In the 15+ years that CGI has been in use, I have yet to see a single CGI effect that looked even remotely realistic. Not one.

While I'm here:

The Matrix SUCKED
Spiderman SUCKED
LOTR completely SUCKED

...and I won't waste any additional keystrokes on the suckiness of the 'new' Star Wars movies. We all know they sucked.

What do all of these films have in common?
(besides over-inflated hype and huge budgets)

You guessed it: BAD CGI (as if there is any other kind)

...I take that back. CGI is great when it's used for something that's supposed to look cartoony. Toy Story and Tim Burton's 'Nightmare' come to mind.

But when CGI is used to emulate photo-realism it ALWAYS fails... Miserably at that.

I guess I wouldn't mind so much were it not for hoards of people telling me how great it is. It's not.

Seriously, CGI sucks!
