Cameron On ALIEN and T3

James Cameron gives his thoughts on TERMINATOR 3 and the possibility of ALIEN 5.
James Cameron recently talked with BBC1 and revealed he’s very happy with how Terminator 3 ended up: “In one word : Great. There was a small part of me that hoped it wasn’t good – but another part of me hope’d it succeeded. And it did. And I’m so glad it did. Jonathon’s made a great movie. Arnold’s in great form. I really like what he’s done with it”. If he had done it, would he have handled it differently: “Yes. That’s only natural. I mightn’t have structrued it the same, nor may I have ended it the same way – but coming in where he has, such a hard thing to do, and I give Jonathan points for it”.
This isn’t a man whose going to whitewash his opinion either, take for example his reaction to “Alien 3” – “Hated it. Simple as that. I hated what they did…. I couldn’t stand Alien 3 – how they could just go in there and kill off all these great characters we introduced in aliens, and the correlation between mother and daughter. It stunk, but hopefully I’ll get a chance to rectify all that”. You mean the talk about him being tied to “Alien 5” is true? “To an extent. yes. We’re looking at doing another one. Something similiar to what we did with Aliens. A bunch of great characters, and of course Sigourney. I’ve even discussed the possibility of putting him [Arnold Schwarzenegger] into the Alien movie”.
