London, December 19 (ANI): James Cameron, who had written and directed the first Terminator film, feels the latest sequel didn’t feel authentic due to the absence of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

However, the ‘Avatar’ helmer acknowledged that director, McG, had done a good job, even though Schwarzenegger made only a brief cameo appearance in the film.

“Interestingly, I think McG did a good job. I think he was almost too referential to the myths of the first and second film. He over-quoted them in a way,” the Daily Express quoted him as telling Ugo.com

He added: “It didn’t feel to me to be enough of a reinvention. The thing we did with the second film is that we reinvented the first film completely; spun it on its a** and made the Terminator the good guy, and came up with a whole new concept for a villain, it felt fresh.

“I didn’t feel the fourth picture was fresh enough. It also lacked a certain stamp of authenticity because Arnold wasn’t in it. I mean, he was in it briefly, digitally, but that’s not the same thing.” (ANI)
