Terminator 2.Judgement Day-DVD9 X264 1080p DTS.mkv

Here we have another classic sci-fi HD product from the BD workshop. I'm sure this movie needs no introduction. T2 raised the bar for sci-fi computer generated imagery (CGI) when the movie premiered in 1991. T2 is the rare exception to the adage that all sequels are usually inferior to the predecessor. Note that this is the original theatrical version, as released on BD in 2006.

The video is encoded using X264 with the parameters that are compatible with your set top Blu-ray player if properly formatted and burned to BD. The bitrate is such that allows the final product to fit on a single dual layered DVD (DVD9). The high bitrate DTS audio is quite good.

Playback Tips: I use BSplayer or VLC to play the show on the PC. You will need special filters to decode the AC3 and X264 to use BSplayer or WMP.

After he pushed the envelope of computer-generated special effects in The Abyss, director James Cameron turned this hotly anticipated sequel to Terminator into a well-written, action-packed showcase for advanced special effects and for one of the most invincible villains ever imagined. Terminator 2: Judgment Day is a legitimate sequel: there's more story to tell about a hulking, leather-clad android (Arnold Schwarzenegger) who arrives from the future to protect a rebellious teenager and future leader (Edward Furlong) from being killed by the tenacious T-1000 robot (Robert Patrick), whose liquid-metal construction makes him seemingly unstoppable. The fate of the future lies in the balance, with Linda Hamilton (who would later marry her director) reprising her role as the rugged woman whose son will change the course of history. --Jeff Shannon

The killer cyborg who was played by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original "Terminator" (1984) has returned-only this time he's the hero. The first film, which was written and directed by James Cameron, is one of the genre-movie classics of the eighties: a lean, witty science-fiction movie without great pretensions to significance. The sequel, also written (with William Wisher) and directed by Cameron, is far less satisfying. The picture is full of spectacular action sequences and dazzling special effects, but the narrative doesn't have the snap of the original's: it's lumbering and monotonous, and it carries a heavy-handed anti-nuke message. The old, Schwarzenegger-model Terminator (the T-800) had been superseded by a more advanced model, the T-1000 (Robert Patrick), who is sleeker and more versatile. T-800, who represented the ultimate in destructive technology in the first film, seems almost human here: compared to T-1000, he's a vulnerable guy (or guyoid). The whole movie is based on the insane conceit that Arnold Schwarzenegger is the underdog. That a stretch. Also with Linda Hamilton, Edward Furlong, and Joe Morton. Effects by Stan Winston and many, many others. -Terrence Rafferty
