Kyle Reese, The T-800, Sarah and John Connor. It looks like global recession may succeed where they all failed and knock out Skynet for good –if a buyer for the Terminator rights can’t be found soon.

“Terminator Salvation: It’s alright I Suppose” Didn’t exactly fire up the box office the way struggling License owners Derek Anderson and Victor Kubicek hoped, and now bankruptcy is a-knocking they’re attempting to flog off the dying horse, despite the franchise seemingly carrying a curse; bankrupting every studio that touches it.

It’s probable whoever picks up the rights will squeeze out another McG/Christian Bale shoutathon, although the future of Warner’s Sarah Connor Chronicles and related spin-offs has been cast into serious shadow.

We here at STS were disappointed in the post-T2 drop-off in killer robot quality, and we’d happily organise a whip round to raise the estimated $60Million value, but unfortunately we’re currently $59,999,997.50 short. Dig deep readers-the future is in your hands.

Unhappy with the direction Terminator has taken? Assuming it’s under new management which direction would you like to see the franchise take?
