Man, if games today had graphics the level of WoW's original CGI trailer then I'll be one very happy man let alone making WoW's original CGI trailer look bad.
Some great examples of amazing FMV's from back in the day, I remember being flawed by so many during the PS1 era. I do however remember the one form FF9 where Bahumut attacks the city and destroys Alexander (Been years since I played it so names might be off), it was the most amazing thing I had ever seen.
When I was young I would keep making a new save file for KH1 just to see the CGI opening over and over. Blew me away back then and even today I don't consider it ugly at all.
There are tons of better examples here already, but I'd have to go with MediEvil for my 7 year old self.
It hasn't aged well, but the art-style is still endearing to me. With the graphics and image quality of platformers coming out this gen, I think MediEvil's art-style would really shine if they stylized the game-play to look like a certain Henry Selick film.
