Most of the CGI in Fury Road is used for the backdrops, not the main focus of the action. You wouldn’t even notice it unless it’s pointed out and you see the real world place they filmed vs what they made it look like with CGI in the film.
Compare that to, say, the crappy alligators in Eraser.

That’s my point. If it’s invisible, it’s done its job.

And that’s my point; back in the 90s, that shit wasn’t invisible. It was used in the foreground, not the background. Practical effects still look better for foreground action.
