Chase scenes built on CGI, like anything Matrix-like, don't count, sorry.

[/ QUOTE ]why? no matter what you thought about the matrix movies, you have to admit the highway scenes were sweet. and its not even like the majority of the scene was CGI

What? The majority of the Matrix entirely was CGI, not just the highway scene.

I'm not here to diss on CGI -- when done well, it can look really good. When done poorly (um, anyone for 2 Fast 2 Furious?) it's so blatantly cheesy as to be laughable.

But the reality is, anything CGI isn't really happening, so it's not a real chase at all. That doesn't mean it wasn't a decent scene in a movie (which it was), but no, it's not even a real car chase, so it can't even really be considered as one of the best car chase scenes.

+1 on the original Gone in 60 Seconds, though.
