James Cameron’s epic action, sci-fi masterpiece starring Schwarzenegger in his most iconic role, has been stunningly restored by Cameron himself. First hitting our screens in 1991 with ground-breaking special effects, this version will take the seminal blockbuster to the next level of effects and into the 21st century for a new generation of fans.
It has been 10 years since the events of Terminator. Sarah Connor’s ordeal is only just beginning as she struggles to protect her son John, the future leader of the human resistance against the machines, from a new Terminator, sent back in time to eliminate John Connor while he’s still a child.
Sarah and John don’t have to face this terrifying threat alone however. The human resistance have managed to send them an ally, a warrior from the future ordered to protect John Connor at any cost.
The battle for tomorrow has begun…

One of my all time favorite movie, but ruined by a silly plot hole. Still worth watching

The thing about John Connor vanishing from existence as soon as the Terminator shuts down in the smelter, due to the time existence warp where with 'no more war' Kyle would not exist/or would not go back in time to do Sarah Connor and make John Connor?

if the terminator didn't bother going back in time, Kyle wouldn't either. No Kyle in the past, no tango with Sarah, no john, so if there's no john, there's no hero, terminators would have won. So really, the terminators cashed their own extinction.
Or how can john be born in the first place if his father is from the future. Camron should've kept it simple and not tried to be "clever"

Or James Cameron should have kept this ending

Unless judgment day, the building of a time machine and Reese going back into the past is inevitable and cannot be stopped or prevented (stop one company building skynet and another one steps in)

Watch the original film again. Sarah was seeing a guy before the the events of T1 and due to see him again later, so Kyle doesn't have to be the original father of John.
In T3 the whole point of T2 was to stop John getting with Kate. Which would make sense that the same was true for T1.
Honestly outside of original 2 the only Terminator media worth watching is TSCC and Salvation.

Waiting for a review of the transfer first before buying, but nevertheless a good price, heat!

It is true 4k see review here but looks like region A1 (America) from Wow
It was shot on 35mm which means it's technically 4K yeah but it all depends on the transfer, Goodfellas was shot on 35mm and the 4K release for that is atrocious

All 4K discs are region-free. However, If you get a UHD+Blu-ray boxset then the bundled Blu-ray will be region 1.

Seeing this in the cinema on Tuesday :smile:

I'm gonna see it on Tuesday at the cinema, one of my fav movies and was too young to see it back then so can't wait to see it on the big screen. No doubt they will release that version on bluray as well so you might wanna wait for that.
As for the films,1,2 are awesome, and sadly Cameron sold the rights and has said several times its been a big regret as he had ideas to carry the story on. He gets the rights to the film franchise back soon, basically not enough time for anyone else to get a new Terminator movie out before times up. Problem is he probably won't be directing unless you can wait til 2025+ as his doing Avatar 2,3,4 and 5.He did say his got big plans for Terminator as well. I'd love them to bring back the Sarah Connor Chronicles ideally on something like Netflix so more budget, longer time to write the story,10-13 episodes, no network restrictions and Lena Headey who will be free by then

How is the difference compared to the best Blu-Ray restorations??? Yes a few their are - however similar.

FYI, It's gonna be a Region A Blu-Ray but the 4K disc should be fine, Not sure about Digital, depends on what Fox use as a platform.

I think the code will be for an Ultraviolet copy through Flixster, I don't think a US code will work for a UK Account though

I have a US Flixster/UltraViolet account and I am able to redeem codes from US and UK. Can’t say for sure that it’ll work the other way around

US UV codes do work but in the past they've used iTunes and those codes would be region locked
