What older movies made a good use of either side stepping special effects or have effects that somehow still hold up today? Why are they good movies?

I watched the Netflix series and then the Making Of show about it. Apparently they tried CGI gelflings to cut costs and just couldn’t live up to the puppetry, so eventually Netflix relented and gave them enough budget to match Henson’s original quality.
The series was a solidly decent story, but the production was spectacular. The practical puppet effects are mind-boggling.
It’s really a good showcase of how CGI should augment practical effects, not replace them. Fury Road is another good example.
