this was on Dark Horizons today.
"Terminator 3 & Alien 5: James Cameron recently talked with BBC1 and revealed he's very happy with how Terminator 3 ended up: "In one word : Great. There was a small part of me that hoped it wasn't good - but another part of me hope'd it succeeded. And it did. And I'm so glad it did. Jonathon's made a great movie. Arnold's in great form. I really like what he's done with it". If he had done it, would he have handled it differently: "Yes. That's only natural. I mightn't have structrued it the same, nor may I have ended it the same way - but coming in where he has, such a hard thing to do, and I give Jonathan points for it".
This isn't a man whose going to whitewash his opinion either, take for example his reaction to "Alien 3" - "Hated it. Simple as that. I hated what they did.... I couldn't stand Alien 3 - how they could just go in there and kill off all these great characters we introduced in aliens, and the correlation between mother and daughter. It stunk, but hopefully I'll get a chance to rectify all that". You mean the talk about him being tied to "Alien 5" is true? "To an extent. yes. We're looking at doing another one. Something similiar to what we did with Aliens. A bunch of great characters, and of course Sigourney. I've even discussed the possibility of putting him [Arnold Schwarzenegger] into the Alien movie". Thanks to 'Ryan'."
This would be cool. I loved Aliens, and even though I did like Alien 3, Alien 4 was horrible (and I liked Delicatessen!) |

If anyone can make a worthy sequel, it's James Cameron. Re-visiting a franchise he has already had a hand in would be an interesting choice of work for him. I would love to see his involvement, whether it's writing or directing, if another Alien movie is made.

Arnold in an Aliens sequel, with Cameron at the helm again? That sounds like a pretty damn good recipe to me.  |

I don't think he said anything about directing the thing.

well, if T2 is any indication, then it could very well be a recipe for disaster... |

More gratuitous "blow-'em-up". [Sigh] Will it never end?

Yeah, I'd HATE to get another great action flick like T2 - what a nightmare!

Movie watching is a very subjective experience, and I respect everybody's opinion. That said, I think companies that make movies such as Terminator, Alien, ...are really interested in making money, in that sense, T2, by any stretch of imagination, is hardly a disaster. One may not like the film, which is perfectly fine, as there have been posts in this forum that think movies such as Lawrence of Arabia, 7 Samurai, .. are bored beyond beleive, Citizen Kane is a total overrated piece of passe'...

I think the idea of a new Alien movie with Cameron somehow involved is a neat idea, regardless of who's in it.
I like the fact that he enjoyed T3.

I also like that he liked T3. Maybe now that he has enjoyed the ending, has seen there is a future for terminator, he will possibly pick up the 4th.
I'm all for an Alien 5 with Cameron involved. I will see that at theaters, but an Alien vs Predator, and cameron said he wouldn't do this, I will not go to see it.
