That is what makes T2 a special movie in it's own right. It's one of those view movies that is universally loved. It hits so many notes and hits them all perfectly. The only flub is the 'dramatically swinging a melee object to fake break an important object/kill a person' that I believe is only in the special edition, and should have stayed on the cutting room floor...but that edition also contains Arnold learning how to smile which is pure gold so I guess it evens out.
