because it's ugly.

especially compared to the real thing.

This movie was so fucking bad. Just rips stuff straight out of other scifi films

Honestly Sci-fi movies rip stuff straight out of Heinlein Novels, so...

GODDAMN. okay, i really need to get this on bluray now

TinTin is absolutely stunning in 3D Bluray.

I've been admiring the work of Blur Studios over the past couple months and I'm trying to understand why there haven't been any high-profile animated films shot in a realistic style (to my knowledge)

Have you not seen Rango? It's an animated feature done with a primarily photo-realistic approach, which isn't surprising given it was done by ILM. It won the Oscar the year it was nominated, Tin Tin didn't even make the cut.

Rango is beautiful in its ugliness! ;P

But yeah OP, the studios most likely to pull what you're asking off that have the tech, pipeline, workflows, and years of inherent experience (i.e. the big VFX houses like ILM, WETA, etc) primarily work on VFX for live action films.

I should get the Rango blu ray, huh.

XiaNaphryz, since you worked in the VFX field, what other companies deserve attention that are often neglected in mentions?

 

[ahoyhoy]

Tin Tin is the closest, probably, it really looks mindblowing

... I should watch Tin Tin again

Well, the characters are very stylized, so it doesn't count.

I wonder how much a Blur Studios feature film would cost. They do some incredible stuff.

I thought these characters looked really good during the movie.
