That's how I feel too. One thing I didn't like about T2, the T1000 never should have been able to travel back in time. In part 1, Kyle tells the police that non-living matter cannot go through the time machine. The T800 model could only go through because, while a machine, he is surrounded by living flesh & blood and can thus fool the computer's sensors. The T1000 had no flesh and blood. He was made entirely out of liquid metal. Therefore there was no way the T1000 should have been able to go back through time. At the very least they should have come up with some sort of narrative for it, like his illusion technology that made him appear human allowed him to fool the sensors. Or maybe he used a newer, more advanced time travel device, while the resistance fighters had to send Arnold back using the older model. But then if that were the case, why did the T1000 show up naked?
Anyway, despite the flaws with the writing I still love the VFX.
