James Cameron's monumental science fiction film `` Terminator 2: Judgment Day ,'' inspired by the famous line from the movie ``I'll Be Back,'' is back in theaters. However, director Cameron is the child of the film revolution. Rather than just showing a revival, they selected the best condition original 35mm footage, converted it to 4K resolution digital data, converted it into 3D, and delivered it as ``Terminator 2: Judgment Day 3D.''


At the time of the original release, it was greeted with a shocking response.



Director Cameron and film technology are inseparable. He is always looking for effective expressions of the latest technology, and Terminator 2: Judgment Day is no exception. When the film was originally released in 1991, CG technology was making dramatic advances in the film industry. ``Terminator 2: Judgment Day'' can be said to be a symbol of this. In this work, the T-1000's smooth deformation of liquid metal was shockingly received. This expression is one of the CG techniques called morphing. Speaking of morphing, some may remember the music video for Michael Jackson's hit song "Black or White," also released in 1991. It's that scene at the end of the music video where the person shakes his head to the music and his face gradually changes into someone else. The technology was originally developed by ILM for the 1988 film Willow , but it wasn't until 1991 that it was widely used in these films and became known to the general public.


Along with the CG, there is something that literally touched the hearts of many people. It's that "Da-dan-dan-da-dan!" that is used as the main theme. Just saying this one word, or just stringing those letters together, leaves such a vivid image that the title of the movie comes to mind. It has been used throughout The Terminator series, and can now be considered a synonym. Brad Fiedel has been in charge of the main theme for the series since the previous film, ``The Terminator.'' According to Fiedel, the main theme for The Terminator was created using analog synths such as Oberheim, ARP 2600, and Prophet 10, but the metal sounds in the background were made by hitting a frying pan with a hammer and recording it with a cheap microphone. It is said that the sound is distorted. It has also been revealed that the metallic sound is inspired by the sound of The Terminator's heartbeat.
