No one will claim that as animatronics are firmly entrenched in 
Hollywood.  JP 1 also used them a lot, particularly visible in the lying 
triceratops, feeding the brachiosaurus and close-ups on velociraptor 
heads and feet...

That's really the bane of CG:  with it you can do exactly what 
animatronics can't, namely, realistic movements.  Unfortunately, that 
also means dinosaurs running, spider-man doing his super-powered jumps 
and stunts etc... all of which are pretty obviously CG because you know 
you can't have that for real, there are no super heroes nor dinosaurs 
around.
