Halycon Group, the current owner of the franchise, has named Lionsgate the “stalking horse” bidder, which effectively means anyone who counters the offer has to outbid Lionsgate by $750,000. Feburary 5th is the closing date for the bankruptcy auction of the franchise. There could still be a bidding war that happens in the next couple weeks since Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures are both said to be interested in buy the franchise as they distributed the last picture.
Personally, I don’t care who owns it as long as they treat the property with a little respect. I was disappointed by last year’s Terminator Salvation. It had the workings of a good film, but it just wasn’t thought through and came out kind of limp. Let’s hope the next owner will be a bit more careful with the franchise.
