Careful! Some of the scenes you would think as CGI are actually using practical effects. Even a couple of scenes with liquid metal on screen were using models.

What do you mean? The cgi is great, even today. They obviously put a lot of work and effort into it

The ILM documentary on Disney+ talks about the techniques on that movie, super interesting documentary in general.

That CGI looks quite OK, and even surpasses much of "modern" CGI. Have you ever seen "Flash"?

This is considering the effects were done in 1990.

Edit: a lot of what people think is CGI in T2 is actually NOT.
