All animation flicks like Pixar are not trying to achieve "photorealism" like a live action movie is. Animated movies (even the more adult ones like Wall-E) will always want to maintain a certain level of cartoonishness. Which brings up another subject, what are movies like Beowolf?? Is that still animation??

What about Lord of the Rings?
I'd much rather have CGI than Muppets.

That's funny. I've only seen the trailer, and that was my first thought: "The Matrix has already been done, but I'll be this one is sluttier."

haha....hilarious.
and that in a nutshell is the problem. I miss the old costumes. Hellboy II is a throwback to that era. Tons of costume work in that flick.

I believe Beowoulf was captured so it was basically live action with animation draped over it. I could be wrong, though.

Well, I would certainly say it has it's own category. However, if pressed, I'd say it's animation. Reason being is they aren't inserting images into an otherwise live action frame. Instead, they're draping over the entire frame. Thus, animation.
