Interesting! Very Interesting

Again this is just pure speculation, but it is kind of fun to think about. It would be very cool, it they were selected as the winning bidder for the Terminator Franchise.

Lions Gate's $15-million-plus offer for 'Terminator' is now the bid to beat

Terminator Franchise Box Office takes-
10/26/1984 The Terminator $4,020,663 $38,019,031 $78,019,031 $6,400,000
7/3/1991 Terminator 2: Judgment Day $31,765,506 $204,859,496 $516,816,151 $100,000,000
7/1/2003 Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines $44,041,440 $150,358,296 $433,058,296 $170,000,000
5/21/2009 Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins $42,558,390 $125,322,469 $371,628,539 $200,000,000
Totals $518,559,292 $1,399,522,017 $476,400,000
Averages $129,639,823 $349,880,504 $119,100,000

So with DVD sales, and VOD the franchise has probably made over $2 Billion


Many people have said the only way the Terminator Franchise would have any success again, is if James Cameron was brought back to make the next one.

It is interesting that Eric and James apparently know each other, because Eric mentioned as a special thanks in this:

Very interesting to me!
