The CGI dampens it a bit though - people say it is the only way to achieve certain things (in this case, make snakes attack people without making snakes attack people) but I'm not sure that should give a green light to everything.
Films will be made very soon where the reliance on CGI is more significant than the film itself - this is very bad. Computer games should be the only entertainment allowed to throw so many pixels around, since they are interactive in this way. Go to a light/laser show if you want to see such flash, and leave movies with their rubber and latex monsters and prosthetics.
