Yes it was a technical marvel but it was so ahead of its time with the design of its world and gameplay(in the first half). Copyright © TheTerminatorFans.com 2009 - 2020. Not good. See also that Avatar was opened up to 1.78:1 for IMAX 3D and home video release. Wow, 13 yrs old game looking better than the upcoming halo. If he’s going to a variable aspect ratio for the T2 3D conversion, this is not much of a variation from his standard practices.Obviously times have changed and options have increased but we were speaking more about his earlier works and recalling from memory how he did specifically want T2 to be viewed in the letter-box/widescreen format at the time for a truer cinema feel/experience at home.We have only ever experienced Terminator 2 in the widescreen format.

Messy. Fellow Terminator fan Marcuseus put together some nice comparison images for us to share with you; comparing home release editions of Terminator 2 and the new Terminator 2 3D release…For starters we can see the color change is part of the remaster, obviously we have a much sharper HD image but the biggest most notable difference (in the images) is restoration of previously cropped off footage, in the above image we can nearly see ALL of the Harley Davidson Fat Boy when previously we could only see the top half of the motorcycle!James Cameron was a huge fan of the letter-box/widescreen format in his movies (widescreen being his preferred choice for T2), is this now a change of heart from Mr. Cameron or will letter-boxing (the black space at the top and bottom of the movie) still possibly be retained in the 3D release itself, or has Cameron Terminated letter-boxing for this release all together?We are going to be more or less seeing T2 in a completely fresh and different way to what we have seen previously, it is not uncommon for a remaster to restore previously cropped off edges, we saw this with home releases/remasters of The Terminator (but we are still waiting for our mono sound restore of the first movie- give it to us NOW).Just look at how dark the Blu-Ray is with fixed aspect ratio, it is as if James Cameron has switched a giant light bulb on.

The difference is a lot bigger than I was expecting but also less clear cut. I thought C3 was decent. THE CASE FOR TERMINATOR 2. The world was so caught off-guard by the special effects of Terminator 2 — and the liquid metal bad guy played by Robert Patrick remains an incredible villain and a vital part of American popular culture 26 years later — that we sometimes forget just how sturdy and resonate the movie's story is..

The UK T-1000 Edition VHS release omits one scene from the theatrical version.

All Rights Reserved. Clunk and bad story. Considering the series has lost what made it popular in the last few releases here’s hoping that the 1 & 2 Remaster can deliver on its promise and if it releases without being a broken mess then the ... It’s About Time looks to take the series in a full Terminator… In the original theatrical cut, during the Cyberdyne break-in sequence, Dyson and John are seen entering the security vault and smashing the glass cases to obtain the Terminator arm and CPU, with John then saying, "We've got Skynet by the balls now". Crysis 1 is severely under appreciated as a game.

We really do hate unnecessary CGI here at TheTerminatorFans.com!The bad to the bone scene at The Corral Bar and Grill; imagine what it will be like to re-watch T2 remastered, it will definitely bring more watch-ability to the movie to see it in sharp HD, our eyes are definitely going to be scanning the top and bottom of the screen when we first see it, that is for sure…We see more and more that the dark blue lighting tone of Terminator 2 is being toned down, this is one of our favorite things about the early work of James Cameron; but it isn’t gone completely.One of the slogans used for the Special Edition AKA ‘T-1000 Edition’ was “More than meets the eye” also a Transformers slogan Terminator 2: 3D definitely keeps that sentiment going in 2017!Terminator 2: 3D looks like it was filmed this year and not over 25 years ago… hats off to James Cameron, Lightstorm Entertainment, Hollywood Technicolor and Stereo D; you have all done the fans proud!A big thanks to STUDIOCANAL and DMG for also making this remaster happen and for reigniting our passion for the series and for re-fueling our hopes that a canon/direct sequel to Terminator 2 can happen and that it will live up to legacy and the high bar Jim set back in 1984 and 1991!We hope to see more pictures soon, especially of Sarah Connor and The T-1000 in full HD glory!When the home release of Terminator 2: Judgment Day 3D arrives; we still hope we get the old version on the disc and a 2D version of the remaster on Blu-Ray and DVD for the fans who have not made the leap to Blu-Ray or 3D yet.Maybe a nice special feature would be the option to switch into a side by side view of the old version and the new version like the images above so we can see how different the versions are and of course some new commentaries and features!I don’t think it’s accurate to call James Cameron a “fan” of letterboxing.
