Amazing writeup! I'll add that the custom squibs they made for the liquid metal bullet impacts are still one of the best practical effects ever. https://www.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/comments/v6qjaj/bu... | |||||||||||||||||

They also used a practical effect for the scenes where the T-1000 needed to appear on screen at the same time as a character it had shapeshifted into. They cast identical twins for the roles. https://www.reddit.com/r/MovieDetails/comments/h9rzry/in_ter... | |||||||||||||||||

It’s interesting to me that people thought/think this was a good effect. I saw t2 in the theaters when it was released and I thought this was the phoniest effect of the movie. It was extremely cheesy, so clearly sitting on top of the actor. They literally looked like aluminum flowers taped on to his shirt. | |||||||||||||||||

Holy shit. I thought the bullet splashes were CGI. I'm even more impressed that they were real practical effects, that is indeed nextfuckinglevel | |||||||||||||||||
