Favourite Films

I was just thinking about wanting to watch a film tonight and I thought I would love to see 'The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe', I love listening to audio books because they let me use my imagination but that film was awsome.

Just curious about what other films/Animation o TV series people have watched that have a CG elemet and they found impressive. Oh and what's teh worst you;ve seen so I know what to avoid lol

1. Advent Children (Final fantasy)

im not sure about CG movies but i know a film that has only one CG generated effect, everything else was "organical"... and i cant even believe its not CG.
the movie is The Fountain.

TV show with CG (more or less): LOST. ive been watching since the very beginning and I still dont get what the heck's going on . its very misterious.

CG movie:
Shrek 2
Cars was cool too

with CG:
probably cars, which is quite funny, but mainly interesting because i visited a very cool pixar exhibition in the science museum in London (i believe), with lots of original drawings and artwork from many pixar animations, including cars.

cool, but no CG:
Fight club
pulp fiction (funny!)
lucky number slevin (yes, not 7 )

probably more, but i watched these recently.

not really films, but cool:
Band of brothers
Prison break

One good non cg-film is Hunted. I watched it now for 7 seven times or something like that.
.. Well cg-films .. "The Wild" was really cool and funny, it's a child film, but that doesn't matter i think. The qualitiy decides. And the quality of this film is amazing, the effects are pretty stuff ^^.

And at last another childfilm: "Over the Hedge"
The Bloom and Hdr effects rock like hell, i wanted something like that in my scenes, but thats another topic.

Crank - It's so chaotic :]

will have to watch that one, just watched 'The Illusionist' fantastic film, the opulance in architecture was perfect, not my favourite period of history, although I know it very well, but I still loved all the cg that was in it.

watch it, although it has some romance of course hahahaa
