Most people in my circles that are complaining about cgi animals are not wanting real animals but more animatronics or puppets. Done right they look 100x better than most cgi you see these days. The dinos in the original Jurassic Park are a good example.

+1
Either spend the money to make it look real or bring in practical effects. I don’t think most people want to see real animals, we just want them to look like real animals. Or monsters or aliens or superheroes or whatever.

NAYRT. This is my preference tbh. I want them to bring back animatronics and puppets. I just think they're so much better at that sense of 'reality', because they ARE real, than CGI. CGI, even good CGI, always looks slightly... wrong.

I tried to upvote you and the other anon because yeah, exactly this, +1 across the board.

CGI animals, for some reason, read as "not physically here" in a way aliens or demi-human characters don't. I think it's something with the lighting on fur textures. One of those things the animators would probably see if they weren't nose-deep on every project highlighting and then tracking every single individual hair.

DA but another +1 to this thread and I've always thought part of the problem was not having something the actors can interact and act off of. People in mocap suits just isn't the same.

Yes!
I don't mind some CGI on them, but you need some physical objects not to hit this uncanny valley effect pure CGI animals get
