10 Worst Moments Of CGI In Jurassic World

9. The Tiny Bird After That

Steven Spielberg has a lot to answer for. Harrison Ford was originally in talks to appear in Jurassic World in some capacity, but his faith was so shaken by Spielberg's return to other previous franchise Indiana Jones that he dropped out. Thankfully, this wasn't a disaster anywhere approaching the level of Crystal Skull, but some bad tendencies remain. For some reason, a major part of Crystal Skull's opening involved desert gophers watching the action, rendered in some wholly unconvincing computer graphics. Jurassic World has a similar goof once that egg bits gotten out of the way €“ a three-clawed, scaly foot smacking down on the snow. Sike! It was a bird, you imbecile! A bird which, for some reason, also had to be rendered in CGI. Because...there's a shortage of common birds in the United States? Because the stamping requirements couldn't have been met by a real bird? Regardless of the reasoning, both its stomp and flight away from the camera look properly, gopher-level shoddy.
