CGI can f**k off.

Okay, so ignore the pointless re-edit, but get a look at Dick's arms as he falls. He's like the "and it went... wherever I... did goooooo!" guy from The Meaning of Life.

I prefer them old school.

That zip wire bit is brilliant!

Even in Harryhausen films with plasticine monsters, I find that scarier than CGI. CGI cannot affect you on a gut level, because you know it's fake.

All monsters should be made of real actual stuff. Like the werewolves in The Howling and American Werewolf in London.

Invaders From Mars.

CGI is awesome it's just new and overused. T2 and Jurassic Park being examples of where they got it spot on.

I agree and have nothing else to add. :)

Is that because you're enjoying a beautifully rendered CGI sandwich, made up of 15 million polygons, with sub surface scattering on the Ham? :)

Old Godzilla films used to have pretty comical men in rubber suit monsters, funny seeing a big giant lizard throwing punches.

I love crappy effects in movies - I have a few films like Plan 9 From Outer Space, Troma movies etc...but here's a movie I've not seen yet. Wow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nzd0R_OeOc&feature=related

Anyone got any more clips?
