Imagine you are the two guys behind this summer's diabolically bad Terminator: Salvation movie. Your film of humanity's destruction also destroys a solid 3-picture franchise and any hope of a better future (who's gonna make a sequel after that?). Then you declare bankruptcy and run from your creditors (who include among them the lead actors from both the original and your re-imagined celluloid dream: Christian Bale AND Arnold Schwarzenegger. Take it away LA Times:
The producers of "Terminator Salvation" have filed for bankruptcy and their list of creditors is a veritable "who's who" of Hollywood.
Just a day after the duo sued their investors for allegedly pushing them into a series of bad business decisions and placing what they claim is an illegal lien on their property, three companies belonging to Derek Anderson and Victor Kubicek, owners of the "Terminator" franchise rights and the producers of May's "Terminator Salvation," filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Tuesday.
