** Doubly funny as apparently Skynet makes Terminators go to KillerRobot college first before going out for their first day at work (that, or the good Terminator has finally learned sarcasm).
* HilariousInHindsight: More than 20 years later, the film this ride is based on got a 3D rerelease, effectively making that ''T2:3D''.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: The performance, specifically the original pre-show, which talks about all of the fascinating new technologies that Cyberdyne is working on. Problem is, it first opened in 1996, and it was not updated for a ''very'' long time. Most people watching this pre-show probably have smartphones in their pockets and purses, and various gadgets in their homes, that can put to shame the "advanced" computers and robotics on display. To say nothing of the cameo by Shaquille O'Neal. Universal eventually closed the attraction at the Hollywood park in 2012 partly for this reason[[note]]Though the fact that Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger's years as the Governator had made him a very controversial figure in California also had something to do with it.[[/note]], and in 2015, they finally updated the pre-show for the Orlando attraction to do away with the more dated elements and give it [[EverythingIsAnIPodInTheFuture a more modern aesthetic]]. Not that it helped much; the Orlando version closed down just two years later. The original version is still open at the Japan park for anyone who wants to make like Kyle Reese and go back in time twenty years.
* ValuesDissonance: For the versions of the show that were at Florida and Hollywood, Sarah Connor showed the audience various clips from the ''Terminator 2'' movie in the pre-show, one of those clips being Sarah's nightmare of the nuclear destruction of Los Angeles. When the show was brought over to Universal Studios Japan, the Los Angeles clips were omitted, so as to not remind Japanese guests of the UsefulNotes/{{atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki}}.

** ScrewedByTheNetwork: Universal defended the move of erasing ''both'' American locations that they want to renovate their parks with properties newer and more familiar to young people than ''Terminator''. For the Hollywood location, it was ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe'' while for Orlando it's ''Film/TheBourneSeries''.

i guess they weren't expanding, if they were using pre-existing space.

* SeinfeldIsUnfunny: The 3D effects were the most visually stunning for their time back when this show made its debut in 1996. However, as 3D technology improved and became more commonplace over the course of the 2000s, with James Cameron's own Film/{{Avatar}} considered the pinnacle, T2-3D began to look cheap and primitive by comparison.

* SpecialEffectFailure: The motorbike prop sometimes doesn't work, so the Terminator actor arrives in the present on foot. This isn't so bad on its own, but the motorbike sounds can be heard anyway, and when he and John go through the time portal again, [[AssPull they're suddenly on a motorbike]].
* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: ''T2-3D'' was often advertised as being the first attraction to bring together [[spoiler:three-screen]] 3D footage, special effects, and live-action stunts.
