DOES CAMERON WANT "T3" TO FAIL? Arnold and Cameron discuss T3! Reported By: René de Jong Friday, December 27, 2002 MTV.com caught up with Arnold Schwarzenegger and James Cameron. Cameron, who is no longer attached to the Terminator franchise may be a little bitter but does he want "T3" to fail? MTV.com reports: "I made that decision [not to be involved] a long time ago," Cameron said recently. "Really it was when I was in post-production on 'Titanic,' I said, 'Guys, I don't want to do this.' But Arnold kept kind of hanging on, wanting me, trying to reel me in. Because we are friends and he really wanted that continuity. And finally I just said, 'You know, dude, just go make this. You were born to go play this guy, and I just don't feel it. I've told the story that I wanted to tell. If they can come up with a good script and they pay you a lot of money, don't think twice.' So we're still on great terms. "It's funny, you know, there's a part of me that kind of hopes it sucks," Cameron admitted. "But Arnold is one of my best friends, and so for him I really want it to be good. And also, you just want it to be good because you want it to continue the line." Schwarzenegger had nothing but praise for the "total control" and leadership Mostow displayed on the "T3" set. He's similarly enthusiastic about "In the Bedroom" actor Stahl, who stepped in for Furlong as fledgling human resistance leader John Connor, and Loken, who plays yet another model of Terminator sent back in time to kill Connor. "I don't work that much with her, other than just trying to destroy her and her trying to destroy me," Schwarzenegger said of the actress. "So the only time we ever get together on the set is when we throw each other through the air and through bathrooms and walls. Or we throw each other off the buildings, or try to crush each other with helicopters and with airplanes. Or she's trying to destroy me with some huge machinery or with a huge crane or something like that. ... We never speak one word to each other. She just wants to eliminate me, I'm in her way, I try to eliminate her, so there's this adversarial relationship from the beginning to the end." Click HERE for the complete article! ---------- |
