Christian Bale has become one of those actors who you expect to get the academy award for best actor. He made Batman rule again after George Cloony made it hard for us to even utter the name “Batman.” He made me want to see The Prestige, and he owned his role in 3:10 to Yuma, and I think that he will do excellent in Terminator 4. However, I fear the film will end up failing. First, they don’t get Arnold, then they say the film will be PG-13. As much as I liked Terminator and Terminator 3 (I haven’t seen all of Terminator 2), I think this movie will try to fly, but end up flying and crashing [explosion]. We’ll just see.

I’d rather get 3 batman sequels than 3 Terminators.

I reallly hope that they don’t f#ck up this franchise but I’m cautiously optimistic. Having Bale sign on is a good sign.

If the guy didnt call himself “McG” hed probably get less than half the flack he gets right now.

After seeing we are Marshall, the guy is at least a decent to good director, IMO.

If the script is that good and they keep siging good actors, Ill be very interested in this franchise.

I just wonder if this has any impact on a third Batman film.

I am in complete agreement on with the consensus on McG and it pains me that he’s the one taking over this franchise.

Kristina – I agree with you, Bale is too good for this as is Josh Brolin.

Oh boy, I hope Christian did the right thing here.
He may be stuck with doing crappy sequels he can’t get out of.
Come on McG (it still hurts writing that name), show us that you can direct real movies. You know, with a story and all.

As long as Bale has enough free time to shoot the third Batman, I’m fine with this for now.

This doesn’t say much for me. When Episode 1 was casted lots of big names ran to it for the namesake. Had they read the script, they might have thought twice.

The same can be said of Matrix 2 and 3.

I also still don’t get if he will be the Terminator or a resistance fighter or Connor or what???
