Ngaphandle kwengxelo elungileyo ngokubanzi evela kubagxeki, "i-protor: Imisebenzi eminyama" ayiphumelelanga kwi-ofisi ye-255 yezigidi kuhlahlo-lwabiwo mali lwe- $ 185 yezigidi. Akuncedi ukuvuselela i-linda hamilton okanye i-arnold schwarzenegger , kwaye into yokuba umgcini-slikiti kunye ne-cozer ifilimu yayinguJamery Cameron. Nangona kunjalo, umlawuli wepeyinti kaTi Miller wenza ukuba kucace ukuba wayenomahluko omkhulu ngexesha lomsebenzi wenxalenye entsha yomphathi phakathi kwakhe noCameron.
Imeko enguMieller yagqabaza ngale nto:
Ndiqinisekile ukuba ungabhala incwadi malunga nokuba kutheni le filimu ayisebenzi. Andiqinisekanga ukuba kwakungenjalo, ukuqhubeka nokucingisisa, kodwa ndiyazingca ngalo mfanekiso. Ezo zinto zingakhange zithande abaphulaphuli uninzi lwazo lwalulawulwa ngulawulo lwam. Ewe, sasihlala siphikisana noJim [Cameron] - zombini kwiimpindezelo nganye kunye nento eyayimele ukuba yi "mkhosi". Mna, ekuphela kwendlela yokuthiyisa lo tshaba kukuya kwixesha elidlulileyo kwaye ndiyitsale kwi-bud. Kodwa uJim wathi: "Yintoni eyona nto ibalulekileyo ekwenzeni abantu?" Ndaphendula ke ndaphendula: "Yintoni le nto abantu abahlala bephumelela?" Kodwa nokuba ndimiselwe ukuba ndinikezele ezi ngxabano, kufuneka ndiqhubeke ndilwa, kuba lityala kuwo wonke umlawuli. Ekugqibeleni, bendinokufakwa kwifilimu into ebizwa ngokuba yiJim.
Ngombuzo wokuba ufuna ukuqhubeka nokusebenzisana noCameron, uMiller uphendule kakubi, kodwa kwangaxeshanye ukongeza ukuba ubudlelwane babo buqu zihlala zinobuhlobo. NgokukaMiller, akafuni ukuphinda afumane imeko apho angayi kulawula kwifilimu yakhe.
