Advances in computer graphics have allowed movies to be shot mostly or even entirely on digital backlot (I'm looking at you, Sky Captain and Sin City) - but how about actors?

As you can see from this compilation of CG artwork over at DP Shots*, it's not inconceivable that we'd see films made entirely without human actors. It's probably the next stage in the evolution of animation.

*Yes, it's of girls (don't worry, completely SFW) - some of the artwork are so realistic, at a glance, they can be mistaken for photos.
