No one is going to go. Anyone who cares to watch this today already has it on their big screen TV via blu ray

reply

Why would I bother watching it on Blu Ray when I still have the VHS that I recorded off of HBO back in 1997?

reply

Nobody uses VHS anymore

reply

I do and the quality is just as good as you would get from Blu Ray. Also if you just record it from HBO or Showtime it's free. You also don't have to worry about a Blu Ray Disc resetting and you losing your place.

reply

No VHS quality is as good as the blu ray. Impossible. Plus who wants to rewind and fast forward with a tape

reply

VHS quality is just as good as Blu Ray and nothing you say will change my mind. You’re wasting your money buying blu ray disks.

reply

I know more about this stuff than you do. So trust me when I tell you, there is no way a VHS tape is of higher quality than a blu ray

reply

You're trolling. It's been scientifically verified that VHS tapes have better quality than Blu Ray and with VHS you don't have to worry about losing your place. Rewinding isn't a big deal.

Link please?

Either a troll or one of the dumbest people in existence - Poe's law strikes again. (it's a troll though, fyi)

reply

Unsubstantiated assertions are just that.

reply

yeah, on a 13" monitor all forms of media are reduced to the same garbage detail

reply

Try not to watch those VHS too often. VCRs are no longer manufactured. The only ones you can find are in goodwill, swap meets, ebay, and foreign countries.

reply

60 inches doesn't compare to a movie theater screen.

reply

Yea but you will probably get Covid if you go to the movie theater

reply

Are you seriously still afraid of such a harmless virus ? Please stay home and out of the way.

reply

The virus is still mutating. Stay away from theaters in the mean time

reply

I got Covid and I didn't go to a movie theater. I just proved you wrong.

reply

But you got Covid from someone who was just at a movie theater. So I just proved myself right

reply

No I didn’t, I was not around anyone who had been to a movie theater. I keep track of who I come into contact with and I document it.

reply

I saw this on the big screen with my dad first time around.

reply

I was 4 months old. Wow, it's already been 40 years.

reply

You saw this in a theater at 4 months old?

reply

I can top that, I wasn’t even born when this came out so I saw it in a theater when I was negative 8 months old.

reply

That doesn't count.

reply

Lives that haven’t been born yet Matter

reply

When it comes to whether or not one has seen a movie in a theater, the baby must be out of the womb. You never saw The Terminator in the theater

reply

But I identify as someone who saw the movie. You should respect my life choices.

reply

Oh My, identity politics have run amok within you liberals. Sorry but I don't respect liberals and their identity politics

reply

Not respecting what I identify as is literally violence. You are no better than that demented psychopath who tried to murder Trump.

reply

You are identified on here as QueenBob

reply

I told you not to call me that, and no I don't identify as "QueenBob" therefore that's not my name.

reply

Frightening. I remember it like it was maybe 10 years ago.

reply

Great, so we can see firsthand what new horrors of AI manipulation and digital noise reduction Cameron has unleashed on this poor film, just like his other recent "4K" releases. Dude needs to be medicated at this point and the reins taken far away.

reply

Not since George Lucas has a filmmaker so badly abused his own creations.

reply

Very true, though with Lucas it's even worse because he relegated the unaltered OT to a garbage, non-anamorphic DVD extra and we haven't seen it again since.

There's at least a few Cameron releases on standard Blu-ray that are acceptable, but who knows if we'll ever see a proper 4K of these films after his recent massacres. He's obsessed with digital shit, and that's okay if you're only making digital shit, but leave the classic 35mm films alone, ffs.

Lucas, Jackson, Cameron... it's disturbing how they've all gone down a similar path.

reply

John Connor was killed while still young and replaced in the most recent entry of the series.

Thus rendering the previous entries meaningless.

reply

or just renders the last movie meaningless

reply

Yes, ignore the last movie, and then the good movies matter again.

I like the way you think. If only people like you ran the studios.
