Director McG and a gang of under-the-title stars came out to show a footage reel from the upcoming Terminator Salvation.

Highlights:

• Christian Bale didn’t show up, but an Asian guy named Tim rocked an impeccable Arnold accent, and a Comic-Con star was born.
• McG strongly hinted that there will be, one way or another, a dose of Arnold in T4.
• But that could just be “disinformation” designed to preserve “the joys in going to the movies is not knowing what happens.”
• McG is enough of a Terminator fanboy that he might not screw this up.
• Ron Howard’s kid took the job just to make out with Christian Bale. Common’s “just glad that we’ve got a black man in this film.”
• The “real” trailer for the film will premiere in front of Quantum of Solace later this year.
