Here's something I wrote about the Terminator 2: Judgement Day disc: https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...2754#post62754

In summary I think it looks very good on the daytime and studio shot scenes, but the image was blurred to hide the grain in the high film-speed (ASA) shot night scenes. <-- But I see that happening in other titles too,
so I guess the modus operandi for some colorists is: mantain the grain constant by lowering the sharpness of the transfer in grainy-stock shots.

Instead of what it should be which is: mantain the sharpness constant throughout the film even if that makes grainy-stock shots, well um, grainy, which is what high definition and additional resolution and sharpness is all about: seeing all that there is on the negative.

Deci Note to colorists: If I wanted the image blurred to hide the grain and polished to oblivion, I could have bought the DVD ya know. It does that automatically.

In any case Terminator 2: Judgement Day BD is the best version I've seen of this movie on video (see shot of Sarah Connor on the desert bench looking at the Terminator before she dreams, for example) and it would be all good, if those night shots didn't look.. "smooth".

I'm happy with the disc of the theatrical, while we get T2
