I got an e-mail today from the governor's office of New Mexico bragging about the fact that the upcoming Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins will be filmed in New Mexico from May through August this year before a theatrical release in May 2009. I wonder if Texas was ever in the running for this project? A few years ago, I wrote an article about how Texas was trying to get more competitive with New Mexico and other states to lure movie makers. But there was a good bit of skepticism about whether Texas had the financial will to outbid other states, and I wonder if the Lone Star State was ever in the running for this film. I also wonder, speaking as a fairly hardcore Terminator fan, whether this movie will suck. The realist in me says yes, since Ahhnold will have, at best, a cameo appearance. But then again, Christian Bale is starring as John Conner, and I don't think he's made a bad action movie yet. |
