CGI is pretty cool when used with a light hand.
When an entire film is CGI? I think it stinks on ice.
Animation captured subtlety of human emotion better than CGI does.
The bottom line is that you still need an actor to convey to the CGI animators what works.
I doubt CGI animators will ever replace actors entirely.
You might be right. However, it would not hurt my feelings if the Hollyweird crowd stopped getting paid millions for craptastic performances.
Artists have been replaced by engineers, no, not even engineers because engineers design things, these are CGI code monkeys. I'm so sick of seeing the same recycled CGI in film after film and the sameness of the characters. The lead in "EPIC" looks like re-used CGI from "Rise of the Guardians" (Jack Frost). It's tiresome.
