Hi, please help me with my dissertation! I am exploring the debates surrounding the growing use of Computer Generated Imagery in filmmaking. I need to know your views on the subject. When does CGI 'work' in a film and when does it not? Are modern actors under threat from computer generated created characters?
Which Terminator film do you prefer and why? Does Terminator 3 rely too much on the effects and forget about the imporatnce of the story? Any other views regarding computer generated images in films will be greatly appreciated!

1, because Arnie is bad, it's all about the nasty machines and not so much about nice Arnie, and the atmosphere is constantly tense. 2 is great though.

And 1 wins because of the terrible SFX when they are being chased into the metal plant thingy.

No, I don't think so. Actors will always [i hope!] be stronger than computer generated characters. It's also easier to fancy real actors rather than computer generated.. :^)
