Various Schwarzenegger News

ABking has been sending me various scoops regarding Arnold Schwarzenegger, so I thought I would pass one along to you, the readers.

ABking writes, "Arnie is going to be one of the main voice characters in PIXAR/DISNEY'S "RATATOUILLE" along with Johnny Depp summer 2007 playing a Terminator type character called EXTERMINATOR. Then in summer 2008 Arnie will cameo in TERMINATOR 4 and do voice work in DREAMWORKS Animation SKG'S "CROOD AWAKENING" (Arnie playing the role of Crood)."

"Seems like Arnie is lining himself up with work even if he is
re-elected as governor. I still hear the rumor James Cameron wrote roles for him in both AVATAR (the Quaritch military role) and BATTLE ANGEL ALITA (Alita's creator Ido). Can you confirm this in anyway or form? Bet you $100 bucks if Jim got asked this question a no comment would follow!"

And no AB, I can't confirm anything regarding Battle Angel, though it is interesting to speculate.

It's good to know Arnold will have work if California runs him out of the state on a rail.

I have seen the trailer for RATATOUILLE. My kids loved it and I thought it looked fun.

I was a rat once... once!

Wait... why would I be proud of that?

...anyway nice to see the Ahnold will do a T4 cameo.

I think "Battle Angel Alita" would be a remarkable movie to be made, especially from James Cameron. I'm sure he, if anyone, can capture the full emotion of the story.

Is James Cameron ever going to do another movie?

lracors • Jun 30, 2006, 09:59am •

At this rate, he'll be like Speilberg with a dozen films in production but, unlike Speilberg he will never finish one.

Glad to hear Arnold is doing the cameo in T4. I presume it'll involve the assembly line and maybe a few scenes as a ruthless Terminator and of getting reprogrammed.

Ya know, it kind of saddens me that the sequels were so slow to come out. I am thinking: wouldn't it have been neat if a radically "different" T2 came out two or three years after the first?

One where it expanded on the future war that we briefly saw in the first. Stop motion or puppet Terminators, gritty storytelling, human desperation and wo, hunter-killer droids, laser blasts, and rich explosions. The music would have remained a little cheesy but whatever.

The reason I say this is because storytelling nowadays is done so differently and there's a significant difference in special effects. I liked the look of model space ships over that of CG ones. And the grit I saw in T1 was awe inspiring.

Ah well. Welcome back James Cameron, I am looking forward to your next masterpiece....

Whatever happened to Arnie & Sgt. Rock? Waaaaaaaay baaack I remember reading about a possible film with The Gov. in the lead. I'd rather prefer him as some badass SS villain if he's gonna do a WW2 flick.

to the kid who said "...anyway nice to see the Ahnold will do a T4 cameo." my response to that is that not only should you not be happy that Arnold might be in it, but you should not be happy that they are even making part 4.

Part 3 was a vomit enema, god knows how much worse 4 is gonna be.
