Studio Canal are doing the UK version and this is the review of what was on the HD DVD version they released. I havent heard of the Blu release being a 2 discer and would doubt there is going to be branching seeing how Fox couldnt do it for a film as short as AVPR. My bet would be the theatrical cut but at least the soundtrack is lossless.

I emailed the distributor a while back (Optimum Releasing) and they have confirmed that this Blu-ray will be the 148min Director's Cut.

I replied and asked for further detail and got this:

EXTRAS
Bios, trailers, commentary and 5.1.

(Awaiting to get more extras to release a Special Edition.)

Guys i hate to burst your bubble but really a director's cut, i live in the UK & all i've heard is "theatrical, theatrical, theatrical......" Thats why i just imported the u.s. lionsgate release. But anyway whys everyone so jacked up about another re-release of T2 again..... You know Escape From New York is out on blu-ray in the UK that same day! & made by optimum.

Optimum has been region coding their Blu-rays.

Total Recall and Terminator 2 will both be Region A + B. Once I sell my T2 HD DVD I am gonna preorder both.

I just can't let go of my Ultimate HD-Edition.

If Kinowelt re-releases it on Blu-ray, then I might consider a double dip. But that's if the movies aren't region coded.

+1 I can't let go of that one or the French Studio Canal edition with both cuts.

[MR XR5]

what version is that?

It's the French HD DVD release.

By the way... did everyone completely miss my post above? I still have the emails from Optimum advising that the upcoming Blu-ray absolutely *IS* the Director's Cut...

So is this in fact THE ultimate T2 BD Directors cut lossless sound and region free?

According to what we know so far.. Yes, but it has no extras whatsoever.

Rest are here.

Some guys on the blu-ray.com forums have got this already, they took a pic of the back cover and it has both A and B region logos on it.

Also, from the looks of things the menus seem the same as the Directors cut HD-DVD so it may be a direct port over.

I took a chance and ordered from a UK site.

theres screenshots over on avs and from what it seems its still only a bit better than the lionsgate.

the hd dvd version is still superior for whatever reason. i have terminator on blu, t2 on hd dvd, and t3 on blu. Would of been nice to get this. I cant think of a movie other than terminator 2 that I have bought so many times since the vhs days.
