Terminator 2 3D

Supposedly 3D is jaw dropping on OLED TVs and this comes from people who have hated 3d on everything else....

I can confirm this, I got the LG OLED65E6V about 2 months ago, quite simply, the best 3D i have ever seen, in and outside of the cinema. I would say if everyone saw 3D like this at it's inception it wouldn't have failed.

It's one was the best purchases I have ever made and don't regret a single penny of the £3000 i paid for it.
 
i've got the 55E6V, i concur. Fury Road is incredible, just watching Maleficent at the mo, loving it. OLED pic itself is jaw-dropping, the night city shots in John Wick are staggeringly beautiful.

Maybe this info is buried somewhere, but which cut is this? I stand by the extended cut, the theatrical edition misses so much.

knowing Cameron he'll do the normal cut, then do the extended cut later to milk more money out of it. a la the 18 versions of Aliens or whatever the count was.
 
I think i'll just get the Cameron overseen 4K UHD blu-ray. I know they've tweaked a few niggle issues like the windshield falling out of the truck when it drops in to the LA Canals, I've also read they've put Arnies face on the really obvious bike stunt double when John Connor is lifted off his motocross bike.

I was listening to an interview with him promoting T2:3D. Someone was firing 'listener questions' at him and he started espousing 3D and saying that it only really works if a movie is filmed specifically for 3D, then he realised what he was saying and went back in to PR mode

"3D is not a post-process, it's not like doing the music or the sound effects. It's something that should be part of the offering of the film, it should be done during the time the cinematography is being done....."

"That said if you've got a 26 year old movie that is perceived as a classic and you have the time to do it right there's nothing wrong with a conversion"

Cameron has little to do with that. In general the Studios are the ones milking it, not sure if Cameron technically even has full right of the Franchise back yet...think he gets them back next year.
There was two versions of Aliens, so now sure what you are on about.
The Directors cut, was indeed Camerons full version of the movie. Back in the day, the studio told him to cut the movie down, as they believed then that no one wanted to sit and watch a movies for over 2 hours. His version was the version he always intended for the theatrical release.
 
Not all of the special edition cut of T2 is better IMO. The Hicks dream sequence for instance.

Same with Aliens really. The extra backstory of Ripley is good, and the scenes with auto-turrets is good. I'm not so sure we need to see Newts dad getting facehugged or Ripley and Hicks exchanging first names.

I think some of it could be edited out and some halfway house between Theatrical and Special Edition would be better.
 
Going to see this with a few friends, can't wait.

I saw it in the cinema when I was 12.
Couldn't give a toss about 3D, I just want to see it on the big screen again.

Oh yeah, Predator is having a 30th anniversary cinema re-release on the 11th of November.
 
OMG THAT WAS SOOO GOOD. Frankly I spaffed everywhere. Doesn't get better than that. HD and 3D was incredible - such detail and so many little things I had never seen before. You could deffo see the T1000 with the 3 arms in the chopper and I even spotted a goof... Sarah with holes for pierced ears in the hospital. Such mind melting detail... 10/10 for the film and 10/10 for the presentation.
 
Just got back from this myself and loved it. I avoid 3d at the cinema but couldn't pass up the chance to watch T2 in the cinema and it was great :) 3d added some depth here and there which is all 3d ever does for me. What a film
 
Brilliant transfer. 3d was good but not overly imposing and as nitefly said you could pick out quite a few more of the little details that you may miss on the small screen.
 
It's so good! Looks amazing, sounds amazing and they sure don't make action movies like this any more. I can imagine all the awful CG they would use these days.

Really worth seeing. Arnold is truly one of the movie stars of our time!
 
I managed to get to see it earlier and it was really, really well done.
I think our local cinema had to open a second screen for it as they only had the one time slot, and I'm sure when I first checked only one screening but when we went there were two screeens showing it at the same time.

If it wasn't for a few of the original SFX's looking a little ropey (the city being nuked), it could have passed for a film that was made recently with 3D in mind.

He certainly is - and yet so underrated as a serious actor. His Hamlet was truly one of a kind:

 
The opening scenes in 3D..... hhnnnggggg.

Very well done, glad I went to see it :)

Saw this last night with the missus. Fantastic stuff, it was her first time seeing it and she really liked it - which is saying something for this kind of movie.
I'm going soft in my old age though, Bratty McWhiney-Whinge didn't annoy as much as before.
