Product Description
Product Description
Story foretells a grim future in which three billion human lives will end in a nuclear war on August 29, 1997:a date which the human survivors will call Judgment Day. These humans escape the nuclear Armageddon only to face a new, more persistent nightmare... the war against the machines.

After he pushed the envelope of computer-generated special effects in The Abyss, director James Cameron turned this hotly anticipated sequel to Terminator into a well-written, action-packed showcase for advanced special effects and for one of the most invincible villains ever imagined. Terminator 2: Judgment Day is a legitimate sequel: there's more story to tell about a hulking, leather-clad android (Arnold Schwarzenegger) who arrives from the future to protect a rebellious teenager and future leader (Edward Furlong) from being killed by the tenacious T-1000 robot (Robert Patrick), whose liquid-metal construction makes him seemingly unstoppable. The fate of the future lies in the balance, with Linda Hamilton (who would later marry her director) reprising her role as the rugged woman whose son will change the course of history. --Jeff Shannon

The movie speaks for itself with how awesome it is - I wouldn't be saying anything that hasn't already been said regardless of how much I praised the movie itself. It's one of the best movies ever made, plain-and-simple. What I wanted to focus on is reassuring anyone looking to watch this in the US that it does work just fine watching it through a PS4 with a PSVR1.
So, to start: Even if you have a PSVR1, you still need to run that through a PS4 in order to watch this, or any 3D movie for that matter - A PS5 will not work. Why that is is because the PS4 is recognized as a '3D bluray player' while the PS5 is not - Due to this, 3D movies will not even run on a PS5 (it will simply come up with a message saying it isn't a 3D bluray player). This is an extremely unnecessary and stupid oversight on Sony's part, but it falls into the category of 'It is what it is', and it's best to know about these limitations so you don't order this and not be able to enjoy it. Also: The PSVR2 does not run 3D movies at all, probably largely because PSVR2s can only function with a PS5 which Sony didn't bother making compatible.
If you still have a PS4 and PSVR1 from the US, this will run just fine. The default audio is the audio from the original movie (it's in English). Japanese subtitles are turned on by default, but it is as simple as pressing a button once the movie is playing to bring up the menu that's built into the PS4 (I believe you press square to bring it up) and you can disable the subtitles from there - After that, you're watching the exact same 3D movie that you could've (and may have) seen in 2017 in theaters in the US. And, again: It's easier to disable the subtitles once the movie is playing with the PS4 menu since all the bluray menus are in Japanese, but the PS4 menu will be in English. So, in short: You don't need to know any Japanese in order to figure this out - It's pretty obvious what to select to make the movie play, then you can disable the subtitles through an English menu.
As for the 3D itself, it is extremely impressive and it's very trippy being able to see such an old movie in a new way. If you have a PS4, PSVR1, and the patience to sit down and watch a movie with a VR headset on, I'd highly recommend getting this. But, the main purpose of this review was to reassure those with a US PS4 and PSVR1 that it will run just as it did in theaters in 2017. Pretty awesome since they did such a limited run of the 3D blurays in the US that this movie is nearly impossible to find, and usually very expensive when you can find it.
So, if you do pick this up, enjoy!
Japan version, the black box one, only contains one blue ray. It has the movie in both 2D and 3D version.
I do wish someday we can also include the universal studio’s theme park terminator 3D in.
So classic and I love the movie
And `evolution' is a good way of looking at it. "T2" is not some cheesy installment in a bloated cinematic franchise, designed to generate mega-$'s for all concerned, while shortchanging the viewer with a bland or worthless story line, cardboard FX, and Z-list performances. No, "T2" is a legitimate continuation of the original "Terminator," creating more of the backstory and mythology of the "Terminator" universe, and taking us closer to the day when Skynet achieves consciousness and decides to wage its war of global extermination against Mankind. In fact, the genesis of the "T2" story can be seen in one of the deleted scenes contained on the "Terminator, Special Edition" disc; Sarah Connor, tired of being hunted, decides to take the fight to Skynet's creator, the Cyberdyne Corporation, which, as shown in yet another deleted scene, is where the climactic fight against the original terminator took place!
And this, literally, is the key to "T2." When the original terminator was crushed in the press, the company salvaged its CPU/chip, damaged and inoperable, plus one arm. It's the research done on the CPU that leads to the computing breakthrough that leads to the creation of Skynet, which created the terminators in the first place! And just as Skynet sent a terminator back through time to ensure John Connor couldn't interfere with its plans, Sarah Connor attempts to stop the creation of Skynet itself in the present... you see where this is going? There're probably a couple of pretty nasty time-travel paradoxes involved in all of this - maybe we should ask Dr Who! - but it doesn't matter, the story carries you effortlessly along and doesn't let you start going `round and `round in those kinds of ever diminishing circles!
The basic set-up is as follows, having failed in killing Sarah Connor in the original "Terminator," Skynet dispatches yet another terminator, a state of the art T-1000, this time to kill John Connor while he's a young teenager. And just as before, the adult John Connor dispatches a guardian, in the shape of an old T-800 terminator, reprogrammed to protect him at all costs.
And it's the difference between the two terminators that is one of the main joys of the film. The T-1000 is a shape-shifting "liquid metal" creation, able to morph into almost any guise it needs, as long as the end result is the same basic size, or volume, as itself. This basic characteristic is one of the elements that delayed the making of "T2." James Cameron had the idea for the "shape shifter" when making the original "Terminator," but it took the intervening years for cinematic CGI FX to catch up with Cameron's imagination, so the T-1000 could be portrayed convincingly on-screen!
Robert Patrick plays the "human" T-1000, and his performance is as different from the original terminator as is the technology he represents. "Ahnald's" original performance set the standard, relentless and robotic, unstoppable, like a semi spinning out of control on an ice covered freeway; get out of the way or be obliterated. Robert Patrick gives a more subtle, more nuanced, performance; he's smaller, sleeker, faster, his is the relentlessness of a shark moving in for the kill, a thing of terrible beauty that cannot be swayed or negotiated with. But the T-1000 also knows something of human frailty, of pain, and how to use it to its advantage. Whereas the original terminator simply slaughtered anything that got in its way, the T-1000 actually tortures Sarah Connor in one scene in an effort to make her give up her son, telling her, "I know this must hurt..."
"Ahnald's" performance, as the old-tech T-800 model terminator, is also more varied, and this is explained in, what I think is, the most important scene deleted from the original theatrical release, but reinstated in this "Ultimate Edition." Sarah, having been broken out of an asylum by her son and his newest bestest buddy - his very own terminator! - is holed up in a disused gas station with John and the Terminator. The T-800 explains, while Sarah digs bullets out of its back, that it's possible for the terminators to learn, to adapt to their environments, but a switch on the CPU has to be reset to allow this behavior; the default setting is the unstoppable hunter killer, with no need of subtlety. But here's the catch, to make the change, which will allow the Terminator to better protect John, the CPU has to be removed, effectively shutting down the Terminator, then reset and reinstalled. The CPU is removed, but Sarah tries to destroy it, saying it'll be one less terminator, and John, exerting his authority for the first time, convinces his mother that they need the Terminator if they are to survive, and more importantly, stop the creation of Skynet. From here on in, the film roars to its finale as Sarah takes the fight to Cyberdyne by, literally, zeroing in on Dr Miles Dyson, the scientist who obsessively cracks the secret of the original terminator CPU.
"T2" lacks the sheer visceral punch of the original; it's a more refined, mature, and carefully thought out film, but that's no criticism, the set pieces will blow you away, and the CGI, absolutely state of the art at the time, STILL stands up today. This is controlled action and mayhem for grown-ups, and "Ahnald" was true to his word when he said, "I'll be back!"
I already have this movie in DVD and Blueray but not a digital copy of it and not in 4K. Not currently available on vudu or moviesanywhere but the price on Amazon was good (12 bucks and with Amazon points was a lot cheaper).
Picture and sound quality wise Digital copy is a very clear and sharp picture with Dolby Digital Plus sound, while I haven't yet watched the 4K extended version disc I imagine the picture and sound quality will be as good or better. I just received the the Movie and watching the digital copy currently and will watch the 4K disc later.
I'm not going to do a review of the movie itself, The first terminator movie came out in 1984 and this movie is the first sequel in the world of the terminator stories. I can't imagine there is anyone who hasn't heard of the terminator movies. If there is... go watch them, what are you waiting for? Judgement day?

