My problem with inserting modern effects into older films are just that, that they stick out like a sore thumb. I think the worst example of this was the Donner Cut of Superman II. Not only did they insert CGI into a 1980 film, but they inserted cheap CGI and it looked bloody awful. If they could have found a way to do it with CGI but have it look like late 1970s composites then that would have been ideal.
