    T2’s villain wasn’t CGI?

    Not always… They had an amputee play him when he was being frozen near the end there and his leg and hand breaks off… They shattered a frozen mould of him for the next shot… A few times he is played by acting twins… So for instance, there’s two Sarah Connors at the end, and John has to decide whose the evil twin?.. Well turns out Linda Hamilton has a twin sister, and she played the evil T1000… And same for the portly redheaded security sheriff’s deputy in the psyche ward.

    …also they used special rubber chrome squibs when he gets shot by bullets… Those hits are not CGI surprisingly.
