No I don't, because in those cases the animated characters are very clearly that. What bothers me are the computer-generated figures that *look* like real actors.

I know there is a lot of bad acting out there, but IMO a computer-rendered image cannot convey the scope and depth of a human actor. Somehow, something feels lost... It is hard to explain.

I also agree with Scayde and Gwally. Something is especially missing when stunts are no longer stunts....
