Thanks goodness for the existance of this otherwise atrocious 2001 MGM release!

It's strange that the 2007 DVD from the same company (at least the one released for the Italian market) is different from the 2001 DVD. People must have complained for the lack of the original text, or they were preparing a bluray release already.

The 2007 release from GErmany and other european countries hat the text inserts back again. As I read, it was due to the complaints, that the soft subtitles text was... not liked. Also the narrative voice was, at least in the gemran version, missed.

Fans seemed not to like that.

Maybe it is the same master that the italian distributor used for localisation, because of the not clean Temrinator point of view shot they hat tro freeze the image in that scene.
