T2 - Extreme DVD

Summary: Throw out your old T2 DVD and buy this!
Review: First off I must admit I was very disappointed that this DVD was delayed in Canada, and I had to drive down to the States to purchase it, I just couldn't wait. But after getting a great price and finally finish watching the six hours of footage on the DVD I think it was all worth it. I have seen the movie numerous times before, and even now I still love it. The special extended version of the movie is just great, and I was kind of surprised that they actually cut some of that stuff out of the original release. None the less, I'm glad we get to see it now. Even though Canadians will have a tough time finding this, seek it out, cause you won't be sorry!

Summary: Great Disc - But you let it go out with a big BUG!
Review: I'm not going to repeat everything good that's been said about this disc. I agree 110%. However, there is a major "bug" with the disc when attempting to view the supplemental material on disc 2. If you acess the option that allows you to view the entire supplemental track in its entirety the "chapter" list screen is displayed but then goes into a "wierd" loop that never allows you to "run" the full supplement. Also, if you attempt to access the "chapter" browse option the same bug manifest itself when you select chapter 2. I would have thought with all of the promotion taking place for this disc there would have been better testing of the disc before mastering it. Maybe the studio will own up to this oversight and "repress" the disc and allow me to swap out the "buggy" one. I welcome anyones comments to the contrary as to my "discovery" of this issue with the disc.

Summary: Where is the third movie?
Review: This "ultimate" edition of Terminator 2 certainly represents the full potential of DVD--crisp picture, booming sound, and a boatload of extras. If you're the type of person who enjoys learning the intricate details of how movies are developed, filmed and marketed, this DVD is for you.

However, I have a question--where is the third version of the film? The disc offers the theatrical version and the longer "special edition" with added scenes. But the promotional material for this DVD (including Amazon's) indicated that there were three versions. I know that sometimes DVD's have hidden features that a little snooping will reveal, but I have yet to uncover the missing edition (if it's really there). Does anyone out there know what the scoop is?

Otherwise, this is a great disc of a fun movie.

Summary: What A Classy DVD
Review: Having already bought about 70 DVD's before i bought this special edition i have seen quite a few of the menu systems before. With the one the is included with T2 it is absolutly brilliant. It is really colourful and moves and sounds really good. I was surprised when i found that my copy of the film was delivered on 2 discs as aposed to the 1 disc that it was meant to be on. Apart from this small fault the rest makes a really good package and a brillant buy for anyone who likes this film or just action films. There are tons of additional features included which can take up hours of your time sitting through. Of all the films that i own this is definatley rated very close to the top. I really recommend it to anyone who is expanding their collection of films or someone who just wants to watch one of the most fun and exciting movies made again and again.

Summary: Extra footage for extra mileage
Review: I always thought T2 was missing a little something when I first saw it. It was a great film, certainly, but I always thought it was a little weird how the "good" terminator became so swiftly human-like and the T-1000 was completely unstoppable. They were minor points, but it was nice to see them addressed later when the special edition became available. That edition made this a whole new movie for me.

What we didn't see in the theaters was that the terminator had its CPU reset from read-only so it could begin to learn human behaviors and responses. We were never shown the degree to which the T-1000 was damaged by freezing solid. These scenes, restored to the film, made it a good three hours but well worth the trouble. Fans of the original release owe themselves a chance to see what was cut out.

Summary: What not 6ish star?
Review: Wow, what a DVD! This is bar far the best DVD package put together to date. Not only is T2 a classic movie, which includes great action, amazing effects, a well written script and Schwarzenegger at his best; but also a great menu system, outstanding extras and 3, YES 3 versions of the great film on offer (the third is a Easter egg, so you'll have to choose title 3 while the film has been started and you'll get the extra, extra extended version).

I won't go into the story as everybody knows the score, but this is probably James Cameron's best work to date, a truly great film, which has not been effected by time. What are you waiting for, go and buy it now.

Summary: Please.
Review: Terminator 1 was a great movie but after seeing T2 you can easily see the difference between the visuals between the two. The DVD features are packed into this thing. The commercial on TV mentioned 3 versions on the CD: Theatrical (120 mins), Special (156 mins), and a Hidden Alternate. I have no idea what this is. All I know is that I'm gonna sit here and play with this remote until I find it on this DVD. If any of you know anything about this hidden alternate stuff or have found it, email me: [e-mail]

One of the greatest things about T2 is that you have no idea at the beginning (unless your friend tells you before you see it) which terminator is the protector and which is the killer. Both of them kick some butt at the beginning. When Arnold gets his clothes it was a little giveaway that he was the good guy. Other than that, it's pretty cool all the way up to that scene at the video arcade when both terminators whip out their guns and you have no idea whats gonna happen until Arnold says "duck" or whatever. Classic. James Cameron has yet to make a crappy film. NOT THE ULTIMATE EDITION DVD, BUT THE ULTIMATE DVD.

Summary: A Definite Must Buy!!!
Review: I have waited for this phenomenal disc ever since the August 29 release date was announced, and let me tell you....It was worth every minute of the wait!! I couldn't wait until I got home to watch T2. The audio and video quality of this DVD is nothing short of brilliant!! The T2 soundtrack totally rocked my system and will continue to do so each and every time I place it in my player!!! With all of the added features included on this disc, I look to be tied up for quite some time trying to navigate through it all. This is a movie that has it all: Action, Drama, Suspense and just pure excitement!!! If you were to own just ONE DVD in your collection, then make T2:The Ultimate Edition the ultimate purchase for your home theater, I Did!!!
