For example, look at the Clone Wars. They were much cooler as just a mysterious, throwaway line in the original Star Wars.

I'm pretty sure that's an opinion. |

It is. (Here's the giveaway: It's on a message board.)
But it's one I think most would tend to agree with- provided it was presented more objectively. In other words, leaving things to the imagination is often more effective than simply being told what to think. |

Many of you may not think Arnold is needed for T-4, but do you honestly think the studio heads are going to try and sell a Terminator film without him. Afterall they already lost Linda Hamilton.

^^There's something seriously wrong with that T-800, I hope that Skynet kept the reciept.
The Arnold we knew is most definitely no more. 
I never said that the studio's would allow an Arnold-less Terminator film, of course they wouldn't, I just said that as far as this story line goes, he might not be necessary.

Wasn't he more or less in around the same flabby shape before T3 started filming and he bulked up using a strict diet and exercise routine? I thought I remember him talking about how he bulked up past his T2 jacket. He may look flabby now but there's nothing he can't shed if the part requires it.

Yes, he did get himself back to his T2 weight and relative shape for T3, however there comes a point where time takes it's toll on the body and he may not be able to pull that off again, at least not convincingly enough to play the Terminator again. Also, it's not just his body, his face is also starting to sag and change.
There's always CGI enhancment I guess, if they can make me believe i'm watching a 25' Gorilla, i'm sure they could help Arnold out a little.
I guess it's time to face it, the unstoppable Arnold Shcwarzenegger that we all grew up with in kick-ass action films is getting old.

One too many $1000 dinner plates and cigars may have caught up with Arnie:

I thought that was a pre-T3 picture.
The man I loved - the man who vanished - he never came back at all. But maybe he's still out there, somewhere. Maybe some day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again.

That was a pre T-3 picture, I believe less than a year after the surgery for that heart valve (I think). Going off memory here, which is probably better than yours. j/k

We need to accept some of the facts of life. And know when to abstain.
No Terminator movie without Arnie.
No Back to the Future movie without Michael J. Fox.
No Star Wars movie without George Lucas.
No Indiana Jones movie without Harrison Ford.
No James Bond movie without Sean Connery.
Period.
Right?

I agree on all but the last one. A few of the post-Connery Bond films are good.
Also, I would add that a Back to the Future sequel should not be made without Christopher Lloyd as well.
