Terminator 4 Has Terminated Everything Good About the Terminator Series
Okay. In Terminator 3, the movie franchise dropped both director James Cameron and the character of Sarah Connor, and we all know how that turned out. Now here’s a quick look at what’s not happening for Terminator 4: Salvation: The Future Begins (yes, that is the real title).
? No Arnold Schwarzenegger (which we’ve known forever).
And, just announced:
? No R rating.
Instead it will be PG-13?a Terminator flick for the whole family. I think the Terminator learns a valuable lesson about friendship in this one, and how we should all treat each other equally, even if that person is a human who’s leading a revolution against the machines.
