Ugh, just when I thought I could finally close the book on this Terminator sound mix ordeal lol. Just went and checked my go-to version of T1 (a certain version someone here made for us mono-mix lovers) and checked the scene in question. It’s the first link.

I’ve also seen clips of T1 where the picture was much brighter. I think it was mostly BTS specials that were showing some of the film. Would love to know the story on that one.

I swear, this whole ordeal is making me wanna do something I did with “Dawn of the Dead” when I was 16. I bought every VHS release off ebay, juss trying to find the differences (Joke’s on me, had I waited 4 years I could’ve gotten all 3 versions in the 4-disc DVD set, lol). Now I wanna buy every VHS version of T1, and heck maybe venture out into laserdisc as well. Heck, lately I’ve been buying a lot of the older “1st run DVDs” of my favorite movies before they were “remastered” (ie: tampered with).
