I too question whether mo cap is at the point where it can capture micro movements of the face. I would think so but perhaps it is more work and more money than it is worth. I dont know.

It seems that overacting is currently the only way to bring life to CG characters. Golum is an example of that. He is overacted and it is fitting for the character. Same goes for Andy Serkis’ portrayal of Caesar in the contemporary Ape films. In contrast, Snoke looks somewhat wooden. CG does not seem to capture subdued performances well.

They can get very fine detail now.
