Schwarzenegger to Resuscitate Tired Tagline, Movie FranchisePosted on Apr 27, 2011
We’ve seen several cases by now of entertainers crossing over into the political realm, but few treat that career-swapping switch like a revolving door. First of all, it’s unwise, and second, it’s not easily done—unless, apparently, you’re Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is reportedly gearing up for a fifth “Terminator” film now that he’s out of the California governor’s manse. —KA

I’d rather see Arnold on a Hollywood set than at a Bilderberger conference any day of the week. Sad that at 63, he still has to chase the almighty dollar. His political career has cemented his classification as sub-human. Good riddance.

In this movie sequel, the Terminator will be tooling around LA in a Hoveround.

Queenie, I could have, and probably should have, written ‘You and Liddy have something in common’. But then, come to think of it, you might have wondered if I meant the Watergate burglars were gay, giggling over their Dole bananas. Re: Queen Elizabeth. So far as I know, all she likes to do with bananas is dunk them in her cuppa Guinness at tea time.

Elizabeth - as in Queen? Does she giggle at Dole bananas? I did not know this.
No, my cat is named Queenie for a role Kay Walsh played,(look it up) and, yes I am an Anglophile. My family is from there. Long live the Queenie.

Well, at least he isn’t going to do commercials for Viagra.
I still can’t look at a Dole banana without getting the giggles.

The ‘I’ll be back’ part of this rumor is correct, but the proposed movie does not have a Terminator role. The flick’s tentative title is ‘Emperor of the World’, and Arnold’s going to do it in blackface, playing an African-American who has undergone a lobotomy, yet wins a national election to occupy the White House as ‘Top Dog’, as his adoring staff calls him.
Report this(The blackface and lobotomy are to give equal nods, so as to not show favoritism, to our current and just-past Emperor/Presidents)
An interesting premise, could do gangbusters at the BO, now it all hangs on how well Maria can handle directing and producing the sometimes temperamental star.
