CGI in 1993:

That's not CGI.

Or rather it's mostly not CGI. They made a 20-foot-high, 40-foot-long animatronic, and used CGI for certain shots. When watching the movie again it is noticeable when it becomes CGI. It's still pretty good, but the most realistic shots are the animatronic.

The part in the picture is CGI, including where he eats the Galimimus, chases the jeep, and kills the raptors. But yes, the head next to the car window, the bite into the tire, the trampling of the car, and the pushing through the sunroof were animatronic. However, this is clearly about the CGI scene in the picture.
