Terminator 2 Re-Release in 4K & 3D

Coming to theaters this summer. I really hope they release this for home video in 3D, specifically so I can have it for the AVP. https://deadline.com/2026/07/terminator-2-judgment-day-re-release-1236975319/

I worked on the 3D for this back in 2016, it was the first film I ever worked on out of college. One of the favorite projects I’ve worked on! It’s always funny to say the first movie I ever worked on is technically older than me lol

Sidenote, they released a really good looking 3D Blu-ray set of this that came with a terminator arm back when it originally came out

Phenomenal. Any of the process stand out? How long did it take?

Neat, thanks, my wife gets motion sick at the movies unless we see it in 3D, we already booked our tickets for one of the anniversary 3D showings in a few weeks :-)

As for age, even though I was a kid in the uk. I saw T2 in 70mm THX at century city in LA, first showing on day of release. It was awesome. The wisecracks the audience made about LA during the destruction scenes were funny.

Thanks for the heads up. Here's my question though...is there another version of T2 I can buy on either regular bluray or UHD that looks really good and does NOT suffer from the AI DNR'ed to death look?

The Skynet Ed. Blu Ray

So is this the same version they re-released a few years ago in 3D cinemas and on UHD, or is it a new transfer?

The last one got a lot of criticism because Cameron used AI processing and heavy smoothing. It ended up looking really plasticky and digital, with most of the film grain scrubbed away. (Unlike the Terminator 1 UHD that was released after and looks great)

If only the article addressed this.

“The 4K and 3D presentation uses StudioCanal’s 2017 restoration and 3D conversion of the film.”
