According to Video Store Magazine (3/18/03):
James Cameron speaks!
The director contributes a rare feature-length audio commentary in T2: Extreme DVD, Artisan Home Entertainment’s third disc outing with Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day, one that surpasses the supplier’s two prior editions in terms of transfer and extras.
The two-disc set is due in stores June 3 at $29.98. Prebook is May 6.
Terminator 2 has received a new 1080p high-definition anamorphic widescreen transfer for the Extreme edition, as well as a frame-by-frame restoration that Artisan says makes the 1991 hit look better than when it premiered in theaters.
The version presented in the set is the special edition version of the movie that contains 16 minutes of footage that did not appear in theaters.
Joining Cameron in the audio commentary is co-writer William Wisher.
Special features in the set include an Extreme Interactive Mode, providing behind-the-scenes footage and graphic commentary providing insight into decisions during the film’s shoot.
Other features include “No Feat But What We Make,” a new documentary highlighting T2’s role in the development of digital effects and modern filmmaking; “T2: On the Set,” a retrospective montage that includes rare production footage; “Infiltration Unit Simulator and T2 FX Studio,” a primer on image “morphing” that allows one to graft one’s own head shot onto a T800 or T1000 Terminator; and “Skynet Combat Chassis Designer,” with which one can construct and field-test a Terminator fighting machine.
The movie disc will include a Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround EX audio track and a Dolby headphone audio track.

Will keep the UE too; this is one film I like enough to have 2 versions. I'll just have to watch the movie in from the Extreme disc versus the UE disc, but that disc still has a unique commentary and the DTS track and the different cuts of the movie. Sigh, I'm such a sucker for new transfers and commentaries.
