About this deal

Terminator: 6-Film Collection Blu-ray delivers great video and superb audio in this enjoyable Blu-ray release surround activity. (Cameron said at the time that he chose to allocate most of his budget to visual records, still holding that distinction more than a decade after its theatrical release. Of all the Supplements are duplicated from the previous Blu-ray releases. There is some fairly interesting stuff here, but it's unlikely that fans haven't already seen or heard it all countless times before. All of the special features are provided in standard definition with Dolby Digital 2.0 audio and optional English subtitles (unless noted otherwise).

Blu-ray.com and Lionsgate Films are offering members a chance to win copies of Terminator 2: Judgment DayWell we don't know for sure that there is another version coming to the UK, but this version was released in the US in May 2015. So it would seem that the blu ray release for T1 are pretty much better versions of this, which is the version I'm looking to replace, but with the original text in the opening scene restored from the VHS version. Basically the Skynet version but without the DNR which was the problem with the Skynet version. Also has the Theatrical cut (as well as the extended cuts).

This brings us to the new transfer's most controversial and only potentially off-putting aspect -- its altered color timing. Yes, it's true, many scenes do offer a comparatively teal hue. With that said, I actually think the adjusted style works pretty well, and while the frequently blue/greenish tinting isn't always appealing, I never found it to be particularly distracting (and I'm not usually a fan of this look). Likewise, the entire runtime isn't completely slathered in teal, and there is some nice pop in bright outdoor scenes. In fact, there are a few shots that actually look a bit more natural than the previous transfer, which occasionally had more of a washed out, faintly magenta/purple push to it. Now of course the question becomes which color timing is more faithful to the original theatrical presentation -- and unfortunately, I'm simply in no position to answer that. For what it's worth, this seems to be how James Cameron wants the film to look now, and while some fans are certainly free to disagree, I think the resulting image is quite strong. On the narrative front, Cameron's script is strong on ideas, but a bit broad on characterizations -- something that remains a common trait in much of the director's work. On the plus side, the overarching premise is pure sci-fi gold, brilliantly balancing a classic high concept idea with a surprisingly intimate and self-contained scope. Deeper themes dealing with the concepts of "man versus machine" and the violent pitfalls of technology are all potent and remain just as relevant today as when the movie was first released. While the screenplay does wear some clear influences on its sleeve, the film never becomes truly derivative (though, Harlan Ellison would certainly disagree), and quite to the contrary, it has gone on to inform an entire subgenre of science fiction. score courtesy of Brad Fiedel, his music seemingly itself telling the story as it unfolds. The theme have more in the way of noise reduction applied to it versus the previous release, but it also looks Paramount Pictures and Skydance Productions officially announced today that principal photography of the highly anticipated Terminator reboot is underway in New Orleans. Paramount Pictures will distribute the film on July 1, 2015.

It's been a long time coming, but the Blu-ray gods have finally answered our prayers. After several worthless double dips, the film has at last been given a remastered video presentation to replace the old, problematic, and oftentimes ugly MPEG-2 transfer found on all previous editions. Now provided with a 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 encode in the 1.85:1 aspect ratio, with the exception of one possible caveat, this new transfer offers a rather remarkable improvement all across the board.
