The VFX is where the bulk of the movie budget goes too, so much work to try and make it look realistic. But it is surprising to see how much of this is the real actors and how much is VFX. Gone are the days when practical effects were used to make movies, nearly everything is digital now.
Amazing how during T2 CGI was only in it's infancy, yet with a mix of practical AND CGI and acting, is a far superior movie that stands up today!! RIP Stan Winston.
Definitely! The liquid FX for T1000 were mind-blowing, and still looks awesome. Same goes for the miniature sets, forced perspective and front & rear projection. That's why its one of the most iconic FX movies of the '90s.

Can't be bothered to watch actioners anymore, the plot is definitely an after thought now. CG has it's place but like you say a decent script and some effort at plausible story line would go a long way with people who don't want brainless pap...
Preston Swooper It’s childish of you to think that Arnold will remain a hunk forever. Give me a break! God willing all of us will grow old gracefully and the young will take over more than us.
Arnold: Boss, i'm stomach ache today. Cannot going to set. Can we postpone shooting? Director: Don't worry, we use extra. Borrow ur face. We will edit later. Arnold: Uhhh. Ok, so i'll off for whole week. Director: Sure. No problem. 🤣
Wow! That was incredible. So much work goes into VFX shots to make it look real. Even the helicopter crashing is all CGI. And the blue screen swap outs are amazing. Well done!
And just think folks, the visual effects and stunts in T2 were almost all practical and in-camera. There were very few CG clips. The moral of the story... practical stuff looks real because IT IS REAL.
actually there was a lot of CG in T2 but it was always mixed with practical effects and/or real set pieces. The CGI was a complement, not a replacement.
@@lajeandom I had the old T2 laserdisc deluxe set with a myriad of behind the scenes footage. There were very few CG shots. Most were models and/or in-camera effects shots such as true stunts (full scale and forced perspective tricks), animatronics, and specialized makeup.
@@lajeandom Your mindset is stuck in 1990s. CGI could actually very well replace practical effects and it would also look a lot better. Practical effects are a thing of the past mostly. Doing it digitally is better and cheaper and gives you a lot more control over the final outcome.
Producent: Hey Arnie, do you want to be in next terminator? Arnie: Yes, right Producent: So jusr sit right here and we will just 3D scan your face and this is all. And still we will give you a few millions. Arnie: OK
6:26, Arm getting blown off a solider's body in the helicopter explosion was some hyper realistic details added in that sequence there, wow! Its just a damn pity the film doesn't help such tight details being placed into a rather lackluster movie though!
No its enhanced filmmaking overall, but it is also something as a tool thats tends to be overused by those with little talent and no real vision however! CGI used in the right hands can make good tremendous blockbusters! Sad fact is thats slowing becoming a forgotten art though.
All that work and the end result is often worse than practical effects. So why do they still insist on this crap CGI? Its not doing any good for the film industry!
The only actor that will actually have the balls to do his own stuns for real is none other than Tom Cruise himself. Take an example of MI: FALLOUT. He literally jump off from a cargo plane hundreds of time to get the perfect shot. Flew an actual helicopter and even hanging on helicopter hundreds of feet in the air.
The hyper realism in this movie was insane to watch in theatres. Crazy how much of this was done with VFX. Imagine where movies will be in the future 🤯
You are fooling yourself if what you are seeing on screen is even remotely close to look real. It doesn’t pass the believable test, everyone knows that is a glorified CGI fest.
I respect the VFX artists very much and I really liked the movie, exception to a few things here and there. I understand the criticism, though. It would be way better if practical fx were still being used more and with less reliance on CGI. Nowadays it's complicated ($) to get this ballance, I guess.
Can I ask something? Why is it you feel it necessary to make the thumbnail image for the video something that is clearly NOT in the video itself and, upon inspection, is actually kind of stupid? Like, seriously? Someone is going to stand behind the actor and blow cigarette smoke into a tube and expect ANYONE to think it's a rocket launcher???
Yo, what are you crying about? They are fantastic! "Someone is going to stand behind the actor and blow cigarette smoke into a tube and expect ANYONE to think it's a rocket launcher?" Not a single person would think that, that's why he does it like that. It's exaggeration, it's parody, it's humour. Don't click it when you are so incredibly picky about it.
