Quote - ...None of the above mentioned films ever use 3D to depict faces of real human beings correct me if I am wrong and direct me to a trailer.

One that comes to mind is Brandon Routh in Superman Returns. The sequence with him holding up the space shuttle in particular but also the floating-in-space 'listening' shots were medium close up.

(Incidently I think all the CGI for that movie was rendered with 3Delight.)
