Rustle Up A Few Million And The Terminator Franchise Can Be Yours!
Cinema Blend News —
... reported the news that the rights are for sale, and also printed a hilarious open letter from Joss Whedon, offering $10,000 (that's four zeros!) for the rights. One of Whedon's brilliant ideas for the franchise: 1) Terminator... of the Rings! Yeah, what if he time-travelled TOO far... back to when there was dragons and wizards? (I think it was the Dark Ages.) Hasta La Vista, Boramir! Cool, huh? "Now you gonna be Gandalf the Red!" RRRRIP! But then he totally helps, because he's a cyborg and he doesn't give a s# & % about the ring -- it has no power over him! And he can carry ...

Joss Whedon Puts in a Bid for the Terminator Franchise!!!
Film Junk —
... and Deadline Hollywood , the man behind Buffy the Vampire Slayer , Firefly and Dollhouse offers up a tidy sum of $10,000 for the franchise, and proceeds to give some of his ideas about what to do with it. As expected, there is at least one reference to his good friend Summer Glau, who appeared in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and must have been part of the inspiration for this little write-up. Oh Joss… must you always be the class clown? I’m not sure what the point of all this is except that he thought it would be a real gas. It seems like he is implying that ...
Joss Whedon Bids on Terminator Franchise
Pajiba —
... Hellmouth and succotash, ladybirds and gentlefolk. Joss Whedon — the man who provides dreams that only FOX can smash — wants the rights to the Terminator franchise and figures he can get them cheap. And why not?

So, Whedon — in an open letter — is offering $10,000 to take the rights off of Halycyon Entertainment, and even makes several promises, in exchange for said rights: 1) Terminator… of the Rings ! Yeah, what if he time-traveled TOO far… back to when there was dragons ...

... Joss Whedon, creator of the falling Fox series Dollhouse and Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, kiddingly bid $10,000 for the rights in addition to printing an open letter saying how he would rename it “Terminator…of the Rings!” among other things. It’s kind of a hard idea to perceive since Terminator was such a big deal at one point in time, but I don’t think that the series is even worth saving 25 years after the original was released. ...
