After this past summer saw Terminator: Genisys meet with a less-than-enthusiastic reception at the domestic box office, the future of the franchise has been in question. As the Arnold Schwarzenegger-starring reboot of the timeline performed well overseas, especially in China, it looked like more installments could be on the way, though now the opposite appears to be the case.
In an article in The Hollywood Reporter about film financiers and producers, talk turns to David Ellison, whose Skydance Productions was behind Genisys. While discussing the ambitious plans for the Terminator franchise, the article says:
did well overseas, especially in China, where it grossed $112 million. But the $150 million-plus movie still will lose money, and sources say the notion of a Terminator universe is on hold indefinitely.
Despite only taking in $89 million at the U.S. box office, Terminator: Genisys has managed to earn north of $440 million globally, which is good enough to place it in the top ten highest grossing movies of the year, at least up to this point. With those numbers, many thought that it meant we would be seeing more chapters in the killer-robots-from-the-future saga, but it looks like we won’t, or at least not any time soon.
Even though it appears to have made good money, the report indicates that number is not indicative of the profit margin. Terminator: Genisys already had a reported budget of somewhere in the vicinity of $155 million, which isn’t chump change, and when you factor in a massive global marketing campaign, at least according to this report, Skydance and Paramount Pictures didn’t wind up making any money.
Before Genisys even hit theaters, there was talk that it was going to be the first in a new trilogy, and the film certainly sets up the possibility of more to follow. The plan was originally for two films to shoot back-to-back for release in 2017 and 2018, respectively. A big part of this timeline was because the rights to the Terminator franchise revert back to originator James Cameron in 2019, and Paramount was going to try to sneak these in under the wire. But it looks like that dream is dead.
We may very well see more Terminator sequels in the future, but at least not in the next few years. Genisys’ haul shows that there is still a global market for the franchise, but apparently not enough to sustain this level of big budget production.
This is similar to the situation Pacific Rim is in. Though the Guillermo del Toro-directed monsters versus robots epic tanked in the U.S., it did well enough worldwide that a sequel has been in the works. However, Pacific Rim 2 has been pushed back and delayed numerous times, and it has now been completely pulled from Legendary’s release schedule. A statement says it will be rescheduled at some point, but that remains to be seen.
Pacific Rim had an even bigger budget and made less money than Genisys. And even though the international market has become a key piece of how movies are produced, released, and sold, it doesn’t appear that it was big enough to save either of these pictures.

都會睇嘅… kaiserwai 發表於 2015-10-5 20:30 static/image/common/back.gif
又要等reboot了
到時阿諾都唔知會點，阿諾 = 未來戰士 作為一個細細個開始睇T系列的人, 感覺係可惜的. T5我覺得唔差, 不過可能時代已經唔同所以無咩"共鳴"吧...
不過有時都寧願佢跟小說/漫畫拍好過, 故事都唔差的. (有個故事直頭是講製造skynet的公司收購了做robocop的公司所以出現了robocop vs terminator的場面~不過故事只是一般) 《魔鬼終結者：創世契機》（Terminator Genisys）雖然在評價上不太理想，北美票房甚至沒有突破一億美元，但靠著在中國大陸的票房，全球依舊開出了超過 4 億美金的成績，不禁讓人想像全新的「魔鬼終結者系列」有沒有機會發展新的世界觀？看起來大家先別那麼樂觀。根據THR的報導，耗資 1.5 億美金（不包括後期製作）拍攝的《魔鬼終結者：創世契機》縱然有著優秀的海外票房，但非常可能還是會虧損，因此續集計劃目前是先被踩住的，由此推論，本片的行銷預算非常可觀，加上阿諾對於「魔鬼終結者系列」複雜的合約內容（龐大的抽成），片商本身真正的收入其實不多；在 2019 年版權回到詹姆斯卡麥隆（James Cameron）之前，派拉蒙可能要想個方式延續這個巨大的電影系列品牌。近年中國大陸市場變成好萊塢電影眼中的巨大「肥羊」，除了盡可能的想要在此上映外，更增加了更多製作面上的實質合作，派拉蒙今年的《不可能的任務：失控國度》（Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation）就是明顯的例子，而《魔鬼終結者：創世契機》有沒有辦法因為中國大陸票房救援讓續集起死為生，就看片商如何操盤了。
轉貼 新開始未知是好是壞時就要「魔鬼終結」，真的有點可惜！ 既然係咁不如玩盡佢, 2019年還返個license出來前搵個身材好的女演員拍套女版terminator~~ XD
