The picture is very good and close to a blu ray.But you do not have 3 versions (On mine anyway) Subtitle is in Spanish only. I agree.There is only one version on this DVD. There is 2 discs in the box and a nice metal sleeve. No French etc.I love that DVD but it's not the ultimate edition. I do not know where to find the ultimate edition and I do not know if it has a metal sleeve.If somebody knows, please let me know how can I recignize the ultimate and where to find itGuy
The makeup of the damage taken by the T-101 was also very well done and really did make it believable that Arnold was possibly really a machine underneath that masculine exterior.Linda Hamilton is triumphant in this role and a complete re-imagining of the character we know from the first film. That same character returned for the sequel, but this time he joined the defending team and was sent back by future John Connor to protect the past John Connor. Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original Terminator was the definitive bad guy; violent, emotionless and unstoppable. It was well deserving of the awards it won at the time and it's quite sad to know that any future Terminator movies will not pale in comparison to the brilliance of Terminator 2. What made this great was its pace, atmosphere, acting, action, script and special effects all masterfully combined to create what was undoubtedly the film of that year.The clarity of the special effects of the time was revolutionary, much like the special effects exhibited in the first Terminator. It almost makes me wonder what the hell those involved in the third Terminator movie were thinking by not casting him in the lead role once more.I honestly adore this film as it manages to become unconsciously deep and expressing of the idea to remain emotionally close whilst at the same time remaining strong in your convictions.
Another Terminator has been sent back to kill the future leader of the human resistance, now a much more powerful enemy, the T-1000 (Robert Patrick) which is a machine that is made almost entirely of liquid metal. More advanced Terminator.Judgement Day focuses around a 10 year old John Connor whose mother, Sarah has been put in a mental institute for telling the stories of the original Terminator assassination attempt and John is a rebel living in a foster home. It can morph itself to look exactly like anything it touches and mould parts of its body to sharp objects to assassinate those who get in its way. As the protector, a reprogrammed T-101 (Arnold) is sent back to protect the young rebel.Taking the guise of a police officer, the T-1000 goes on a rapid search for John and comes very close to catching him, but at the right moment is found by the T-101 and has the best man (or machine) for the job as his protector. The original Terminator was something very special and was the film that kick started the career of one of the biggest action movie stars in history. Also, hot off the cusp of the massive film, The Predator, there was no doubting there would be more interest in this solely because of Schwarzenegger's involvement. Of course, a massive budget of $102 million and the involvement of Arnold Schwarzenegger doesn't necessarily make a good film.
They managed to make the T-1000 machine utterly believable in its presence and ability to mould itself and transform at will as we were treated to particular moments in which it did just that. Most impressive was its rising from the mental hospital floor behind one of the guards, only to kill him and take his form. Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) is now a tough woman who appears tougher than the T-101 and becomes the leader of the attack on Skynet.The original Terminator movie at the time was considered really hard to top as at the time of the sequels release, the original had gained a massive cult status. Arnold is still a T-101 but was reprogrammed by future Connor to fight on the human's side, and rather than having a human enemy, the story is very much Terminator vs. The Sarah Connor from this movie is vociferously brutish in her demeanour and is clearly a woman who has experienced something very traumatic that has meant she needed to lose the core emotions that weakened her in order to survive.
Once John becomes aware of his possible future, he and the T-101 embark on a journey to not only break Sarah Connor out of the mental institute, but to destroy Skynet and prevent Judgement Day and the rise of the machines. Nobody really considered just how good this film would be and it came along at a time when Arnold was developing his career as a diverse actor, whilst still remaining loyal to the action movie genre. Edward Furlong as the main protagonist for the entire Terminator story arch displayed a perfect character and the rebellious kid attitude was performed really well by him. Buy it or rent it, either way, you will love it.
They threw in the deleted scenes in the movie, some of them really weren't needed, but otheres made the movie more interesting. Best movie out there.
This re-release is okay i guess it has a couple more special features that are worth a watch. This movie is just action packed and is just fun from start to finish. this is one of my favorite movies of all time not just action. But the real reason that this dvd was released again was for the sound and picture improvements. I have seen this movie so many times and i still have not gotten tired of it. Terminator 2 has already been released on dvd and i have to say that if you are a huge terminator fan you should buy the first one that came out it has so much detail and information about the making of the movie that it will blow you away. Let me warm you that you should have a fancy home theater to notice these improvements or else you wont really notice a change in picture or sound. But regardless this is still terminator 2 and regardless what version you nuy you wont be dissapointed.
It diddn't use CGI much, mostly miniatures, makeup, and anamatronics. My favorite is Judgement Day, but the original is also great and I am not so sure about Rise of the Machines. It shows John in foster care after his mother Sarah ended up in a mental institution when she tried to tell authorities about Judgement Day and thought she was a psycho. Arnold Schwarznegger and Linda Hamilton reprise their respective roles of the T-800 and Sarah Connor with a cameo of Michael Bhien as Kyle Reese in a deleted dream sequence, with newcomers like Robert Patrick as T-1000 and Edward Furlong as the adolesent John Connor.
John also explained why killing is wrong. The action was exciting, the storyline was worthy of picking up where its predecesor left off, and the acting was well-rehersed. The visual effects were so real. The Terminator series is one of the greatest science fiction franchises of all time. This was a great action flick that will keep you entertained for hours, now with all these extras, and an extended version. The plot is where Skynet tries again to kill John Konnor in the past and sends the T-1000 to achieve this goal, and the future Connor sends a reprogrammed T-800 to protect his younger self.
At the mall, John and his friend were attacked by the T-1000 and the T-800 comes to the rescue. John teaches him about human characteristics, such as speech, like Chill out, Hasta-la-vista, baby, no problemo, etc.
Too bad the the original version on this DVD can only be played on a P.C. The extended edition of this entry contained a lot of never-before-seen footage that helped it feel more complete.
It is because we have feelings. The CGI was only used for the T-1000 shapeshifting parts, the right way, sparingly and hardly noticeable.
Abusing CGI for living characters makes it look fake. Together, they help Sarah escape from the hospital and the trio goes to stop skynet.
If you want to play the original version on T.V., please get the original DVD revision as well.
