Why does the T-1000 in the Galleria Mall look at the bronze statue like that?
In the fight scene with the T-800 at the Galleria Mall, there is a scene where the T-1000 looks at a bronze-like statue. What does the slight grin on the T-1000's face mean? Machines don't have feelings, so this seems a bit strange to me.
Both samples points to the same scene.
Best Answer
This is simply a scene of irony.
The liquid terminator sees an effigy of itself made by human (the mannequin), while its there with the mission to kill all humans. (Ofc indirectly via time travel magics) This is meant for the viewer, not the terminator.
There is certainly no smirk in that photo. Though maybe there is an internal one.

Did the t1000 know about the t800?
The T-1000 didn't know it was a Terminator. He emptied the gun clip at him on first encounter. If he already knew, then he'd knew the T-800 was bulletproof and wouldn't bother firing. And no he was shooting for the Terminator as he shielded John, not directly at John.What year did the t1000 come from?

Answer 2
Possible explanations:
T-1000 was looking at it in order to check if it was another T-1000 which could help in catching John Connor.
T-1000 was scanning it so it could transform into the bronze statue in the future if it needed it.
