Summary: "Metal Case" Version will "rip" plastic case
Review: Love the movie... just a quick note about the version that comes in the METAL CASE. It looks COOL, but once I slid it out of the METAL CASE (which was tough), sliding it back in causes the stiff plastic covering on the "normal case" to tear and rip (the sharp metal edges on the metal cover do this. Maybe I got a badly manufactured version. Not a comment on the movie, but just beware of the cool case (i had to get rid of it since it was "eating up" the normal case every time I slid it in and out). JUST FYI...

Summary: one of the best works that I was moved
Review: Terminator2 is the best movie that I was moved. Though I love Terminator1 too, love 2 more. More than 10 years passed sinse this movie was roadshowed, but I don't feel that the work is out of day. One of the reasons will be what the work was used computer grafic, for instance the newest terminator, Requid Metal was burn and got to requid by heat, the scene was real and wonderful scene used so great computer grafic that I can not believe more than 10 years ago. Off course in Japan too the movie was big hit movie.
The battle of T800 and T1000 was scenes that was moved me, the reality, exciting, the scene broken wall by their attacking, by shot-gun the scene that penetrate T1000....
Now even, this work will be not inferior to other movies. [AD2029, in the earth after atomic bomb war, the war of Mathine and Human have started, Mathine sent the Terminator into the childhood of the Human director Konar and tried to kill her.
Against that, Konar sent her Terminator into the age....]
This was the sub writing of title the other day.
Whan we read upon writing, there is not person that don't feel anything. That was the story that was moved. Thank you for reading poor English.

Summary: The 1st DVD is also worth it.
Review: I haven't read all 531 reviews here as of this writing, but most everyone seems to focus on the 2nd DVD with the Hi-Def content. I actually bought the Extreme DVD for the high def content, but then decided the set was worth it for the 1st DVD alone. The 1st DVD disc has two things that totally thrilled me. An interactive mode which completely details all the special effects on screen and lets you break-away at several key-points to hear about sound, special effects and production notes from many of the people involved in the film. To me this is much more compelling than a Director's narrative. The other thing that totally blew me away on the 1st DVD is the Dolby Headphone Soundtrack. I've heard many headphone oriented surround technologies, but nothing like this. The sound over headphones is truely awesome. If I din't know I was watching a movie I would absolutely think the dogs barking in one particular scene were outside my condo. I actually prefer it to listening to the soundtrack over my thousand dollar speaker system. One other note the picture quality of the 1st DVD seems signifigantly better than the quality of the origional DVD release of T2. I often found it hard to beleive I was watching a DVD. I didn't consider myself a huge T2 fan before I bought this DVD, but it has defintely made me a bigger one. The high-def content is nice, but it doesn't make the set in my opinion.

Summary: Brazil cannot see this movie
Review: I'm really disapoined to see that a new format supported by Artisan and Microsoft have a downloadble Trailer that can run here in Brazil and the Extreme DVD cannot.. Why that? Do they have plans to make a Brazilian version of this High Definition movie? I think not... They should allow all the world to see the DVD or to create many region DVDs to the other countries...

Summary: HD version, worth it?
Review: Ok, I bought this DVD when it first came out for one reason only, the high definition version playable only on a PC (disk two). I was extremely dissapointed when my fairly high end computer (at the time) was unable to provide anything resembling a smooth framerate. It was awful. At the time, my 2.0g P4 processor, 512mb rdram, and ATI 9800pro 128 were not gonna cut it. I couldn't believe it. Amazon was extremely kind to allow me to return it, even though it was against their policy (thanks Jeff). According to some techies at InterActual, the HD DVD hits the main processor really hard. The recommendations stated a 3.0g processor, which I was no where near. I couldn't understand why they hadn't designed it to use more video card resources, after all, it's more likely that people have a high end 128mb video card than a 3.0g processor (especially a year ago!).
Well a year has passed. Since then, my computer has been upgraded to a 2.6 processor, plus I've added another gig of rdram for 1.5 total. I didn't do these upgraded with this DVD in mind, but I figured I'd try it out again and see. Lo and behold the HD version now plays at about 95 to 99% smoothness. Bottom line: if you are concerned about whether or not your computer will run this pc-only high definition version- you should be! But please use my experience to guide you. You may or may not need a 3.0 processor, but you better be pretty close and have plenty of ram for the processor to fall back on. What does the HD version actually look like? It looks very good, but nowhere near as good as regualar high definition televsion that you can pick up for free over the airwaves. Did you know that you can get HD for free with your existing antenna??? Now you do...

