Do you feel that way about animated characters taking major roles in full length films? Because that's been going on since the 1930s; possibly even earlier, though I haven't heard or seen examples before that.

I think this is a key point. I know for me, there is a huge difference between watching a movie where I know it is choriography in fronmt of a blue screen and one where there was an accomplished athelete risking his neck to make a scene grab the audience.

I can see it becoming the same kind of draw that stock car fans feel when they go to a race and sit on the edge of their seats holding their breath everytime the drivers touch bumbpers.
Perhaps future movie trailers might include something like>>>


"Including real footage of real stuntmen performing real stunts"

It may come to pass yet that those unsung heros behind the scenes finally get top billing
