CGI as already stated is bad when it's over used. The best CGI stuff is the things you don't even realise is CGI and I'm killing myself here for not having a good example of it! But I've listened to a lot of DVD commentaries where they say something isn't real and you're like NO WAY!!! I think one of the best CGI stuff is where Legolas jumps up onto the horse in Two Towers - amazing. And yes I don't like CGI as it just looks fake and you know it's not real! If it's obviously not present you loose the suspense/scare. Worst CGI I remember was in Space Precinct (SP?) which looked like it was created on an old 48K Spectrum or something. I like in camera effects, they will always look more realistic, CGI has become an easy way out. The Matrix sequels had the worst CGI for such a big movie. I don't know, got nothing against it when it's done well and it doesn't help when you grow up without CGI. Is probably different for people a lot younger than myself who had Jurassic Park when they were young.
