I’m pretty much done with CGIed movies. The last couple have been so awful we’ve walked out before they were half over. Almost non-existent story, pathetic dialog, and lame acting.

How about some more movies like “Silver Linings Playbook”? Cost $21,000,000 to make and grossed $132,000,000 at the box office.

Sadly this is what I think of the Hobbit movies following the original LOTR. The original 3 had some CGI but majority was filmed outdoors. I liked the Hobbit movies but was disappointed that they relied on the computer too much.

I think they have gone overboard with computer graphics, and trying to overwhelm us with special effects.

To me, special effects do NOT make up for not having a good underlying story to tell in the first place.
