Much as I deplore overblown CGI-fests myself, I can't say I'm terribly impressed by the article, Mith. Too much of it just seems to be the writer airing prejudices, rather than speaking from experience. For instance, he makes no specific criticism of Nolan's "Dark Knight" series (the main target). It's just "comic book film = stupid". Now, even if you loathed a film you'd actually seen, you'd have more to say about it than that, wouldn't you?

And again, "You can sum it up in one word: computers." Actually, no. Concentration on CGI at the expense of everything else is bad, of course– but the thing itself is a tool like any other.
