I don't know that. Amazing!

Neat!

It was the horror-anthology movie "Nightmares" from 1983, which also featured a giant rat. The segment ""The Bishop of Battle" has, I believe, the first fully CGI character in a feature film.

What about TRON? But maybe that's not officially CGI in the way that yous guys is talking about it.

A-, would be an A but saying Jurassic Park came out at the same time as this was laying it on a bit too heavy.

Yeah, Guardians of the Galaxy was in between and was way better than both, at least according to the Wikipedia.. "In 1988, following his mother's death, a young Peter Quill is abducted from Earth by the Ravagers." 1988 was a good year for CGI :)

baby you aint even trying any more

Who me or the CGI?

nah, oddy's weak trolling. i cast a weary and wet eye on the days when he actually upset people. siiiiiiigh.

I saw it a couple of years ago, it holds up pretty well. The critics who complained that the second half devolves into "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom in Victorian England" weren't wrong but that's still pretty entertaining, and the art direction's pretty great for what it is. It's one of the best big-studio family films of the 80s as far as I'm concerned.

This movie gave me nightmares when I was a kid; it's actually one of my first memories of a movie. I must've been four, or whenever it came out on VHS and we watched it at some sort of holiday party with people that had a big screen. I can't remember what the scene at the end was about but I do remember crying a bunch. I need to watch this again.
