That is pretty accurate. I vaguely enjoyed a number of those Dreamworks films in passing, but Pixar are in a different league.

Full resupply in McMurdo Station, Antarctica
'Time lapse from the Summer Resupply in McMurdo Station, Antarctica. Video is from the Ice Pier in McMurdo Station. First the Coast Guard comes in and breaks up all the ice, next is the research vessel, the cargo ship and last is the fuel ship.'
Edit: watch muted as the music adds nothing

A libel law condundrum
tl:dr - Le Carre called a Marxist academic under the control of MI5 'Hobsbawn' in A Perfect Spy. The real Marxist academic Eric Hobsbawm was miffed. He never brought a libel action, but what would have happened - it's such an unusual name and the Marxism is correct that the jury would struggle not to see this as identification. But is it libel?

Google single letter searches 'B'
B or b is the second letter of the ISO basic Latin alphabet. It represents the voiced bilabial stop in many languages, including English. In some other languages, it is used to represent other bilabial consonants.

couldn't be arsed to watch the whole thing
but from the intro it seems he's operating under a misapprehension. CGI is very very good at rendering 'real' objects, but still fails to render human faces 100% convincingly - look at the cgi faces of leia and moff tarkin in the rogue one movie. accurate micro-expressions on human faces is the stumbling block and that has yet to be conquered.

One major problem I notice is the mo-cap doesn't pick up on tension in facial muscles
Which can be pulling in two directions at once. Without it, speaking angry faces look particularly unconvincing.
I think they're a bit lazy and don't apply momentum well to the models either; too busy trying to match the motion at speed.

It really took me out of the moment when those two appeared :(
The young Arnold in Genisys was reasonable but not perfect. Also, I'd have liked that film better if they'd bothered to make a young Paxton punk.
Of course the danger with all this is that once CGI becomes indistinguishable, actors will be forced to sign away their likeness rights and full body scans will become mandatory, and then the studios will churn out decades worth of shit sequels to anything that does well, hanging textures onto mocap of minimum wage agency actors.
