10 More Terrible CGI Moments In Big Budget Movies

Another superhero cinematic universe that has certainly brought its fair share of CGI monstrosities to life, the DCEU had a funny habit of making its various iconic heroes throw down with villains that seemed as though they'd been ripped right out of a bad video game cutscene.

Wonder Woman in particular has done battle with a few truly terrible CGI creations since making her DCEU debut in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, kicking both Doomsday and Aries' poorly-made asses over the years.

But it was during her $200 million 1984 sequel where Diana Prince came up against arguably the worst-looking big bad in the franchise's history.

After initially having her wish to be more like Diana come true thanks to the Dreamstone, Barbara Minerva eventually decides that she instead wants to be "number one" and an "apex predator".

And you'll never guess what happens? She only goes and transforms into a weightless, clunky cheetah woman, with her fight with a golden-suited Wonder Woman clearly going down in the dark in a bid to mask some pretty subpar effects.

The entire thing felt like what would happen if Diana wandered onto the set of 2019's Cats and started laying into the Rum Tum Tugger.
