A better question would be Weta versus ILM. My vote would go to Weta.
Read ALL THE WORDS in the thread title - "Who Makes Better USE of CGI?", not "Who Makes Better CGI?"
You're arguing technical issues - who's better at performing the task. The real question is an issue of creative decisions - WHY they were using CG when a model or set might have sufficed.
I'll go with Spielberg. He uses CG when he NEEDS to, not because he WANTS to.
