Lion king was bad IMO bc the animals have 0 facial expressions whatsoever. Like I get they were trying to make them look realistic, but lion king is a story very driven on emotion, so if no one in the film can properly react to anything, then the audience never cares either.
Mufasa: *dead*
Simba: :/
Ok, agreed. It wasn't very expressive but the point of this post was vfx. And though facial animation is part of it, Disney decided to make it look realistic.
In my opinion, they succeeded. But for emotion it would have been better if they had taken an approach similar to Detective Pikachu
Just to name a few
