I've watched that clip probably a dozen times and laughed every time. They have an entire row of fake mannequin people in the middle of the shot surrounded by lots of real actors and extras. Utterly bizarre.
This is why I don't use the word "content" to describe this stuff. That's the word execs use, and it's because they see this kind of thing as fine. It's just mass-produced product to them.
I had a look as well, and that's gotta be 1995 dancing baby tier CGI. The effects department must be dusting off the old SGI indys because the budget clearly went to Bob's next yacht
To be fair, the actors and extras in those 2 seconds aren't doing much better trying to not look robotic. Some of the CGI mannequins were obvious, but others were less obviously CGI than basketball player 2.
Holy shit they're barely even trying
I thought they might have been doing it in protest because some of the mannequins are clapping off the beat, but then I realized it matches one of the real actors in the front, and now I'm just thanking myself that I haven't watched a Disney movie since I took a gamble on their first SW flick.
