>>>An example of a movie without digital effects was "Crouching Tiger." Perhaps the limitations imposed by the lack of a bank of Sun workstations made the story a little better.<<<

Actually, I believe they digitally removed support wires from the, uh, wire scenes. I don't know if you'd qualify that as "digital effects", I sort of do. But, either way, poorly done digital effects ruin a lot of movies.

Funny/Sad thing is, and I'll often watch a movie and just get obsessed with how bad the computer graphics/effects are. I have a computer science background and a strong interest in computer graphics. A couple friends (with similar backgrounds) and I will goto movies and pick apart the digital effects of a movie. We all agree that when you see digital effects that aren't "supposed" to be seen, it looks really cheesy.

The only movie I've seen so far which I think bad computer graphics would've HELPED is "Godzilla" (2000). Where the original Godzilla's had a man in a rubber suit as it's special effect, having Godzilla a computer generated image of a man in a rubber suit would've IMPROVED Godzilla 2000. It would have at least made the movie humorous. :-)
