Good, just let this franchise die already…only the first 2 movies are good.

Jack Reacher sucked. It also had a 62% RT score and 50% on the much more discerning Metacritic score. Hardly well-loved across the board.

The difference with Jack Reacher is that the reviews for Reacher were good.

I wrote an intelligent response and your system calls it \’spammy". So here\’s a shorter one. "F**k you"

I too was asking for Jack Reacher 2, although calling the reviews for it good is a bit of a… reach 😀

"not including post production costs" What? Sounds like someone doesn\’t know what they are talking about.

I hope they do make another Terminator, but am glad that this one failed as hard as it did; they will have to ask themselves what is wrong with their recipe, and correct for it. If you are one of those people, and you are reading this – HERE IS YOUR ANSWER: Make it more like Sicario – lower budget, visionary direction, and R-Rated. Stop trying to make it into a McDonalds friendly, Avengers-Universe, PG13 mess. The first film gave you a franchise. And that franchise-ness has been slowly eating itself ever since.

The movie has made almost half a billion dollars (and still going). They\’ll make a sequel; maybe not for a while, but they\’ll make one. They\’re just waiting for home release sales before making any decisions.

Only 25% of every dollar overseas comes back to the production company and roughly 50% of every dollar returns comes from US screens. Figure you take a film budget and triple it and that\’s roughly the break-even (supposedly). This isn\’t counting the fact that China has been known to hold back revenue and short change you. All of a sudden $440 million on a budget of $155 (before VERY expensive VFX) looks like a BIG loser for all equity investors involved.

I think it boils down to this – forget the numbers that are "shared with the public" – ie "T5 made more than all the T\’s (except T2)". Wanna bet only the Cameron ones made money if you factor in inflation? And "waiting for home release sales" before sequel decisions are made? They have 3 years to make said decision, pre-produce (and, apparently, "post produce"), and everything inbetween, all before Jan. 1, 2019. After that, you have a man who has said the Terminator Universe ended with T2. IMHO, the only thing Paramount could do that would make economic sense is to fund a reboot/continuation of T:TSCC (using the original actors/producers/writers/etc as much as possible) on HBO or Netflix (or whichever channel that they already own), and see how amazing it could be if they didn\’t have to use a minuscule budget, nor worry about "copyright infringements".

when is James Cameron going to finally make the movie of Battle Angel Alita? I\’ve been waiting for that for like 10 years now ever since he for some reason got the right to it. I remember another people wanted to make it but Cameron that movie was his and that he was the one to make it but now he\’s just working on what? Pocahontas in space?

"…that there was might be some followups…"

"…costed less…."

Seriously?
