@mgclgrl @wizardneedsfood That's what happens when "we do a movie, try CGI because it's cheaper and gives us options" becomes "oh well let's make a 200 million $ tech demo, which in turn needs to match a minimum consensus so it has a slight chance to make those 200M$ back". After Flow, I halfway expect smaller productions for a narrower targeted audience to be made (and shown!) but there is still this "animation is for kids" mindset which blocks innovation and variation.
