Quote - > Quote - Expecting all CGI to go for the photorealistic look is as silly as expecting all traditional animation to look the same, or all comic artists to draw the same.

Photorealistic is not synonymous with 'good quality', creativity or innovation.

Where I think it falls short for my taste is in character texturing. Some are nice and sort of creative. Like what I can see with storm troopers and spaceships and couple of environments in the trailer.
Others, whom seem to be important characters in the story are bah humbug too simplistic, like they spray-painted a clay model instead of texturing a character, or like the character developer had a creative block.

Just look at Final Fantasy:The Spirits Within and you'll get the point. It was the first animated feature to attempt photorealism and from that standpoint it was a technical milestone. But the movie bombed in the box office because its story was a letdown.
