I'll have to give the Jungle Book a watch, then, and see what I think, but I usually tend to think creating whole new world out of scratch is much more interesting than just tweaking the existing one.

Maybe this doesn't fall under visual effects per se, but the series hasn't had a space battle that good since Return of the Jedi.

Word. I thought the ROTS space battle was lacking. ROTJ battle was awe inspiring, especially considering CGI wasn't yet available for that sort of detail. The only remotely cool space battle I've seen since was the Dominion War bit in Star Trek DS9.

How cool was it in R1 when Vader's SD came out of hyperspace and smashed into the fleeing rebel ships?
