Arnold Schwarzenegger returns as the Terminator in this explosive action-adventure spectacle. Now he’s one of the good guys, sent back in time to protect John Connor, the boy destined to lead the freedom fighters of the future. Linda Hamilton reprises her role as Sarah Connor, John's mother, a quintessential survivor who has been institutionalized for her warning of the nuclear holocaust she knows is inevitable. Together, the threesome must find a way to stop the most lethal Terminator ever created. Co-written, produced and directed by James Cameron, this visual tour de force is also a touching human story of survival.

I love the collectors set it is stunning, if I wasnt already marrid I would definatly get down on one knee and ask it to marry me Its about time the best film ever IMO gets the BLU-RAY treatment. Its a shame I havent got a BLU-RAY player really because I would have to fork out for the Collectors edition.

Wow. That is one awesome collectors set. Is that price you posted USD or AUD?

__________________

It certainly is. I believe it's USD as I found the info from a US website.

Ah, okay. Hopefully, if that set comes over here i'll pick it up, if not I'll probably have to order it online or from ebay.

It is an amazing collectors set indeed

Don't worry, it will. I read somewhere that it will come down towards Australia definitely.

I already bought this flick once, and one disc with the uber-annoying Edward Furlong is enough. I like the first flick ever so much more than this one.

This sounds insanely awesome, but I already own T2 both on its first Blu-ray release and on regular DVD, and I just can't afford to buy a third version of the same movie. If I find myself with extra money one of these days and/or see that version on some kind of sale, though, I'll pick it up for sure. Owning that, I'm certain I could sell both of my other two versions of it anyway.

My Movie Review Thread | My Top 100

I have the movie on DVD specail edition, and if I had the cash and a BLU-RAY player I would own the collectors set as T2 is my fav movie. But it is very VERY expensive

The first was more dark and had a horror theme to it. The second was just more pure action, but I still consider the second one the best in the series. It's special effects are still out-standing in today's filming industry.
