If true, Syfy Channel will probably be the first to re-run the original just to cash in on the advance publicity. I can hear it now.

Ianmitchell I totally agree on no reboots. Just look at the Total Recall reboot. I could barely sit through it. I am a huge fan of the original. The only things I liked in the reboot were the little nods to the original. Can't anyone come up with anything original these days? All the big distributer's want these days are teen novels & reboots. SMH

I think this film simply works for it's uniqueness and fascinating talent pool. I can't imagine a reboot or a sequel adding anything to this strangely wonderful film.
For me, I love this film for the stalkers going up against Arnie. You had that big fat dutch guy Erland Van Lidth de Jeude who looked like Spdermans Kingpin in real life. How are you going to find anyone that interesting again? Gus Rethwisch and Professor Tanaka played their roles perfectly well and even Jim Brown as Fireball. When I look at all the actors that are chosen nowadays I can just tell they'd mess this film up by hiring stupid WWE wrestlers to play the Stalkers. I loathe watching any film with morons like Batista, Kevin Nash and Bill Goldberg in it. They'd probably make the hero someone like Tom Hardy or whatever other buff hero looking person is the in thing nowadays.
This film should just be left alone and appreciated as the out-of-date gem that it is.

I'm a fan fiction writer. Part 2 should be left just as fan fiction. I wrote a couple of Demolition Man sequels.

Arnie's whoring himself left, right and centre after his departure from his "Governator" role. Being in the fifth Terminator instalment pretty much confirms he'll take any role.
So what? He's gonna try to make as many films as he can with the few years he has left.

Don't be a hater, dear.

Yeah, but you know what. I'd sooner watch Arnie's whoring around and doing sequels to movies he did years ago, than beep like divergence, twilight, maze runner and all that other teenage garbage that comes out. Get that Eraser sequel going I say.
I got the crest on Birdman's helmut!

i think it's too long since the original film for a sequel. might as well put it on the reboot bandwagon. hell everything else is being rebooted

I don't know how they could make a second one unless they used the same concept as the Hunger Games storyline.
A total re-boot would be better

Bs..
I hope so
