Computer generated graphics have been a revolution in film making. From a slow start in the late seventies, through the eighties where they were seen as a less than fully practical utility, to the nineties and beyond when they started to become nearly ubiquitous in all blockbusters and even many less [[Special Effects]] heavy films and become cheap enough to appear on TV.

[[Computer Generated Images]] have given us [[Serkis Folk]], extreme slow motion and the only chances at effective screen adaptations of Science Fiction and Fantasy novels. On the other hands, its early days were full of [[Conspicuous CG]], [[Special Effects Failure]] and [[Narm]]. In fact it still is.

[[Computer Generated Images]] have given us [[Serkis Folk]], extreme slow motion and the only decent chances at effective screen adaptations of numerous classic Science Fiction and Fantasy novels. On the other hands, its early days were full of [[Conspicuous CG]], [[Special Effects Failure]], [[Nothing Left to the Imagination]] and [[Narm]]. In fact, it still is.

For this reason some film makers have had a sort of [[Hype Aversion]] to the use of computer generated effects, proudly sticking to [[Practical Effects]] while others have leapt on it as a chance to realise what they were imagining all those years before.
