Exactly.
Guess you said it better than I did. X-men is a good example (IMHO) of a good film with CGI, because you care about the charactors. There is a story there no matter that it is science-fiction/fantasy. Agree about LOTR.

S.Speilberg used a little bit of CGI in Saving prvt.Ryan, but you'd never know it cause it blends in with the rest of the film as to be pretty much "invisible", which is as it should be.

If I were a filmmaker making a movie about the American civil war...and I needed 1000 guys with rifles to run across an open field...THAT is what I'd wanna see through the viewfinder, not a pan across an empty field.
Ah but, those kinda days are long over....never again can we have big-live-action spectacle captured on film. Too damn expensive to have over a thousand "extras" on any film.
CGI can take care of that, but I'd bet some directors are a bit less than enthused about it.