Summary: T2 High Def Windows Media 9 version a Bust
Review: A caution about this version of T2. The second disc of this 2 dvd set is recorded in encrypted Microsoft Windows Media 9 format. I purchased it based on my very favorable experience with "Coral Reef Adventure" (also on dual dvd and WM9 Hi-Def dvd formats). For those not familiar with the WM9 Hi-Def format, it will only playback on a Windows XP computer with the latest version of Windows Media 9 installed. Furthermore, the disc will insist on installing the InterActual DVD Player, version 2.0. This, would be OK, in my opinion, were it not for the fact that: (1) the installation of the player requires an update, which, in turn, requires that IE6 be your default browser; if not, you get into an endless loop trying to install the update from a non-windows browser like Mozilla Firefox or Opera; and (2) unless you are under 13 year of age, the InterActual player insists on collecting "annonymous" demograpic info every time you play this "hi-def" version of the film. It also insists on the user providing his correct email address, zipcode, sex and age! Of course, you could provide misinformation here. Having paid good money for this 2 disc set, I see no justification, at all, for any form of snooping on my viewing habits - annonymous or not. Nor do I see why I should be forced to provide info about myself. If this doesn't change ASAP, this will be the last time I buy any Microsoft Hi-Def movie disc. The WM9 Hi-Def version of this film is only minimally better than the standard dvd version on disc 1. On a good playback system using a decent progressive dvd player with component output to a good plasma or CRT monitor, I think the standard dvd displays about 98% of what you see on the so called "Hi-Def" version on disc 2, and you don't have to jump through hoops to install it and be annoyed by unwelcomed snooping of your viewing habits. Interestingly, another hi-def flick using WM9 called "Coral Reef Adventure" doesn't have any of the drawbacks of T2, and is an awesome hi-def experience at either 720P or 1080P. "Coral Reef Adventure" is very highly recommend and does not require installation of the InterActual Player. Also, Coral Reef Adventure will show you what a difference there is between the standard 480i dvd version and the 720P/1080P Hi-Def version - provided you have the right equipment(for 720P you will need a 2.4 GHz cpu; 4x AGP video card and monitor that can display 1280x720. For 1080P, you'll need a 3.0+ GHZ cpu; 8x AGP video card and monitor than can display 1920x1080. As for T2 - Extreme Edition, if you must have this version, skip disc 2 and watch disc 1 only, better yet, buy T2-Ultimate Edition instead. I give disc 1 - 4 stars for the film and display quality.
I give disc 2 - 2 stars because of the difficulty created by Microsoft's Draconian installation and the InterActual Player's unappreciated demand for any form of user personal information and "annonymous" demographic snooping.

Summary: The best Terminator
Review: I am a big fan of the Terminator movie's.
I feel that Terminator 2:Judgement Day is the
best one out of all 3 movie's. Why you ask? This one has the best special
effect's and the most action and a better
story line and the acting is better than
than it is in the third movie. This is a must own for every Terminator fan.
I reccomend the dvd if you have a dvd player.
Alway's remember that video cassette tapes
will not last forever,only dvd's will last
a life time.

Summary: Great sequel
Review: T2 is an excellent movie. The effects, the acting, etc. The thing i didn't like about T2 was that it didn't have the same suspensful feeling as the first one. I saw the first one as a little kid, and the red eyeball scared the hell outta me, especially because Arnold had half of his face ripped off. T2 was definetly a better movie in terms of special effects. But it didn't have as good of a story line to it. I also didn't like Linda Hamilton's acting in it. She's too tough and mannish.
