Notable can mean many things. Maybe it was high quality, insightful, and provided context for a more artistic scene. Maybe they teased a cut scene that would have radically shifted the tone of the movie. Maybe it was funny. Maybe the director absolutely hated what they produced and is only providing narration because of a contractual obligation and a lot of alcohol.

I am looking to hear about anything that stuck with you in some way.

A lot of people consume content online where director’s commentary frequently isn’t present but I imagine there are still a lot of people who are into this niche.

    AFAIK it’s the Blu-ray “Skynet edition” release.

    Seems like there might be a lot different versions of releases, saw a Collider review which mentions a Japanese version being “somewhat better” and mentions “There’s production commentary from the laserdisc, with 26 participants, and the Cameron and screenwriter William Wisher commentary from one of the earlier DVD releases.”

    On IMDB I saw this mentioned:

    On the ‘Ultimate Edition’ DVD as well as the ‘Skynet Edition’ Blu-ray, there are three versions of the film, albeit only two at the menu, the Theatrical and Special Edition versions. However, highlighting the ‘Special Edition’ option and keying in ‘82997’ (August 29, 1997), will open a Extended Special Edition Option, with the T-1000 searching John’s room and an Alternate ending added on and replaced. Some DVD players may need to push ENTER between each digit.

    In the totally legitimate digital copy it has both of those elements so it’s probably the ‘Extended Special Edition’ [Super Mega Turbo 2000]. I definitely prefer the theatrical ending.

    EDIT: Found this on YouTube