It is that familiar and wholesome Californian glow about the film that we adored worldwide on VHS, and both Ultimate and Extreme Edition DVDs (Extreme DVD being the best looking T2 on DVD) that we have here (ASIN: B00UFMKSDW). Grain has been left mostly or entirely intact, which renders that filmic look quite brilliantly! I imagine, the frustrated and loyal restoration folks pledged unto fans in a secret oath ceremony and released this 2015 version (ASIN: B00UFMKSDW) without letting James Cameron fiddle with it as he did all other blu-rays afterwards and before. Whatever they did, they did great! This is the best looking T2 on blu-ray closer to its tape and DVD days; and as per genuine reviewers who saw it in theatres, closer to its original theatrical colour grading. None of these blu-ray releases have the original theatrical audio mix; one that they released only on the original version's DVD, which still fares better than all the tweaked tracks that came afterwards in all subsequent releases.
The only iffy hiccup with this one (ASIN: B00UFMKSDW) is, it does not have the third version which is the longest cut of them all, the extended special edition (Ultimate edition DVD mentioned above, the Skynet Edition blu-ray and the evil waxed botoxian teal-hysteria 4K have it). It simply inserts in the special edition, two extra scenes:
- one where T-1000 goes through / scans Kyle's room in a genius yet evil manner,
- and the ending CODA or that adorable alternate ending of Old Sarah (Linda Hamilton aged as fine wine in real life, by the way).
However, both these scenes are accessible on YouTube but having watched the film that way on DVD many a time, it is sad that it wasn't included in this release because if it were present, this release is all you would need for T2 that remains faithful to its film elements on silver screen, LD, tapes and DVDs!
This disc was originally released in 2015. The packaging / writing on back has been slightly updated when this particular one (ASIN: B00UFMKSDW) was re-released in 2019 but everything is exactly the same printed on disc as well as barcode and back cover; just changed spots and font. I even compared it with the original 2015 disc on ebay. On the front cover, artwork is the same, except this one doesn't have the line that says, includes both theatrical and special edition cuts.
I could see grain for the first time!
I did not see teal madness in that sweet golden hour shot!
I did not see any of the evil trait that unholy 4K was plagued with!
That made me happy!
Thanks for your time!

En cuanto al producto en si, viene incluida la pelicula en los formatos UDH Blu Ray y Blu Ray estandar, la calidad de imagen del UHD es realmente sensacional mas tomando en cuenta el tiempo que tiene esta pelicula, no tiene el granulado que caracteriza a las peliculas que fueron filmadas en 35mm, este fue removido por medio de DNR, quizas a los puristas esto no les agrade mucho pero para mi es un gran plus ya que le una gran calidad de imagen y en verdad parece que fue filmada mas recientemente. El sonido creo que es el punto mas debil de esta pelicula, se hubiera agradecido una version con Dolby Atmos, en cambio es la misma calidad de audio que las versiones anteriores en Blu Ray, no es mala pero no es lo que se esperaria de la version UHD.
Una gran pelicula, y en definitiva es por mucho la version que tiene la mejor calidad de imagen.
