Talking to IESB, the director said,
" Obviously, Michael Bay had tremendous success following Transformers, in a very short window. Sometimes people like to take time off, but I'm excited about the next installation of the story in the Terminator idea. So, for me, it's terribly exciting to get back out there and show a different face of that idea, and perhaps get out of the apocalyptic world and into a contemporary world. I think the audience is going to be very excited about our way in."
That sounds like the next movie will abandon the constant post apocalyptic setting of Salvation and perhaps move into the more familiar time travel territory of the first two movies.
Meanwhile, McG's also busily listening to critics of the last movie and still blaming some of the backlash on his name!
"I listen to everything. It's interesting because a lot of people don't like me, but a lot of people just don't like my name. I can't take that too seriously because that's been my name my whole life. It's not something that I prescribed myself. You take your lumps, if they don't like it, and you enjoy it a lot more when they do. We've all been on every side of that, and what can you do, but figure out what you did right and what you did wrong, look at it a little more closely, study the people that you look up to, and continue to evolve as a storyteller."
"Terminator Salvation" was pretty good I thought. Could have been better but hopefully that's where McG is heading with the next one. Just as long as we don't have any Terminators humping anything we should be fine!
