Next Terminator film set for 2009

The BBC says that the next Terminator film is set to be released in 2009, so it must be true.

What does not sound encouraging is this:

"Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins will be the first in a proposed trilogy of films reinventing the cyborg saga."

And it needs reinventing why? Because the original films were bad? Are dated? Erm no. So I think it means, we can't match the originals so we'll take the franchise and make something a bit rubbish but cash in because it's a reimagining.
