Ultimate guide to T2

The recent release of the heftiest special edition DVD yet is leaving people baffled: how to approach the immense wealth of material on offer? How to avoid the sometimes repetitive content available on this excellent release? DVD Breakdown offers you the Ultimate Order for tackling the Ultimate T2 DVD Edition.

  1. Watch the featurette 'The Making of T2' (on disc/side 2) to get yourself warmed up for the movie
  2. Watch the the theatrical release (on disc/side 1) and let the picture and sound quality blow you completely away
  3. Watch 'More Than Meets the Eye' (on disc/side 2) to see the deleted scenes with commentary and explanations why they were deleted
  4. Go to the Data Core (on disc/side 2) and run 'Full Implementation'. This starts the full story behind the movie divided into 50 chapters. Most people should be able to handle four or five chapters at a time. Some chapters are longer than others but all are interesting.
  5. Over the course of a week or two, keep going back to the Data Core and access the Data Hub to find the chapter where you'd left off.
  6. Once you've worked your way through the entire Data Core, browse through the rest of disc/side 2 for the trailers, 'The Making of T2:3D' and whatever other hidden items are left to be discovered.
  7. Go back to the movie and watch whatever version you prefer. You can turn on the audio commentary track, but you've already heard everything that is said there in the Data Core.
