Salvation Gets Terminated

And the winner of the distribution rights to the Terminator fanchise is. . .Warner Bros. (Warner Brothers, who for the sake of this news artical looks like a toad in a top hat, takes a bow.) So Warner Brothers, you just got those funky distribution rights, what are you going to do next.

"Next" says the WB Toad, "Well I'm going to greenlight a movie! The upcoming television show tested extremely well and it looks like we got some life in this old robotic dog."

That's great WB, can I call you WB?

"Yes you can but you'll have to pay a fee everytime you use it."

Never mind, I'll stick with Tophat Toad. Anywho, did you decide on a name for the movie.

"Yes we did, it will be called TERMINATOR: Salvation: The Future Begins."

So you're doing the smart thing and moving towards what John Conners is supposed to be in the future?

"Yessiree bob. Not only that but we have Halcyon Entertainment producing it, we've put it on the fast track for production in early 2008, we want to try to reinvent the storyline by taking it to the future, and the guys who did the screenplay for 'Terminator: Rise of the Machines, John Brancato and Michael Ferris, are writing it, and we may or may not have Arnold on board for a cameo."

Wow, Tophat, can it get any more exciting?

"Why yes, not only are we planning this movie but it will be the first of a trilogy. And McG might be directing it if we can make a deal."

Thank you very much Tophat. If you want to learn more about the story click here and remember, talking to toads in tophats might be a sign of needing help.
