I loved the Spawn character, and if you take the CGI out of it, the movie wasn't bad. This is one comicbook character that could use a re-boot, a la Chris Nolan.

I'm going to have to agree with this. It's like they ran out of money right before doing the CG work at this point of the film.

It's funny how Spielberg said they hardly used any CGI in Indy 4 when in reality the entire movie was CGI. I hate to even talk about this movie because it makes me so mad how this movie doesn't even stylistically belong with the first 3. And on top of the fact that the CGI was quite bad in certain scenes, the movie itself sucked.

Ya I remember reading that too. I think maybe that was said before a lot of post began.

A Sound of Thunder...
Had the potential to be a great movie based on the story used, but man it looks like they left all the CG to the end and ran out of money to do so.

I concur. I think CGI is used way to mcuh today. It should be used to enhance a movie, not make a movie (there are exceptions to this, but generally speaking)

Yeah, I Am Legend was bad at that. Everyone walked about of the theater saying, "The zombies looked really fake."

I thought they used too much CGI, and not enough character development in "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen."

Am I the only one who thought the robots especially the twins in Transformers 2 were bad in the Imax scenes. They just looked cartoonish
