Newsbites: The Terminator edition!

Christianity Today April 16, 2009

1. Terminator Salvation director McG says the ending of his film will be “challenging” and “elliptical” – and it will leave the door wide open for a couple more sequels: “It’s not a happy little bow of an ending at all. The ending is tough and requires reflection, and in some degrees it bifurcates the audience. You walk back to the car and one person thinks it means this, and the other person thinks it means that.” – MTV Movies Blog

2. The ratings for The Sarah Connor Chronicles went up a bit a few weeks before the season finale, but did not pick up on the night of the finale itself. Some insiders say the show is as good as cancelled, now, but there will be no official indication of that until Fox announces its fall schedule May 18. – Ace Showbiz, Hollywood Reporter, TV by the Numbers, Entertainment Weekly, io9

3. Thomas Dekker, who plays – or played? – John Connor on The Sarah Connor Chronicles, is in final negotiations to play a swim-team jock in the remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street. – ShockTillYouDrop.com

4. A settlement has been reached in the lawsuit between Terminator Salvation producer Moritz Borman and his fellow producers Derek Anderson and Victor Kubicek. – Variety
