Special effects are a delicate balance in the world of cinema.  Undoubtedly one of the biggest draws to modern motion pictures, special effects teams must walk a fine line. Special effects that are too modern, slick or clean looking can leave films looking uniform and artificial, leaving audiences hungering for the days of animatronics and models.  On the other hand, special effects that are too obviously low budget can make an otherwise great film look downright ridiculous.
