James Cameron’s iconic 1984 action movie the Terminator starring Arnold Schwarzenegger celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, and that means new Blu-rays are on the way. Specifically, a standard 4K Blu-ray and a Limited Edition Steelbook 4K Blu-ray are set to drop on November 19th, and the latter includes some really fantastic cover art. First announced back in August, pre-orders for the Steelbook edition sold out quickly, but they are back in stock now with the release date right around the corner.

Terminator’s Iconic “I’ll Be Back” Line
In a recent Arnold Schwarzenegger documentary on Netflix, the actor and James Cameron revealed that they had differing opinions about what the Terminator should say in his big moment. Schwarzenegger wasn’t a fan of what was in the script.
“Sometime in the middle of the shoot, we’re doing this police station scene. The line is, ‘I’ll come back.’ It wasn’t meant to be like a big moment at all,” said Cameron. “It was literally meant to be, on its face, ‘No problem, I’ll come back.’ For some reason, Arnold didn’t say, ‘I’ll come back.’ I said, ‘Well, just say I’ll be back. Keep it simple.’”
Schwarzenegger then explained that he felt something like “I’ll be back” wouldn’t make sense for his character because he’s a robot. He felt that “I will be back” would be more robotic and closer to what the character would say.
“And he says, ‘Are you the writer?’” Schwarzenegger said. “And I said, ‘No.’ And he said, ‘Well don’t tell me how to f—ing write.’”
Of course, Cameron was right all along, as that line continues to be one of the most quoted movie lines in film history.
