Terminator 2 Blu Ray

Been looking to expand my Blu Ray collection and quite fancy this, its only £13.99 on movietyme, but it has no extra's just two commentaries, is there another version out? And it will play on my UK PS3 wont it?

Whilst im on the subject is Halloween the original Region free i quite fancy that to.

Re: Terminator 2 Blu Ray

It is listed under region free blu ray so it should play on your PS3. Only other T2 I've seen is HD DVD. I bought House of Flying daggers (region A NTSC) from Movietyme under their region free list and it plays fine on my UK BluRay player. Hope that helps.

There has been talk of a US re-release (and some coverart made a brief appearance). The US Blu-ray is fairly shoddy - if you don't have access to the European HD DVD variants I would await the new US re-release (whenever that may be).

Re: Terminator 2 Blu Ray

I have both Halloween and Terminator 2 on US Blu-ray Disc, and both play fine on my UK PS3.

The PQ/SQ on Halloween is astonishing considering the source.

Terminator 2 looks good, though isn't quite as good as the French HD DVD.

The first Terminator on US BD (also region free) is almost as impressive as Halloween.

BTW, there's a new HD DVD of Terminator 2 coming soon in Germany. It will appatently be re-mastered. It's possible that Lionsgate will use the same, new master for a US BD re-issue.

I think it's important to add that a BD re-issue is pure speculation on my part - I just find it difficult to believe that they'd do all of this purely for a German release:

Re: Terminator 2 Blu Ray

Guess it's a bit late to say its £9.46 at Axelmusic?

Movietyme won't ship til the new year when they reopen. Maybe you can cancel it before and get from Axel if you want to save a few quid?

Re: Terminator 2 Blu Ray

T2 on BD isn't the best but it's still a lot better than any of the DVD's imo.
Keep in mind it's only the theatrical cut.
