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.

Some cgi is very well done, the plane scene in Superman is damn near seamless.

i still like CGI when it is used to make the impossible possible (dino's ... impossible landscapes, etc)

but yeah, if you can do it convincingly otherwise ... then it hurts the film.

(the CGI blood in the new Zatoichi film being the worst example ever)



the most disturbing trend to me is all of these movies with the blue CGI hue ...

Hellboy
underworld
van helsing
league of extraordinary gentlemen,

etc etc etc ...

there has to be a way to make fantastical landscapes look like natural light ??

Blame the MAtrix. They more or less pioneered the digital wash in those movies. Blue for the real worold and green for the matrix. the green was meant to be offputting.

So did bullet time. Now that Uwe Boll got his stupid hands on it, it is just a cliche crap effect bad directors use to make scenes "cool"
