Have you all watched "Terminator: Dark Fate"? At the end of the film, the old version of T-800 tragically said to Sarah Connor and Dany: "I won't be back." The
scene made fans who grew up watching the Terminator series hide their faces. Weeping, it has spanned a full 35 years from "Terminator 1" to the present. The children who watched T-800 on TV at the time may have grown up to work, even married and had children.
But, will T-800 really come back? not necessarily.
Recently, the main creative team of "Terminator: Dark Fate" came to China to promote. During an interview with a large film and television media, 72-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger was asked a question that most netizens care about:
"This is the fifth time you have played the role of T-800. Will there be a sixth time?"
Arnold replied:
"This is all decided by the fans, not by me. These movies They were all taken for the fans, not for me."
He said he was very happy to see the Terminator series is so popular all over the world, and fans kept wanting to watch the sequel.
"So as long as the fans like this one, we will continue to shoot, no problem." How does
judge whether the fans like it? To put it plainly, the box office is the most important reference.
"Terminator: Dark Destiny" has been in theaters in mainland China for 8 days, only 271 million yuan, and the global cumulative total box office, currently only knows the results as of last weekend (November 3), which is 130 million US dollars.
To be honest, this is not good news, because the budget cost of "Terminator: Dark Destiny" is as high as 185 million US dollars. According to the popular calculation of three times the return cost, at least it will eventually gain more than 550 million US dollars to achieve profitability. In other words, it is possible to make a sequel.
and Maoyan predicts that the total box office in mainland China is 346 million yuan, which is not optimistic. In addition, it is indeed a relatively slow box office growth trend, indicating that this "Terminator: Dark Destiny" is really difficult to achieve word-of-mouth box office Double harvest, the possibility of hitting the street is great.
After all, feelings are feelings, and capital is capital. There is no businessman in the world who will lose money. Moreover, there is a scene in "Terminator: Dark Destiny". T-800 picked up the sunglasses that made his image cool and tough and popular all over the world. But let it go again. Does it mean that in fact, the producer of Paramount also had a foreboding that this new work might really be the last one?
No matter what, although some netizens complained about the old-fashioned plot, lack of innovation, and consumerism, the 72-year-old is still fighting on the front line, and has not been able to support his life and enjoy family happiness. I really admire it.
