falling, and they’re fighting inside the train car. Jesus, that is unbelievable that you can do that.” STEP BROTHERS? Loved it. “You feel like you get a six-pack from all the laughs!” (Note to Universal and Sony marketing teams: get those quotes for the DVD covers.) So should we, the collective fanboys, be worried that the T-800 himself isn’t wowed by McG’s TERMINATOR vision? Nah. It’s not even close to being finished. I’m sure he’ll be singing a different tune next year…
